MISSION: RELEASE THEM BACK INTO THE WILD

Date & Time: April 27th - May 1st
Location: Wollongong, Australia, 2464.
Characters: All voluntary transports + maybe a few drafted ones.
Summary: Make those stay-at-homes leave their nerdcaves! My god, do they even know what sunshine looks like???
Warnings: none planned, will be updated accordingly!

The city is old, dark, and very, very quiet. A good deal of the buildings are crumbling and old, but the ones that are actually inhabited glow like candles in the dusk the Transporter has dropped you into. All of these buildings are infested by wiring pouring in from every angle, ensuring that each inhabitant in his or her little block of a room has every modern convenience available in 2464.

There is no one on the streets, no public transportation, and even cars look scarce. But that doesn't mean there's no movement. Maintenance drones, controlled remotely, run deliveries or work repairs. Armed law enforcement drones patrol on rounds through the city, although their mechanized attention is mostly turned outward. Still, they might come to investigate a ruckus within the city limits. And if the persons causing the ruckus don't respond to peaceful attempts to get them to cease, the drones might attempt to subdue them with paralyzing technology and haul them in for a night in the city jail — another dark, unused place.

If you get hungry, there are entire warehouses dedicated to the production of foods. It can't be that hard to sneak in and collect a meal, right? Or you can hack into the system and order whatever you want, if you're good with that kind of thing. Or you can just scavenge—or fast for four days, maybe—if thieving and hacking aren't your style.

And somewhere around here, in those glowing, secluded towers, behind the legions of automated drones, live the reclusive citizens of Wollongong. The methods are up to you, as long as you can get them to come out and breathe the fresh air somehow.

[[ ooc; Mission details are here! This will run from 27th of April to May 1st, with those on the mission returning to Exsilium at the same time that the new arrivals show up. It's an optional mission, but if you'd like your character to go along that would ICly sit it out, feel free to say that the Initiative drafted them for this one.

There aren't any teams or structured threads to this one, so go wild! ]]
acemedium: I couldn't think of anything clever (:D!)

[And we're back to impressed! Everything else has been completely forgotten]

That's cool! Can you do it again?
clinical: (smile when you stick in the knife)

[personal profile] clinical 2013-05-14 05:42 am (UTC)(link)
Hm? Do you have more burgers you'd like me to destroy?

[he's not a show pony okay]
acemedium: I got nothing wittier than that (NO U)

sorry for how late this is!

[personal profile] acemedium 2013-06-01 06:34 pm (UTC)(link)
[HOW ROOD she was ready to fangirl you and everything]

[But now we're back to the protesting. This girl seems to be a whirlwind of mood changes]
No! Not on burgers! On... broccoli or something, that stuff deserves to be destroyed!
clinical: (it's easy when you know how it's done)

No problem!

[personal profile] clinical 2013-06-02 10:03 pm (UTC)(link)
[He can handle that.]

In that case, that will hardly motivate them to leave their homes, will it?
acemedium: she'll beat you up with her noodle arms (Does Maya have to smack a bitch?)

:3c

[personal profile] acemedium 2013-06-05 08:25 pm (UTC)(link)
...We could destroy their chairs! And confiscate their food!

[She says we like she can do it too]
clinical: (light the eyes of all the sociopaths)

[personal profile] clinical 2013-06-05 11:04 pm (UTC)(link)
[He notices that.]

Perhaps we could. Then please, lead the way.
acemedium: (GO GO MSG REFERENCES)

[personal profile] acemedium 2013-06-07 08:07 am (UTC)(link)
[....This may or may not end well.]

[In any case, as long as the burgers are safe, Maya has no complaints.]

[She also has no qualms pretending like she knows what she's doing and... starts off in a random direction]


You're really into this whole mission thing, huh?
clinical: (your structure's fine)

[personal profile] clinical 2013-06-07 08:47 am (UTC)(link)
[He will follow a kid going in a random direction. That's basically what you do in an RPG.]

In fact, I find the destruction of public property distasteful. The Initiative appears to lack any real oversight over its missions, to its detriment.
acemedium: (I don't even)

[personal profile] acemedium 2013-06-12 03:08 am (UTC)(link)
[YES GOOD JADE]

[PS she has no idea where she's going]


You do? Then why are you still doing it...?
clinical: (light the eyes of all the sociopaths)

[personal profile] clinical 2013-06-13 06:44 am (UTC)(link)
I've focused on my own methods, but I thought those robot parts needed to be dealt with.

[So they weren't hamburgers.]
acemedium: (y u mad tho)

[personal profile] acemedium 2013-06-19 07:06 am (UTC)(link)
I guess if they were robot parts..... Wait, robot parts?! Don't tell me....

[........]

They were robot burgers?!
clinical: (light the eyes of all the sociopaths)

[personal profile] clinical 2013-06-19 09:09 pm (UTC)(link)
[....]

Oh, yes. It was a robot burger storehouse.
acemedium: I got nothing wittier than that (NO U)

[personal profile] acemedium 2013-06-21 05:12 pm (UTC)(link)
[Somehow the destruction of robot burgers is okay with her]

They must be really dastardly, trying to disguise robots as burgers...! What could they have up their sleeve?
clinical: (it's easy when you know how it's done)

[personal profile] clinical 2013-06-22 01:33 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, it must be a plan to demoralize the people. What's more disheartening than taking a bite of a hamburger only to realize it is a robot?

[That makes sense, sure]
acemedium: (GO GO MSG REFERENCES)

[personal profile] acemedium 2013-06-27 10:56 pm (UTC)(link)
Demoralize? No, it must be bigger than that if they're resorting to cheap tricks like these! [THAT IS A HORRIFYING IDEA] We have to stop them!!

[And she stops, suddenly. Even though she'd been the one leading them]

Um...
clinical: (we spread our bones across the table)

[personal profile] clinical 2013-06-28 12:47 am (UTC)(link)
Is something wrong?

[Jade knows.]
acemedium: (forgot who was phone WHERE WAS BURGER??)

[personal profile] acemedium 2013-07-01 08:04 am (UTC)(link)
... I think we got turned around. [Even though they've been walking in a straight line.]

[That's her excuse and she's sticking to it]
