ITEM DROP

A weak dawn breaks, the distant star beginning the slow rise that will take it across Cybertron's 32 hour day, offset by the brilliant lamp in Prima's sector.

Even with the minimal light that it exudes, however, it's enough to know that something is different.

Something has happened.

Something smells fresh, and new, and an awful lot like....lumber?



Yes, it's definitely lumber, and those with finer sensors might also detect a hint of freshly pressed metal sheeting next to it. In fact, there seem to be veritable piles of both, gleaming in the morning 'sun.' You can find steel girders, wooden planks, trusses, tools, and what looks like a good half of a bright orange Home Depot with a few, unglyphed employees still wandering around in a daze. There's almost anything you'd need to build any sort of establishment--doors, windows, roof shingles, concrete and duracrete powder in giant, Cybertronian-sized bags...

There's everything, of course, except for paint. Strangely (or not so strangely), that all ended up with Swindle.

Still, this is good luck! There might be a few plants in the home and garden department for the human types, and there's an entire steelyard for the robot types. That doesn't explain the human-sized hamster balls or the entire gingerbread cottage (complete with a very confused old woman), but surely there is something in here you could use? That very unassuming Sailor Moon wand, for instance...nothing could go wrong with that, now could it?

Of course not!

So go forth, dig for treasure, and build to your heart's content...


((So here are the item drop notes!

--Feel free to tag in below with action-spam of your character discovering the new items and trying to take them from each other/sharing them around!
--Your character may find and pick up anything that you'd expect to find in a standard hardware store (of the human OR Cybertronian variety).
--IF your character is claiming the entirety of any one item (EX: I HAVE ALL THE WRENCHES GUYS HAHAHAH) or claiming one of the specialty items (such as the Sailor Moon transformation wand) you MUST post below and say so in the post header. This time around, it is first-come, first snag. Next time, we'll change the process up to give everyone a chance!
--Yes, the Sailor Moon Wand DOES at least put you in the dress, regardless of size or species. That seems to be all it is capable of, though, so no moon prism power for you.
--All of the unglyphed arrivals will spend the first few days acting like normal. The Home Depot employees will either show you around or claim they aren't getting paid enough and leave. The old woman might yell at you to get off her 'lawn,' or, if you're a child, she'll invite you in for tea and cookies and try to bake you in her oven. Strangely, however, after a few days they all simply vanish. Observant folks might notice them heading straight for the badlands. Feel free to capture any that you wish before this though!))
vandalization: (Rig - My little friend)

Pretty much everywhere, it's gonna be Vandal.

[This is everything she could have ever wanted and more. Vandal is just all over the place here, having already tracked down one of those flat, rolling carts, she's loading it up with various materials and whatever tools she finds.

This is engineer heaven.

[personal profile] percept 2012-08-10 03:54 am (UTC)(link)
[ Perceptor is tagging along with Vandal, gathering up the supplies that are too big for Vandal to deal with. He's mostly quiet, focusing on the task at hand, until he finds...

Something perfect.

It's neon pink. Fluffy. Zebra print.

It might also be a rug. ]


What about this?

[ He holds it up. ]
vandalization: (Rig - The beginning)

[personal profile] vandalization 2012-08-10 03:59 am (UTC)(link)
[She gives it an appraising look.]

Tacky. Awful. Completely ugly...

[Sage nod.]

Put it on the cart.
percept: (pic#4119369)

[personal profile] percept 2012-08-10 04:08 am (UTC)(link)
[ Perceptor carefully rolls up the carpet and sets it in the cart. ]

Is there anything else you need?
vandalization: (PB - Yeah whatever)

[personal profile] vandalization 2012-08-10 04:11 am (UTC)(link)
[The cart is so heavy now she's just using the Kinesis module to move it.]

Plumbing. New electrical fixtures. Maybe a little garden. Oh yeah- definitely a garden.
percept: (pic#4141585)

[personal profile] percept 2012-08-10 04:14 am (UTC)(link)
Plant life?

[ Perceptor wanders off for a few minutes, perusing various piles, before he finds something that seems suitable.

He returns with a small bonsai tree in an ornate pot. ]


Will this suffice?
vandalization: (PB - Hey pretty)

[personal profile] vandalization 2012-08-10 04:19 am (UTC)(link)
[Wow... she didn't know they made trees so small. She's not really seen a great deal of them in her life.]

