SCENERY

Who: Anyone
When: Day 117, let's say "All Day" through to "Evening"
Where: Misty mountains
What: mingle

[So since this morning the HQ has been buried in mist and fog. There's the sense that the HQ has been slowly rising and falling in elevation, much more slowly than it had been proceeding until now. The power consumed by flying also seems to have increased as the HQ is forced to compensate for wind and drag and maintaining equilibrium while traveling over extreme slopes and other various factors of trying to fly directly over a mountain range.

Chill winds whistle through the hallways now, funneling through the HQ, down the stairwells, finally escaping out of the unsealed parts of the hangar on Level 2 and the great, gaping doorway on Level 1 (careful when walking in those areas or you might get dragged out). The lizagons have either retreated to the more secure nests closer to the covered parts of the dome or have moved to the first Level and scratched out the doorways of the abandoned rooms to settle in. In the mist outside one can sometimes see shapes passing by the windows: the tree-covered faces of a mountainside, or occasionally faster shapes... Sounds call out in the gloom, but the HQ's hulking size and constant motion seems to be enough to deter anything that might try to investigate for the time being.

Toward sunset, as the HQ seems to peak in one of the longer ascents of the day, the mist slowly begins to thin, and one can make out the shadows of another uneven stretch of mountains spreading out before the HQ, the setting sun painting them blue and purple as it starts to dip below the horizon.]


((ooc: We're looking to set the HQ down sometime between Thursday (tomorrow) or Friday night. There are some limited options, but the goal is to get to a place where people can rest a while.))

[If you're wandering about the fog this morning, you may find the sensation that something is watching you- a tingly feeling on the back of your neck. You can check that no one is actually there but that feeling persists until...it seems like the air in front is solidifying into the form of a large wolf?

But no, that couldn't be, because now there is a man. A grumpy man with very sharp teeth, but only a man...right?]

Gooooooooooooooood, I'm fuckin' starving!

Well? Has your breath been stolen? Surely this sight is enough!

I am afraid. That my expanding and collapsing respiratory organs. Have continued to function. Without pause.

Truly a difficult lady to impress. I see it will take more than well-crafted scenery.

[personal profile] deathtined 2013-02-07 11:47 pm (UTC)(link)
Even so.

It was very impressive.

[She's been doing her best to not let her own curiosity get the better of her, and has been, for the most part, leaving the control area alone this flight. It's the rising and dipping and the jagged mountain range, however, that finally niggles enough at her that Lenalee relents to peek inside and examine the controls, with probing fingers kept to herself (tucked beneath her arms; she does not do well with the chill).]

Can we still stay up?
anklets: (we're here to stay)

[personal profile] anklets 2013-02-08 12:20 am (UTC)(link)
[Blinks the fog from her eyes, as it were.]

Then go eat. [ "Why is this always your main concern?" ]

[personal profile] supraliminally 2013-02-08 12:22 am (UTC)(link)
Hmmmm. There are valleys and such that might be more suitable.

We will be out of fuel before noon tomorrow. It should give us enough time to find a suitable landing spot, since we seem to be approaching flatter ground.

I neeeeed....foood.

[coming towards you and he may be stumbling a bit, like someone who can't quite find his footing]

Ti...red.

[personal profile] anklets 2013-02-08 12:32 am (UTC)(link)
Mm.

[She comes to stand near Yukari, eyes falling to the maps she's inspecting.]

Near the mountains, then? It should be all right.
anklets: (always aim to please)

[personal profile] anklets 2013-02-08 12:34 am (UTC)(link)
[Lenalee has footing to spare. Reaches careful hands out to brace him by the arms, if need be. She can't be quite sure if he's acting or not, and that in itself is a shame.]

H-Hey.

Re: IN THE CONTROL ROOM

[personal profile] supraliminally 2013-02-08 12:39 am (UTC)(link)
Near them, to be sure.

What sort of a place are you from, originally? Rather, was it a mountainous area like this?
anklets: i'm not a model (the camera just went off on its own)

Re: IN THE CONTROL ROOM

[personal profile] anklets 2013-02-08 12:47 am (UTC)(link)
[A smile. The sort where it's outwardly wry, but maybe perhaps the slightest bit wistful at its core.]

I wouldn't exactly say that, no...

[Not even in the slightest.]
bitingbark: (Dapper)

[Kane looks tired and he blurs for a brief second, his eyes brighter than usual and his teeth more apparent and then his hair turning almost into a mane as he sort of flops onto you for support.]

Tired...hunnnngry.

Re: IN THE CONTROL ROOM

[personal profile] supraliminally 2013-02-08 12:53 am (UTC)(link)
[DGM, please.]

Oh? I suppose you don't have that look, but it's hard to tell from such things.

Still, even if you aren't from that sort of place, you might find that you like the mountains. Better than the godawful jungle, certainly.

[personal profile] anklets 2013-02-08 12:58 am (UTC)(link)
[

Not acting. Then.

Curls her arm about his back, surprisingly strong for such a spindly limb.]

...Come on. Let's go to the kitchen.
bitingbark: (Dandelion)

[personal profile] bitingbark 2013-02-08 01:06 am (UTC)(link)
[And he's surprisingly light for someone so tall. He deflates a little against you.]

Mmmmmm what daaaay...
anklets: (like some holy rite)

Re: IN THE CONTROL ROOM

[personal profile] anklets 2013-02-08 01:12 am (UTC)(link)
[NO, SEE, IT MAKES TOTAL SENSE.]

I don't have any argument against it. The climate can be harsh, but there's more freedom to it than that jungle.
anklets: (there are gulls on the horizon)

[personal profile] anklets 2013-02-08 01:16 am (UTC)(link)
What happened?

[We'll take this one step at a time, Kane. Come on.]
bitingbark: (Dandelion)

[personal profile] bitingbark 2013-02-08 01:20 am (UTC)(link)
[shakes his head]

Some...god... ugh.

[makes a disagreeable sound with his teeth]
anklets: (in the sea that's painted black)

[personal profile] anklets 2013-02-08 01:42 am (UTC)(link)
[Did you hear? Eggshells make for lovely roads. Chews the inside of her cheek a moment.]

You'll be all right, Kane.
bitingbark: (Dapper)

[personal profile] bitingbark 2013-02-08 01:47 am (UTC)(link)
[He gives a sigh.]

What if I dieeee of hunger?
melonlord: Toph grinning, her arms out. (yay)

[personal profile] melonlord 2013-02-08 02:31 am (UTC)(link)
Nope. Are we landing? Can I help?
