Your name is Impulse. You are currently standing outside the seemingly-abandoned split-level family home that belongs to your good friend Tango. You have the keys to the house; Tango gave them to you years ago. He said that in emergencies, you are allowed to go into his house whenever you want. You think it's an emergency. Skizzleman thinks you need some sleep. You think you need the police to listen to you, first.
Here are some other facts you know:
The first seventy-two hours of a missing persons case are the most important.
You haven't slept for nearly thirty of those hours.
Tango wouldn't just skip out on one of your board game nights, not even for something important at work.
The police say Tango often goes out of town without telling anyone for long stretches of a time; it comes with his classified job.
He's always told you, though.
"I really don't think this is a good idea, buddy," Skizz says, nervously looking around the front yard as you jiggle the key in the lock. He's come with you, because he's a good friend, and also a bit of a pushover. Because you're also a good friend, you have not told him that it's a pushover thing to do, coming with you to break into Tango's house if he thinks it's a bad idea, but hey, you aren't going to stop him, now are you?
"Relax. He said we could come in for emergencies," you say, jiggling the key again with annoyance. If Tango's changed his locks, you're going to be tempted to break a window.
"I mean, you think Tango's missing, right?" Skizz says.
"Know," you correct.
"Know," agrees Skizz, although you're pretty sure he's just humoring you. It's hard to tell, on account of having not slept in the past day. "It's just, you know, if he's missing, and the police investigate, if we've broken in recently it won't look good."
"I mean, I wouldn't have to do this if they'd just listen to me!" you say. The door finally opens. You stumble inside. Oh, Tango just hadn't fixed the pin in the lock that liked to get stuck. No changed locks. Good.
"Dude, you know I'm with you, one hundred percent, but I think if you just sleep for a moment--"
"I don't have time to take a nap right now!" you say, maybe a bit meaner than you meant to. In your defense, you haven't slept.
You walk into Tango's house. It largely looks normal. Suspicious; Tango's house never looks normal. As you look around for things that might be hidden, you consider additional facts you know:
Tango missed board game night yesterday, but you haven't seen him for at least two days before that.
You live two neighborhoods over; the number of times you run into each other at the grocery store is immense.
You've never liked his job.
The police said not to worry; Tango is an adult.
The first seventy-two hours of a missing persons case are the most important.
"I know, I know," Skizz says, before pausing. "Huh. Where's all his gizmos?"
"Right?" you say. "He normally has so much weird stuff--ow!"
Skizz rushes over to you. "You good?"
"Yeah just--my head hurts."
"Migraines are a symptom of--"
"I know!"
You stand in Tango's weirdly empty living room. You breathe. You try to deal with the sudden wave of dizziness that's overcome you. You breathe. It starts to fade. Your head still hurts.
"Anyway," you say. "We don't have infinite time. Now, if I were Tango, where would I hide proof I'd been kidnapped or murdered or something?"
"Dude. Don't suggest murder already," mutters Skizz, but, loyally, he starts to look around with you. You're really lucky, having good friends like that who can actually sleep.
Another spike of pain runs through your head.
[CONNECTION GRANTED.]
The sooner you can figure this all out, the better.

Strange phrasings and/or things that stood out to me in the @wireman-au
You--try to hesitate and look back--you should call 911--you can't make your head turn around--no, Impulse, don't look back now, you don't want to see any of that. Keep running. Okay? Just keep running.
The gap between you and the rest implies the interruption of a thought - perhaps "try to hesitate and look back" was a command, not something he's actively doing? Not 100% sold though
He's trying to look back he can't make his head turn around he's trying but can't do it. This is more than an emotional thing, he's trying to turn around but he can't make his head turn around.
This part is definitely someone talking to him, not just him talking to himself.
"Run, dude, just--run," you say. Skizz takes a moment before nodding and following you. Bless him; loyal to Impulse to a fault.
"You" ain't Impulse right now
This ain't Impulse in control
Maybe it's Tango?
He only hesitates for a moment at the man at the bottom of the stairs you don't let yourself turn around to look at.
Note the difference here between this wording and that of the prior orange statement.
My current theory as to what's going on (at least partially) under the cut!
We were able to connect with Tango briefly during the fight or flight poll, and he said he was "a little busy right now, okay?". Impulse knows nothing about fighting, but all of a sudden, "Your body isn't honed for what you're about to do. Fine. Being in-shape will have to be good enough. For the sorts of people they probably sent to finish cleaning up, it probably is."
I think Tango's using whatever's in the metal square of the Wireman document to take over Impulse, or at least take brief possession of his mind, or- words are hard, but I think you get what I'm getting at. Why? Maybe he no longer trusts the government project he's a part of. Maybe he discovered something he shouldn't have, or disagreed with an order, and he had to follow through, because he knew too much for them to let him not, and now he's on the run.

Joke theory: the wireman project is just alternate Tango's Decked Out, and he's unavailable because he's busy implementing ravagers

some funky stuff there go read it. imp n skizz. clockers (minus scar). also it's an ask blog but story. also government is being weird. also tango went missing
I HAVE NOT! (Before now anyways) BUT HOLY SHIIIT I JUYST READ SOME OF THE EARLIER POSTS AND I AM SO FUCKING HOOKED OMG I AM BITING THIS AU SO HARD :O
Awww thanks (?) :D !! I can see how they could ‘look’ similar (from what I’ve read so far)
