fandomhighdorms | First Floor Lobby: Sunday evening...

Nadia wandered back into the dorms after being dropped off by Lucas after work.

She still wasn't entirely sure if she still trusted Lucas. But the alternative was walking back alone in the snow, so she decided against that.

She was rather surprised to see her shop teacher in the lobby when she got in, though.

"Um, Mac? What are you doing?"

"Couldn't sleep," Mac replies. "So I thought I'd head down to the basement and check out an old student's room. He had some computer equipment that might work with the Danger shop and I thought I'd check it out. Want to come along?"

Nadia gave but a moment's thought to the fact that she should get to bed.

Her only class tomorrow was with Mac. If she slept through it because she was helping him with a project, well, he'd have to understand.

Dream would perhaps be disappointed in this impulsive choice, though.

"Yeah. Okay. I've got my tape and leatherman in my bag."

"Excellent. We'll consider this extra credit."

"Sounds good."

Parker cam in stamping her feet, and shivering a bit. "Hey, Professor MacGyver," she said, a little preoccupied.

"Hey Parker. How are you doing this fine evening? We were just about to head toward the basement to check out an old students room. Interested in joining us?"

Parker cocked her head. It's not like she had any burning desire to do her homework. "Which student? That *could* be fun, depending."

"Kid by the name of Marshall. Apparently he was an electronics genius, and I'm thinking he might have left something useful down there."

"Cool." Parker makes a mental note to tell Broots about this later, maybe. "Do I need to bring anything? Carbiner, bungee cords...?"

Mac leads the group down to the basement and ends up in front of Marshall's door.

There appears to be an electronic lock on the door.

"This is the room. Nadia? You've been taking the class. What do you think we should try to do to get the door open? Or do you have any ideas Parker?"

Nadia looks at the lock for a long moment. "Well, when we did the locked lab assignment, kicking the lock worked pretty well. Or we could try shorting it out,"

"What do you think Parker?" Mac asks.

Yes. He's testing students and he has a grin on his face.

Parker studied the lock, and said, "Cutting the power always works in the movies, but if this guy knew anything about electronics, he'd definitely have not made that the override." Parker frowned, studying the lock. "Maybe bypass the lock completely?"

Nadia nodded. "Just break it down. I mean, he's no longer a student here, right?" She frowned. "We're not breaking into an actual student's room, are we?"

"I think breaking in would be frowned upon. Let's see about disabling the lock," Mac says putting his SAK to work.

He swiftly removes the casing revealing the components.

"So should we try to hotwire it? Or zap it?"

"Zap," Parker suggested. "I've got hairspray, a lighter, and some liquid paper here in my purse. That should go up nicely."

[OOC: I have a plot already worked out thanks. Feel free to join us.]

[[Okay. Should I comment up at the meeting part or just have Pip investigate the noise coming from the basement?]]

[OOC: Hop in at the basement thread. You on Aim?]

A monotone voice is heard.

"Initializing security protocols..."

Nadia flinched. "That . . . doesn't sound good."

"We're friends! Friendlies! Allies! Something!" What the hell, worth a try.

Pip grimaced. "And suddenly my impetus to be curious ever again is killed," he muttered.
