March plot-with-me post!

[namesram]

Last month, the Free Grid’s shape and demographics were drastically changed by a severe storm. Some lost their homes, and some lost friends, but the storm also imported a patch of clean Sea (with some unexpected passengers) and put an end to death on the Grid. (Has... anybody actually tested this yet? Because this is a thing.)

This month, transportation across the Grid is stalling as a compatibility error makes most vehicles nonfunctional. Is your vehicle one of them? Are you frantically trying to get somewhere, or is this forcing you to slow down and smell the virtual roses for once? Are you interested in investigating the cause of the error, possibly via ancient Archive records or by exploring self-maintaining system utility facilities that have gone unvisited since before the Reintegration? Do you desperately need to get somewhere or else DISASTER? Are you part of a relief or rescue mission, or do you need one? Could you not care less about transportation because there are more important things going on in your life? Did you just rezz in and is this the worst system ever of all time?

Don't forget to use the Jobfair/Tasksets and Locations posts for ideas on what your character can do for others and they for you during this event.

Now get in here and plot! \o/

Just running two main characters this month - Fox and the Waves bunch are still going to be lurking in NPC status working on the finishing touches unless there is someone who wants to thread with one or both members of the Siren pair.

Echo
Echo is still getting settled and grumping about being yanked backwards in time over by the Portal. The transportation shutdown won't bother her too much because if she doesn't feel like walking she can just hop on Fail's back. Perks of being partners with a giant dog, you see. As per their functions the pair will be available for transporting programs in need of medical treatment and possibly in cases of a program needing to really really get somewhere if they ask nicely enough. Just don't beg for a ride and then tell her that your really important appointment is meeting up with friends at the End of Line for a party, because you will be unceremoniously dumped on your backside and left in the middle of the street. :D Other than that she will be around for general CR building things like medical treatments or checkups or simple conversations.


Eden
Eden is pretty much still doing what she normally does in terms of being out and about and interacting with people. She's still kind of bummed about two of her friends leaving the system and a little unsteady because of the recent geographically upheaval during the storm, and may have acquired a pet Bit in the midst of said storm, but beyond that there hasn't been much change for her.


The Whales
Yup, these guys are also available for threads if anyone wants to poke them. I just won't be making an open post for them this month and since they can't exactly leave the inland Sea (unless they are Apollo in which case Apollo stay away from the beach UDI getting stranded once was enough) they will obviously only be able to interact with characters that come to them.

What if Hartley's urgent meeting is making sure that Echo gets to the End of Line for a party because why is Hartley the only one who believes in breaks? :D

Also Tron and Eden and Radia need to do a thing.

[thingreenline]

E-excuse you she knows how to take breaks! She just hasn't really had the time to do so since she got here, what with all the adjusting to antiquated things she hasn't seen or dealt with in a while she has had to do. D:

Ooh, maybe they could visit the whales?

Yes! And Tron also wants to drag Eden for ISOing lessons. He'll be double interested in that if he ever finds out about the Sea thing.
