about

The soundtrack to Act 2 of Communication: a text-to-speech opera about old friends reuniting.

Hacked signal: Nethanolio Rosehip-Dunhild attempts to reach Petrilda Pseudohands but is cut off over and over again by rogue signals being pumped into the network. Petrilda attempts planting floristry in her Local Area Network Box (LANB) to clear up her signal, which is similarly afflicted.

Reflection of Cloud City Lounge: Multicolored visions swirl over the network from a mirror universe (see Albino Crow 3: on the journey of a lifetime). An advertisement for the Cloud City Lounge plays over the "R7 RAVINE MONTH CLASSICS BEST ALL TIME" metaradio station that both the old friends were attempting to connect thru.

Was I reprogrammed?: Petrilda questions her sanity as the network shatters. She decides to seek out Nethanolio at the Cloud City Lounge.

Falling on a bed of mallets: Entering what appears to be the Cloud City Lounge, the old friends see each other over and over again from afar. Strong currents of champagne, glass baubles, and glistening cultured pearls stop them from crossing paths.

The tale began in Act 1: Communication Organic.
