Before the explosion

[skinners_box]

General gathering, suiting up, mingling, final talks, etc. before 11:54pm.

Re: Before the explosion

[darc_nidellia]

[He's standing amongst the gathering crowd, expression hollow and entirely closed off, arms folded over his scarred chest and wings furled tightly behind him. He finds it vaguely abhorrent to be among other people now, but it's something he can ignore. He's idly wondering whether the upcoming mayhem will be able to elicit any real feelings from him, whether fear or even excitement will finally kick in once things get under way.

Yet somehow he doubts it]

[harry_b_dresden]

[Harry sweeps in in full Wizardly War Gear, his coat and hat sewn with runes glowing a pale blue to match the pentacle around his throat. he gives Darc a difficult to read look]

Haven't seen you around for a while.

Re: Before the explosion

[darc_nidellia]

[He turns towards Harry on hearing him address him, his own expression remaining as unsettlingly blank as it had been before the wizard walked in]

I've been keeping to myself.

Blow up the cafeteria

[skinners_box]

11:54 pm, black collars, boom.

Re: Blow up the cafeteria

[harry_b_dresden]

[Harry takes a second to check his collar before lowering his staff towards the wall. Sure, he wasn't the hardest hitter here, but he could lend his two cents]

FUEGO!

[A tightly controlled gout of flame and force blasts into the wall, fueled by all the anger, hatred and pain Harry's endured in the facility. He's burned hotter... but he can't remember when.]

[prazerbutterfly]

[Seeing Patchouli immediately start, he doesn't hesitate the moment he sees his collar thick and black around his neck in the nearest mirror. He's using a ton of energy, his own body covered in the thick dark matter and flowing around him.

Boom]

[grouchinleather]

[Grits his teeth as the collars switch to black--he wasn't liking this headache sensation he got as his implants switched to full power. He'd gone almost 20 years without a headache (well, in the literal sense), and now he'd had two.

Oh well, he knew just what to take this annoyance out on--he pulled the giant jackhammer he received from Komui, switched on, and got to work. Of course, that wouldn't be enough, but until they got through this wall, it would have to do...]

Team Hackers and their defenders

[skinners_box]

For the hackers and defenders set up at the work stations on level three in the experimental staging area.

[notasidedick]

[This is going to be fun. Dick is already heading over to set himself up. He knows that Sollux is pretty damn talented and the Misakas will probably do most of the work. But that wasn't going to stop him from doing what he can.

Their team was pretty small, and with the amount of work they had to do, anything would be worth it at this time.]

[psionichax0r]

[Sollux feels like he should say something, since he volunteered to be in charge of this and all, but he can't think of anything. All he can feel is his nerves, and how scared he is. Scared he is of failing, if he messes this up, its not a mistake he can fix, one none of them can.]

Don't fuck this up.

[He wasn't any good at inspirational speeches like John was, but hey, at least he knew what was important.]

[notasidedick]

[He smiles a little at Sollux. Dick didn't need an inspirational speeches or anything. He just knew to do his work alongside everyone else.]

Good luck. We got a lot to do now.

[Dick turned his attention to what he was doing. They'll be at this for awhile, and he was ready to spend whatever amount of time to get this done.]

Team Self Destruct

[skinners_box]

Teams can start threads here for their work deactivating the self destruct. They can scatter to other teams once they're done.

[adashofrain]

Come on Harry! [Rainbow Dash, all dressed up in her new magicked ninja suit is already zooming out of the gaping hole in the cafeteria, heading straight for the first floor]

[harry_b_dresden]

[There was one unforseen consequence of that cloak of hers. It made her ridiculously difficult to follow in the chaos, a shifting mass of color changing to match her surroundings. Harry followed as best he could, at a dead sprint already, map in hand]

Second left, Dash! If there's interns, try to blow past them and wait for me in the closest secure area you can hole up!

[adashofrain]

Got it! [She flies faster, zooming around the corner, weaving between interns before stopping dead in a little alcove]

Team Air Lock

[skinners_box]

For the team gathered in the transportation hub on level three, dealing with the airlocks. They can scatter to other teams once they're done.

11:54

[iai_puppy]

[Ten minutes. By her estimate, that left them about two minutes for a last-minute briefing, seven minutes to destroy all the cameras on the third level, and one minute to begin disrupting the airlock's controls before it became too late to stop them from opening.

Once they were on to the second stage of the plan, they would have a bit more time, but it was likely that the Consortium would be trying to open the airlocks as soon as they knew the self-destruct failed. They needed to finish stage one before then.

Helion closed her eyes, mentally reviewing the cameras she would need to clear out, and trying to calculate the time it would take as she waited for the moment they were to begin.]

11:54

[empyreanistic]

You ready for this? [Alfred is nearby, tense and waiting for the moment everything goes down] Remember: straight to the airlock. No distraction.

11:55

[didiexplodeyou]

[Kimblee has recovered from his entry blast and is preparing himself for the trek into the transportation area. He's but a mere human and all of these people running by him at insane speeds make him feel, well, rather incompetent, but his duty is to make it to the main airlock and disrupt it's functioning bu any means necessary so that's what he will do. As he starts making his way towards the transportation area he starts looking around for a way to make it there faster, be it machine or ally he hasn't a whole lot of time to kill.]
