[Buffy appears on the screen with her 'General' expression on. She's all business right now.]

Okay, so you've heard that the situation seems to be going down...or south or six feet under---let's stay away from that one. Anyway the Defense Force is working on doing what we can to keep everyone safe. We've got a plan for this! Really. Or you know...we've been working on one the last few days. Kitty is doing the 'business' side of things which leaves me to do the PR side of things.

Obviously, things on the scary and creepy scale is rising, but we don't need to panic. That's a movie, isn't it, Xander? Don't panic? Right, back to the plan. No panicking. Get to a centralized area like the Athletic Complex or some other large building. Bring a blanket, pillow and make a slumber party of it. The Defense Force is going to be doing patrols and checking in on everyone.

[ Locked to the Defense Force ]

Okay, so investigative team needs to be investigating. We need to be patrolling, making sure that people are okay and maybe suggesting they go to one of the more central buildings in the different sectors. As I mentioned, Kitty is all over the detail side of things and the Plan B things. Not that we're going to need a plan B. Plan A hasn't even panned all the way out yet. If you've got questions, you can talk to me or Kitty. Buffy in charge will definitely not be a trending thing. It's just a trying to fill in so Kitty can do important things.

[Buffy can be found in any of the 'safe' buildings or in the Defense Force headquarters at various times. She's doing exactly what is advertised on the tin, patrolling and trying to organize things so that Kitty can work on other things.]

	[Jack's on his way back to his apartment in Sector 4 with a coffee from Bean Crushers in each hand] What do you need me to do, Buffy? I'm thinking just round up anyone I can find here and get them to the cinema? That's the nearest safe zone, right? Or should I try and get across to Sector 3, as that's the zone I'm responsible for? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	I think you let them choose? Unless you want to be able to personally check on them, then stick them in your zone. I'm planning on gluing Dawn to my hip. [It's a joke, but only just.] Thanks for helping out. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[He gives her a rueful smile. He gets that instinct to protect those she cares about oh, so very well. He nods, briskly.] Noted. In that case, I think I'm going to see if I can find my friends here, and bring them with me to Sector 3. One of them's in my team there anyway. Take care of yourself, okay? And yell if you need me.

	[Fresh meat here! And his horn is glowing purple] Shining Armor here! I'm keeping an eye on the Athletic Complex. I've also got one of my shields on the crack up there. So don't be worried about the purple bubble up there. [Be worried if it disappears.] (Reply to this) (Thread)

	[Wow...that's...there are some things Buffy will never get used to here.] Okay. Great. I mean...really that's a lot more than I'd hoped for. How well will it hold if that thing starts cracking more? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Can't say I've ever had to hold back an ocean before. But I'll give it all I can. My magic is very strong, though. Unless there's a limit on it that the wardens gave me without me knowing about it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Thanks for taking care of that. [Not that she is going to spend all her time on niceties.] Anything to report? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	[video] doesntdamsel 2013-05-26 10:58 pm UTC (link)
	A unicorn, at least I think that's what he is, put a shield up around the crack. Everyone is patroling their own zones and checking on the safe house in each. They've been instructed to encourage people to go to the safe area and report back if they have any problems. So far...it's all smooth, I think. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[video] kitty_has_claws 2013-05-29 12:15 am UTC (link)
	Shining Armor. [She nods.] You're right about the unicorn-ness. He's on one of the patrol teams. I guess that explains the purple bubble. Good. Hopefully it'll hold. Reid and I talked about some plan Bs if it doesn't. [Nothing that feels like a winner yet. If they had more time...] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[video] doesntdamsel 2013-05-30 10:25 pm UTC (link)
	Good. C, D and E might be a thing too. I wonder if Shining armor could bubble people and float them to the top of whatever ocean we're in or if the bubble would pop? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[video] kitty_has_claws 2013-06-04 01:29 am UTC (link)
	I guess we've got 26 possible attempts before we need a new naming system. That's something anyway. [She nods.] If powers stay reduced I'm going to bet he can't make it to the surface with all of us. At least not without some help. Some power combining might get us somewhere.

	Don't panic? Evil Ouija board movie. At least I assume you're confirming the movie thing with me and not singling me out in front of everyone to tell me not to panic. [Which he is totally NOT. So what...just a cracking dome between them and certain doom. He's seen worse.] That way lies embarrassment. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	doesntdamsel 2013-05-26 10:59 pm UTC (link)
	Yes, confirming the movie thing with you. That it was a movie, or part of a movie. Something movie-related anyway. Definitely not singling you out, but you're not panicking, right? This is me, doing friend duty instead of general duty and asking, not pointing out. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	notapirate 2013-05-29 02:11 am UTC (link)
	In that case, as one of my very best general friends, not to be confused with friends who are generals, you should know my panic levels are very manageable. Somewhere above random graveyard patrol and below apocalypse of the week. You? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	doesntdamsel 2013-05-30 10:27 pm UTC (link)

	[Now is not the time to be hung up on protocol and positions and that stuff, so she just won't be at all-- no promises once things calm down, though.

	[df lock] doesntdamsel 2013-05-26 11:01 pm UTC (link)
	[Buffy likely won't care either way. The only proper experience she's had with protocol was through the Initiative and that hadn't gone so well.] Great. That sounds like exactly what we need to be doing. What's the dealio with the barrier? [She assumes it's a special power of Tears ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[df lock] mysterymelody 2013-05-27 01:54 am UTC (link)
	How far along it is, you mean? [Sorry, slang sometimes throws her] The foyer is protected, and I'd really like to get everyone heading here to stick together in it-- rather than use up more energy to shield an entire building that likely won't be full anyway and not be able to keep it up as long. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[df lock] doesntdamsel 2013-05-27 05:05 pm UTC (link)
	Okay. That's good and yeah, trying to get everyone in the same area is good. Will it hold back a lot of water? The barrier I mean. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[df lock] mysterymelody 2013-05-27 07:01 pm UTC (link)
	All of it? It's stood up against similar in the past, though with my limits here, and factoring in the pressure and energy for air filtration... no more than 4 hours. The real trouble will be if the Wardens take too long to deal with this, or if that thing starts beating on my barrier next. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[df lock] doesntdamsel 2013-05-27 09:05 pm UTC (link)
