4th Wall Event
Who: Various
What: 4th Wall Event
When: M12 D3-D5 (on Mar 7 - 15)
Where: Around Blackway and Blackstaff
Notes & Warnings: Please attach any warnings necessary to thread subjects. This does count for game canon. All 4th wall threads go here, and information is available on OOC and news. The game's navigation is here.
Welcome, ladies, gentlemen, intersexed, androgynes, robots, energy beings, and life forms of all kinds. I am Jeffers, your servant, host, and resort AI.
Let me extend gratitude to you all on behalf of the entire community for agreeing to come and render service in the wake of our unfortunate incident with spontaneously frictionless surfaces. Your assistance in rebuilding is greatly valued.
Visitors, I encourage you to speak with the other Imports. Imports, I ask you to help our guests enjoy their stay.
Please consult with any terminal or one of my android drone avatars if you have any questions that cannot be answered by the residents. I most sincerely hope you find your time at Blackstaff a pleasant one.
And with Jeffers announcement to the population, the town was opened up to anyone willing to help. Some of the citizens who had tended towards suspicion towards imports for some time (an as-of-yet unidentified one took part in sabotage against the town) have changed their views and are now extremely welcoming, offering whatever they can to in return for the help they're getting from the visiting imports.
While the guests are here, they have free rein of the village, and even visiting the wilderness if they have a permit. First they must be instructed on how to defend themselves against the planet's hostile species. A guide is still recommended, but with the busy schedule one is not absolutely essential.

- For those of you who enjoy “fun” [Jeffers says as if he’s not sure that any of this really qualifies as fun in his book], Mr. Jellicles’ Emporium requires extensive repair. There are broken windows and bottles hither and thither, and do be careful of the broken glass; we wouldn’t want any further injuries. Broken arcade games must be fixed. Furniture repaired, or, if it is beyond hope, taken away. And small, colourful plastic balls are scattered asunder and must be gathered up to be relocated into a “fun cage,” but worse and far more deadly are the skiballs and bowling balls. I must insist no one drop one of those on one’s own or another’s foot
- The local restaurants require new food to be brought in. Because of the quarantine, food shortage is somewhat of a danger, therefore any food will do, but I for one would especially appreciate champagne and truffles. In addition, new dishes must be unpacked, furniture repaired, and cooking areas cleaned. I expect the cooking areas to be able to pass the most rigorous of health inspections once the cleaning is finished. Not that we have a ministry of health and safety here, but it is the principle of the thing.
- With the clinic having been overwhelmed by recent events, they are currently understaffed to handle the full scope of injuries. Assistance treating the wounded and the ill would be a very great help. Do note that only persons with appropriate physician or nursing qualifications will be able to assist patients with direct care. It would not be at all appropriate to have, for example, vehicle mechanics performing surgery. Unless perhaps the patient is a sentient robot car. Then the clinic will make an exception. Many other tasks are available for other volunteers who desire clinic duties, however. In particular, wounded patients may require assistance retrieving personal items, sending messages, or returning home. Furthermore, as always, the clinic would be grateful to receive donations of medicines from your homeworld
- The loss of friction created an extensive mess around town and I so dislike messes. I would like it very much if knocked over displays were righted, broken glass cleared, and disabled vehicles removed from the streets. Let’s have a nice, tidy village, shall we? Furthermore, some residents misplaced pets during the hullaballoo and would very much like them found and returned. (Not to mention the havoc stray beasts are having on the songbird population.) Shelves in various shops must be restocked with new, unbroken merchandise, and many storefronts and signs are in need of general repair.
And with Jeffers announcement to the population, the town was opened up to anyone willing to help. Some of the citizens who had tended towards suspicion towards imports for some time (an as-of-yet unidentified one took part in sabotage against the town) have changed their views and are now extremely welcoming, offering whatever they can to in return for the help they're getting from the visiting imports.

[Liv makes a face at that question. she considers briefly before answering, wondering what he might know of where she and the Doctor have been since she last saw Narvin] I wasn't with him when I left. And believe it or not, I didn't think the Daleks I was with would be very interested in coming here to help people.
no subject
Those vile creatures should be w-- [He was going to say "wiped from existence" in a casual, habitual expression of his violent dislike of them. But as the meaning catches up to his words, they stick in his throat. Because he tried that once, and it hadn't gone well.
He clears his throat, changes direction.]
So the Doctor is abandoning his humans across time and space again? One would think that after the Master ran off with Molly O'Sullivan, he'd learn better.
no subject
[and the Doctor didn't mean for her to get captured, although he does have a rather horrible track record in that department]
no subject
They're growing bolder and bolder by the day.
no subject
[in short, things have not been going well for Earth lately]
no subject
Or... [Another possibility crosses his mind.] ...are the two simply playing a cosmic game of tug-o-war with Earth in the middle?
no subject
[she finishes bandaging the girl and adjusts her position on the bed to be more comfortable] So just how long does that weapon of yours knock people out for, anyway?
no subject
[He brushes his fingers against his mouth.]
So, the Daleks, the Master, and the Doctor all converging on one time and place. I can already imagine the enormous mess we're going to have to clean up.
no subject
[Liv hasn't forgotten Ramossa, after all, where Time Lord interference was based around killing people rather than actually solving the problem. but despite her words and tone toward Narvin, even she has to admit that changing Earth's history pre-space travel should be causing enough changes to the universe to catch the Time Lords' attention. but if that's the case, she wonders where they are]
no subject
[It's possible that the High Council, being how it is, will decide to let Earth go hang, so long as the changes to history don't negatively impact them.]
This must be happening after my time, so I can't say. I probably shouldn't be hearing about even this much. [Not that he's going to stop listening. He can't be accused of breaking the laws of time by learning about the future when it just drops into his lap like this. He hasn't done any time travelling at all.]
no subject
More about the web of time? [she sighs. she's been down this road with the Doctor before, and while she's still not sure she completely understands how it works, she isn't going to push it. after all, it's not like she was intending to seek Narvin's help anyway] Fine. So what was happening where--when--you arrived from?
no subject
[And he, Narvin, is responsible.
Even though he hasn't stopped Miss Chenka from talking about the future.]I left Gallifrey on my mission to this world just a few weeks after the incident with the Eminence and the Master was concluded.
no subject
[maybe it was naive of her to assume that Narvin, like her, would be here for his own reasons rather than the Time Lords', but she still wasn't expecting that]
no subject
[In addition, there's also the personal matter of trying to find a way to restore his regenerations, but no one needs to know about that.]
no subject
[she isn't in the mood to argue with Narvin at the moment--and the girl is starting to stir, so she decides to give him some friendly advice instead] You know, you might not want to be here when she wakes up. I'm betting she'll be able to guess who it was who shot her.
no subject
I'll just...leave you to it, then.
[He backs out of the room.]
