Kind of. Wait, are you saying to amplify the signal? I thought you were talking about amplifying the spacial tears… Nevermind. I can try to amplify the signal’s strength, maybe- No, wait a minute.
*Lowers my phone and looks up and down the equipment, squinting as I filter through the noise of the light rays and other stray radiation to see if I can feel the photons from radio signal emissions or anything of the like*

@Audacious

Yeah, like on the scanner your dad gave you.
*Little more than residual distortions remain on the asteroid from the last pulse it received*

@Legend

I can try that too. I don’t mess with electrons all that much, but a little boost can’t hurt.
*Tries boosting the potency of the scanner with as much as I think the device can handle*

@Audacious

*The device picks up on the small fluctuations but lacks any solid tie to another station*

@Legend

*Motions to the areas of distortion*
Does yours give you anything over here?

@Audacious

Nnnnope, nothin'.
*Suddenly an incoming signal hammers both devices at the current level of sensitivity*

*Snaps my gaze to the air following the trajectory the photons arrived from*

@Audacious

I think we found one? Let's try to trace it!

@Legend

Where did it enter from?
*Leaps upward and along its path, scanning the air as I go for a fresh entry point into this dimension*

@Audacious

*It seems to be a wide broadcast without a specific point of entry, but emerging from a distinct other universe*

@Legend

*Attempts to isolate this distinction to give any inclination as to where it lies by analyzing the manner it emerged as best I can*

@Audacious

*The devices don't face any resistance tracking the source of the signal, but the signal integrity rapidly declines*

@Legend

*Uses my tracker to best isolate the location from the given source, and attempts to open a portal corresponding to that info*

@Audacious

*It opens up to the next relay station with no problem*

@Legend

Come on!
*Wastes no time in ducking through*

@Audacious

Nice work!
*Jumps in as well, and this time the next station is on a space debris ring of a multi-ringed planet, the surface of which can be seen glowing with ever-shifting plumes of magma that burst onto the surface with a magenta hue before cooling to a deep red and sinking back down, casting an almost biological rhythm of glow onto the surrounding matter*

@Legend

Thanks!
*Keeps my focus on this station, looking over its integrity compared to the others, and any other standout features*
I just hope it’s not a waste of effort, trying this route.

@Audacious

*This station seems to be sitting amidst the space debris and only anchored enough to protect itself from collisions, and seems entirely intact*
This is exactly what dad told us to do, right?

@Legend

As far as I could tell.
*Starts walking toward it*
I’m afraid we’re being really inefficient though, mainly.
