( 001 ) voice | on board excursions with a slight twist.

[ There's a slight noise like thin metal yeilding somewhat under weight, followed by a tap and a hollow sounding bang and multiple wires sliding against and past each other. This is all topped off with a series of muttered obscenities as Cat struggles to get her communicator up to face level, considering that she is currently somewhat lacking in room. There is a pause in which all that can be heard are a few short, shallow breaths. This has been quite a workout. She sounds frustrated and incredibly reluctant; help isn't something she usually asks for. ]

Right.

Anyone here want to tell me the secret to untangling wires? 'Cause it's a lot harder than it looks, and it looks pretty damn hard from afar anyway.

[ It isn't very much to go on, but this is partially because Cat doesn't really want to tell anyone that she has gone and trapped herself in a rather narrow ventilation shaft, and has become caught up in some random, unexpected sea of wires. She's not idiot, so she's hardly about to just yank the wires out of wherever it is they lead. Not that she thinks it'd do much harm in the long run, considering she's found one relatively small set of wires on an otherwise enormous ship, but she'd rather not risk it.

... she was bored, alright? Crawling through ventilation shafts seemed like a really good idea at the time.

Where are you? I could help, if you'd like. [he's an untangling things expert, man.]

[OMG IT'S NOT LIKE HE KNEW OK. But he's not going to pry, despite how sketchy this all sounds.]

Well, start with one wire and work your way through untangling it. Then the next, and so forth. Some people try to pull a little at all of them if they think they see a way for one to get out, even if they're working on the other. Does that make sense?
