Oh the weather inside is frightful but some fires would be delightful~

Polar Vortex!

In the middle of the night on day 299, something has gone amiss. The temperature ship wide begins to slowly drop, filling the rooms with a biting low cold. It's as though winter has come to the Engime. Over the day, the walls and floors will slowly cover with ice and in the various lounges, it's begun to snow, coating tabletops and seats alike with a soft white blanket.

There's been a malfunction in the holodecks having to do with the recent fiddlings of Seth and a small group of people and now, it's a mere 15 °F. (That's -10 ºC) Thankfully, there's no wind chill to take into account. The Cargo Bay is the only place that seems to escape this cold but only the worst of it. It's more livable temperature comes out to only just above freezing.

The cold will last until late in day 301 when the ship slowly starts warming back up to it's amicable warmer temperatures.

So what shall you do? Cuddle with a buddy? Huddle under your blankets? Well now, that's up to you, isn't it.

Please note that this is a player plot and has nothing to do with the metaplot.

Lydia and Mary can grump together if you want. Mary's from New Mexico, so she gets it. (Though she did grow up in New Jersey, at some points homeless/without heat, so she might not be fully sympathetic.)

And can you guess the first person Joan is going to think did this?

They could give that a go - I might have a log for her. Lydia's not hugely fond of Mary, and she may just say so if things get too snippy. xD But it could be amusing!

Joan, don't you dare even blame him. He will hex you. 8(

There aren't all that many people that are fond of Mary. It's cool.

And she totally will! At least initially.

Uwahaha~ She's very hard to deal with |D

He will be over here, grumbling and being generally annoyed. And he may also make a very irate network post stating that he had nothing to do with it. x3
