Despite all my rage - [Open]

[itsjustthemads]

Characters: Anyone who wants to participate
Content: Jailbreeeak!
Location: Around the Satellite
Time of Day: All day
Warnings: Angry characters of all sorts!

Pearl: Heeeeya Frank, I called in a temp wildlife agency to get ya set up on that ol' Satellite. They should have all the stuff you need to organize up there now.

Frank: Gosh, thanks, Pearl! You sure have been helpful!

Pearl: Ohh, I know! And I'll be done down here in a jiffy!

[Wait...how did this happen? Characters will discover at the start of their day that the entrances to all of their bedrooms have been outfitted with cages! If they try to walk into their rooms, they’ll get trapped. What’s more, the decks are also peppered with cages with tasty bait inside. Step inside to get it, and you'll get stuck!]

[This log is party-style...animals can be smart enough to avoid the traps and try to get rid of them, or potentially get caught! If they do get caught, then characters that are currently human can go around freeing them...or anything else they want to!]

Well, that was certainly one way to make sure Wilykit was awake in the morning. Not that nearly getting a cage door slammed in her face when she tried to go back to her room after getting breakfast was what she'd call a pleasant wakeup call, but it was definitely something.

"That was faster than I expected," Kit grumbled, scowling at the bars blocking her room. She shook her head to chase off unpleasant memories of Safari Joe and the Robber Baron's trap-filled tower and started skulking back toward the kitchen. As long as this Thundercat was loose, Wilykit wasn't going to sit back and let Frank and that lady in green get away with thing.

The kitchen and the surrounding area had been booby-trapped too, but not for long. By the time Wilykit arrived, Pinkie had piled all the cages on top of one of the tables and was going through them one-by-one, pulling out the bait. "Hey, Wilykit!" she chimed. "You want a...cucumber?" She frowned down at the vegetable and turned to the table next to her. "I think there was a can of tuna somewhere in here..."

[cleverkit]

"Hi, Pinkie Pie," Wilykit greeted back as she hopped up on the edge of the table to sniff disdainfully at the pile of cages. "They're really going all out with this whole 'penning us up' plan, aren't they?" she asked, resisting the urge to bat at one of them.

The mention of tuna brightened her spirits quickly enough. "Yes, please!" she quickly responded, momentarily distracted from the problem at hand.

[sailorlaughter]

"Yeah. I asked Cammy to ask some of his brothers to find anyone who gets caught. I'm TOTALLY good enough with my fingers now to open these lickety-split! See?" She extracted a small plate of deli meat from the latest cage and set it down before turning to dig through the pile of bait. Cammy, from his place crouched on a nearby table, waved at the pair.

"I just don't know WHY they're doing it!" she exclaimed, pulling out the tuna can and opening it, before setting it down in front of Wilykit. "Frank's always been super-nice to ME, and I'm usually a pony!"

[cleverkit]

"Good, at least nobody will have to stay trapped for too long," Wilykit said. "Frank really didn't think this through too well, did he?"

Kit gave a gleeful little "yay!" once Pinkie Pie got the tuna open and began to dig in as she thought about what she had to say. "I think it's mostly that lady's fault this is happening, or at least she's the one who really wants it to happen. She's Dr. Forrester's mom, right?" she suggested. "I guess being bad at being evil runs in the family, or something."

[sailorlaughter]

"Pearl? Yeah, she's Dr. Forrester's mom." Pinkie frowned down at the cage in her hands. "Frank STILL shouldn'tve listened to her, though! We're friends!" Of course, they weren't super-close friends, especially since he was on Earth and she was in space, but they talked. She was definitely better friends with him than with Dr. Forrester, anyway.

"And cages are...prrrrrretty evil. Even if we can get everyone out, it's still not very nice."
