Whistling in the Dark - Mod Plot [Log Post]
Who| Everyone who signed up!
What| Whistling in the Dark Plot. The gang has to deal with threats around Legion World and the possessed
Where| Everywhere!
When| After Ferro's post on the network
Warnings/Notes| N/A
Everywhere around the ship things start to fall apart. Aside from the juddering as it shakes, lights start turning off, life support starts failing, the artificial gravity starts malfunctioning, and strange bursts of energy from the ship's engine causes electronics to stop working. And that's not all: it seems like every possible system that could be acting up is acting up.
In short, Legion World is a mess. And all they know so far is that some of the support staff may be responsible and that they're also possibly possessed by some kind of alien infestation that occasionally makes their eyes flash black.
It's time to get answers -- something that will be difficult with all the threats they're facing on the ship. Not only do the Legionnaires have to survive, the support staff will occasionally need rescue, too.
With the rate that systems are failing, the odds are not in their favor, especially since these malfunctions caused the escape pods to automatically launch without any crew in them. They'll have to work fast to stop the threat before everyone on Legion World dies.

"Think you can get moving again or do you need more time to warm up?"
If he had to sit there and be a human space heater a little longer, he'd do it.
no subject
Okay, actually.
As much as his ego didn't particularly appreciate the idea of being outdone by the common freezer, Donnie wasn't the type to be recklessly overconfident. He'd leave the macho feats of proving one's own toughness to his brothers, thank you.
"...maybe one more minute." He didn't want to allow himself anything more than necessary, though, not when there was no telling how much hell was still breaking loose while they took the time to regroup.
no subject
He really was trying not to curse in front of Donnie. Really. Ninja or not.
In situations like this, superhero situations, he was always in a different frame of mind anyway. He stopped being wartime Rich who could -- and did -- curse like a merchant spaceman, and went back to that comfortable place where he was cornball and called out "blue blazes" like a stupid catchphrase. (Not that it was really a catchphrase, but he'd always avoided cursing growing up because of how strict about language his dad had been. Habit.)
no subject
Not that they were going to be trying to fly up any more maintenance shafts, that was for sure.
"We're not going to be able to get at the controls for this section like this, though. Next best thing, I guess, would be to find the closest console outside of the affected area, see if I can remotely grab access from there?" He hadn't tried that kind of thing yet. Most of the systems he'd tried his powers on seemed to fall open and work for him fairly easily, but that was for things he knew they were already designed to do. If remote access hadn't been coded in already...that was iffier.
no subject
Without Worldmind's guidance he was damn near useless at figuring out tech stuff. He could figure out some basics and remembered a few things he'd learned but nothing really technical.
The ball was mostly in Donnie's court.
no subject
"That's the one we just came through, right?"
no subject
"Yep. So we need to go thataway," he said, pointing at the other doors.
It was right then that their omnicoms went back online and started beeping. After a short conversation with the others they had a working plan.
no subject
Gates appeared in through a disc of green light.
"Think fast, comrades!" he said, tossing them both vacuum flasks, and then disappearing again.
no subject
"Who knew their secret weakness was thermoses?" he said. "This is starting to feel a little 'who you gonna call?' now."
no subject
"So I'm thinking if I can override to get some heat back in the section we just came from, we can leave the lights out and hunt from there. No sense in expanding the field any more than we need to."
no subject
As they ran into action, Rich couldn't help but mutter under his breath, "I ain't afraid of no ghosts."
