(OPEN) TROLLEY REPAIR MINGLE?!
WHO: Anyone!
WHEN: Right after this post.
WHERE: Etrazim (Snake Island) and Farway, surrounding areas by the blue trolley line.
WHAT: Fixing the trolley car and tracks!
NOTES\WARNINGS: None so far, but users should write their CW warnings in their subject lines.
The blue trolley sits a short distance away from the train tracks, upright and derailed but at least not destroyed. The interior could use some help, and the exterior is covered in dings, and at least a few large dents in the outer shell, along with more scratches made by claws or talons. The worst problem is that it’s for some reason, located on Snake Island, making it inaccessible unless someone decides to brave the dangers of thousands of deadly snakes.
The rails are in bad shape too, considering that whatever giant rocks were being thrown around (and for some reason, show no trace of remaining), they’ve left craters along the tracks, making the rails uneven, and in some places, outright splitting the metal in half so the track is useless without some proper welding.
And there’s Jayce, in a clean white shirt with orderly buttons, but his hair is not nicely done as it could be. He’s standing nearby the station, which also has suffered some damage, but not in a way that would stop a train from running if it was fixed, and so it’s not a priority of his. He holds a little clipboard, a pen, and is writing down some notes when people begin to arrive.
“Hey, thanks for offering to help with this. There’s four tasks we need done.” Jayce clicks the pen, and turns his clipboard over to show who he’s speaking to the numbered list.
“One, clear the rubble and debris. Anything that could get in the way of the trolley should be moved at least twenty meters away. Two, any craters and pits need to be filled, with dense materials. No sand, no loose dirt. Three, we need an inspection of the tracks, and in places where it’s cracked, we need those to be cut out, reforged, welded back into place, and sanded until smooth. Finally, we need the trolley inspected, make sure the wheels aren’t dented, out of their alignment, or too loose, and then put back onto the tracks. Ideally, not on Snake Island. So someone who can “lift” it out of there, that’d be best. And if you feel like fixing the cushions or scratches, that’s fine, but not a priority. An ugly trolley car still moves.” Jayce gives half a shrug, and takes back his clip board.
“I don’t care how you do it, as long as it doesn’t hurt anyone, or make things worse,” and he gives a little ‘do what you will’ wave before he starts looking at the tracks that were split to assess how bad it is.

Shigeru Miyata | Original Character | OTA
[ So for anyone wondering what a scrawny looking guy like Shigeru is doing here, well...if you watch him from a distance or even close by, you'll see firsthand that he's not exactly normal. Aside from the undulating tentacles that he's using to pick up debris and things with, said tentacles will actually disintegrate whatever they're wrapped around, like it's nothing?? They also might have red eyes along with them, but please don't pay attention to those!! When it comes to fixing the tracks, Shigeru will be on his knees, black gloved hands hovering over the broken and bent pieces of metal. Again, he'll just remake the track by literally reforming the missing pieces from the already existing pieces still intact. He might wipe at his brow with his sleeve as he sits back and sighs. ] This is a lot harder than I thought it would be! But it's coming together pretty good...
[ He is talking to himself as he mumbles that, but also his tentacles are just squirming about around him. Nothing to see here! ]
Refreshments/Healing;
[ No good deed goes unpunished so if you somehow manage to get hurt during the clean-up process, Shigeru has a little table off to the side of where the efforts are taking place, stocked with some beverages, snacks like protein bars and things, and some first-aid materials just in case. When he's not helping remake and rebuild things, he'll be here to wave anyone over with a smile. ] It's not good to work on an empty stomach, so please have something to eat and-and drink! It's not much, but...but it should help!
clean up
it may be a little intimidating seeing a 3'3" hedgehog staring menacingly, but he always looks like that, no worries, shigeru! this resting bitch face is a staple to black and red hedgehog kind. ]
