Blackbird

[xp_cyclops]

 *pours one out for the poor blackbird*

Now that a proper mourning period has passed it's time to rebuild the blackbird..or start anyway. If anyone wants to help, or has ideas they'd like to integrate into the new blackbird now's the time to speak up.

...


No we're not putting in a chocolate fountain.

I'm not an engineer, nor can I fly a jet, but I am happy to help pick out fabric and paint swatches!

[xp_cyclops]

That's good cause I would probably just go with plain black leather.

You're hired. Let me know what you think of!

[xp_pixie]

Yay! Black is great, but there are so many different kinds of black and so many new types of fabric, including nanofabrics. And what about an accent color? When I look to nature, I think of the red-winged blackbird winging across the road between open fields. There are also blackbirds with an iridescent sheen that can hint at blue, green or even purple.

I mean I'm gonna be stupid grunt labor but I'm good at being stupid grunt labor, so sign me up for helping.

I have no useful suggestions. I want a hot tub and a ice cream maker.

[xp_banshee]

Don't call yourself stupid.

Sadly, I don't have any useful suggestions save perhaps don't have any seats facing backward and if you can fit it, you might consider having a location specific designated for teleporters who visualise instead of using coordinates? And perhaps a stock area for powers inhibitors and image inducers?

Do the comm devices you lot use work as sound blockers, as well? Might want to get a few pairs of those.

One of the benefits of being deaf. I never have to deal with engine noise.

I really need to teach everyone ASL.

[xp_banshee]

Actually, I meant more for people who aren't immune to sonic powers. Is the engine noise on the plane that bad?

[xp_cyclops]

Hot tub no...ice cream maker we can talk. Something to let people relax after a long hard mission on the way back home.

After all you've done over the years I'm pretty sure we can promote you. Let me check with the boss.

He said yes.

Just put in an easy bake oven

[xp_daredevil]

serious suggestion though - is there some sort of override or autopilot *I* could operate in an emergency? because I don't remember one beyond "we have an autopilot"

[xp_darcy]

Wireless charging. Stripper pole probably inappropriate unless we can drop it down like a fire pole to escape… hmmmmm

[xp_cypher]

120" TV for inflight movies.

[xp_shadowcat]

Have you ever seen the movie "Soul Plane"? Cause that might be a good starting point.

[xp_wildchild]

You know bossman, now that I think about it, what ... are you pouring out for the bird? Because I just can't see you with a fotie.

Is it a green smoothie? Is it milk. It's whole milk isn't it?

[xp_blackwidow]

Hidden weapons compartments? Extensive first aid stockholds?

[xp_wolverine]

Uniform storage with the rate we go through them on missions. Also someplace to throw the shredded ones in for reuse or something.

Show me what to do and I’ll do it. I’m pretty much a gold mine of technique as long as you show me once.
