OTA TEXT | SO WHERE Y'ALL AT????

[sometime on the third, all the names of people who were sent on group missions (obviously au names only) will be released onto the network for IC knowledge. everyone will be able to see this post if they glance at the network, whether they're in the city or away on groups!

however annotated next to the groups will be the information that group one is going to pesgare, group two is going to respartum, group three is going to bosuma, and group four is going to magatus.]


if you didn't get a call to arms here's the copypasta:

How would you like to help us help you out? Your observation period's up and I want you on this particular assignment. You'll be fine, you're probably not going to die, and we'll be able to monitor you from here. We need help. You've got the skills needed even if you don't know it yet. I know it and that's what counts.

You'll be working with a group (wish I could give you the names, still putting the lists together), but your assignment partner is [INSERT RANDO HERE]. Should you choose to accept this assignment, you will need to meet at the [LOCATION] and we'll go from there.

You'll be rewarded for your success, of course, but this is only if we have an agreement. Do we have an agreement?

hard to do work when you don't have info right
carly's more useful than expected
but he said don't get distracted

anyway
the more you know and all that


[and that's the message!]

[ OOC: please use this as an open mingle for whatever purposes you need! unless directly addressed, baren won't be responding. he just bugged carly for info and shared it. if any adjustments need to be made, lmk!

edit: almost immediately after the initial post goes up, Matt Murdock's name will be edited out into black squares. ]

People people!
Workaholics, but they're pretty nice.
I guess they moved here a long time ago so they could fulfill their vision.
loudmouths: (🌟 i spy with my little eye)

[personal profile] loudmouths 2018-02-05 01:47 am (UTC)(link)
their vision...

what might that be, exactly?
heritrix: (doom is upon you)

[personal profile] heritrix 2018-02-05 01:56 am (UTC)(link)
World domination.
They've been working really hard on this doomsday device.
loudmouths: (🌟 i'm here for ART sir)

...

eeeehhhhhhhhh???
loudmouths: (🌟 I EXPLAINED THAT)

[personal profile] loudmouths 2018-02-05 02:01 am (UTC)(link)
oi! you can't joke about that stuff!!

knowin all the weird shit that goes down around here, anything is possible!
heritrix: (lean)

[personal profile] heritrix 2018-02-05 02:06 am (UTC)(link)
The joke practically wrote itself, though!
And don't you feel better knowing they're just peaceful citizens down here?
loudmouths: (🌟 hindsight is bullshit)

[personal profile] loudmouths 2018-02-05 02:14 am (UTC)(link)
...well ok, fine, i'll give you that

but honestly, it makes me a little concerned that they're normal people... why would they live underground??? what's the point in doin that???
heritrix: (harbor)

[personal profile] heritrix 2018-02-05 02:18 am (UTC)(link)
Like I said, they wanted to fulfill their vision.
For real, they make art and furniture, and all kinds of machines. Weapons, gates, light fixtures, you name it.
They're really passionate about their metalwork.
loudmouths: (🌟 i can't do that hal)

[personal profile] loudmouths 2018-02-05 02:20 am (UTC)(link)
oh, i thought the "vision" part was also part of the joke

but hm... they must really not like interference if they took such great lengths to bury themselves in the earth's crust...

what's it look like down there?
heritrix: (could it be?)

[personal profile] heritrix 2018-02-05 02:24 am (UTC)(link)
Hold on a sec.

[Give her a minute, and then a picture will come through! Kind of a lot like this, but imagine a bustling city in the middle of it, with homes and businesses built into cubbyholes along the cavern walls. Everywhere you look there seems to be people hard at work.]
loudmouths: (🌟 and i refuse to let that happen)

1/2

[personal profile] loudmouths 2018-02-05 02:32 am (UTC)(link)
holy shit

[ that's all he can manage for a second, until... ]
loudmouths: (🌟 from a long line of terrible)

[personal profile] loudmouths 2018-02-05 02:36 am (UTC)(link)
err, sorry. that just shocked me.

[ he tries his best not to cuss around girls, okay. though then he realizes he cussed just before, so... guessilldie.jpg ]

ah! well! anyway! i guess as long as they're nice and stuff, it's probably fine? i'd feel like i'd get lost in that place, though...

[Pfft, that's cute. Rin laughs a bit, then sighs exasperatedly to herself seeing the end of his message.]

Oh, you don't know the half of it. It's difficult enough, but then to top it off our maps burn up!
loudmouths: (🌟 is there something wrong?)

[personal profile] loudmouths 2018-02-05 03:09 am (UTC)(link)
[ totes not cute... ]

your maps burned up?! what do you mean?! is the air toxic or something??? i imagine it can't be great to breathe all that industrial metalworking smog ...

[ he's also totally not envisioning a piece of paper bursting into flames or anything... ]
heritrix: (okay then)

[personal profile] heritrix 2018-02-05 03:46 am (UTC)(link)
No, it's just really hot.
Like you can watch drops of water evaporate and everything.
Pretty much nailed it on the smog though, there's a lot of smoke in the air too.
loudmouths: (🌟 OH GOD WHAT ARE YOU DOING)

[personal profile] loudmouths 2018-02-10 05:56 am (UTC)(link)
holy crap... you're all gonna dry out in there! all the moisture is gonna evaporate and you'll disintegrate!!

or something... how are you handling that type of heat?!
heritrix: (gonna make it look like an accident)

[personal profile] heritrix 2018-03-01 01:11 am (UTC)(link)
I'm not. You've been talking to a ghost.
loudmouths: (🌟 the one inch punch)

don't joke like that because I'm a spirit medium and I'll have to send you to the next life
