⇨ POLARIS 3.0
Who: Everyone!
When: Day 115
Where: Polaris
What: On the morning of day 115, a couple hours before the technicians would come to pick up the test subjects, the escape plan will officially come into effect. If your character has been left out of the loop up till this point, feel free that someone hastily explains the plan during the initial phase! The meat of everything else will be played out via megathreads and any private toplevels people want to make.
Warnings: Probably violence.

PEER REVIEW↴ The plan starts with getting everyone out of their cells. Childermass is going to be using his Gilded Mark to enhance his shadow movement abilities, unabling him to teleport himself and other people out of containment. If your character has other ways of escaping they are free to pursue that, but on a base level, it can be assumed that everyone gets out thanks to Childermass. (Thanks Childermass!) Once everyone has been removed from their cells by some means or another, they will be forced to split into teams as swiftly as possible, as the moment people start breaking out, negative attention from the staff will start building. The area is poorly guarded at first, but as people become aware of the breakout, more will arrive. Gild, speaking on behalf of her inside plant, will say that those that 1) want to get their stuff back, 2) want to find Ignatius, should get the assistance of their allied Deltas to access sector A5. From there, they will have to access Polaris's storage in A3, a neighbouring sector, and find access to C2, the station where Ignatius is being held. They should expect to be met with armed resistance, but with any luck allies will be there to assist them. In general, characters will be most effective if they back one of these major objectives: ► TEAM LOOT: This team is trying to get back the items and pets that were confiscated when the group was brought into Polaris. Their objective, according to their allies on the inside, is to get to A5, and then make their way to A3. The important thing is being able to locate their stuff among a sea of other items, and to make it through security in order to reclaim it. Gild's plant has said that they will assist with this. After getting these items, Team Loot may wish to merge with Team Rescue. ► TEAM RESCUE: This team's primary focus is to get to A5 and then make their way to C2. If desired, they may wait for or join with Team Loot, or they may strike out ahead in order to take advantage of the element of surprise. The key factors are obtaining a way to access C2, as well as being prepared for armed conflict with the technicians guarding it, as well as possibly the Mother of Invention herself. Though, the ideal is that Gild will be distracting here at that time. ► TEAM DISTRACTION: This team can do their thing wherever they please, as their main intent is to sew general discord and distract the staff from the teams doing more important things. They should be prepared for armed resistance, but what tactics they pursue beyond that point are highly variable. ► TEAM FORTRESS: This team is attempting to set up a protective base of operations in the original sector in order to survive the conflict and protect their noncombatant comrades. How they accomplish this is also highly variable. Other objectives may exist, of course, and can be made with their own separate top levels. Chunks of these megathreads will have to be played out in summary form, so when characters are simply trying to get from place to place and specifics aren't necessary, feel free to stick to that format. Assume that everyone is already out of their cells for the purpose of the megathreads. Here is a shitty map of how the sectors connect, from a side view of the central Polaris hub. |

"I'm going to go ask for mine, from... one of the other supervisors." He's pretty sure all the supervisors have access to the egg dimension, now that everyone's getting magic back and everything, and there should be a few more conscious than Carly.
no subject
She's plenty conscious at least- or enough to talk. She just doesn't feel up to pulling up the energy for much of anything. "Well if they're in there, now's as good at time as any to start distributing. The more 'connected' we are, the better."
no subject
"And it'll really drive our success home! Nothing says freedom in the carnival like... hearing random chatter on the main channels, at random points of day or night...?" It sounds sillier the longer he talks, but it'd felt very true when he began, thinking of their various radio-restricted imprisonments.

no subject
He'd been a little distracted and preoccupied with his own headspace, most of that outing. But they had at least had radios.
no subject
She folds her hands together, sighing again. "...I can't wait...until we can go back to that..."
no subject
"In the meantime! We'll always have wordgames."
Even if they do devolve into terrible forced puns, people playing truth or dare, and other noisy shenanigans.
should we fade out you figure?
"...We do, I guess... ...I look forward to them, anyway..."
let carly sleep
"Did you want to rest? Sleep's supposed to be good for healing..."
yes...
no subject
He thinks, anyway. But no need to suggest otherwise and invite trouble.
no subject
...And soon enough she's out like a light.
