everything's on fire
who: Everyone!
what: The residential building is on fire
when: ~2am, August 23rd
where: The Residential building
warnings: Fire, destruction of property, injury, general warnings for crisis situations
It's a reasonably quiet night, pleasantly dry with a slight breeze. Almost nice, for those that enjoy the hours after midnight long before dawn starts to creep on the horizon. Right until it isn't, when the air changes, and there's the scent of heat that promises smoke. In most places it starts with a flash of blue light that arcs from floor to floor as energy pulses through the building, and there's a crack of sound that follows. The power dies for a moment, and if you're one of the unlucky ones, the light that follows is a literal spark in the dark, burning to life in bright orange-red, yielding heat and smoke and trouble. The energy surge doesn't just hit the lights, but sparked flames that burst to life, and they catch quickly, spreading.
The worst of it starts on the ninth floor, where the smoke and the beginning of heat starts moments before the surge. The fire spreads faster there, people starting to startle awake and realize what's happening as the flames crackle. Eventually there's an announcement on the Network, both alerting people to what's happening and trying to organize both those that are willing to help and those that need it.
Some areas are untouched, while others are ravaged badly, reduced to ashes and crumbling ceilings, so watch your step. There's chaos, but through it there's people doing what they can to help each other, and the official fire services show up to help control the blaze. After that, it's just a matter of repairing the damage that's been done, rebuilding and putting things back together, seeing what's been lost and what was saved.
Even later, people start putting the pieces together, and there's the official investigation into what might have caused a fire like that in the first place.
[ooc: As promised, the residential building is on fire! OOC plotting post is here if anyone wants to work out some last minute plans before diving in. Plotting post also includes the relevant details. Elsewise, just top level and mingle. Try not to get burned too badly. :) Good luck!]

"Yeah... I hope so we can, too."
He wasn't sure if he would. He was tired, but stirred up, so calming down was going to take a bit. Not to mention any weird dreams and feeling jumpy about it happening again, even if they were in a different building now.
"I wonder how it started."
no subject
"I wonder that too. I was wake at the time. It sounded like it was only the floor below us, from the 9th floor. The power went out and there was a weird flash along the wall."
Now, would Keith notice that Shiro just implied he had been on Floor 10 at the time of the fire? At 2am? Also would Shiro find what he was looking for? Who knows.
no subject
"I saw the flash, too, but it seemed odd, right? And... the ninth floor?" First, who was on the ninth floor that could have done something, because that flash, which had come down to Keith's floor, hadn't looked normal to him. And second, and probably less importantly overall, but more interesting to Keith specifically, was actually indeed the fact that Shiro hadn't been on the fifteenth, but on the tenth.
"Were you visiting someone?"
no subject
How he knows what an electrical fire looks like is one question. And then the question of the day, why was Shiro on the tenth floor. He glanced over from his searching of the room to look over at Keith.
"I couldn't sleep. Hana texted me around 1 with the most random question so we were playing video games on the tenth floor."
Shiro... playing video games... with a girl... at 1am. Have fun with that Keith.
no subject
"Video games?"
no subject
Yeah, she was a pro at video games and Shiro didn't stand a chance. Shiro again glanced around the room, again trying to figure out where something in the room would be.
no subject
no subject
"And yes, I do realize she's a pro-gamer. Just means its more of a challenge." He really doesn't care she's beating him every time. He just has to practice more.
no subject
"We could just wait until morning and see if they have something at the front desk," he said. Please, Shiro... relax. But the comment about it being a challenge... Keith looked amused.
"Feeling competitive?"
no subject
He shrugged a little at the second comment. "At the moment, I'm just trying not to be defeated as quickly."
no subject
Keith was curious. Was this A Thing now? Not that he wasn't happy for Shiro if it was, because that would be nice. Shiro needed something like that, and Keith would like to see him happy like that again. But, it was also kind of amusing to think about.
no subject
Completely skipping over that he went down to her floor at 1am to play video games. That was the interesting part of the story to other people but it wasn't something that was really crossing his mind.
no subject
"With Hana." Yes. Keith was smirking a little.
no subject
Yes, that had seriously been her question.
no subject
Okay, so now Keith was really amused. Sorry, Shiro. This wasn't going to get easier.
no subject
"Wait, what? No. Why would you ask a question like that?"
However, there is a faint grin he can't seem to get rid of.
"I tried to explain it in a text and because I was awake she asked if I wanted to play video games with her."
no subject
SMIRK.
no subject
Sure, Keith. Keep smirking at him...
no subject
Smirk expanding to grin...
"She's also a pro-gamer. Gaming is like her thing."
no subject
He can also see that smirk and knows what he is implying.
"She is. It's a good challenge playing against her."
no subject
no subject
Since stars were something Shiro liked. But he also realized he wasn't helping his case that this hadn't been a date considering they were both sharing things the other liked.

He almost slid himself under the blankets, but then remembered something. "Hm..." He got up, still being careful of that left ankle, and headed into the bathroom.
"Probably not a bad idea to at least shake this thing out before I try to sleep in it, right?" he said as he closed the door. The undersuit of the Paladin armor still smelled like smoke, too, and Keith grimaced at it as he inspected it. Thankfully, if it had been damaged, whatever had happened to him while he was talking to Lola fixed it. He couldn't find anything wrong with it other than some lingering soot and that burning building smell.
Gross enough...
He was careful not to make a huge mess in the process, at least, before coming back out and climbing back into bed, this time under the blankets.
