Woah, okay, we got a problem! A real big problem!

[The camera at first is awfully shaky, but it's soon clear enough that Morph is outside - and on the nearly-destroyed roof of the X-Mansion, given that the camera passes over a view of a couple of caved-in rooms from above before uprighting itself to focus on the horizon.

The view of the treeline so soon after dawn would probably be more lovely if it weren't for the growing plume of smoke.]

D'you see that?!

[The camera zooms in close enough now to show the suspicious glow in the near-distance, and the dark plume of smoke in more detail. Morph sounds panicked, but they're also slurring their words, more than someone who's just woken up should be doing.]

That's the training grounds... lots of trees around there. I'm gonna check it out, but I need... I need a minute.

[Now they sound distinctly queasy. Oops.]


(OOC: This is in regards to the training grounds fire!)

Why do you need a 'minute'? Are you acquiring supplies?

[He was right to not trust the snake people, right? RIGHT? But he's here to help. ]

[mightymorphin]

Nooo.... I might be a teensy bit hung over.

[thecodexabides]

What? Are you injured?

[Fun fact: space marines can't get drunk or hung over. Unless they're Space Wolves, the werewolf furries of the Space Marines, which Gadriel is NOT.]

[mightymorphin]

I guess you could say I hurt myself having too much fun last night.

[thecodexabides]

There is a lesson here.

'Fun' is bad. [He has NEVER felt more vindicated. Fun is HERESY.]

Are there people in danger? [He was already on his way to the fire, but he still didn't know this place well.]

Heavens to Betsy. Don't go there 'till I'm there with you, ya hear me?

[mightymorphin]

Yes ma'am. I'm gonna just sit here and breathe in some fresh air.

[southernchere]

Have you eaten anything? Had tea? Coffee? Those are some home remedies I know.

[there are plenty more that could help with hangovers, but... they need to go on a supply run again.]

— I got some pain killers left over we can share. I just popped two just an hour ago.

[mightymorphin]

There's no time for that!

... I can down a painkiller, but that fire's gonna spread fast. We have to get out there as quick as we can.

[southernchere]

And you ain't gonna be much good to us if you're tossin' cookies in a rose bush!

[yes, it's spreading fast, but one slip up like barfing lead into more trouble, or losing a life.]

At least sip a lil' something while we're heading over.

[What the fuck--]

I'm on my way there.

[...] Are you drunk, Morph?

[mightymorphin]

Uhhh I was drunk about four hours ago? Now I mostly feel like regret.

[laserguy]

[LOUD SIGH.]

Drink water, suit up. And I'll see you there.

[mightymorphin]

Yes boss.
