And let's plotting............??

Jay, I have safely assumed that Alek was with Delta for this RP's timeline, if that is not the case, please let me know, I'll edit the part where I have mentioned it.

[Travis "Wizard" Oxford]

Going to wait for Adam before replying.

[Travis "Wizard" Oxford]

My inner Travis is excited to be RPing with DG again.

He is getting me to have a flash of red curls o.o

Oh dear!

[Steve Hamrick]

Just as long as Travis is an open-minded sort of person.

Just toss me a post or a private message if you want anything in particular found in the Shiva's computer.

[Travis "Wizard" Oxford]

Oh he always open minded. He is near identical of his GW version. Just as cocky as well.

Will do. For now just go with the flow if your muse. I'll try getting a post out tomorrow.

[Robert "Bobby" Oxford Jr]

Since I'm lazy to change accounts for this....I have no idea what I have Travis babbling on about regarding the governor. o.O

[Steve Hamrick]

Steve was kind of joking about that, honestly.

A "governor" is a part of the car that regulates the maximum speed it can attain by controlling the RPMs of the engine. Steve is half-wondering if the Asgard stuck something like that on the Shiva.

He's a car guy with a heavily after-market Dodge Charger in storage back on Earth. It's a Charger because I've watched too much Burn Notice in my life.

Maybe the engine damage has triggered an overzealous safety protocol that's throttling down power?

[Travis "Wizard" Oxford]

Well that was an epic fail on my part.....haha!!!! Since I'm not really a car geek I never caught the joke. While I have even seen a car engine.....I swear I won't know what to look for if my car broke down.

Oooooo I'm likening the sound off that idea. I'll wait for others input too.

[Aleksandr Kamarov]

I like DG's idea of putting up down on a planet to make repairs, I vote we go with that.

[Steve Hamrick]

That could be fun. Land planet, fix engine, fix computer safeties.

Only the planet isn't uninhabited.

[Travis "Wizard" Oxford]

Nothing is ever easy...hehe!

Who could be inhabiting it?

I'm having this funny idea that Mahadev coming to aide in disguise >.> Which in turn could turn into protecting them? >.> BTW, I should not be plotting at almost 8 am in the morning. Haha!

[Steve Hamrick]

I actually was picturing aliens who, while trying to distract the crew from repairs for their own reasons, can assume appearances from their victim's memory.

Oh, and we can see each other's distractions.

[Travis "Wizard" Oxford]

Ooooooooo. Yes please... xD to your idea.

[Steve Hamrick]

Going with it. Steve is currently having a conversation with his previous CO at MWTC. You'll learn later why this particular commander is important.

Ooh, and some thoughts over breakfast over the "progression" of what we see.

The first stage, the aliens choose a relatively harmless friend or respected person from your past, just to befuddle you and maybe get you talking to them. They want to stay at this level, so may flip through several friendly faces from your mind.

If you refuse to be distracted from work by this, they step it up. They choose a form that's more combative from your past, old enemy or relative you have bad feelings with, the more acrimonious the better.

If that doesn't work, it'll go up to dead people (which they hate doing, it's against their culture to assume the forms of the dead, but desperate times and measures) particularly if you feel guilt or blame over the death.

There is an alien physically there, but they can "cloud men's minds" as the phrase goes, appearing as multiple things to multiple people at the same time, including nothing if they want. And their true form is going to be downright horrifying.

[Travis "Wizard" Oxford]

Can the respected person dead or alive? Cos I two or three angles I'm thinking of taking it with T here.

If the above isn't a go, I suspect in Travis's case they might do the last phase. >.> For that I might need Jay's permission to play Frank Kepler, after plotting some

>.>

<.<

I'm evil.
