march mod plot log

Who: Everyone
When: March 3rd to March 31st
Where: Thisavrou + New Worlds
Warnings:


thisavrou monthly info ( the tmi )

All information is current as of day 62 ( there are 100 days in a cycle, which started on January 1st).

The storm around Thisavrou is rather quiet this month. Although there is still an upsurge in the number of Outpost techs called in, many of them have been put on standby until otherwise needed. Weather on Kauto is a moderate 70°F / 21°C during the day and 65°F / 18 °C at night, and Chioni’s has reached dangerous highs of 200°F / 93°C at peak hours.

Savrii Notices:

  • Region One grocery depots are offering sixty percent off of any item purchased between day 70 and 82.
  • Region Three’s residents are doing a pruning ( every sixty days or so ) and all excess is available to be taken; if you need it for mulch, lumber, etc. it’s free to anyone.
  • Mission notices have been posted to TABs for anyone interested in earning a little extra cash. Available missions are listed below:

  • Day 65 (March 6th) - The locals of Region One (R1) are looking for extra help with cleaning and are hiring pairs to run each machine. They’ll pay 50 sencs an hour or 300 sencs for a full day.
  • Day 68 ( March 10th) - A group of newcomers have taken shelter in Region Five as their home world is no longer habitable. All of their belongings have been brought through the Ingress and is stacked up outside the EN-Line in R1. Savrii are paying volunteers 70 sencs an hour to help transport everything to their new homes. This species returns kindness with kindness, and will offer any volunteer who goes the extra mile tips ranging from 100 to 200 sencs.
  • Day 75 (March 16th) - With temperatures on Chioni reaching record highs, some scientists and researchers have been stranded due to EN-Line shutdowns. Those in the Ingress Complex are offering 950 sencs to anyone who is willing to withstand the heat and rescue their fellow colleagues. Any equipment needed for the trip will be provided, but due to the greater increase of temperature, some suits may only cool a body inside for a total of four hours before needing replaced. Plan the trip wisely: most EN-Line access has been completely revoked and travel by foot (or vehicle) is necessary.
  • Day 87 (March 28th) - Scientific Study. Do you smoke? Are you addicted to any substance? A scientist researching methods to combat addictions, of all kinds, is looking for volunteers. He’ll ask a series of questions, take samples, record, study, analyze, and apply new procedures over the course of a day (nothing invasive without permission). Compensation is 800 sencs with complete cooperation.


  • ingress travel info

    Signatures are the base reason for traveling through the Ingress (aside from general exploration and monetary gain) and are used to discover the correct world visitors on Thisavrou wish to return to. Every visit through a different Ingress brings the technicians a little closer to finding it. The two worlds open for access this month only have a slight impact on the signature of each person who travels.

    Missions are jobs or specific tasks listed on the TAB once new worlds are open for exploration. Be sure to check if Clearance Levels are required to accept some of these missions.

    Clearance Levels are given to visitors for the length of time they have been on Thisavrou (or traveling on the Moira). Each CL offers access to certain things or incentives that others will not have.


    deslora

    Upon entering the world of Deslora, everything seems to be connected by an intricate tunnel of tubes that lead to different and very explorable areas of this new place. Ingress travel will have been quick but somewhat nauseating for most, and returning to Thisavrou will result in the same feeling. However, it wears off quickly, and Deslora is opened as EC (exploration class). Aside from the bright colors of the “walls” and the excessive lights, there are also smells of familiarity—to some. Popcorn, pizza, cotton candy. They waft through the tunnels and get stronger the closer anyone comes to the first open area of Deslora, and depending on the route that is taken, some may have to crawl or walk right into it.

    Food, perhaps, might be one draw to Deslora, but it is not, so to speak, the main attraction. After piling through the tunnels, it’s like being inside a massive tent. There is no natural lighting, everything illuminated by bulbs or torches placed strategically across the path that leads to an equally smaller tent. Dangling above the doorway is a sign that reads Laugh Your Way to A Smile with reflectors and pieces of glass hanging from its bottom. Entering the tent will reveal a very small but intricately designed room full of twists and turns and mirrors. The strange thing about them comes with looking at your own reflection; passing by will do nothing. If you linger too long, you find your own physical body beginning to take the shape of what is reflected in the mirror. Sometimes, you are stretched thin and tall. Sometimes, you are short and round. And other times, you will find yourself suddenly wavy and curved from head to toe. These changes do not hurt the first few times they happen, but after the third look at your reflection, some alterations may cause pain in your limbs or torso. It increases each time you look at a mirror, and while the effects will fade after a few minutes, it’s best not to linger too long and find your way out through the otherside.

