TEAM BRANDYWINE LOG
|
After that strange Retrospec post, you may be wondering how to contact this "technician". Luckily, your phone or whatever device you have handy to check the network chooses that exact second to go haywire... Team Brandywine roster: Ann Takamaki, Chiyo Sakura, Elda Marker, Fynn Rygdea, Goro Majima, Jiroutachi, Kurama, May, Shouta Aizawa, Sora, Sorey, Souji Okia (PM). On whatever device you use to view the retrospec application, you may note the following scrolling on the screen instead of the usual options: ALERT: CRITICAL TIME-SPACE ANOMALY ACTIVE. SEARCHING FOR ADMIN... SEARCHING FOR ADMIN... DESIGNATED ADMIN CANDIDATE: EMPLOYEE #91962 M. MAHONEY PLEASE INPUT AUTHORIZATION CODE. The prompt does not seem to be for you, however, as the text prompts continue to scroll, this time with some input. > ********************** ACCEPT ADMIN STATUS Y/N? > y DESIGNATE PROGRAM TO RUN. PLEASE BE ADVISED WE ARE SYSTEM CRITICAL. > run subroutine designation echolocation-alpha CONFIRMED. EMPLOYEES ACTIVE IN AREA: 2 > list employees EMPLOYEES ACTIVE: M. FITZWILLIAM LEVEL 0 ACCESS, INTERN M. MAHONEY FULL SYSTEM ACCESS, ADMIN > search for alternative assets CONFIRMED. SENDING ALTERNATIVE ASSET LIST. Names scroll by on the screen. and look, there goes yours! It seems like someone is manually picking and choosing from a list of every Retrospec user who didn't disappear into the void, and several names queue up. > initialize support team CONFIRMED. TEAM DESIGNATION? > brandywine CONFIRMED. TEAM BRANDYWINE MISSION PARAMETERS? PLEASE BE ADVISED SYSTEM ENERGY LEVELS ARE CRITICALLY LOW. > make contact with sysadmin > contact point entrance 2 > temporary access level 1 granted CONFIRMED. MISSION PARAMETERS SET. TEMPORARY ACCESS LEVEL 1 GRANTED. The screen clears itself, and instead of the familiar retrospec logo, there is simply TEAM BRANDYWINE as a designation. the application will refuse to show anything other than a map, with one point highlighted in red. it is, of course, up to team members to decide whether or not they approach the access point. Team Brandywine's access point is in the Recollé University Basement. Team members will find a door in a hallway they've never seen before so long as they approach it in a group of two or more team members. Only Team Brandywine team members can see or enter the basement sublevels at this time. Please see the Objective 1 toplevel for more information on what they can see when they enter the door! The door looks like an ordinary key-card locked door, although it will open without need of a card for Team Brandywine members so long as the entry requirements are met. This is the Team Brandywine Event Log. You are free to toplevel and thread as you choose on this log, but only team members may utilize this log. Important links to mod toplevels are: Mod Questions & Participation Reporting. Please be aware you are responsible for reporting your own participation & objective completion efforts with links; the moderators will try to keep up with threads, but as we are currently running several teams with participation, we require you to keep us up to date! Please read each of the toplevels and instructions!
The schedule for Team Brandywine is as follows: WEEK 1: Objective 1; CLEAR: M. Mahoney; MauriceObjectives will be given in mod toplevels to this post with instructions; please check the log currently for Objective 1 to see how this will work. NPC interactions will be rnged from your team roster once per week, and toplevels for those will also be posted, although all team members can hear/see these interactions! |

[Yes, that's Fynn's alleged "thinking face", frown and scowl. He's trying to come up with something good enough to give his companions an easy enough win. However, do they even remember these creatures anymore? Fynn certainly does since one tried to murder him.]
Aha! I got it!
[Once his eureka moment ends, Fynn takes a moment to clear his throat and actually starts stretching his arms over his head like some pro-athlete and not some dork in a cool coat. He puts on a mock show for a moment before suddenly clearing his throat and letting out a resounding--]
Kweh!
[Wait what?! What is Fynn here doing?!]
