Internet and mobile devices are already in the setting though, is the thing. Like they've been there since the beginning.
From the FAQ:
☆ Does Cosmographia have a network?
Yes it does! It is a little non-traditional however compared to some other games though, since there isn't a dedicated community for it ([personal profile] cosmonet is an OOC organizational tool, not a network comm). Instead network posts just go in the main IC community, with the WHERE of the post being "On the network" or something to that effect. A network post is any type of post where characters are not communicating in person, such as through text messaging, a phone call, a video call, or over the internet in general (for example: posting on a forum).
The question is not whether to implement a network because there is already one technically (we will not be changing this into a different type of network, just to be clear... other than maybe giving it a dumb name or something) and it is already used every now and then. The question is whether we want to separate it from the main comm for organizational purposes.
Also I'm actually not sure how comfortable I am with a gem-to-gem communication powers, or at least with it being a thing for everyone (there are characters in their canon who can use a power like this like Rise and Fuuka in Persona). It would bother my character a lot and can still end up replacing face-to-face interaction.
