Who: Anyone
When: Day 82, Early Morning
Where: Level 1
What: Some Clean up

[Unless you are down on level 1 in the early morning for some reason, you will probably miss the way the gross, rotting messes start to simply disappear, as if being collected by some invisible party. Piles of moss, tangled rot, pools of stagnant water. The algae clinging to walls just fades away.

What you probably DO notice is when you get up in the morning well... the air just smells a lot fresher than it has since the move! Rather like you are no longer living directly above a smelly bog full of rotting plant and animal life.

Journeying down to Level 1 will reveal two things:

1) The level is clear of all rotting, dead and dying plant and animal life, as well any life that was thriving in that disgusting muck. Perhaps 85% of what was down there is gone and what is left are vines and flowers, perhaps a few creatures. Whatever had begun to grow or moved in since the move. They are sparsely placed and easy enough to clear by hand.

2) There's still a lot of.. junk. Left over. Namely in the many rooms that parameter each of Level 1's five floors. Old tables, made of metal and stone, some still usable but most not. Chairs, benches, desks. Husks of comfort and office furniture.

Other than that, the Level is a vast open space with many rooms lining the walls. The two doors that once blocked the huge front opening lie on the ground near the opening, and if you look them over carefully you'll find you can recognize many of the carvings depicting peoples, cities, acts of god, and the gods themselves.]

I'm not a personal fan of it myself, burning to death is not a way I ever wanted to go. But, Mordin wasn't exactly what I'd call the most sane salarian I'd ever run into, good guy, but he could be a little creepy at times. I'm pretty sure he had DNA from all of us in that lab of his.
opticshots: (lesser.)

[personal profile] opticshots 2012-10-18 06:58 pm (UTC)(link)
The best evil genius I ever knew. He may have been creepy, but I've never seen a salarian try so hard to help a quarian. That was never something he needed to do.

He didn't put a lot of faith on racial tensions, probably why he had that clinic on Omega. People who needed or wanted help were able to get it, it didn't matter who they were. I just hope wherever he is it's better than it is here.
opticshots: (good poker face.)

[personal profile] opticshots 2012-10-18 08:23 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes... It's got to be. Because this isn't right.
stilcalibrating: (something's not right)

[personal profile] stilcalibrating 2012-10-19 11:32 pm (UTC)(link)
No, it's not. But we're here now and we'll just have to make due until we can figure out where we're supposed to be. Guess I'll just have to keep that offer of drinks until we get somewhere we can make good on that promise.
opticshots: (body language.)

[personal profile] opticshots 2012-10-20 04:40 am (UTC)(link)
You may be waiting a while, by the looks of it. Sorry, Garrus.
stilcalibrating: (tali)

[personal profile] stilcalibrating 2012-10-20 04:43 am (UTC)(link)
It's far from anything you need to apologize for Tali, but I guess with you here it won't be all that bad.
opticshots: (ever so simple.)

[personal profile] opticshots 2012-10-20 04:45 am (UTC)(link)
You almost make it sound like you like me or something. [Teasing him will never not be one of her favourite things, sadly.]
stilcalibrating: (close up visor)

[personal profile] stilcalibrating 2012-10-20 04:46 am (UTC)(link)
Hm, perhaps a little. You do keep the engine running smoothly and always remind me that shotguns can be useful.
opticshots: (argue.)

[personal profile] opticshots 2012-10-20 04:49 am (UTC)(link)
Well, I'd like to think I'm... good at making engines run.
stilcalibrating: (above collar pop)

[personal profile] stilcalibrating 2012-10-20 04:50 am (UTC)(link)
One of the best, from what I've seen.
opticshots: (after time away.)

[personal profile] opticshots 2012-10-20 04:51 am (UTC)(link)
I can compare to other engineers, can I?
stilcalibrating: (heh heh)

[personal profile] stilcalibrating 2012-10-20 04:54 am (UTC)(link)
I can compare some other engineers to you, but they never quite stack up in the way you do. Something about you being able to stand hours of calibrations without getting tired of me working.
opticshots: (skeptical.)

[personal profile] opticshots 2012-10-20 04:55 am (UTC)(link)
I like watching you work. And you put your talents to good use, last I had the honour of checking.
stilcalibrating: (dramatic lighting)

[personal profile] stilcalibrating 2012-10-20 04:57 am (UTC)(link)
Heh, glad you think so Tali. Too bad there's nothing around here for me to check on, unless your suit needs some computer calibrations. But I'm sure you can do that yourself.
opticshots: (close.)

[personal profile] opticshots 2012-10-20 08:38 am (UTC)(link)
Of course I can take care of myself, but I'm not going to object if you want to offer a second opinion.
stilcalibrating: (fringe shot)

[personal profile] stilcalibrating 2012-10-20 08:29 pm (UTC)(link)
I might be able to make some time, have a detailed look. Just in case, you never know.
opticshots: (home.)

[personal profile] opticshots 2012-10-20 08:58 pm (UTC)(link)
Mmm, I think I have a few seals that need checking, when you have time.
stilcalibrating: (well hello there ladies)

[personal profile] stilcalibrating 2012-10-20 09:57 pm (UTC)(link)
Always have time for you, Tali. Just tell me where and when, I'll be sure to double-check everything for you.
opticshots: (got swag.)

[personal profile] opticshots 2012-10-20 10:02 pm (UTC)(link)
[She hums, sort of sauntering past him as she goes to examine something else.]

Maybe later then.
stilcalibrating: (this is wine)

[personal profile] stilcalibrating 2012-10-28 11:58 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah....later.

[He's staring Tali, you have his attention, all of it.]
opticshots: (close.)

[personal profile] opticshots 2012-10-30 01:10 am (UTC)(link)
I'd like to have a better look at some of the things around here. Unless you're tired of this.
stilcalibrating: (just adjusting my collar)

[personal profile] stilcalibrating 2012-10-30 01:22 am (UTC)(link)
I can hang around for a little longer, course I'm not sure how much I'd like to look around so much as focus on one thing.

[He might be staring at your hips, he might not be.]
opticshots: (let's get down to business.)

[personal profile] opticshots 2012-11-02 03:06 pm (UTC)(link)
One goal at a time. How typical of you.
stilcalibrating: (headscratch)

[personal profile] stilcalibrating 2012-11-04 04:40 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm actually thinking of several but just like to focus on one thing at a time. Don't want to show up too many people with my multitasking skills.
