regan_tam: (in a crowd)

With a Cortex console, there's no real equivalent of slamming down a phone receiver. Touchscreens just don't slam right, unless you're throwing them across the room, and that makes subsequent calls difficult.

Regan's sharp jab at the screen is a pretty good attempt, though.

"Damn it," she mutters, glaring at the source box.

"Never heard of them, ma'am. Can't speak to that, ma'am. Gŏu pì."

Regan wasn't swearing this much when they started making calls. (Regan, in fact, never swears this much.) But that was four hours ago, with nothing to show for it but frustration.
