Behold my power!

...

The ceiling-bot turned, the rubbery limbs of the combat suits flopping like empty skins. The limb holding the bag telescoped, offering the octomorph the cephalopod specific protective suit, and fanning its other arms to offer the humaniform newly reinstantiated a choice of clothes. It made a satisfied sounding musical sequence of tones.

Making a full-body suit out of fabric that could accomodate an octopus's full range of movement caused me too much mental trouble, so Hugo gets the suit made out of some sort of smart gel. Its default mode is transparent, so he can show off all those lovely chromatophores. There's an optional partial frame assist to help his spineless nature overcome gravity. Basically something for his tentacles to brace off.

Anywho, I'm going to be off on a work trip for the rest of this week, so I won't be able to internet until I get back.

Quickly! We must do all the things now!

Since Overcast's mentions of people might have confused other players and he might want to share that info on the past thirteen hours around, here we go:

Scott tends to back up in the afternoon and worked a bit late since a maintenance technician (Kurt Merring) got a nasty laceration trying to capture a creepy that was acting erratically.

The big events that would influence several people were:

Big birthday party for Security Chief Red Harkner last night. Entire security staff who weren't on duty attended and a few of the other station personnel. Security's a bit insular. No-one's really how it's possible to get a tricked out Fury falling down drunk, but she manages it.

Today is a contact experiment on the psi-amp. It shouldn't happen for several hours, they're currently doing the work-up.

Otto von Weisscroft, token octopus, has organised a party in the recreation section this morning again. He throws them pretty reuglarly. Invites pretty much everyone who's got a day off. He books all the pods, gets up at a ridiculous hour (about 4am), goes to the rec-section and potters about overseeing the party room getting set up to his exact specifications, getting extremely drunk and slash or drugged up in the process. He declares the doors open at nine then presides over the party like an eight legged mad hatter for the rest of the day.

He works in HR.

It's nothing hugely out of the ordinary. Station life is pretty dull, so there's a lot of parties.

I know quite a few of you are pretty busy and then having things like Anima, Exalted and Dresden Files taking up a lot of your limited free time, but this is getting silly!
