Adventures, Capers and Escapes - Danger Shop, Thursday, Period 3

Oh look, the Danger Shop was set up to look and feel like they were on a moving train circa 1930s in an empty passenger car. The Doctor was there to greet them. "We're on a train! You might remember that the class is called Adventures, Capers and Escapes. This is the capers part. Your objective is simple. Take over the train. There's a catch. There's always a catch. There's a coal carriage between the forward-most passenger car and the engine and its driver. The door to the coal carriage is irreversibly locked." He pocketed his sonic screwdriver. "Wonder who did that. Additionally, the next three cars ahead of us are full of passengers, including about fifteen police officers who will do everything they can to stop you. Baggage car is behind us. Caboose after that. I love the caboose. I don't love the caboose. I love saying caboose. That's close enough. Go on." He checked his watch. "You have fifty five minutes to plan the heist of the year between yourselves and execute it. Oh, and no killing anyone. Doctor's orders."

Like you're about to commandeer a train.

Cara still wasn't entirely sure what a train was, but she was sure this couldn't be that hard.

Even if she wasn't allowed to kill anyone.

"We clearly need to work together," Ariel mused out loud to anyone who might be listening. "Split up; have some people take over the train while the others distract all those pesky police officers..."

Alex mulled over something that could work as a distraction. "I don't know about a distraction, but I could try teleporting someone to the coal carriage?"

She could also try a transfiguration spell, but she wasn't sure how long it would last. Then again, a golden retriever on a train could prove to be a good enough distraction...

"Clearly," said Claudia, "someone needs to run across the roof of the train."

She was nominating someone way, way more coordinated than she was.

"How hard can that be?" Elphaba asked. "I imagine there must be wind, but if one keeps low and allows the wind to pass over you instead of against you, that should help keep you from falling off, shouldn't it?"

She was not exactly an expert of aerodynamics.

"Well, there's the whole thing where the surface you're standing on is moving over unknown tracks and is shaking around all over the place, too."

"...oh," Elphaba said. "I suppose that would make it difficult."

She hadn't ever ridden a train, you see.

Technically, neither had Claudia. But she'd seen a lot of heist movies.

"I think it's something that takes practice."

"I'll go," Roy said. "It's not that hard."

Claudia blinked at him. "You've done that before?"

Of course he had. This was Fandom.

"And just why are we trying to take over the train?" Hank asked. "That sounds like an awfully villainous thing to do."

"Maybe the train belongs to villains."

Talk to the Doctor or TAs

[identity profile] worsethanaunts.livejournal.com 2011-02-17 01:12 pm (UTC)(link)
Wait for the TAs, but the Doctor is here, being a busy-body by listening to what everyone has to say while planning.

Cara was there, glad the Doctor hadn't commented on her shoes for once.

Bobby was there, and he didn't actually worry about the Doctor commenting on his shoes.

I don't like trains now that I have to catch them three days a week for an hour fifteen and back.