    Located several tunnels down - or up, depending on the direction you go - from the Deslora’s ever-popular funhouse is another equally famous attraction. At the top of the steps, a worker waits to pair up individuals into groups of two before ushering them inside the first set of doors. The foyer is quiet, and after the doors behind you have been shut, two single doors ahead of you and your partner begin to illuminate. There is a sign between the doors: Pick A Path . Once through the chosen door, it will lock and the door will slowly fade away. It will quickly become evident that what is in this room is specifically targeted at one out of the two people inside. A happy memory, a beloved hobby, the person you love most - the scenario is always different, but the overall feel is the same. Whatever the room has transformed into, it’s what makes that person the happiest. If it’s a person, they can be spoken to and touched, if it’s an object, it can be used. As the interactions between both characters and the room increase, subtle changes will begin to occur. Slowly, the contents of the room begin to morph into something new. The combination of what one person loves the most and what the other hates the most. The only resolution to be had is to confront the issues and find something in the room to help. For one past patron, the room transformed into thousands of paintings that morphed into painted memories of their partner’s most painful memories. The only way out was a can of varnish tucked back into the corner of the room. Be creative, be careful. Find the way out together.


    thisavrou (R6)

    Every so often, new Regions are built to accommodate visitors who are looking to make Thisavrou their homes, a place to work, and many other acceptable reasons. The Savrii pride themselves on being open to explorers and travelers, allowing Thisavrou to be a mecca of trade, exploration, and for some - a place to live. During many meetings with Savrii intermediates over the course of 600 days, an agreement was made with an entrepreneur looking to find a safe place to build their business. The funder, John Hammond, spent millions of sencs on the proper permits and is funding the building, transportation, expansion and overall creation of Region Six. Over the next 30 days, Mr. Hammond will be following very specific building schematics and with this, will be hiring temporary workers to fill the positions required to do so. Job postings will go up and those that do well, might be offered permanent employment when Region Six is up and running. Hammond, along with his temporary work posts via the TABs, will release a missive explaining the following: a few days before the Region is open he will be hiring a large number of permanent employees in (research, science, ingress, cleaning, security, transportation, customer service) fields. He’ll also thank all Savrii, and anyone living on Thisavrou, for allowing him to bring him and his to live here.

    "The people living here have to find peace in some way," Nihlus murmurs thoughtfully. "Between random folks being pulled in through the Ingress and it opening to a new place every month..."

    He can't really complain though. Maybe the peace of Savrou was only surface deep, but at least there was a whole planet to spread out on. There were no incompetent captains and there was space to move away from people you disliked.

    And, so far, the Ingress hasn't malfunctioned horrifically and turned everything and everyone into glass. Or flung random crew members onto a slaver outpost. Or pulled random monsters onboard while disintegrating the ship from accelerated time shenanigans.

    ... Hm, probably shouldn't jinx things.

    "I'm Nihlus Kryik," he offers, eyes slanting in a smile. "Sorry about the strip show. I just dropped off of a mission on Chioni and it's literally burning up there."

    [ His hands are full, so he can't bropunch his shoulder, but he bumps his elbow into Keith's arm instead. ]

    Hey, like I said, nothing's changed. You're still Keith the Hot Headed, Stab-First-Think-Later action guy, even if you are Galra.

    [ He does look over, then. He doesn't smile, but his expression gets a fraction softer. ]

    ... It's gonna be a pain getting these things through the tunnels.

    [ Lance sees it, even if it's not as obvious as a smile. He heads towards the tunnels, though, glancing over his shoulder to Keith as he goes. ]

    That's what we get for being thoughtful and considerate teammates, huh? Stuck pushing a bunch of stuffed animals around in weird tubes.

    ...Yeah, I think I'm gonna get a drink.

    [ He wants to put a few minutes ahead of this conversation so he has a second to think, so he leaves Shiro at the table and goes up to the counter to get both of them a drink, coming back with a ridiculous looking whipped cream coffee drink, and one simple espresso.

    He puts the fancy drink in front of Shiro. It has a chocolate cookie sticking out of the whipped cream.

