TEAM YZMA LOG

TEAM YZMA
READY: START

Team Yzma roster: Carmen Sandiego, Dave Strider, Elizabeth, Emil Vasterstrom, Juzo Sakakura, Lucy/Kaede, Penelo, Seto Kaiba, Shouto Todoroki, Souji Seta, Yato.



The city's been under siege for what feels like hours. It's only on August 3rd that you learn it's been a matter of days. Monsters begin pulling Retrospec users through portals left and right, large gaping holes in reality that spit you out in any given location around the city.

However, just as you think you're finally getting away, a large blue portal opens and you're snatched up. No amount of fighting and struggling will free you and soon the pressure is too great to ignore. Darkness fills your vision and the last thing you may remember is the sound of thunder...



This is the Team Yzma Event Log. You are free to toplevel and thread as you choose on this log, but only team members may utilize this log.

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!

[ Emil was in the headbridge, but scurried on over to one of the paws when Styerck loomed ahead, and sits in his post lowering the screens so he can communicate with everyone on the upper decks.

He puts his game-face on, eyes sharp as knives, brows furrowed, hands steady. And then.
]

--Right.

--Does anyone know how to use this thing?

[ He stretches the camera towards all the buttons. ]
goen: ((°◡°♡).:。)

[personal profile] goen 2017-08-24 04:41 am (UTC)(link)
Nope. Ooh, lasers!

[ JUST PRESSING RANDOM BUTTONS AND PROBABLY DESTROYING SHIT TBH, which I mean is what they need to do, so good. ]

[personal profile] parodeity 2017-08-24 05:24 am (UTC)(link)
Live and learn. Let's try not to learn where a self-destruct button is, though. Hey, I think I got the motor controls...

[ LEAPING FORWARD ]

Can anyone find an instruction manual?

[ watching a bunch of mecha anime doesn't mean you automatically know how to pilot a mech soooo ]
elevelvetor: (Ⅷ. the justice)

[personal profile] elevelvetor 2017-08-24 03:43 pm (UTC)(link)
The only instruction manual we need is the one is our hearts, Souji. [ DRAMATICALLY SETTING A HAND ON HER CHEST. ] We'll simply go on instinct, and it'll all turn out alright...

Maybe.

[ be a little more encouraging, liz ]

[Oh, there's Lucy. Looking and sounding cranky as usual. She's somewhere up on the mech's back, squinting at all the screens in front of her. One showed her the faces of everyone else, another the surroundings she couldn't see from here (space, space, GIANT ALIEN, space), another showing a wireframe blueprint of the mech itself, with the parts highlighted. Everything was green for now.]

I don't know, I can't read half of these dials.

[Pushing a lever forwards, he made some...blades? Pop out of the mech's back though. Like wings, but giant energy swords instead.]

Found a weapon.

[...which button actually turned them on, though?]
outpunch: (last known survivor)

[personal profile] outpunch 2017-08-24 05:08 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Juzo's eyes shimmer in the light of the screens...and it's not the frog poison. It's unbelievable, he's sitting in front of a huge console and he can push buttons and possibly do damage?

Suddenly he regrets not watching mecha anime. Overwhelmed by the numerous possibilities, he doesn't even press anything, just watches the energy swords on the screen. ]


Holy shit...

[ He slams his hands onto the console pressing a few buttons...and that's how Juzo figured how to shoot lasers. ]
long_live_the_queen: (kouta put your pants back on)

[personal profile] long_live_the_queen 2017-08-24 05:22 pm (UTC)(link)
[Lucy's still trying to find the on button. Juzo's lasers fired across the alien monster's nose.

It roars soundlessly in the airless space, turning ponderously to look at their mech with all those red eyes.
]

What did you do?!

[She's mostly mad Juzo figured out to use the weapons first.]
outpunch: (pic#11050321)

[personal profile] outpunch 2017-08-24 05:49 pm (UTC)(link)
I can do it again.

[ TOTALLY NOT SORRY ]
long_live_the_queen: (are you for serious)

[personal profile] long_live_the_queen 2017-08-24 06:09 pm (UTC)(link)
At least shoot at it instead of giving it a shave.

[She's never not voting for murder again. Fire away!

One of the buttons seems to finally make the blades flicker to glowing life, though their light is dim and they're far out of melee range anyway. The blade set highlights on the wireframe, with a low percentage next to it. Maybe the charge was controlled elsewhere?
]
parodeity: (HEH 🎧 sure thing)

[personal profile] parodeity 2017-08-24 06:10 pm (UTC)(link)
You know, this isn't so bad. It's almost like drivin' a car, except it's not remotely like that.

[ nARROWLY AVOIDS SLAMMING THEM INTO THE OTHER SHIP ]

I think I'm getting better.
long_live_the_queen: (fucking stairs)

[personal profile] long_live_the_queen 2017-08-24 06:47 pm (UTC)(link)
[Lucy was so busy fiddling with the dials trying to boost the voltage on the blades that she didn't notice they were getting a bit too close until the mech turns sharply and knocks her off balance. Where were the seatbelts on this thing??

