Summary: Discussion and planning
····Haruka····················
Haruka brought some pizza in, and she has it out. Seeing Enyo, she waves. "Hi. I have um, business. I feel like there's something we should you know, check on. We use the power source in the GTC, but supposedly we like, have one in this, um, Forgotten City. That was like an Agharta colony that was attempted."
"I think we need to go down there, find out what's going on, and make sure it's safe."
····················
····Enyo····················
Enyo pulled out her headphones and looked to Haruka, "Oh hey.", smiling at the cutie and the pizza. "Oh wow, double the power? I'm not even sure I've seen what powers us.", scratching the back of her head. "Can we even transport something like that or just secure and harness it remotely?"
····················
····Haruka····················
Haruka grabs a slice of pizza for herself, just pepperonit his one, and gestures to Enyo to have all she wants. "Well um, yeah, we can get access to either. Obviously this one is convenient. The other one, in the Forgotten City, is in a mountain cave we can get access to via a portal that Harold Montague opened. So we can suit up, go in, and see what's happening. But we can't bring the energy source back with us."
····················
····Enyo····················
Enyo takes a slice, "Are you taking your hard suit? In case things get dicey....", biting into the pizza and sitting down across from Haruka. "This will be my first... adventure. So I'm not saying I'm a coward. But if a saber tooth tiger jumps out... I'm running for my life. I have no combat experience. But... maybe we can make a stealth suit to hide us, in advance?"
····················
····Haruka····················
Haruka nods. "I want to. If there's any time I'm going to put it on, it should be when we go to some weird colony of the Hollow Earth. I mean god, I've never done anything like this before. I've never gotten to USE the suit. But I have a weapon for it. I... probably have the ability to fly with it. I thiiiiiink I'm ready? Just hide behind me."
····················
····Enyo····················
"Nah, I'm gonna talk to Dirk and see if we can craft some cloaking devices even if they're one shot. Last thing we need is things go sideways and outnumbered by... whatever.", Enyo was a bit more paranoid about the journey. She had never been to the other side either.
····················
····Haruka····················
Haruka sits back a bit, nibbling on her pizza, not realy rushing. Just enjoying it. "Well yeah, that's an option. I mean, hiding. Unless it's a dinosaur and it can smell you..."
····················
····Enyo····················
"Yeah, or a techno squad. You've never really used the suit before. What if going through the portal activities a redundant emergency system or tracker you never knew about. Suddenly we are checking out a node and the boogie men come along.", raising a brow slightly. "I'm just saying. Who knows what might happen. I'd rather have a get out kit, in case things go sideways.", Enyo explains.
····················
····Haruka····················
Haruka bites her lip. Pauising a second, before then finishing a slice of pizza, and getting up. "Coke?" Getting one for herself, and one for Enyo if requested. "That would be really bad. Maybe what we need is scanning equipment. We like, go through the portal, look for danger, and if there is some, we just exit the portal immediately."
····················
····Enyo····················
"Yeah, I'll take one.", when asked about a Coke. Enyo then watches Haruka as she comes back, "That's a good plan, I like scanning equipment. Do we have people on the other side in case the portal goes wonky. None of this stuff might happen, but it's where my mind goes. As a chaos technician, I realize so many things can go wrong and I try to identify them. Being stranded would also suck.", Enyo grimaces, she wasn't trying to ruin the trip. Merely it was her first time doing something like this, everything seemed threatening. "I'm probably just paranoid."
····················
····Haruka····················
Haruka grabs TWO cokes then, and brings both over, putting one down, opening the other. "I don't know what's over there. We can contact Montague and ask. But uh... yeah. Maybe we bring more help then."
····················
····Enyo····················
"We could also get completely decked out for a big nothing burger. Everyone is laughing at us for the army we bring.", Enyo chuckled and took her coke. Twisting the cap off and eyeing Haruka. "Johan is coming? We can have him step through first.", she says jokingly. "Nah, he's a good guy."
····················
····Haruka····················
Haruka geatures toward the door. "He's one of the Hermetics who came for the fireworks right? We could ask him. I'm sure Rick is too busy. Oh I ran into him at the beach. Ended up showing him my suit. He seemed... surprised by the ideas you had."
She laughs, and shrugs. "But that's a conversation for another time. He's probably too busy to come along. But we can ask Johan. And see if he knows anyone else who wants to come. I'll contact Harold, and you can ask Johan?"
····················
····Enyo····················
"I'm pretty sure, just about every Hermetic I know... believes magic only comes from some dusty old tomes that have been practiced and rehearsed over five thousand times before. Plenty of them seem surprised by nearly anything that wasn't spoon fed.", Enyo says with a shrug. "Thankfully, I got wired differently."
"I can ask Johan for you.", sipping her coke. "I also met a Hollowed One. That was a new experience. First one I've ever seen.", Enyo brushes some hair out of her face. "I'm thinking of inviting him to some activities. Try and help him make friends. He upgraded his motorcycle with ... aliens. So I want to take a peek."
····················
····Haruka····················
Haruka grabs a second piece of pizza and digs into it. Nodding with firm agreement that it's good that Enyo thinks differently, but the other part makes her slow down, pause, and look. "They're like, doing their own stuff but don't want to join the Council? So they're like, completely on their own and undefended, right?" Better be careful. I wouldn't tell any of them where the GTC or the Lodge or anything is."
····················
····Enyo····················
"His story is... they got kicked from the council and the trads.", taking a bite of the pizza. "That's way above my pay grade and history lessons. I assume he's not funded. But yeah, I'm not bringing him here or over there. I'm just letting you know he exists so you know what is what, vs it being a surprise if you two ever meet.", Enyo then snacks on her pizza a bit. "He's cute though."
····················
····Haruka····················
Haruka giggles at that. "Okay. I mean I don't want to be like, a jerk about it or anything. I just know that like, it does matter. When you have the suit I have, you kiiiind of have to be careful and stuff, right? So um, anything else we should worry about? I'm going to finish my antigrav packs. You're going to work on invisibility. I'm going to ask Montague what's on the other side that we know about. You're going to see about Johan. Etiher of us can like, talk to Jason or Dirk when we see them. That everything?"
