CM nodded.  &I'll take a look right now.&

With that he recast Detect Magic and turned his gaze towards the piece of paper.

And then the mage drew his two handed sword.  "Shit! We're screwed!"

Carthrat

"Does this guy even need us, CM?" Carthrat asks, bluntly.
[19:14] <Annerose> Aww, mouth not outpacing brain after all?
[19:14] <Candide> My brain caught up

CyMage

"Everyone needs cannonfodder from time to time." Cy smirked at Rat.

And then the mage drew his two handed sword.  "Shit! We're screwed!"

Carthrat

"Heh. I guess. Ever commanded an army, CM? They're all just numbers until you meet the soldiers. Then, when you leave, they're just numbers again."

Carthrat stretched. "Guess I'm just kinda sick of being a number, eh? I dunno anymore. Maybe I should retire and sell of my arms collection."

He chuckled.

"Ever thought of just settlin' down, CM?"

CyMage

"If you mean retire and settle down in one spot, then not yet.  Starting the company could be considered settling down for me." Cy reminisced for a moment.  "I've always been a drifter.  Never had a place at all that I could return to."

And then the mage drew his two handed sword.  "Shit! We're screwed!"

Carthrat

"The company? I can't recall the last time you even talked to someone from the company."

Carthrat yawned. "Dammit.. Ukyo's gonna skin me alive."

A half hour passes in a mist of idle chatter and memories.  Richter is nowhere to be found during this, likely staying in the cockpit.

Your conversation is interrupted by a rumble and rocking of the craft, as if some force shook it. A moment later it happens again.

Cy - The dweomers are getting think enough in here to choke you, increasing as the shaking starts.

<Afina> Forever.

<Yuthirin> Afina, giant parasitic rainbow space whale.
<IronDragoon> I mean, why not?

Carthrat

"Turbulence?" Carthrat grabs his scanner and does a scan..

Anastasia

Carthrat - You get a solid block reading of 'Anomaly detected' over the plane. The relative energy level is at an obscenely high level and is quickly rising.

Looking up from the scanner, you notice symbols are materilizing on the walls.

<IronDragoon> I mean, why not?

Carthrat

Carthrat starts making his way towards the cockpit, with the intent of asking, "What's going on?"

CyMage

CM didn't even bother detecting for magic.  At best he would have been blinded for only a short time.  He did stand up and took a look at a couple of the closer symbols, trying to determine what they were.

And then the mage drew his two handed sword.  "Shit! We're screwed!"

Anastasia

CyMage -

The few runes you quickly take in are from the Rune Set of Space/Time and Alteration.  In other words, someone or something is about to fuck around with stuff that shouldn't be fucked around with.

Especially if you're in range of it.

Anastasia

Carthrat - Despite a few more rumbles, you make it to the door leading to the cockpit.  It's locked...

CyMage

Moving towards the cockpit, Cy looked at a few more of the symbols trying to determine what they all did together.

Carthrat

Carthrat curses. "Oi, CM!  Now might be a good time to requisition some parachutes. If only."

Fiddling with a scanner, he sets it to ignore anomalies and figure out the structural integrity of the aircraft, i.e. how long it's likely to stay in the air given what's acting on it right now.

He also looks through any windows handy to see if he can see anything..