Lucy didn't know who did that, but she's an equal opportunity shouter.
]

Warn me before you do that!

[SHE HATES SURPRISES]
outpunch: (pic#11050333)

[personal profile] outpunch 2017-08-24 07:24 pm (UTC)(link)
It wasn't my fault, I did nothing?!

[ He just assumes that she's yelling at him because well. It's just like their relationship is. ]

That was close. How about this one...

[ This lever on his left just wants to be pulled. And Juzo can't resist the urge.

His seat goes up shortly after. That's it, that's what the lever does, good job. ]
glaciers: (64)

[personal profile] glaciers 2017-08-24 07:34 pm (UTC)(link)
[He feels vaguely sick. This isn't exactly the smoothest ride he's ever had, so he'll slam on one of the buttons.

He's pretty sure the panther's mouth bit down...?

He'd love to be on solid ground.]
long_live_the_queen: (lookin kinda smug there)

[personal profile] long_live_the_queen 2017-08-24 07:39 pm (UTC)(link)
[Aggressive buttonmashing seems to doing the trick for now, at least?

Except for Juzo, but then again he didn't push a button.
]

Did you break your neck, Juzo?

[Don't answer that, let her dream.]

[Also there was a lot of green alien all up in the rangefinder screen suddenly. UH. Lucy turned one dial that finally seemed to be the correct one, making the blades light up with hot plasma. The alien didn't seem to like that or the bite, from how it started violently shaking itself.]
outpunch: (pic#11050339)

[personal profile] outpunch 2017-08-24 08:58 pm (UTC)(link)
You wish.

[ She probably does. Not just probably. He's 100% sure she'd like him to meet that fate. But it's not going to happen today...maybe.

It's time to slam his hands on the panel again and hope for the best results. It's not as bad as it could be, given that it's Juzo. Lasers shoot from the mecha's eyes right into that enemy ship. ]


Laser eyes?! [ And, in a whisper: ] ...That's so cool.

long_live_the_queen: (are you for serious)

I made an oops

[personal profile] long_live_the_queen 2017-08-24 10:22 pm (UTC)(link)
[Lucy would definitely not lose sleep over such a death, no. She's an Excellent Person.

The lasers leave ugly lines burnt into the side of Styerck's ship, and the vessel starts flying towards them like it was going to crash into the mech if they didn't move.

Kucy couldn't reach anything that controlled propulsion here, but that didn't mean she didn't try. She turned that dial up, hit some more buttons she couldn't read, and the blades flared brighter.

Someone else would have to move them. At least if Styerck crashed into them it'd have plasma can openers sticking into it's ship hull.

[personal profile] frisyr 2017-08-24 11:29 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Oh god okay mayday mayday Styreck is coming right towards them and Emil can't even figure out what each paw does and he found a joystick that's apparently configured so up is down and down is up (SERIOUSLY??) and-- oh wait, propulsion?

He hits that.

There is flame coming right out of the paw, which makes the ship swerve narrowly to avoid a crash

Who's driving!!
mincingminuet: (Haha!)

[personal profile] mincingminuet 2017-08-24 11:42 pm (UTC)(link)
[So much is happening. SO MUCH IS HAPPENING HOLY CRAP WHY IS SO MUCH HAPPENING.

Penelope has spent most of the last few minutes gripping her seat and trying not to giggle and get all giddy over how awesome this is. It's incredible. She's in a mech. And... oh shit that's an incoming]


Hey! I think this is one of the thrusters...

[Pushing it...and everything seems to speed up.]

Woo!
frisyr: (press)

[personal profile] frisyr 2017-08-25 12:07 am (UTC)(link)
[ EMIL IS THROWN BODILY FROM HIS SEAT AND CRASHES INTO SOMEONE, SOMEONE MAY OR MAY NOT BE THE FLOOR IF NO ONE VOLUNTEERS. ]

--Sorry! Really didn't mean to, where's my radio, is this thing on, guys what's happening up there!
goen: (i think about you all the time)

[personal profile] goen 2017-08-25 12:10 am (UTC)(link)
[ god how has styerck not killed them all by now ]

Okay, everyone shut up! Let's focus and wreck this guy so we can go home.

[ Styerck's ship loops back around for another sweep at them... ]

He's coming back. Emil, do that thing you just did with the fire again and dodge when he's close. Then the rest of you use your weapons and stuff as hard as you can while he's passing. Got it??
parodeity: (Default)

[personal profile] parodeity 2017-08-25 12:12 am (UTC)(link)
Hey, I'm doin' ok driving!

[ kind of. he IS getting better?? ]

Gettin' us closer now.
goen: (everyone should listen to muse)

[personal profile] goen 2017-08-25 12:20 am (UTC)(link)
Alright! Put the fear in him, Dave!

[ FULL SPEED AHEAD and hopefully they will not fuck this up and die extremely spectacularly. ]
mincingminuet: (Bright)

[personal profile] mincingminuet 2017-08-25 12:23 am (UTC)(link)
[Okay taking the time to figure out some things, look over labels.]

Guys, this thing has heat rays in it's eyes...