Kweeeh~! [If Fynn didn't know how to whistle, trying to mimic this iconic creature would be impossible. He folds his arms against his torso like a mock chicken while seemingly scratching about like a bird would with his boots. He pretends to bend over to peck at the metal floor only to rise back up and let put a noisy--]
WAAARRRKKK!
[His reputation is about to be ruined, isn't it?]
no subject
[Of course, all thoughts of disgruntlement towards the nickname fly out of Sora's head the moment Fynn lets out the first resounding 'kweh'. He bursts out laughing, loud and unashamed, laughing so hard he nearly falls off of his chair.
He can't breathe for a second from the hilarity of it all, and while he's only known Fynn for like two weeks, this is something he never would've expected from the guy. It's a long moment before he even begins to calm down enough to give an answer.]
Cho-Choco-b-bo! 'S a ch-chocobo!
no subject
Smiling, he sips at his sake and continues to enjoy the moment.
Yep, he agrees with Sora on this one but he'll let Fynn be distracted by Sora's loud laughter so he can just save this moment on his phone.]
no subject
Well, whatever! They won this round pretty quick but this doesn't stop Fynn from pretending to peck at Sora like one of those overgrown feathery birds. He's chuckling as he does so.]
K-Kweeeeh!
[Make pretend as if one of those cookies are a gyashl green, kay?]
You nailed it! Nice job.
no subject
[Wheezing indeed, Sora's middle hurts from the laughing. It's finally starting to fade, but geeze that was ridiculous. Who knew Fynn was so good at this?
The laughter calming, Sora takes a sip of his tea to try and stop. It only marginally works, as he keeps snickering any time he looks at the other guy.]
Who's next? Jirou?
no subject
Anyway~
He takes another sip of his drink then gets up. For a moment he ponders what to do. Something easy for them to get so they can get that second point in a minute and move on.
Ah!
Jirou gets into position like he's a man leading a woman in dance and starts to, well, dance. A pretty waltz to be precise!
Don't worry boys, he'll accept waltz or dancing for this one!]
no subject
Ah, ballroom dancing?
[Jirou, the waltz isn't suppose to look so stiff and jerky, thank you.]
no subject
Yeah, definitely dancing. Is that it?
[Hopefully they don't have to say the specific dance because Sora doesn't know his feet from his hands when it comes to dancing.]
no subject
He bursts into giggles and nods.
The cats all clap at the victory they've achieved and provide them with their approval. With that they are on their way to the next location which seems to be a hangar filled with tree people! Of course after the explanation is done they all look to each other before one speaks.]
Would you honor us with a drawing of a flower?
[Jirou blinks then laughs.]
Maybe one of us could do that and the rest of us could go see what the last hangar wants? We could meet up at cheese collection!
no subject
[Fynn blinks his eyes owlishly at that odd request. Just what the hell do they want a drawing for? This entire mission is getting goofier and goofier. He almost misses fighting the electric rat and the acid monster. Almost.]
I nominate the "squirt" to draw the posies! My drawing skills are hilariously bad, just ask my brother.
no subject
[Sora gives his companions a look of confusion while they stare at him expectantly. What makes them think he can draw? His grades in art class are comparable to his math grades; which is to say, not great.
But a paper and crayons are quickly shoved into his arms, and it looks like he doesn't really have much choice in the matter. He watches the other two leave, and then sighs and sits down to start drawing flowers.
At least he's probably better than Fynn.]
no subject
[To the teal hangar Jirou and Fynn go. And what do the want? To know all about their ship!]
Oh it's amazing! I got the finest money can buy! Class nine star cruiser with all the luxury needs met. I think it's the fastest too. Do you remember, Fy?
[GO WITH HIM ON THIS FYNN.]
no subject
Just want the heck does any of this have to do with anything is beyond me. [He grumbles in annoyance as he walks along with Jirou. The two of them make their way towards the next hangar and there they find another group of stupid looking aliens there. A groan escapes him once these folks start questioning about their alleged "starship".]
Really, is there a point to this?
[Excuse his lack of enthusiasm here. It's been a long day.]
Eh? You ropin' me into this?
[Fynn tries not to roll his eyes. This man is the walking definition of frustrated right now. Aren't they supposed to be rescuing people, not socializing like Space Wars nerds? It's almost like he never left the ReConvention.]
