we're all a little mad here (+ SEC PING!)

[makedo]

This is Sgt Brad Colbert, Security. Seems like a few individuals have gone completely fucking mad and are attacking others.

Ground rules: don't kill them. Pretty fucking sure it's not their choice. Don't fucking engage unless you can handle yourself.

Stay safe, stay in groups of lucid individuals, stay frosty.

[ the text message is accompanied by a SECURITY PING. locked to the best of his ability with the new network to sec individuals is the following: ]

First priority is keeping everyone safe. That includes the fucking mental ones. Separate them, detain them, put them in fucking brig. Work together, I don't want anyone fucking dying.

[ and he adds, a moment later: ] Tyke's indisposed.

Roger all of that.

If any of the more dangerous people start attacking somebody, I can deal with them if I'm pointed in the right direction.

[makedo]

Copy that. Tell me how you'll deal with them and I'll make sure intel comes your way.

[brassbucket]

Nearly invulnerable, can absorb energy thrown at me, and strong enough to physically contain them and fly them to the brig. No violence other than what's directed at me, and that, I can handle.

Space cop is the job description, pretty much.

[makedo]

Fan fucking tastic. You're on.

[seidhr]

It would appear deck 008 is ready to assist.

[FILE ATTACHED: stayfrosty.img; a snapshot of the eighth passenger level, presumably, its hallway steeped in bitter winter.]

[brassbucket]

Good. I'll be on the move over the passenger quarters levels, try to head stuff off, too, but it's better when there's some coordination.

[makedo]

I hear anything, I'll pass it on. Check in every ten mikes.

[makedo]

Well, that's fucking great to hear. [ he is actually genuinely relieved, not that you'd notice. ] But just what the fuck did you do?

[brassbucket]

Define mikes compared to the timekeeping on the devices?

[ Dealing with new units of measurement of ... anything is nothing strange to him, but it's good to have a common reference. Back home, Worldmind was doing most of that for him, since he had all the data on record and could do the conversion, even when he was basically inside Rich's mind. But he can handle the differences himself, as he has to. ]

[makedo]

[ that's what he gets for fucking assuming. ]

Minutes. It's minutes.

I have something that'll keep people alert but it's in limited supply, and I can't claim it'll be fool-proof until we know exactly what's going on.

[makedo]

You made magical energy drinks?

private.

[darkart]

Yes.

[makedo]

How much of the stuff do you have?

private.

[darkart]

Four more doses. If you need to stay up to run SEC, then either pick three other people you absolutely cannot lose, or save them to force on someone who's causing a significant problem - but keep in mind the necessity of getting close enough to force them to down it.

[ Example: Severus is skeptical of anyone getting near Erik without losing a limb. ]

private.

[makedo]

No IVs of the stuff? Shit. I'll take it.

[ two and two should do the trick. give one or both of them to people who need to run damage control, keep two to keep people who're causing the biggest problems lucid. ]

How long do the effects last?

[jurisimpudent]

In the office & able to act as dispatch. Contact me if backup needed.

Wizards don't like needles.

Kept me up about 50 hours the last time I used it. You'll have an awful headache around the 48 mark, but I don't imagine you'll need a fainting couch for that.

[seidhr]

Believe it or not,
this was not my doing.

[Little shout-out to you skeptics out there.]

[milagros]

If you need restraints in the brig, I'll make myself available to provide.

( text )

[pushfall]

I can help. If you need an extra pair of hands somewhere.

[makedo]

I'll take your word for it.

So noted. Going to bring the stuff over or do you need me to pick it up somewhere?

[makedo]

Noted

[ and, a bit later ] thanks
if reports come in of people acting up, pass them on to Rider

[makedo]

pretty fucking sure we'll need some
what do you have in mind?
