event: break-in

[mayfield_mods]

[Anyone who drops by the dairy between the hours of three PM and five PM on Tuesday will find that the door's been unlocked. Even though the door's shut, there's a strange humming sound coming from inside the building.

Careful if you want to try to peek inside, though. You may not like what you find.]

[Chell peers in the best she can, but upon seeing nothing but darkness, she takes a breath and opens the door wider, this time making an opening big enough for her to walk in.

Once she enters the pitch-dark building, she glances around for any kind of light to help her find her way.]

[mayfield_mods]

[There's no light source to be found - she'll need to either provide her own or make her way deeper in the dark.]

[jumpsuited_rat]

[Chell's stubborn and she's gotten this far. Who knows, maybe this will lead to finding a way out of this strange town?

She starts carefully walking forward, putting her hands out and occasionally sweeping the to the sides, looking for anything in her way or something she could hold onto to help lead her through the building, like pipes or a shelf.

Chell's getting to the bottom of this one way or another, she's glad that if sommething goes terribly wrong that death isn't permanent here, but she'd rather it not come to that.]

[mayfield_mods]

[Deeper into the dark, there's a faint glow, and humming resonate from the corner.]

[jumpsuited_rat]

[Now that she's got a clear goal, Chell makes her way towards the glow, being cautious as she heads that direction.]

[mayfield_mods]

[She'll come across an enormous steel vat attached to an electric generator. On it is a sign written DO NOT TOUCH.]

[jumpsuited_rat]

[Chell smirks slightly when she sees the sign, in her experience, things that you're "not supposed to do" often got the results she needed. This situation is close enough to the one back in Aperture, so she's going to take what she feels is a necessary risk.

First, she's going to walk around the vat and generator and see if there's anything that sticks out about either one. More signs, buttons, levers, indications of how it's being used are all sorts of things Chell's looking for. Best to know as much as you can about something before experimenting with it.]

[mayfield_mods]

[There's nothing much else to see other than a few discarded liquor bottles on the ground.]

[jumpsuited_rat]

[Chell takes extra care to not step on the bottles and decides to give the generator a closer look.

She's inspecting it for some way to turn it off and how it connects to the vat.]
