daycycle 122

[Jan 15 - Jan 21]

[OOC Plotting for this Dacycle can be found here.]

Early, Early Morning [0200 - 0400]
At approximately 0200, several explosive devices planted in Technical Services by PURGE will detonate, damaging several memobanks. In a rush to prepare for the morning upload several Technicians will mistakenly put the wrong memories in the wrong banks. They will catch their mistake before the final upload, but as a result several memories will now be shared across different alpha citizens' consciousnesses. These memories will be experienced as dreams and characters will retain knowledge of them when they wake.

Memory Swap Pairs

Adam Parrish - Derek Hale
Zatanna Zatara - Oliver Queen
Steve Rogers - Ronan Lynch
Katniss Everdeen - Matt Murdock
Morgana LeFey - Tony Stark
Clint Barton - Allison Argent
Isabelle Lightwood - Lydia Martin
Buffy Summers - Barry Allen
Emma Swan - Parker
Cisco Ramon - Gracie Cannell
Natasha Romanoff - Jack Harkness
Primrose Everdeen - Alcide Herveaux

Room 1101 will be woken up at 1200 when a squadron of Internal Security Gray Ops come to arrest Bucky Barnes for treason. He will be led away at gun point and his roommates, Ronan Lynch, Adam Parrish and Oliver Queen will be immediately taken into IntSec for questioning. They will be questioned about the activities of their former roommate for several hours before being sedated and returned to their room before 0500. Bucky's roommates will not remember his arrest or their questioning when they wake, though they may feel the lingering active effects of the sedative for several hours into their day.

The memory of Bucky Barnes having ever been present in Alpha will be erased with varying degrees of success from all those he came into contact with.

Early Morning [0800 - 0900] — All Troubleshooters Report for Duty

No Specials will be selected for a mission today.

Morning & Afternoon [0900 - 1600] — Service Firm Positions
All Troubleshooters not assigned a mission should report to their Service Firm for their daily duties.

At 0900 it will be discovered that the shooter from Steve Roger's assassination attempt has, ironically, been assassinated along with her guards in Armed Forces the night before. The letters mod will be left written in the shooter's blood along her cell wall.

Evening [1600 - 2200] — Citizen Improvement
All Alpha citizens are encouraged to better themselves through Alpha’s wide variety of educational, entertainment and cultural opportunities offered each evening. Attending these sanctioned events are not mandatory, but is highly encouraged by The Computer. Citizens choosing not to take advantage of these opportunities, have a growing number of other options available to them in how to spend their hard earned credits and free time.

Tonight’s event will be at 1900 in the Commissary and will be overseen by Clint Barton. Izzy Lightwood from Medical Services has been assigned to assist him in giving a demonstration on basic first aid and wound care.

Alpha Curfew Restrictions
All Alpha citizens should be in their quarters within the Wagon Wheel by 2200, unless they’ve been given permission from a GREEN or higher clearance level citizen. Sleeping Aid gas is dispelled each night in the Wagon Wheel at 2200 to assist citizens in getting a productive sleeping period.

Confession Booths
There are hundreds of confession booths available around Alpha Complex if a citizen would like to communicate directly with the computer. Please use these confession booths to report mission statuses, report treason or terrorist acts, unregistered mutants, confess your trespasses against Alpha Complex, request propaganda or speak with Your Friend, The Computer, at any time.

The only thing worse than having a nightmare is having a nightmare that isn't your own.

The moment Natasha opened her eyes she knew that whatever she saw, it wasn't a dream. The way that it felt was too raw, too real, and she knows what it's like inside of her own head well enough to be able to differentiate between what's her own and what isn't. Wanda was nice enough to help her with that against her will.

She had visions, some of Jack, and some of Barry, who she now almost feels bad for teasing. She noted his bravery the day that he stayed back to fight with her and she got shot for him, but she chalked it up to him being a strong guy with a babyface. Turns out that it goes a little deeper than that, and although his particular ability is something that's still fairly new to her it's still something that she can understand; he reminds of of Pietro, in so many ways.

Seeing him like that, hate and tears; it makes her take him a little more seriously. Before he was just a reckless idiot with a good heart, but now she knows; that certainly wasn't his first battle. Her shoulder wound wasn't the worst thing he's ever seen, either.

