there is a giant bird in the mall. what do you do.
Who: Reyson ( heartofahawk ) and OPEN.
What: No seriously, there is a giant bird in the mall. And I mean giant. Size of a full-grown man sort of bird. Maybe taller.
When: Uhhhmmm, backdated to when the gravity first went out.
Where: The mall area, near the restaurants.
Warnings: idk excessive retardedness?
Well, there really is no easy way to get around in Zero Gravity, if you aren't used to it. Growing accustomed to this ship ( and all of the strange, bizarre, confusing modern conveniences it offered ) was no easy task for a heron hailing from a world where computers, telecommunication and fast food did not yet exist; these newfangled electronic doors and gadgets ( WHAT IS THIS BLACK MAGIC ) puzzled him even on the easiest of days, when gravity was a non-issue. As it was, he'd taken a very big risk to get here to this section of the ship, where the restaurants were, to procure some dinner for himself and Leanne. Considering he doesn't know how a television works, or how to operate a toaster, this is a difficult endeavor for a rather non-worldly heron.
But he'd offered, and it was a little exciting to adventure out like this - there were so many strange new things to learn about on a ship like this, despite how overwhelming it all was. He'd set out alone to venture into the strange world of fast food and fine dining. All had gone relatively well, and he was currently on the way back to his room.
So you can imagine his surprise when the gravity simply disappeared. MORE BLACK MAGIC. The voice over the intercom ( how did that work, anyway? ) gave him no assurance in his plight. Unable to stand or walk or even really balance properly, Reyson took hold of the nearest stationary object, both wings thrown out for stability. But when he'd attempted further movement, he'd failed most miserably. Perhaps flight would be easier?
So now there's a big giant flapping white bird near your local restaurants, stretching out its long white neck as it attempts to move forward and swim through the air, a plastic bag of food clamped in its long beak. It's not as easy as it looks, but he's making .. a little progress! .. Hopefully Leanne didn't mind waiting an extra hour or so for her food.
