I'm feeling somewhat benevolent today.
After hearing a combination of your suggestions and complaints, I've decided to share.
You know, health of the community and all that.
For those of you still wildly inept with your tablets, just poke the letters that show up in a different color.

[Attached to this message, (a function not normally available for network posts,) is a link which yields several downloadable applications. Thankfully they're not malware or viruses, but hopefully helpful things, including:

- An app that translates text in images into spoken words. Good for the blind (or the illiterate). As it translates into the universal language of Beacon, it could also be used for deciphering foreign letters. Just snap a photo and you're good to go.

- A drawing app. Not as fancy as photoshop, but you can use your hands to make pretty pictures with a variety of colors and line weights.

- Related: a map app. It comes with a version of the current known map, which can be updated by the community. Shitposting will be promptly corrected. You stop that.

- And finally, a game: sudoku to be specific. Are you good at math and puzzles? Let's hope so, otherwise this will be pretty pointless for you. (This one's for you, Noctis.)

All four apps download together, so you're stuck with them even if you only wanted one. But the file isn't exactly labelled in anything other than random(?) numbers, so I suppose you wouldn't know that anyway.

Have fun, Beacon!]

Ah, so you've made it so that even someone as incompetent as Scorpion can use it.

@dr

[donttalktome]

And Scorpion is who?

[Read: and why should I care?]

[saibot]

Hanzo Hasashi.

[donttalktome]

I still don't know who that is, which means he can't be that infamous of an idiot.
Good for him, though, that he can finally use his device.

[saibot]

He is the one who originally murdered me for unjust reasons. He is among those in this place.

[donttalktome]

So we have a murderer among us.
That's hardly anything new.
Though I'll admit it's rather unusual for their victims to arrive alongside them.

[Sort of... troubling, actually.]

So is he the reason you're here then?

[saibot]

No. But he is responsible for my state. After my first death I was resurrected as I am now.

Much later my body was torn apart by souls of the damned. He had nothing to do with that.

[donttalktome]

What?

[Followed shortly by another message:]

Fine, alright, so you died once before the death that brought you here. Got it.

[saibot]

Yes. Died to Scorpion, resurrected by the Sorcerer Quan Chi.

[donttalktome]

Sounds like you've just had a bad time of it, haven't you?
Is this Quan Chi character here, too?
And exactly how much of a problem is it going to be that the man who killed you is here?

[saibot]

Quan Chi is not here. For that you are all fortunate.

And no. There is no problem.

[Because he'll totally just go and kill Scorpion. No problem at all.]

[donttalktome]

I'm sure we're fortunate that a lot of people aren't here.
Doesn't make the ones who are any more bearable.
So you're not going to go on some sort of revenge quest, then?

[saibot]

Not at this time no. He will die by my hands yes, but not here.

[donttalktome]

Hm.
Good enough, I suppose.
Kill him all you want once we've figured all this out.

[saibot]

I shall.
