Crosspost!Round TwoOkay, while I work on the new map, here's what happened (Initiative order has been abandoned, but will be rerolled in case combat happens.):Kerracor moves over to lend Hiru a hand with passenger debarkment, but by the time the wookiee makes it to the hatch, the passengers seem to have it whipped. Four refugees come out between now and then, with bemused expressions on their faces, as if someone has just told a joke. A Falleen male awaits his turn to debark, and whispers conspiratorially to Hiru: "What's an airlines?"Ka Jor heads down the berm to retrieve his lightsaber, none too soon as a stray 'blade' of bladegrass nearly ventilates the seat of his Jedi robe. He reactivates the Jedi weapon, and to his relief, a bright blue shaft of light accompanies the trademark "wheezhah-mroom" sound generally associated with lightsabers. [If you want a different color, Ka Jor, lemme know, and I'll edit.]With Denny's help, Tilon (barely) manages to get the STAP moving toward him [and by that I mean, if Denny ain't helping, it ain't moving]. Now that inertia has been overcome, it should only take about 2 more rounds to get the STAP next to the berm, where Tilon (or someone) can commandeer it.No one can hear Pog's comments about using the STAPs to ferry passengers over the bladegrass, over the bladegrass. Which is probably just as well, since the most recently depiloted one now has holes in the aerial platform and is further away than 20m of liquid cable would reach. Still, Pog is now standing, and in possession once again of his gear.Shom has been looking around, when his eyes fix on a point southeast of the hull. Shom holds that thought until he can poke his head in the hatch yet again (this time, nearly coming face to hiney with a Bith female on her way out). Deftly dodging the sizable obstacle, he manages to squeeze off a question to the remaining passengers. Of the party, only Hiru can hear the question:"Does anyone here have any experience with handling and/or riding Gormaloks?"To his surprise, two hands go up: one, an older human woman, who introduces herself as Alice Chenn-Mar, who 'used to do a bit of thread-farmin' back in the day,' the other, a Falleen male who declines to give his name, but can 'ride anything.' Shom directs these folks to come to the front of the line, and the other passengers oblige. They'll come out in the next "wave" of refugee debarkments.The Duro resurfaces, and speaks (again, loudly enough) into his comlink: "Okay, folks, we've got two choices, the way I see it. We can borrow a couple of the refugees who know a little bit to see if we can't ride those gormaloks out of here, OR, we can use our combined weaponry to blast our way out right about... there." Those who turn to look at him see him point to a spot in the southeast corner of the cleared area."What's everybody think?"</blockquote>
