SQUALL: TURBULENCE

Jan 21st, 2022 – Jan 28th, 2022
Have you ever seen someone caught in a lie? Some people capitulate immediately, dishing out apologies with the truth. Some people get embarrassed, flush red, stumble over their words to correct themselves. Some people get defensive. Some people try to bargain.

Some people get angry.

Now might be one of those times.

On January 20th, the Navarch will announce that the Peregrine is navigating a minefield of asteroids. Nothing to worry about: The ship has shields for this exact purpose. Lights may flicker and powered doors may briefly refuse to open as the ship diverts power to the forward shield. Passengers may feel slight rumblings, a gentle vibration of the floors under their feet, or see a trembling in their water glass. They might even hear the sound of the asteroids meeting the shield, like a persistent drip in a metal sink. All very routine for space travel.

But one asteroid is going to get through. Just a small one, barely the size of a basketball. Just big enough to punch a little hole in the side of the ship. The ship's bots will hop to repairing it, also very routine, but it might take a bit to pinpoint the particular problem.

Starting on January 21st, passengers on the ship may feel anger when caught lying or when lied to. A lie may not be obvious — maybe it's subtle, maybe they don't know the other well enough to know it's a lie, maybe it's a lie of omission. Up to you! But they'll feel some form of anger, however that might manifest. Snippiness? Lectures? A fistfight? Outright violence?

Effects are rolling; if you'd like a character to be affected at one time but not another, that's fine! Adapt as you see fit. An event log will go up on Friday.

You can use this post for any OOC plotting! If you have any questions about the event, please ask here.
