driftfleet | [text.] gdit furiosa stop yelling at mountains

Who: Max Rockatansky
Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action: N/A unless iyou got something in particular in mind! :)
When: RECENTLY OKAY! After this goes down.

[Darn it, Furiosa, don't go yelling in the mountains, huh? Max would use voice or video, but the winds up here are howling and he'd really play the more logical route, in that case. So cue the weirdly-calm-panicked click-clack typing. He's really getting used to shit going horribly wrong around him; though at least this time it's not his fault, okay? He's just eternally cursed and you shouldn't make mistakes around him.

Because then avalanches happen. And you get caught up in them.

He's pretty lucky to have had a tree to hold onto, until the damn thing passed. He's cold as hell, but he's not in danger; that's Furiosa, so with that in mind:]

need assistance

friend's missing, lost in mountains - avalanche. not sure if she was swept up in it or not. known as captain furiosa, about 5'9", short-cut hair, prosthetic arm, scowls only half the time. been traveling together for last few weeks managing different jobs, recently crossing mountain terrain.

got separated from her and have been on the look out.

nothing yet, except a jacket.

can send coordinates.

can pay, too.

not a lot of time, snow's bad on the body. not good.

[Whatever she thinks of Max these days, someone with a name like Captain Furiosa needs rescuing? Sign me the fuck up.]

can I borrow the jacket

[Of course that might be taken entirely the wrong way.]

[It's lucky for Max, he knows full-well Katie's worth in a search.]

long as you give it back to her

she probably could use it right about now

[WHO ME WORRIED NEVER I NEVER WORRY ABOUT NOTHING EVER I DON'T CARE ENOUGH TO WORRY NOT ME NOT OL' NON-WORRY MAX ROCKATANSKY HAHAHA.]

[She honestly wasn't expecting him to take her the right way, so points for you, Max. She's beginning to think you're less a jerk and more a... well, she knows a redcap who's just as grumpy as you are.]

I'm sure it's too big for me anyway and smelly where did you see her last

[He's totally a jerk.

But he's a worried, loyal, dad-jerk.]

mountainside, lots of snow, lots of trees.
you know how to read coordinates??

of course I do

[Look, read and understand are two different things. She bites her lip. Aren't there multiple places he could be? She'll ask someone for directions, it's fine.]

what are they?

numbers that show on a map where someone is.

if you can't read maps, might need someone to help you.

[You're a kid, but Max puts more faith in kids to learn things quick.

Kids are very, very capable.]

[Actually more capable just a tad here: she knows what coordinates are, just not how to know to follow them without a handy Adstring communicator to lead her right to them. But she doesn't comment, just follows up with a patient-sounding question:]

what are the coordinates

Edited 2016-09-23 22:03 (UTC)

[He sends them. Um. Good luck and godspeed, child.

... Ah, right. Child.]

be careful

[didn't anyone tell you that the cold was terrible and evil and why the fuck would you go into the snow]

send me coordinates

[Easily done. She'll find the coordinates appear on her screen very quickly; he's mapped out a lot of the area personally, so giving her a flat, clear imagine through their tech is something he can certainly achieve after his near year aboard the fleet.]

know any magic tracking?

[you're a blessing, Max. She looks over what he sends her on her way to the shuttles]

some, doesn't always work but i'll give it a go when i get there

are you alright?

[Max begs to differ on being a blessing, but.]

mfine, it barely hit me

just cold, little tired, but nothing new.

more worried about the captain.

[As in, he's got her name as a blaring panic alarm in his dome.]

okay. we will find your captain

[he doesn't seem the type to accept certainties easily like that but she sends it all the same]

this was not how i intended to give you a demonstration you know

she's not my captain
close friend

[It's weird to write that, but he doesn't... have the time or patience for being modest about his friendships now. Even if they freak him out. Right now, her health and safety kind of overrides all that.]

no better time than to help someone.

same difference, still your something

[usually there would be teasing of some kind, some sort of off-hand comment, but for once she keeps it to herself]

i suppose so

been in an avalanche before. they're not fun

so i've learned.

advice???

[He usually hates asking, but.

Sometimes he has exceptions.]

dont lose your temper on a mountain in the middle of winter

cousin told me after that if it happens again to stay calm, try to make it so you can breathe, fire magic is bad

pretty much sit and wait until you are found, because the snow hardens like rock

[ -- she comes to this woefully late. and as such, she feels a pang of unpleasant guilt roiling in her gut. while she was off playing moxie or spirit or savvy (always the spy!) horrible things were happening.

terse: ] Max. Situation report, please.

i'm fine, just sore. had a tree to hold onto.

still looking for furiosa. might have been carried further, avalanche went down pretty far.

she made a loud noise. couldnt stop it. dont think she realized.
i wouldnt have before the ice planet.

[He'd did a lot of reading after nearly freezing in a lake, okay.

... He's so worried, Peggy. :(]

How can I help?

Edited 2016-09-05 17:35 (UTC)

could use any kind of shuttle for searching.
land-based might work, but worried about driving over her by accident

[Even if it's likely she wouldn't last long under the snow...

It's easier to resuscitate someone when their bones and guts aren't smashed.]

Without a pilot augment, I can't exactly steer one of ours to where it would have to be. But I might be able to source something on the ground.

anything that speeds up search.

time is even more critical when its this cold.

Max, it's Wanda. What can I do to help?

help me find her

alive

[As long as they can get her out of there, they can deal with any sickness or injury.

Just.

Don't die.]

I can meet you planet-side. What are your coordinates?

I've been looking for her, but it's good to know we can narrow it down a little.

I don't need paying for that. She's my friend, I want to make sure she's okay.

[... Well, if there's any time for him to try to get used to horses texting, it's about now.

Fuck it.]

good that she has friends.

the more eyes, the better.

[It's honestly the network's audio-to-text features. His hooves are way too big for texting. ]

Of course, she's a great person.

That's what I was thinking.
