So, Faction Takedowns, Let's Talk About Em!

Hello, fritterlings. Here is the latest word on the faction takedowns.

On IG September 4th (technically now IRL, but we're going to backdate it a bit because inciting events are still happening and backdating is how we do, here), three things are going to happen.

Thing the first: Andrew, James & Co. are going to badger the Rift into letting them go home.
Thing the second: the Rift is going to throw an epic tantrum in response because hdu.
Thing the third: said tantrum will allow interested and motivated parties to go ahead and fork up ROMAC's ship, ultimately resulting in the faction's fall. SIC SEMPER TYRANNIS that joke goes out to Lu I'm here all week tip your waitress.

Sometime in the next week(ish), two open posts will go up. One will be for general Rift shenanigans (this can take whatever form players choose; pretty much anything goes), and one will be for forking up ROMAC. Players are free to throw their characters into whichever scenario they feel like getting involved in. It'll be a hot mess.

Several days after the dust settles in the Citigroup tower (aka a couple weeks down the line in real time), it'll be the Rebels' turn for some ruction. Daine is largely going to be leading the charge on this one, but again, all will be welcome to get involved to whatever degree they so choose (though it's going to be presumed that anyone living in the base will be relocated, because the base is not gonna be livable by the time Daine's done with it). An open post will go up, much like with the Rift shenanigans/ROMAC takedown business.

The goal is to say that by IG September 10th/11th, everything will have calmed down and anyone rendered homeless by the ruction will have been resettled elsewhere. For the sake of convenience, the buildings that currently serve as the Rebel and ROMAC apartments will continue to function as rifty housing. They'll just lose their faction-specific affiliations.

Questions? Concerns? Comments? I am hopped up on DayQuil and ready to field them ineptly.

Iman will be helping to instigate the ROMAC takedown - probably what'll happen is once she and others get wind that there is some kind of Rift fuckery going down, the idea to go in and finish the mess she and Daine started will come to a few people and she'll probably send out some texts. I don't have any really specific plans for her other than that - probably she'll stick with Rush, and there are a few other possibilities that have been discussed. I'm pretty much down for whatever.

Johnny will likely not be involved except for general worrying about Gabe. He miiiight try to do something stupid, but that'll only be if I and others feel like we have time to mess around with that.

Aziraphale will be there to help get people out and keep them safe, and possibly mess some things up himself, what a rebel, but I don't know that I'll be threading anything extensive with him. Basically he can just be available if people need him.

Bee is gonna lie lowww. She'll want to know her friends are safe but that's about it.

Will Jay even know anything is happening??? DOES HE EVER??? Jay is useless, he will not help you, he'll get forcibly involved later when Tim gets captured by the Rebels, so in the meantime we can just assume he's asleep or staring numbly at public access television.

What about worrying about Seth, because lemme tell ya he really needs it. XD But I suppose that's what he'll be doing up TO the takedowns. Awkward grief counselling and all that. (And I suppose worrying about Gabe will be plenty distraction to not be around to stop Seth from doing something super stupid.)

Yes, that will happen :p During the takedown itself he will be more worried about Gabe cause of that whole love thing, which also might help Seth do something stupid, not having someone on his shoulder

"the whole love thing" so poetic and romantic

But yes having only someone telling him "come wreck shit" and no one telling him "uM BAD IDEA??" will help. Although tbh he'd probably do it anyway even if Johnny or anyone else tried to talk him out of it.
