This is all Amanda's fault :I

There is entirely too much trauma on this space station lately. Which means it's time for the

Broken Elevator Meme!

...Yeah.

• Your character is riding on an elevator when - oh no - it breaks down and stops! How unexpected.
• Oh look, someone else is in there with them. How about that.
• That elevator isn't going to move until your thread amasses at least ten comments. MAYBE MORE.
• Commence arguing/going stir-crazy/making out to relieve the tension/all of the above.
• Agree to never speak of this again (and just use the stairs in future).

To achieve the correct atmosphere for this meme, I highly recommend these tracks. HAVE FUN~ :B

[all the awkward fidgeting as the elevator slowly takes them to their destination. Sh-she was kind of being a jerk just now, wasn't she.]

...good.

[alaspooryork]

[If Sarah knew Tex very well, she'd know Delta was perfectly used to jerks. Really, York was about the only one who ever treated him nicely.]

We will arrive shortly.

Thank you for pressing the buttons, Sarah.

[Sarah glances uncertainly in Delta's direction. Is he trying to be patronizing, or...]

I wanted to get things moving again as much as you did.

[Not really, he's just insubstantial in areas without a ton of projectors.]

Unfortunately, many systems appear to be designed to limit non-tactile functionality. There is little I may do on my own.

[Sarah just kind of grunts in acknowledgement, and tactfully doesn't share her opinion that maybe that's a good thing.

Not preventing Delta specifically from being to do much by himself, necessarily. But keeping AI in general from jumping into the computer systems and screwing around with them?

Yeah, she doesn't have a problem with that.]

...anyway, you didn't have to thank me.

[alaspooryork]

[If there weren't tons of robo-bodies around for the jacking, that might actually be true. It was probably intended by the original residents to keep a modicum of control for themselves, but like everything it can be worked around.]

Acknowledged. However, York insists it is appropriate to express appreciation.

[hows-the-knee.livejournal.com]

[Just this. (http://l-userpic.livejournal.com/106854744/30424514)]

...yeah, I'm sure he does.

[York would.]

You don't have to thank me for helping save my own skin, okay.

[alaspooryork]

[And the elevator grinds to a halt, finally dinging on the appropriate floor.]

If you insist.

[hows-the-knee.livejournal.com]

[Delta stop being so accommodating, it's really making it hard to keep up the distrust and preconceived notions here.:|]

...okay then.

[She takes a step towards the door and then hesitates, glancing at Delta.]

...see you around.

[alaspooryork]

[And he's already fading into the network.]

Please take care.
