ROCK'EM SOCK'EM ROBOTS [BIG OPEN FIGHT LOG]

[sufferist]

Who: Signless, Robots, and YOU
Where: City Hall, and all over downtown LA.
When: April 14th
What: Signless bates the Cybetronians into having a big fight in downtown LA while attempting to get a valuable artifact. Earth civilians and superheroes are SUPER WELCOME to notice the fuss and try to stop the fighting/safe people from collateral damage.
Warnings: SUDDENLY ROBOT ULTRAVIOLENCE

Signless leaves himself, and the hammer, visible at first. He wants them to see him, to know that the battle is imminent - and with any luck, a conflict will start. He'll do his best to disappear and keep them hunting for him as as long as possible after he's initially been spotted. Maximum collateral damage is his goal.

It also helps that he's an empath. He'll be taking whatever opportunities he can to agitate people's emotions, whether it be anger, panic, or fear, in the attempt to make ever more chaos.

This is a party style log, meaning you can make you own threads and scenarios. Signless will be around with the hammer. LET'S MAKE THIS AS BIG OF A CLUSTERFUCK AS POSSIBLE, GUYS.

[If a robot destroys her business, she's going to make somebody pay for it. That's Moriarty's first thought on all this, anger rising hard enough that it's difficult to keep it off her face. But she's an excellent actress, and before she gets to the area to see what's going on, Irene Adler is fixed to be all people can see, concerned and more than a little scared.

Her priority one is keeping herself intact and safe. But if she sees somebody who needs a little help getting to safety, or worse yet, someone familiar in trouble -- well, Irene's not a total coward and not completely selfish, either. Robots or not, she can't risk talk of some out-of-character self-centeredness, just in case anyone notices.

She won't be getting involved in the main fight, though. You couldn't pay her enough to go in there without proper preparations or guards, and Irene isn't the type to go rushing into something so above her abilities either.]

[She's fortunate enough to be presented with an easy opportunity, in the form of a struggling celebrity – one of the rampaging robots stepped on the hood of her car, and in her attempt to extricate herself and get to safety Vanessa has been injured by shrapnel. Frustrated and for once rather frightened, without any means to summon assistance, she's limping along the sidewalk, trying to stay out of the way of the fighting.]

[definitely a convenient chance for someone invested in maintaining a certain reputation – helping her out of the battle zone should be low-risk, and indeed, Vanessa Goldpaw is enough a well-known figure that the fact that Irene did help anyone at all would definitely get around...]
