monolith revisited | mingle

[mythbuster]

One fine morning, a boyish voice broadcasts to everyone around base:

There's a lot left to explore inside the Monolith, so I'll be visiting it today. If anyone else wants to come along, feel free.

Once all interested parties are assembled and traveling arrangements sorted out, they're off to the Monolith! Given the length of the journey, this will be a real time investment. A one-way trip takes nearly two hours by flight. Traveling in silence? Boring. How should they occupy their time? Travel games? Joy rides in the Seamoth? Maybe even some old-fashioned chit chat??

Once they arrive, there's plenty to explore. With some sniffing around, they'll find a map revealing that the Monolith contains a cafe and common area, crew quarters, lab, med bay, and "special alien containment" room. However, it'll take some ingenuity to actually reach each area. And by ingenuity I mean bombs.

Which is why the group will need a demolition crew! Get to blasting those walls in logical places. Or illogical places. No one ever said it had to be a good demolition crew. With enough willful destruction, surely all of the the Monolith's secrets will be laid bare in no time.

There's lots of humans here... I'm sure someone needs to be washed way more than I do!

[He bathes! And does his laundry! He's a good boy?? He doesn't deserve this!]

Let's go... try and find someone else, yeah?

[tyrian]

But you're right here! [He could be washed right now! Feferi relents, though.] We'll have to look for someone who didn't just get out of the water.

[He exhales a sigh of relief and shakes his head. How could this happen to him, Hajime Hinata?? What a threat to be faced with.]

Well... a good number of us came along, I'm sure someone won't mind testing it out. Just make sure you ask first, instead of just surprising them with it.

[Who knows what it'll do? Also she could absolutely just spray him with it, there's literally nothing he can do to stop her.]

[tyrian]

[Why does Hinata have to keep trying to shoot down her great ideas? She glances over the instructions again.] But surprises are so much fun!






[She's going to use it on him in the middle of whatever he says next.]

Not when this kind of place could be dange--!!

[hopefragment]

Gyaaah!!

[Direct hit. Said crazy futuristic car wash smacks him right across his front, somehow enveloping his clothes and dragging a startled yell from his lips.

But, well. Once it's over, at least his clothes smell laundry-fresh, even if Hajime personally looks worse for the wear.]

C-C'mon, seriously?!

[tyrian]

[Feferi laughs uproariously.] Oh man, you didn't even try to get out of the way! Hook, line, and sinker!

[But anyway.] So, how'd it do?

[hopefragment]

Of course I didn't!

[WHY.JPG

Ugh... he sighs and checks himself for injuries first, turning this way and that. No injuries and... hm. He sniffs cautiously at his shirt sleeve, looking a little pleasantly surprised.]

I... guess it works? I don't know if that whole experience is worth it, though...

[tyrian]

It definitely was! [Feferi will just help Hinata make this decision.] You should have seen the look on your face!
