J’essica Telemetry, Bug Wrangler
J’essica Telemetry is a grizzled and scarred instance of Jessica Telephone hailing from the year 3280, having travelled to our current time to hunt what she repeatedly refers to as “The Supersentient Insect, York Silk”.
Her demeanor has been described as often surly, and frequently gruff, and she is noted for carrying at least four weapons at all times (bladed, plasma, or otherwise). Extensive cybernetics are integrated with her body, and she is commonly seen scanning, entering and collecting data related to her target in a way previously described as “suspicious and concerning”. Despite this, J’essica has participated in the splort of Blaseball at least once, though her reasons for doing so are unclear.
The Supersentient Insect, York Silk
Despite her unfriendly nature, J’essica is seemingly very open about her target in our world, “The Supersentient Insect, York Silk”. Described as a “just absolutely massive bug”, Silk is described as having a “hypermalevolant criminal record” and a “fully subspaced intellect, I’m talking like whole galaxies here”. Despite such noteworthy characteristics, Silk is purportedly incredibly hard to track down; J’essica suggested Silk may be “doing some body double stuff, I dunno, just absolutely wicked tricky stuff” and that she would “have to get sneaky" herself to find them. J’essica’s history with the Supersentient Insect, York Silk, appears to be somewhat of a sore subject for her: when asked about it she simply pulled out a cigar, took a bite from it, and said “Damn, sure is” whilst looking into the distance.
Hi, not something I necessarily want added to york's page (it's a jessica telephone rumor) but I figured I'd post this here too just in case! Snerkus21 (talk) 21:05, 7 October 2020 (UTC)
Taken by The Shelled One
When York Silk was shelled at the end of Season 8, he was disconnected from the magical time-warping powers of Our Lady of Perpetual Friday, which both keeps the islands in eternal Friday and kept York at the age of 8. When he emerged from his shell to play for the Shelled One’s Pods, his former teammates - and most importantly, his mom - were shocked to see that the little boy they had known was gone, though some witnesses swore that his smile was the same as ever.
The shock of this revelation was temporarily delayed by the attack of the Shelled One’s Pods. Once they had processed the events of Season 9, Day X, York’s former teammates came to regard the tragedy of York’s stolen childhood as another injustice dealt by the Shelled One. The Fridays have not celebrated York Silk’s game 74 birthday since Season 9.
When she was finally able to be reached for comment, York Silk’s mom simply said, “He will always be my little boy, whether he’s 8 or 88.” Jenkatwrites (talk) 13:50, 15 October 2020 (UTC)
