continue to fly in the face of reason

WHO: Aeon and whoever joins her
WHERE: Temba & Not-Temba
WHAT: Exploring - Security Station, Hotel, Laboratories
WHEN: 2nd half of July
WARNINGS: It's Aeon. She'll probably be indecent or get herself hurt at least once - especially if she manages to get into the lab.


Temba - Pre-Exploration
The little section of Temba Aeon has claimed for herself used to be an Agrii salon. There are numerous clientele service chairs, long and thin, with complicated arm and leg rests. She's moved them all over to one side in a sort of lounge space, and filled that with plants and pillows. The mirrors have been repurposed and set along the floor, ceiling, and sides of the entrance - both for visibility and as a stylistic choice.

Since Echo had announced that he was staying in Temba for a little while before taking the train in, Aeon had decided to wait and go with him, so they could experience it all together. To pass the time, she gets a few cans of black and white paint from Alien Target and starts to paint the walls. She has the doors propped open to vent the paint fumes, but also as an open invitation. She's also going to attempt a little portrait of Ga Re near the door, in case the Agri ever comes to visit - and also because she looks like she'd be fun to draw.

Not-Temba - The Hotel
Anyone approaching the hotel might notice a small speck crawling up over the higher floors. Yep. It's Aeon. She's used the grapple attachment for her gun to scale past the ruined staircases, and is determined to get a look at the top. Anyone feel like joining her? Or maybe trying to talk her out of another Bad Idea?

Not-Temba - Security Station
Aeon doesn't hesitate before creeping into the squat, stocky building. Security means secrets, and secrets are fun. She wanders the halls, running a hand over the seamless stone, searching for any cracks, indents ... anything that could lead to a hidden panel or access to power sources or wiring. When she reaches the carved-in desks, she'll crawl underneath, checking there just as thoroughly: though she has to turn herself into a leather-clad pretzel to do it.

Not-Temba - Laboratories
Another puzzle... she's determined to get in, but lacks the resources to get through the stone, so she's parked herself outside on a bench to study her impenetrable adversary. Those 'do not enter' signs are practically an invitation, but she doesn't have any of her usual explosives.

"Hm."

"All I know is that its dangerous enough to warrant this barrier and a warning. Other than that, I can't make any sort of assumptions, including on how to stop or restrain it."

He glanced at Aeon, his face a serious frown.

"Once we let the genie out of the bottle, there's no guaranteeing we can get it back in." That was a bit of Ben speaking there, as such a saying wasn't a thing in Obi-Wan's galaxy.

She does sound incredibly childish, but he looks more amused then annoyed.

"So do I. But I suspect its not going anywhere any time soon. Which means we can take the time to find a way in without potentially causing a catastrophic disaster."
hadthehighground: (of course)

It's a relief that she agrees, though he can feel the tumult of emotions radiating from Aeon. But that was all right. What mattered is that she saw the reason in leaving it be for the moment.

"Gather as much information as we can and present it to the others. The more minds we have thinking about the problem, the better the solution we can come up with. There may be others with abilities that can makes this easier and safer."

"It wouldn't hurt to look," Obi-Wan agrees. "And I can get an idea of how thick it is with the Force, though I can't say it will be precise."

It would be a start at least. The Jedi knowing there would be only a limited amount of information they could get. But it was a goal, and one that would keep Aeon from breaking into the building right away. If they were going to do this they needed a solid plan and support from others.
