[OPEN] January Lab Mingle!

[sciencelizard]

Who: Anyone at the Lab!
What: General Lab mingle for January.
Where: The Lab
When: From January 10th-February 9th. A new one will come out for next month then!
Warnings: Should be fine; individual toplevels will be tagged appropriately!

The Lab sits right around the clinic and shops on the west island and provides a laboratory workspace for the more scientifically inclined residents of Hadriel.

The original design of the lab is one large, open room; think of how an empty warehouse store might look, but at maybe half to a third of the size. The area is filled with tables, desks, chairs, and a whiteboard and chalkboard, wherein people have set up different stations and zones. The walls are full of shelves, many of which have been converted to cabinets over the years, that hold anything characters would like to populate them with.

In the center of the lab, a CRT monitor style supercomputer rests; it's been repaired a number of times, and despite looking clunky, it seems to still work and makes a horrible dial-up noise when turned on. It runs on it's own power source, a generator set up next to it that seems to run on some sort of magic and electrical source that keeps it chugging along. In addition, many of the stations house their own modifications; check the comments below to see specific changes and areas to the space itself.

Near the back, there are also a few, smaller rooms in the back: two supply closets and a slightly bigger closed-off kitchenette (it's got a Hadriel style microwave and fridge like the ones found in the apartments) and lounge space adapted from a side bedroom. There's a pull out couch that was dragged in there by the original creators as a god-given favor, so it does not match the other decor at all. There's also a staircase to the roof for... roof stuff, I don't know, whatever the hell you wanna do up there. Keep it PG-13, kids.

This is a MINGLE, so please create your own top-levels and tag around! Full details of the lab, supplies, and it's regular residents can be found on our community at underfunded. Have fun!

[The lab is slightly boring this month given that Door Day's monsters were, uh... Large. Too large to do much with, honestly. Newt's used to working on much larger back home, but back home, he also has the proper equipment for that kind of endeavor and, more importantly, crews out in the field do to the heavy lifting for him. He is not up to field dressing an actual dinosaur.

Or, well, he could if he really wanted to. But he doesn't. So.

Instead of studying the Door monsters, Newt has actually spent most of his time outside of the lab searching for those weird nautilus things that everyone on the network keeps talking about. He's come up empty, though, and no one's managed to get him any physical evidence of them just yet. Running into one out in the wild would, uh, probably not be a great experience, but it's better than sitting around twiddling his thumbs over hearsay.

He happens to be in the lab now though, warming up from his recent trek outside. He's at his desk, huddled over a fresh mug of coffee as he studies the sketches he's done of the giant flying dinos in the coliseum. They remind him of Otachi, and that definitely doesn't have anything to do with him opting out of corpse-hauling this month.

Come give him something more interesting to do, or if you're visiting during the event, help him find his coffee mug that was literally just in his hand what the hell...? Crap, did his mimic get out again? And who put that pile of Null scrap next to his desk?]

[ Following his conversation with Alphys, Knock Out dropped by the Lab a bit later. Time to continue making a good impression, he hopes. ]

Dr Alphys?