Not what I had in mind but... cute. I'll take it.
percept: (pic#4129537)

[personal profile] percept 2012-08-10 04:26 am (UTC)(link)
I. Selected it due to the aesthetic nature of the container and the relative size of the plant itself.

[ Perceptor sounds a little unsure, like he's not sure if it's okay that he picked something out because it looked cute nice. ]
vandalization: (PB - Okay...)

[personal profile] vandalization 2012-08-10 04:28 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah... it does look pretty cool. I'll have to keep it inside, I think.

sword_redemption: (arms folded)

because I clearly don't have enough tags with you yet.

[personal profile] sword_redemption 2012-08-10 04:01 am (UTC)(link)
[Drift is only here thinking about the mobile home. He's flipping through the aluminum siding, frowning, mumbling to himself.]

This is terrible armor.
vandalization: (PB - Flirt awkwardly)

C8 NEVER

[personal profile] vandalization 2012-08-10 04:07 am (UTC)(link)
[Vandal laughs, pulling up another piece of wood.]

It's not for armor. I'm not building a fortress, Drift.
sword_redemption: (MTMTE shoulder)

I am so bad. :(

[personal profile] sword_redemption 2012-08-10 04:09 am (UTC)(link)
...says you.

[Oh yes you are, Vandal. You are building an impenetrable superfortress. Or else.]
vandalization: (PB - Yeah whatever)

No shhhh only delicious CR now

[personal profile] vandalization 2012-08-10 04:14 am (UTC)(link)
Says me? Are you gonna build me a castle, Knight of Dorkingham?
sword_redemption: (:/)

ahahwhoops almost tagged you with Whirl

[personal profile] sword_redemption 2012-08-10 04:21 am (UTC)(link)
I'm going to make sure you're safe.

[Come on. You know he's bad with this tough guy talk. ]

This? [He rattles the thin siding.] Won't protect you from anything.
vandalization: (PB - gay robots)

Suddenly noble Whirl

[personal profile] vandalization 2012-08-10 04:26 am (UTC)(link)
I have you around, don't I? Besides, if someone wants to step on my house I'm fucked no matter what it's made out of.
sword_redemption: (huh?)

SG Whirl

[personal profile] sword_redemption 2012-08-10 04:52 am (UTC)(link)
Not good enough.

[He frowns. He'd never thought of the stepping-on angle.]

Right. We need something for the roof, then. [A 'do not step on this' device.]
vandalization: (PB - Hmm)

Hahah oh my god

[personal profile] vandalization 2012-08-10 04:55 am (UTC)(link)
Well, okay mister noble protector. What sort of thing would you suggest? You want I should have five layers of steel between me and the outside world?

[A pause.]

... Actually that would be cool. But too time consuming.

[Albert's just looking for all the plants because HE NEEDS LIVING THINGS. It's so lifeless here it's freaky.

Albert/004 pauses when he sees Vandal pass by.]


Looks like everyone's in on some big project.
vandalization: (Rig - Ripper)

[personal profile] vandalization 2012-08-12 07:36 am (UTC)(link)
[She pauses, only realizing she's was being spoken to after a moment. Her suit gives her complete anonymity. It covers her body completely with padding and armor, an her voice sounds deep and distorted.]

Oh hey. It's you. Four, right?
tearsofsteel: (Weltschmertz)

[personal profile] tearsofsteel 2012-08-12 07:40 am (UTC)(link)
[Oh it must have been that person he spoke to on the network.]

Zero zero four, since there's another four apparently.

[Something bewildering to him.]

People seemed to have adapted to this place pretty well.
vandalization: (Rig - WHAT IS THIS MADNESS?)

[personal profile] vandalization 2012-08-12 07:42 am (UTC)(link)
Man. Who would have thought?

[Shrug.]

Mmm. To be perfectly honest I would really like to have a nice freakout, but that won't really help me so...

[Another shrug.]
tearsofsteel: (Casual sweatering it up in here)

[personal profile] tearsofsteel 2012-08-12 07:44 am (UTC)(link)
[He glances around furtively. Must be a force of habit.]

I just want to feel useful. Used to being busy, I guess.

[personal profile] tearsofsteel 2012-08-13 05:46 pm (UTC)(link)

vandalization: (Rig - WHAT IS THIS MADNESS?)

Yeah... this place is fucking barren.
