Black Gold: Ascending (NSFW, Semi-Grimdark, Literate)

@Jinx  
the task list were a few routine checks, nothing too exciting.

@Cerebrate19  
she followed as usual

@Jinx  
a few pipe leaks, one looking to have been caused by a screwdriver too…

@Cerebrate19  
she calls for a welding tool

@Jinx  
Keen Eye delivers it personally.
 
“good thing that’s not one of the oil pipes.”

@Cerebrate19  
Id call an emergency shutdown if it were. Explosions are cool but not when im in them.

@Jinx  
“this one belongs to the heating, the only stuff coming through here would be sludgy water. should be fine to fixe like this.”

@Cerebrate19  
she puts on goggles and starts up the machine, sparking the gas and getting a fine flame. She continues on to weld the pipe shut and any other leaks she sees

@Jinx  
“the heating, the harnesses… i think they want to convince the workers to leave.”

@Cerebrate19  
Its not working.

@Jinx  
“not yet anyways.”

@Cerebrate19  
Weve seen everything theyve done with no news getting out*

@Jinx  
“no news, but the rumor mill is flying off the handle.”

@Cerebrate19  
Speech?

@Jinx  
(huh?)

@Cerebrate19  
(Does he want to give a speech?

@Jinx  
(no, what a strange question.)

@Cerebrate19  
(Not exactly but ok)

@Jinx  
(why would he give a speech?)