Our space ship---[He pauses for a second as he tries to weave a convincing lie.] Our space ship is definitely a class nine star cruiser that has a luxurious interior but with the exterior of an space battle fortress. I'm talking a giant behemoth of a vessel with above standard neo-turbine engines with a nuclear core that gives it the energy necessary to travel in-between galaxies through light speed. It also have a reflective silver paint job meant to bounce light off its surface.
A rather "cool" effect if I do say so myself.
no subject
Sora watches this for a few moments before he begins to get antsy; he doesn't really fancy staying here by himself for longer than he has to. Luckily, one of them gets the picture pretty quick, and gives him a scrap of paper with their seal of approval on it.
He thanks them a few times, but most of the aliens are too busy looking at his drawing to pay any attention. Eventually, Sora just leaves to go meet up with Fynn and Jirou at their meeting spot.]
no subject
Jirou smiles happily as he lets Fynn weave the rest of the lie. Of course they gain the approval and he's pulling Fynn with him to meet up with Sora before anyone can figure out that they're all full of shit. No need to let that be a thing!]
Hiiii! We did it!
[He giggles and just immediately goes to ask for cheese from this hangar.
Only to come back.]
Who is ready for a group dance? They won't give us cheese until we do.
no subject
We did it? Did what? [Fynn looks between the two of them in mild confusion before suddenly realizing---] YES! I get to go home and friggin' sleep---wait, what?
[Dancing? Dancing? Who the fuck said they have to dance!? OH HELL NO!]
...oh goodie.
[Fynn clearly has concerns here.]
no subject
Dancing?
[He's not much of a dancer, either. Then again, none of them probably are. Maybe if they're terrible enough together, they'll pass as good. Either way, Sora wants to try.]
Okay. How... What do we do? For a dance, I mean?
no subject
[A slow imitation of a fan dance should do it. Jirou smiles at them and pats their heads then lalala he's off to ask about music. It takes a little bit before something that sounds like a space version of old fashioned Japanese music can be heard.
Jirou comes back to them beaming.]
Don't worry. Just follow what I do.
[Surprise, guys, he's a very graceful dancer! But at least he keeps the movements simple and slow to go with the pretty music floating in the air. He can lead this one just fine! Don't worry!]
no subject
Is this an "idol contest" or some mess? If so, I want out!
[Despite all his protesting, Fynn eventually quiets down and watches as Jirou starts doing some weird looking oriental dance...thing.]
Okay, so like this? [HE FEELS QUITE RIDICULOUS RIGHT NOW, THANK YOU. Fynn is not a dancer but he can mimic the moves well enough at least. This just feels stupid.]
This isn't so bad at least.
no subject
It's not that bad, Fynn. Just don't, like, fall over or anything and we'll be okay.
[This goes on for several minutes before the aliens watching the dance deem them done and hand over the cheese. They take it, and scurry out of the hanger before they're made to dance anymore.]
Okay, we've got the cheese. Now what?
no subject
[Jirou leads the way with a giggle then it's to the authorities they go with all the approvals.
And they blink in surprise that they really just did that before one of them goes to the back to get them what they need.]
See? That wasn't so bad!
[They are presented with a key for all their hard work and once they have it they're transported right to the bubble they're supposed to unlock.]
Oh! Well I guess we can just put this in here then!
no subject
[He's mentally lamenting about all this nonsense but at least it's over. It's finally over.]
We're done here, right? That means we get to go home and sleep!
[Fynn is totally looking forward to sleeping.]
...It's a bubble. [He feels the need to state that aloud.] Is there a keyhole someplace? I mean, how do you even unlock a "bubble" to begin with?
no subject
[Sora continues dancing until they're done, and honestly by the end, he's tired. Tired of all of this, and he kind of agrees with Fynn that it would be nice to be able to go home and take a nap.
Instead, it looks like they have a bit more work to do. Sora examines the key with the rest of the team, but he's just as lost as the rest of his team.]
I dunno. Maybe we just... I dunno.
no subject
He wander around the bubble until he finds a lock. In the key goes and ta-da! One of the locks is unlocked with a thank you from Baroque.]
Done!
