Text. stuck in the middle with you.

[theroadwarrior]

Who: Max Rockatansky
Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action: Starstruck
When: Today, for a short little glitch post.
(Also warning for some serious death talk in a thread below.)

[Max doesn't ask for a lot in life. Food of some kind so he doesn't starve. Water so he doesn't have to drink questionable things when its not there. A lack of ultra violence or cannibals. You know. Typical things. And he's been pretty good about behaving himself, keeping out of the way, not having any issues to speak of.

And then shit like this happens.

He's fiddling around at the little desk in the cargo bay when something peculiar happens. His screwdriver sticks to his hand. And no, he's been very hygienic, thank you — more so than usual — so there's really just one reason this is happening. He realizes it about when the empty tea cup on the desk also moves to stick to his arm.

Glitch.

So it goes. His time on the Starstruck the next few days are terribly bleak for him. See: the multitude of things that have somehow find a strange pulling gravity around him. It's not metal, really, it's anything. He's a Katamari character, and things just sort of fly and stick and he has to pry them off with way too much force necessary. Or they just fall off. In the kitchen, a plate falls off him at last, but shatters on the ground.

At one point, he just stays in the chair he's at, because if he stands up... Well...

It's stuck to his ass.

Records, hair pins, food (ugh), anything people leave behind...

And yes, people. People also stick to him.

This is the literal worst day of his life. Obviously. All the trauma that came before this is nothing.]


don't keep anything sharp or explosive on the starstruck right now.

might need remedies for nagging captains soon.



still tempted to saw the augment out of my neck sometimes.

I still count ten pins missing. This is unacceptable.

Action

[kill_switch]

[She doesn't bother asking, she just shows up. There is obviously something very wrong going on if he's willingly depriving himself of weapons.]

[Checking all the Max places ...]

[theroadwarrior]

[Max can be found hopping awkwardly on one foot in the kitchen, attempting to remove a tea kettle off his leg. This isn't the weirdest thing he's been caught doing, so that's nice. Just, uh. Watch yourself, Furiosa.

Also, a cuss waterfall. That's Max's description at the moment.

A cuss waterfall.]

[kill_switch]

[That's certainly unexpected but yes, this place has shown her some weird things. She freezes for a fraction of a moment to assess the situation, and then walks up to grab the kettle and help trying to pry it off. ]

Nice vocabulary. Do I want to know how you managed this?

[theroadwarrior]

[It's really... stuck on there... good.

Careful, Furiosa, you'll hurt you butt falling whenever it actually comes off.]

It's — umm.

[a sigh]

Glitch.

[kill_switch]

[Although she could see how he was struggling with it, it's not until she's got a grip on it that she's seeing just how firmly it's attached. She grunts, furrowing her brow as she yanks on it, then plants one foot on the ground, one on the counter behind him, and locks both hands firmly on the handle. Goddamn it, Atroma.]

What you - do to - piss them off this time?

[outstandingbalance]

Nagging about anything in particular, or general nitpicking?

Captains do worry about things like that.

[recipio]

So you're saying now is a bad time to give you a box of molotovs.

[theroadwarrior]

uh huh.
decide to grow a sense of humor for the occasion?

text;;

[recipio]

It happens sometimes.
Your captain nags you? I didn't think she was the type.

[ Then again, he doesn't know Peggy very well. ]

text;;

[theroadwarrior]

she complains the moment tea's gone

who complains about tea, there's plenty of other things to drink

[Max is a fudgin' wastelander who'd drink muddy water, he doesn't understand preferences.]

text;;

[recipio]

Some people are really picky.

[ He used to be picky about certain things, but it didn't take long to just take what you're given and deal with it. ]
