Ski Lodge - Sauna Martin has bought a guidebook to Pahuuden Maa and is carrying it tucked under his arm, a broad, thick, soft towel slung over his shoulder as he heads for the sauna. His cheeks are red from the outside chill, and he glances around as he heads for the changing room to see if any other familiar faces are around...
"Going in?"
Shopping / Wild Energy He's rented himself a cottage, but before he can go and enjoy his mountain hideaway, he needs provisions. Martin can be found going from stall to stall, sampling things and picking out his choices ... anyone wandering past may be asked their opinion on a particular cheese, or if they think this one particular piece of fruit looks like it's gone by - he's not quite the best at judging produce, you see.
Once he's finished picking everything out, he's on his way to hire a sleigh out to the cabin, when an Energy Burst from a nearby energy source breaks free, whirling up a dust devil and pulling his bags from his hands. Groceries scatter everywhere.
"Dammit!" He bares his teeth and dives after a bag of fingerling potatoes as it breaks open and starts rolling across the street. The devil doubles back before he can make any progress and pushes him into a mountainous snowbank. Martin glowers at the whirling cloud, as any effort he makes to try and extricate himself is just met with more gusts and snow. A little help would be greatly appreciated.
12/31: New Year's Eve Ball Drop - Mod-Approved Player Miniplot - CW: NPC Injury
Those sculptures in the Ice Palace had made for beautiful perusing, but the portal offers opportunities to test boundaries that his memories have just begun to make available to him. Some of the things that he's seen have made his sleep light, and combined with the madness of being snowbound in a cabin with Alec Crowley for a couple of days ... Martin's had plenty of time to think about what he wants to do, and how.
He buys a ticket for the Palace and brings a lighter tucked away in his pocket, along with a pick bought from the climbing supply shop. Under the guise of inspecting one of the sculptures, a sketchbook in hand, he hovers around each sculpture, ducking briefly into one room to leave his lighter open on a windowsill near a long, decorative drapery. By the time it catches fire and draws attention, he's a few exhibits away, at one particular sculpture. A few quick, precise taps of the pick with a surgeon's accuracy ensure that the globe has a precarious perch, while no one is looking. He drops the pick in a nearby garbage can and hustles over toward the fire, as though late to the revelation that something is going on.
When the giant ball of ice manages to roll off its perch, there's an innocent resident of Pahuuden Maa in its path. Oh dear ...
((OOC: This is mod-approved! Anyone tagging in can feel free to react to the fire or try to help the NPC! Martin will be caught by Pahuuden Maa authorities and cool his heels for a few nights in prison, then return to New York, thus being unavailable ICly for the rest of the event. He will, however, be doing his best to deny any involvement to any of the Different. Ping me on Plurk at hopepunk if you think your character might be able to point fingers and we'll talk!))
