KOPARA AIR FLIGHT 15
(SYD -> HNL)

[Well, good going, Yurick and Vita. You dun fucked up. Now it's a murdergame. Still, could be worse. It could be a certain screechy female commander in charge, right?

In any case, you are stuck here. It's frustrating, and as time goes by, being here is going to wear everyone down. Not to mention the scent of those damn leis just won't go away, even after you've tossed them aside. The air permeates with it, and combine that with recycled air that only makes things more irritating and pungent, the limited supply of essentials, the limited space even on this large plane, the horrible electricity situation, *and* the threat of the murdergame now ever-present over everyone's heads?

Things are not fun right now. And as time goes by, it's going to only get worse. It's just a question of how - and whether there's any escape before it becomes too much to bear.]


((OOC: Welcome to the week! We'll be doing things a little differently here - we will have a sub-heading for investigations to happen, where players can send their characters of to find clues. Just head over there and use the OoC map to help guide your characters to major clues if you so wish!

Of course, you can always court disaster for your character, courtesy of the RNG, if you so wish! As a result, there will also be a sub-heading revealing everyone's level of injury, which will start at a default number for everyone (except those already injured coming in, or injuries inflicted before the pilot's call!) at the beginning of the week! This can be raised as you see fit to inflict pain on your character - just remember to TAG ANY COMMENT THREAD FOR THE MODS if you want injury rolls! Just don't go too high - your character may not survive if you do!

GOOD LUCK! And remember - have a nice flight!))

[So there's a bigger set of stairs up front, right near Vita's room, and the bathroom. That's... that's potentially a problem. So... if, say, an idiot Texan were to walk down those stairs, probably heading to the left, towards investigation point H...

What's most obvious besides any bodies as one is heading down those steps?]

[strangerpeople]

[Nothing, save that it looks like there's a door there on the left side.]

[illusionarymelody]

[Well, that idiot Texan's wife certainly isn't going to let him go off through some unknown door alone and will be coming along whether he likes it or not.]

k e y w o r d s...

[backuphero]

[He likes it fine! He's just retreating into what he knows how to do.]

[backuphero]

[»GO TO DOOR.

Well, if this were an old text adventure, that'd be the input, anyway. With that in sight, he's target-locked on it. Once he's there...

»OPEN DOOR.? Is it locked?]

[strangerpeople]

[Not only is it locked, it's also protected by electricity. Owie!

Don't touch it for too long???]

[backuphero]

Shit! Ow....

[He glares at the door for a moment, shaking his hand to try and shake off the feeling of getting zapped, and then looks back to Vita, plainly looking for sympathy.]

Don't touch that, it's got... it's live, there's current running through it.

[Yeah, that was probably unnecessary, but... well. Looking back to the door, though... what's the handle look like? Is there an obvious locking mechanism?]

[strangerpeople]

[Yes, but it looks like someone shot at it.]

[illusionarymelody]

[Well, that sure is lovely. Vita will look around the area and see if there is a power source for the current.]

[strangerpeople]

[There is not.]

[backuphero]

[Well, crap. Does it look like it has been completely destroyed, or could it be, if one found an insulator of some kind, pried open?]

[strangerpeople]

[Possibly, yes. But unlikely as it stands.]

[illusionarymelody]

Jonathan, you know electricity still confuses me compared to orbments, so what should we try here?

[backuphero]

I think... if we could short it out somehow, that might kill it....

[Just a crazy idea, but... this is Jonathan. So... how well insulated is the cabin floor, compared to the walls and thus the body of the plane?]

You see any loose wiring?

[He has no idea what he's doing.]

[illusionarymelody]

[Vita looks around to see if there is anything. Then all of a sudden two lengths of barbed wire will appear. Seems she just unconsciously used her power thinking about trying to find a wire.]

Well, I'm definitely not touching that stuff.

[And then it vanishes after ten seconds, of course.]

mods?

[backuphero]

Did you... is that what they shoved on you? What the hell...

[And then, as though there's a cartoon lightbulb popping on above his head - ]

Hey, if you can do that and make it so it runs from the door into something else metal, it might overload the power source.

[Yes, the entire thing they're on is made of metal. But is any of it obviously exposed?]

Re: mods?

[strangerpeople]

[No.

That was a really, really good idea, though. But Kopara Air cares and thinks of everything.]

[backuphero]

[Well, in that case... anything in those three seats nearby?]

If I had the whip I packed, maybe that'd work, but....

[He's just talking to himself, no need to worry too much.]

[illusionarymelody]

I guess it is what they gave me. Rather inferior to even the most basic of arts. [And she's obviously going to keep quiet that her power can be used as a weapon and let's also not get into how the idea of wires bothers her.]

Doesn't water also react to it? At least lightning and water definitely don't go together. Maybe getting it wet would overload it.

[backuphero]

We'd need to make sure we didn't just soak the carpet and get zapped, but that's not a bad idea.

[Yep, he's definitely looking to see if it's possible to stand or crouch somewhere that wouldn't end up carrying a charge, now.]

And... yeah, it's not just a downgrade, it's a downgrade in really bad taste. And I hope the jackass did hear me say that.

[illusionarymelody]

You could put something over the carpet then. [She's also going to look around and see if there are any containers or anything else they could put under this.]

Well I think this guy and Marie would go well together. Maybe they'll be able to meet in the afterlife.

[backuphero]

A match literally made in hell, huh? I like it. They deserve each other.

[strangerpeople]

[Other than the tasers, which are wired to the seats, nothing.]

[backuphero]

[So... those are wired to the seats, huh. How long are the cords?]

[strangerpeople]

[Four inches at the most.]
