Operation Reignition

[rekindlemods]

Who: Anyone who wants to participate in the event!
Where: Assorted places in and around District 3!
When: Sunday afternoon (the 30th)
Summary: POWER IT UP AND GO SHOPPING.
Warnings: None.

By late morning, it's obvious that there's something going on down by the bridges to District 3. Even if you missed the announcement on the network, it's pretty obvious that something is going to happen; townspeople mill about with interest as people set up tables. Irene and Mai are roaming the area, Mai mostly sticking to the medical teams standing by while Irene organizes the rest of the group. Keener eyes might spy one of the brothers responsible for the network, slipping off into the Third District through gates that stand open, but still guarded against any visitors who might attempt to approach before things are ready to go.

Off to one side, there's a shaded area, tents and a few chairs where visitors can wait to be allowed entry. There's a table full of water bottles and light snacks tucked up against the wall, to fortify you against the heat of the afternoon - and it is warm, and only going to get warmer. The natives seem to have accepted the baking sun as the normal way of things, but be careful that you don't get heatstroke.

At about half an hour past noon, someone brings out a little podium and sets it in front of the gate. Irene climbs up on it, holding a microphone in front of her mouth - her voice echoes from a number of speakers set up through the area.

"Alright, could I have my first group of volunteers over here, please? We've got your instructions ready for you to enter the district."

Looks like it's showtime. Are you ready?

((ooh; Event start! OOC information can be found here and here.))

"Well, hopefully everyone makes a quick recovery afterward."

And, y'know, that the generators don't just keep passively leeching from everyone forever.

"I'm sure they will. They wouldn't dare send us out here otherwise."

Legolas would have a fit otherwise. And he knows that he's not the only one. More than enough people would raise objections, possibly even become violent.

[drank_the_milk]

"Yeah... I guess not."

She's not entirely sure about that, but she really wants to believe it's true. So at least for the moment, she will.

[bow_of_the_galadhrim]

And he wants to reassure her of that. He knows that, if anything were to happen to the groups sent to recharge the generators, anger will spread among those that hadn't. He's lived long enough to know at least that much about people.

"Have no worries. We'll be alright."

[drank_the_milk]

"Shake on it?"

Laughing and winking, she holds out her hand. Might as well get started somehow.

[bow_of_the_galadhrim]

He takes a moment, thinking back. He knows he's seen this gesture before, so foreign as it is to those in Middle Earth. Legolas takes her hand and gives it a firm shake though, less than a minute after she offered it.

Yuna shakes back eagerly, laughing to let off some of her tension.

"I'm gonna hold you to that 'we'll be all right' thing, you know."

[bow_of_the_galadhrim]

"You are more than welcome to."

He could handle being responsible for something of that sort. Especially when, thinking things through clearly, the people that had brought them here for help would have a lot to lose if anything happened to them.

"Nice! It's good to have reliable friends."

Grinning, she shakes once more before letting go. Her own grip is firm and confident.

[bow_of_the_galadhrim]

As is his own but it's clear that his handshake is careful, conscious of his strength in comparison to that of others.

"It is." He agrees with that easily.

[drank_the_milk]

"Okay, then let's do this thing so we can go home and relax!"

Yuna grins, pumping a fist in the air confidently.

Legolas can only laugh softly at how exuberant she seems. He hasn't seen anyone get so excited over a mission or quest like this in... a long time.
