Seraphina Martel 2: This Time It's Personal
I am going to assume some the shenanigans I have in mind are okay here and try to keep them tamer. The story I mentioned in the off-lines thread is called The Fall of Doc Future, and I identify with one of the two principle characters extremely strongly. I also like the "this is what superpowers might really mean" angle to the story. I realize that it's blatant fanfic wish fulfillment type stuff; the point, though, is dealing with the unexpected from you, because it's fun to play with you. I've become very jaded about roleplaying over the past couple of years, which I haven't talked about because, unlike everyone else, you've been steady and reliable. I didn't want to poison the "relationship" so to speak.
"I can try. Any idea where to start?"
Since we're Sideways, we have plenty of time. I'm not sure what I should be looking for, so I'll start by examining some of the robots. How lifelike are they? I wonder if they're good enough to feel like humans when touched. Best try with a stick first.
If that doesn't reveal anything, then I have a plan:
My next move is electric shock. Staying Sideways, I take a jaunt to the nearest town, smash down a door in the police station, leave a note explaining that evil robots and a superpowered madwoman have kidnapped me and are trying to kill my parents, sorry about the door and the stuff. I take as many stun guns and tazers as I can find, plus extra cartridges for the latter. I leave a note telling them to contact Seymour Horowitz, along with his phone number. He's one of my primary bankers, and he'll arrange payment for lost equipment and repairs.
I've done this kind of thing before. A lot, actually. Just not since going to St. George's. I've been told I need to respect boundaries more. Oh well.
Armed with things that produce a bunch of volts at the contact, I shoot tazers at each robot or active stunguns, then leave the devices suspended in normal time to make sure I shock all of them. Then I can re-enter regular time and see if that does anything.
