A WASTE TO LIVE: VOTING POST FOR THE CONCLUSION

[ximilian]

● ● ● A WASTE TO LIVE: VOTING POST FOR THE CONCLUSION

The time has come for the team to decide how they wish to proceed through the conclusion of the mission. As a refresher, this is what is known to the characters prior to the conclusion:

• the Dai'a Svar are aware that the spark is draining on the planet's life force, but will persist in using it regardless

• Kovacs has recovered the orb native to this planet after the death of Kal Chomai

• the orb from Amaryllis Grove continues to masquerade as Jial Bryn, who is currently in the Dome in the Roof

• something, or someone, is able to nullify the effect of the limestone on powers, as evidenced by it no longer working on the city walls

· THE VOTE

For this mission, the team can decide on two things, and each character gets one vote to either suggest a solution or +1 one suggestion of their choice.

For the vote, your character has to decide on:

1   How will the crew obtain the Jial Bryn orb?

2   Will they do anything regarding the fight between the Dai'a Svar and the people in the city?

Keep in mind that characters are not required to vote on either of these, nor are they limited to these two choices. If you think anything else needs to be addressed, do so here.

Voting ends February 25. The conclusion goes live February 28, when characters will return to the station.

Potentially Apprehending

[mienai]

Hagakure thinks maybe it could be a good idea to try and launch as many of the orbers available at Jial in one swoop, in an attempt to at the very least apprehend her...! (Or, you know, if orbers want to try and kill her -- but Hagakure won't be actually gunning to kill in this effort, just beat up until a surrender might happen.)

She will try to use the blobtastic powers she inherited from Rita to either wrap around Jial or grow larger in size (or at least grow her hands in size) to try and literally grab Jial for the others.

Whatever the other, older folks in the crew choose, she'll readily gravitate towards instead, but whatever the choice she is absolutely here to try and buy them all time to do it with these newfound powers she's got -- albeit clumsily.

Daisy, while without her powers, is willing to try and take down Jial. She has her gun on her, and while she won’t want to kill her. Daisy isn’t against harming her in a non fatal way.

However, if she sees Jial is harming Orbers or innocent people she’ll try to get them out of harms way.

violence is always the answer and while anakin won't necessarily be aiming for murder, he's not going to go out of his way to keep her alive or in one piece.

he still has his normal powers so he could potentially assist with keeping her still. alternatively he also has a laser sword to slice off body parts if it ends up being more difficult.

+1

[coordination]

We all for that kinder way out but Yzak also only does that for so long and is more on the not going out of his way to avoid killing AND if it came down to it he's willing to bloody his hands up with Anakin if it's gotta be done. Fuck an orb.

He didn't power swap, so he's got his Charter Magic to offer in terms of defense for the team/innocents, and can do things like binding magic to buy even a few seconds. Also general Coordinator speed/strength/reflexes are at play and he's got a knife and a GUN 🔫 that he isn't afraid to use

+1

Ziggy will recommend anyone with the powers make it so that they can get over to the roof now that the Tower orb has been received, so that they can provide back-up against Jial. If nobody is able to, she will attempt to get there ASAP via jetpack at full power, but she's not sure she'll be able to make it there in time to provide any aid.

If she is, however, she will absolutely try to help apprehend/fight Jial, especially if no other plans work in trying to get back the orb.

+1 Apprehend or just have someone grab the Orb

[astudyinviolet]

Once someone grabs the Orb, they all go back to the station. Since Sherlock isn't sure they should get involved with a conflict that existed before the Orbs arrived, he's not as worried about making sure the people of this world's problem is solved before they go. Wei Wuxian's ghosts, trying to prevent loss of life on both sides, and removing the Orbs from the equation seem enough. The Orbers can't make the final decisions for them.

However, Sherlock's completely in the wrong area and concentrated on the Tower to truly know the situation, so all he can do is wish people luck.

+1 here and also +1 Sherlock’s suggestion

[rootlessly]

Vash is of course up for the version of this plan that doesn’t include murder, and he’s fast, so while Hagakure has her grabbed he can try to snatch the Orb so it’s forced to go back to the station with all of them.

He also has a gun he will use (nonlethally) to protect himself
