CB's Grim Frequencies IC -- COMPLETE

[gribble]

T-dawg waited for everyone else to exit the store and got in the car last, with a final look around for anything suspicious. He sat shotgun in his usual looming silence and didn't think to second guess JR's directions, though the whole trip he was watching for the white Hummer, as if half expecting it to materialise out of nowhere.

Once JR pulls to a stop, he sits tight, straining for any sign of the mysterious vehicle.

OOC: I assume a Perception check will be needed[roll0]

During the trip, Feral says to no one in particular, "So, what the hell are we doing, exactly?"

 

[Rubberneck]

J.R. is just as confused as everyone else.

"Fer the record, I still dun like dis."

 

[Forged Fury]

When no one bothered to answer Feral, Cyril spoke up, "You know how the Bun-Bun had a message for the FCC? Well, this bluetooth headset had a message for me. I know, crazy. But crazy seems to be the new normal. We're supposed to stop a Hummer from crossing the railroad tracks. I'm just the messenger, don't shoot me."

 

[KirayaTiDrekan]

"So, now we're doing what the voices in your head tell us to do? That's awesome."

Even with his biting sarcasm, Feral gets out of the car and sits on the hood, arms crossed, ready to bolt in to action when the time comes.

"It's a test," Death Otter demurs firmly. "We're not doing this thing's bidding. We're finding out who it is, and what they really want. For the record, my money's on the CIA doing some covert domestic op using the FCC as a cover story."

She puts Cyril's bluetooth back in her ear and turns it back on.

"Pull across the road here...just block both lanes. Anyone got a gun? We can just blow its tires if it shows."

 

[Rubberneck]

J.R. gives DO a look.

"Let's try not to make da news again. Wait a sec, wah did da voice sound like? Were they angry or hostile or did they sound more urgent?"

J.R.'s memory flashes back to when they passed the train. How long ago did they pass it?

"yinzes how long ago did we pass that train? How long until it gits here? yinz think maybe we were sent here to help? If not we could also use da train to our advantage. Hummer stops fer da train and we block it in, git answers."

(OOC :: What side of the tracks are we on?)

 

[Forged Fury]

"Could we just block the road? Pretend like the car is broken down and flag them down long enough to keep them from crossing until the train passes?" Trying to see past the heads of JR and T-Dawg, he asked, "Are there crossing guards? Anyone know how to re-wire them?"

Cyril was clearly just fishing for ideas.

 

[CanadienneBacon]

OOC: The SHO is parked on the east side of the rail tracks. There are crossing gates at the railcrossing.

 

[Shayuri]

Death Otter rolled her eyes.

"If it stops for the train, we win," she explains impatiently. "The whole thing was about stopping it before it gets to the train. And there's really no time to argue. Either drive out or...you know what? Nevermind."

She pops her door open, gets out of the car, and walks out into the road in front of the tracks.

Oh dear. Does she still have that gun?
