[Game 21] Through The Train

[arsgoetia]

The marbles from each group are inserted into the pupils in each door. The eyes blink, unnervingly, then seal shut. All at once, the lights dim down in each compartment and fade back to quiet darkness . . . though you still see the occasional spark of magic along the windows and edges of the train.

You still have no electricity, and your magic is still dampered.

You can, at least, proceed through, either back or forward along the train. The compartments are arranged in approximately this order:

[#1 - ??? - Open] - [#2 - Sariel's Group] - [#3 - Elluka's Group] - [#4 - Maon's Group] - [#5 - ??? - Open] - [#6 - ???] - [# 7???]

[arsgoetia]

[You steady them, but be careful you don't get shocked as well.]

[defendless]

[clambering up the nearest tall thing that isn't the elf, so like, a chair or something, and trying to get a good angle.]

[beleaving]

[You could just climb him he's solid.]

[aethericbody]

I can give you a lift up.

[defendless]

You'll probably get knocked down, so take care.

[but not like, arguing.]

[aethericbody]

As long as you can get up there.

[am a helper]

[defendless]

Thanks!

[holy fuck that scaled hand is strong

and yes they are reeling backwards when the chain snaps because yeah that is. so much force.]

[aethericbody]

[#dragons]

[stumbles backwards, but basically lets go and catches Zeno again so they're at least falling vertically instead of completely toppling over against god knows what blood over there on the seats]

[defendless]

[at least he's light once the DISGUSTING AMOUNTS OF RAW STRENGTH aren't adding force to the problem. he is in fact small and scrawny.

breathless:]

Nice catch!

[aethericbody]

[they're still in a hilarious pile on the floor next to Haurchefant and Fon]

[exhales] Thank you. Are you all right?

[beleaving]

[Well you know, a little electrocity only ever does some AOE damage.] Zeno, can you break the chains? I can lift him down if you can.

[defendless]

[nods! HOWEVER HE'S UP HERE, IDK, IT'S A WORK IN PROGRESS. chairbalance or wol boost.]

Zeno will do his best.

[reaching for a part of the chain that won't harm the victim if it's pulled really tight, worms his scaled hand under it and wrenches, hard, at like ten times the strength of your average human. electricity can get fucked.]

[arsgoetia]

It snaps. Are you gonna let that chair & friend just crash on their head?

[beleaving]

[I AM A BIG STRONG ELF HERE TO CATCH THE HEAVY CHAIR AND PERSON Fon's probably also here?]

[redetermined]

[YEAH FON IS HELPING AND SLIGHTLY SUPERHUMAN UNDER STRESS. THEY GUD]

[beleaving]

[We're gonna flip a guy over and lower him to the ground right-side up. Maybe even see about getting those bindings off.]

[arsgoetia]

[. . .]

[redetermined]

[We got this. Fon has a pocket knife and can probably get any locks open.]

[beleaving]

[Go team heavy lifting]