    [ There's a long, awkward pause before Keith gives Shiro what he hopes is an encouraging (and only slightly "there there") pat on the shoulder. ]

    Wow, you-- [he cuts off, withdrawing to tilt his head back and stare up at the older male.] You're incredible, Hunk. I never imagined that someone would invite me to breakfast and have this amazing bunch of food just waiting to be made.

    [He reaches to cup the back of his neck, working his fingers through the messy waves there and smiling with absolute sincerity.] Thank you for inviting me. I really appreciate it and I can't wait to try these pancakes!

    [Though she nodded, her gaze still seemed distant. The girl in the mirror still sat in her minds eye, smiling back at her with all the vibrancy that Angel had been robbed of. What she wouldn't give, to be that delighted girl, to be someone with sparkling eyes, rather than ones haunted by the shadows of what she had suffered.]

    [In addition to the ache in her bones, a new feeling settled in -- the familiar yet briefly forgotten lethargy that had plagued her since her arrival. She'd done well to keep it at bay today, but now it crept back up, not unlike a spider or a chill up her spine. There was too much happening for her to maintain her focus.]

    [The facade was crumbling, just as her appearance was.]

    [She managed a few steps, enough to pull her around the corner from the mirror, before pulling away from the elf and nearly collapsing against a wall. Her head fell into her hands, and her fingers worked their way through her hair one last time. Strands from the right side of her head came free, and she gazed at the ones caught between her fingers until they too faded away.]


    It isn't fair.

    Isn't that a bigger pain than just trying them on in the store?
    yablueit: (027)

    [personal profile] yablueit 2017-03-20 10:51 am (UTC)(link)
    Well—!

    [ Both of those things are true and he has no argument. ]

    [personal profile] businessinfront 2017-03-20 11:12 am (UTC)(link)
    [ Keith glares down at the floor, blunt nails dragging back and forth over the smooth armor on his arm. Being decent right now is like pulling teeth, but the pieces are slowly and tentatively coming together in his head, and he has to ask. ]

    ... Dude, are you embarrassed or something?
    yablueit: (107)

    [personal profile] yablueit 2017-03-20 11:13 am (UTC)(link)
    [ He grits his teeth, but doesn't answer, the back of his neck burning hot with embarrassment. ]
    businessinfront: (New3)

    [personal profile] businessinfront 2017-03-20 11:35 am (UTC)(link)
    Why? You're good at this.
    yablueit: (103)

    [personal profile] yablueit 2017-03-20 11:40 am (UTC)(link)
    Yeah, only because I couldn't get into the fighter class at the Garrison and had to go into cargo piloting first as a backup.
    businessinfront: (Congrats. You made toast.)

    [personal profile] businessinfront 2017-03-20 11:50 am (UTC)(link)
    [ It makes sense, but it's still not right. Sure, Keith would've been upset if it were him, but he would have been a terrible cargo pilot. But Lance is still sore about it after all this time...? ]

    Were you mad because you wanted to be a fighter pilot, or because it wasn't glamorous?
    yablueit: (107)

    [personal profile] yablueit 2017-03-20 11:52 am (UTC)(link)
    Why does it have to be one or the other?

    [personal profile] businessinfront 2017-03-20 11:56 am (UTC)(link)
    ... I would've sucked at it.
    yablueit: (083)

    [personal profile] yablueit 2017-03-20 11:58 am (UTC)(link)
    Yeah right, dude, I'm pretty sure you could fly anything.

    [ He sounds half annoyed, half impressed, and entirely embarrassed about both. ]
    businessinfront: (Woke up with my pockets full of raisins.)

    [personal profile] businessinfront 2017-03-20 12:05 pm (UTC)(link)
    [ His brows knit, and he looks over at Lance, not sure what to make of that. ]

    Well... sure, I guess. But it's not like cargo running's the boring version of a dogfight.

    Adrenaline junkie.

    [ But... he gets it. ]

    You're right. It's like watching paint dry.
    yablueit: (024)

    [personal profile] yablueit 2017-03-20 12:18 pm (UTC)(link)
    It's not just about adrenaline!

    [ He scowls, but it softens into a grin at Keith's admission of understanding. ]

    Right? I could take a nap in here if it weren't against my contract.

    Good thing sitting here arguing with me isn't against the rules.

    [ And if it was, they probably wouldn't care. ]

    So what's it about, then?