She's planning on avoiding him throughout the day until there's whispers crawling through Free Enterprise that some moron is asking too many questions, and once someone identifies him as Barry Allen, Natasha has no choice but to go save him once again. It isn't hard to find him, all she has to do is track the two goons that were sent to question him in the first place, and by the time she spots the three of them she can see that the two FE 'associates' are quickly closing in. Before they manage to grab him and drag him into the next alley, however, Natasha catches up until she's striding behind them and she snaps her fingers once to get their attention.

"Leave. I've got this." They exchange glances with one another and although Nat has done a well enough job so far playing the defenseless small female card, she really doesn't have the patience for it today. She snaps coldly. "Did I stutter? Move out of my way." They don't move as much as they just stop walking, letting her walk past them to catch up to Barry herself before she grabs the man's wrist and drags him into the alleyway; a known blindspot to the cameras. She pushes him up against a wall with surprising strength, glancing around once to make sure they're alone before she finally lets go of him and meets his eyes.

God, he even looks different, after what she saw.

"Didn't anybody tell you not to ask questions that you don't want the answers to? We really have to stop meeting like this, if I get shot for you again I will not be a happy camper." Just because she knows certainly doesn't mean he's going to get special treatment. After a moment, the annoyance in her eyes fades away and she glances over him once. "You alright?"

Fine. A touch of special treatment, but only this once.

He thinks the coast is clear, but no sooner than he sets foot outside of the shop he ducked into, someone's grabbed his wrist and pulled him into an alleyway. He blinks, suddenly finding himself being pushed into an alley wall by none other than Natasha Romanoff. For a split second his brain shuts down at the ridiculous thought that she's going to kiss him and all he can do is stare at her as she lays into him.

Then, her words catch up with the movement of her lips and he drags his eyes up to meet hers, just in time to see her look him over as if she's checking him for some kind of damage. He swallows, trying to force his brain into working again.

"Uh, no. I mean, no one told me that." It's not a great start. He tries to pull himself together, attempting to shrug off her hold. "I'm trying to find out where the bomber got the watch."

There, that was a little more coherent. He glances towards the opening of the alley. "Free Enterprise is following me." Though, he is pretty sure she knows that already. The memories from last night come to mind and he has to look away from her. It's too raw. Too real. And he shouldn't know about it, but he does.

"I'm fine. Are you?"

It isn't until Natasha is looking back at him that she realizes his eyes aren't on hers, and when he finally looks up from her mouth she's giving him a disapproving glare that conveys her thoughts; she knows where he was looking and can he really be thinking about something that silly at a time like this? It's as far as she goes, though, choosing his safety over teasing him. For now. "Why?" She snaps the question with abrasive impatience, as if his searching for the watch source is somehow putting a kink in her day, because it is. "What are you, Allen, a detective? I hope not, because you suck at it. Yeah, no shit," she adds the last part when he says that he thinks he's being followed, and she looks at the mouth of the alleyway like the mentioning of it reminded her.

"Come on, move." She doesn't wait and instead manhandles him further, grabbing his shoulder and pulling him off of the wall to try and tug him to walk down the rest of the alley with her. It's probably a comical sight to any outside witness, a five foot six inch redhead forcefully moving a man who's at least half a foot taller than her, but she does it with ease. Not only has Barry put himself at risk with Free Enterprise, but now her cover is at risk, and she's worked much too hard to involve herself in this world just for some babyfaced superhero to swoop in and mess it all up. That's happened more than enough in her life, thank you very much.

"We need to get ourselves out on a public street, I can shake them there." She's speaking as if they're still being followed despite the fact that the men fell back at her order, but Natasha isn't naive. She knows well enough to know that Free Enterprise has eyes everywhere, sometimes even where the Computer doesn't. A part of her wants to tell him what she saw, because he deserves to know, but another part of her is almost fearful to do so. There aren't many things that can make Natasha Romanoff hesitate but privacy is one of them; privacy is sacred. What's more private than one's own memory and past? "What do you think you'll be able to accomplish, finding out where that watch came from?" She doesn't sound condescending anymore, her tone taking a turn for investigative curiosity. Barry isn't a stupid guy - she's getting the feeling that it's quite the contrary to that, actually - and she wants to know just how successful he's been.
