[SORT OF OPEN] Rescue log!

[drama8om8]

Who: The Alan and Octavia Rescue Team
When: Tonight
Where: Locke City Police Station
What: Rescuing idiots. Running distractions. OOCly weeping at how ridiculously big this got.


OKAY SO. This got a hell of a lot bigger than I anticipated when I asked for a few rescue volunteers on Plurk. Twenty people piling into Mac's terrible car isn't just overkill, it's impossible. So this will take a little restructuring!

The main rescue team - (Karson?) Mac, Chris, Shiro, Danny, Walter and Roxy - will be the ones actually getting Alan and Octavia out. Everyone else is free to:

Join a distraction team

Form a backup offensive team - please be aware that the mods have said that "if it gets loud, the rescuers will encounter a handful of armed police officers. And a handful of unarmed ones." I'm not anticipating there will be much fighting, if any at all.

Back out altogether because I hecked up oh god oh man note to self: never organise anything ever again.

There were several ideas for distractions discussed in the IC distress call post - fax/printer spamming, joyriding past the police station to try and draw away a few cops, instigating bar fights and such in the city and calling in the police over that, creating light shows with freakish past-life powers, etc. There'll be a thread below for potentially playing these out, or they can be handwaved if people would prefer.

BASICALLY I don't want anyone to feel unwelcome or anything just because I got overwhelmed! I hope everyone is okay with this attempt at de-clusterfucking the situation.

Now hang on while I set up some halfassed subthreads hrughhuhghgr OKAY DONE

Yeah, once I was in graduate school I really didn't have time for it but I forced myself to go at least twice a month to keep myself from eating my text books out of stress. It's always better to relax, right? Otherwise you bang your head off the wall.

We could base a board off it.

That's not a bad idea. I'd have to roll up a brand new character, though. I don't really think you want to see the adventures of Enelar the lady paladin. [she smirks at herself, but it dies quickly.]

That'll have to wait until after we get Alan and Tavia out, though. It would be a lot easier if I could just Holy Sword our way out of this one.

[He nods, turning back to his maps.]

Right. I think we have a good chance, Holy Swords or not though.

We have the advantage.
