2D1D Chapter 11 – end of Day 1!

(Jan 10.15 pm // 04.15 am of the 6th here)

I can’t believe we made it until chapter 11 without a smacklehead, but it has arrived. For those in the unknown, a smacklehead is what happens when you smack your hands to your face and then smack that to the table. It is common Dispatch behaviour. Anyway Of course, with my luck, my internet broke just before the last chapter. You have no idea how relieved I feel to be able to be here in time. I feel peaceful.  Maybe even feel peaceful enough to forgive everything Anna has done. But I don’t know. She did hurt me. Friends should never hurt you. Friends should also not leave your death wish to serve as a distraction. But they weren’t probably really friends. Yet.

Anyway CLIFFHANGER ENDING!!! But I’m not shouting DAAAARRRVEEEEY. Maybe that’s because the explosion is coming sooner this time. And because the New Real is overall kinda lighthearted. Or at least more.

MCM promised day 2 would be the most exciting one. I am looking forward to it. I hope are joining in again tomorrow.  Anyway, here are the Chapter outlines

They arrive at the spaceport, Darvey complaining about his suit the whole time. Make their way past customs, security, and a busker who [ALIEN CIRCUS TRICK]. {Rok: To the left, past the corner, he sees a restaurant of sorts, offering what looks like free raw [FOOD ITEM].} The search warrant is still not approved, but they’re going to get in position anyway.
They find the hangar bay, put themselves into position, watching a small cargo vessel just sit there. Jyi asks if Darvey’s still hallucinating. They argue about the relevancy of hallucinations on his ability to do his job. She reads the air, warns him not to go getting himself killed, because he’ll take her down with him. He says he can make no promises… he goes where the wind takes him.
Before she can argue, a Tobor ship slides in beside the smaller one. Traders come out, discuss [SPORT SCORES]. Check time, realize they need to get moving. The cargo from the Tobor ship is moved into the smaller one. Ready for distribution offworld. Stick to the guidelines and everyone’ll have a blast. Darvey is pissed now: if they distribute that to Centaurians, it’ll be a massacre! Jyi is watching her window close, can’t get the warrant in time. She takes off, leaving Darvey behind: “Go ahead and make a distraction.”
{Rok: [possible ACT OF DISTRACTION here]}
He looks at the traders, looks at their weapons, readies himself for death… and then remembers “ready for distribution”, and can’t take it. He tries to take over the smaller ship with [STEALTH OR BRUTE FORCE], only to discover his gun is still empty. He takes cover as the ships race away, and a second later a grenade is fired into the cargo bay. It explodes.

I say goodbye to you now for today. I have to go play sinterklaas for my roommates and hide presents and write a poem. By tomorrow you should all know the following song. Because Sinterklaas kicks Santa’s Claus ass every day :)

jan over and out!
