Tuning Towers Underground Expedition

Who: Anybody who signed up on the OOC post!
Where: The streets around Tuning Towers, under the streets around Tuning Towers, and Barnaby's apartment.
When: Saturday night, 11/16, around 3AM.
What: The teams head into the sewers and subways, and eventually the Tuning Towers basements, in search of the source of the buzzing. See the OOC post linked above for more detailed info.

[[There is also a public network thread for radio chatter that anyone may participate in. Format is restricted to voice and it's happening at 3AM on a Saturday, but otherwise go wild.]]

[[Alright, here's how this is going to work. There will be separate threads for each group, along with a combined radio chatter thread that is network public. I have been informed that the mods will also put up a subthread for characters on the interference team to run afoul of the cops and get themselves arrested.

Friday night, Ravi made a network post to lay out the plan and the meeting time/place and get last minute volunteers, but I am handwaving this. If you want to say that's how your char found out and signed up, go for it.

This spreadsheet contains a list of specific teams. Most of the exploration squad assignments were decided by dice rolls. If you're unhappy with your squad, you are absolutely free to change it. I only ask that you try to keep the squads roughly even in size.

Characters will be instructed to bring flashlights (red if possible, because red light doesn't affect your night vision), gloves, nondescript/dark clothes, watertight footwear, and whatever else they think they might need. There will be dust masks provided (gas masks are too expensive, sorry y'all). Characters will also be encouraged to bring a small mirror and pre-write most of their network number on it, so that the last digit can be easily added if a live visual is needed. Medics should bring their own first aid supplies.

Aaron and Mordin's teams will be exploring the sewers, and Ravi's team will be exploring the subways. All 3 exploration teams will be converging when the decision is made to infiltrate the Tuning Towers basements. At that point, some coordination with the interference team will be necessary to get Ravi's team out of the subways and into the sewers.]]

[Earlier on Julien made sure to nap in the bed their host showed him to - he set the alarm in his watch - but he's still kind of leaning on caffeine. It is late.]

You're a lifesaver.

I think by the end of this, some of you may be cursing me. At least when the caffeine wears off.

Maybe! I at least am still young. The college years are made for this kind of thing! [he graduated a couple years ago but w/e] Besides, it's better than falling asleep.

You'll sleep well after this if nothing else.
espigeonage: (💘This much I know)

[personal profile] espigeonage 2013-11-18 03:41 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, I'll bet! [assuming nothing horrible happens, anyway.] Kind of hate to sleep through the morning, I've always been early to rise. But, sacrifices must be made!

[Julien blows on the surface of the mug, then sips.]

How about you? How do you like scheduling this stuff?
searchforpeace: ([103] The thoughts that I’ve come to)

[personal profile] searchforpeace 2013-11-22 10:16 pm (UTC)(link)
It's nice being a part of something like this. In the end it's less about scheduling and more about helping the overall goal. I can't say I hate more secretarial work like that though.

That's fair. Organization's not too bad... It's not really my cuppa, but hey. I do like having plans. Backups, contingencies, people who have something they're good at. [Rotating his wrist in a careful, restrained movement, Julien appears to watch the liquid move in the mug.]

We can't operate like we did at that first mine trip anymore.
searchforpeace: ([50] I'm curious)

[personal profile] searchforpeace 2013-11-24 02:36 am (UTC)(link)
[The mention of the mine trip mulls Audrey's expression some.]

It's unfortunate what happened during that. I'm afraid I wasn't in town to witness it directly.
espigeonage: (💕And with the saddest smile)

[personal profile] espigeonage 2013-11-24 04:38 pm (UTC)(link)
Mmm. Well, it was a mess, I'm sure you heard! I'm still kind of surprised no one died but the Sage guy. We found out he was a random homeless man, did you know? Showed his picture around, asked people.

[Julien shakes his head.] Aside from that, some people were hurt but it was the kind of hurt you recover from fine. Someone got lost and left behind, but he came out okay... We were altogether lucky.
