The Observers and the Observed

Who: Everyone interested in .~*STARS*~.
Where: Sagittarius labs; topmost floor.
Summary: The renamed Ophiuchus Observatory has been opened to the public, as well as volunteers willing to scan the heavens. Perhaps the answer to the Zodiac Effect truly does lie within the stars...?
Music: LAW
Warnings: Space, also science.
When the Visitors had first seen the Sagittarius Labs last September, the Anoli attacking made it difficult for many to truly get a grasp for the building itself. They were told that the fourth floor connected to the roof, which had been breached, and that they would have to defend the labs.

That was only mostly true.

The building had been constructed with demon-studying in mind, and was thus nearly impossible to navigate on one's own. Hallways went to nowhere, and space did not behave as one would have liked. The roof, for example, was truly connected to the fourth floor. But the fourth floor was not truly only one of four floors.

The deception could be easily noticed from the roof of the Sagittarius Labs, which now housed the renamed Ophiuchus Observatory. The building was much, much taller than it seemed on the outside- it seemed to tower over all the other buildings in the area. The observatory had been used exclusively for keeping an eye on the moon phases before, but with the increased threat of the Zodiac Effect, it had been upgraded to a much more proper catadioptric telescope. To aid citizens and visitors alike in getting to the observatory without having to undergo complex navigation, a service elevator had been installed to lead right to the domed roof. The machine was simple to use, and did not require any training to use- the only request the labs had was that people report any peculiarities they observed in the night sky.

I'm just a smart investor.

[And inventor. And patent hoarder, but that's just because people keep making weapons out of things they shouldn't.]

I suppose that's true. Are we expecting something to change the stars though?

[Glancing up at the sky, he doesn't like thinking too hard on what that could mean.]

Aaah, my mistake then.

[Although he suspects that isn't all there is to it, he won't voice that.]

Considering the changes that we've experienced so far... Well, let's just say that the stars rearranging themselves one night wouldn't surprise me in the slightest.

What sort of changes?

[He doesn't even know how he is going to be a help to this place, for now it's all about gathering information.]
bondsofsuffering: ([Sigh] from God or a)

Extreme personality shifts, to say nothing of the time when a bunch of us were randomly teleported into a completely different world. Even entire buildings from peoples' worlds have a habit of showing up here out of the blue.

Entire... buildings...?

[Nope. Nope. Nope. Nope. Nope.]

Let's hope it doesn't come to that.
bondsofsuffering: ([Surprise] all the answеrs)

[personal profile] bondsofsuffering 2013-05-29 11:42 pm (UTC)(link)
Haa... Don't tell me there's a building in your home that might cause trouble if it comes here.

It depends who comes through with it. If Jenkins is there, it won't be a problem.

[If Jenkins were here things would be so much simplier.]

If not...
bondsofsuffering: ([Think] out of it)

[personal profile] bondsofsuffering 2013-06-02 02:23 am (UTC)(link)
I haven't heard of any cases of people coming along with the buildings, but I suppose there could always be a chance of him arriving on his own...

What's the big deal about it, though?

Let's just say that if it does come through, I need to know about it ASAP. If I can keep it locked down, or if my team is there to keep it locked down, then there won't be any problems.
bondsofsuffering: ([Sigh] Losing everything was)

[personal profile] bondsofsuffering 2013-06-04 08:06 am (UTC)(link)
Locked down-

Hey, hey, hey. Just what do you have in there?
