[EVENT] A STROKE OF SABOTAGE
Characters: ALL
Date: April 16th-April 30th
Location: Keeliai, various
Situation: Just when you think things are working a little too well...
Warnings/Rating: To be added as needed.
---
It starts small - a few greenhouses have seen their crops wither, and the kedan frantically scramble to find the cause. By the time they do, it’s too late. Three days later, the problem seems to occur in every single one of the major greenhouses and hydroponics stations; plants withered and dead, and several kedan sick and showing signs of Dust poisoning after contact with the water supply. While there were no deaths, all had to go to the Healers Guild and several had severe enough reactions that their stay was more than just a brief treatment and overnight observation.
The initial response from a few of the more superstitious kedan is that the run of bad luck has culminated in the ruin of their efforts. More level-headed kedan will be inclined to take a more scientific approach. Kyde and a number of chemists are called in to take samples.
As one might expect (or not, as the case may be), Dust had been somehow integrated into the water that feeds the hydroponics and greenhouses, which wound up killing the plants and sickening the kedan. While it hadn’t made it into the main water supply for the city, there was clearly enough of an organized effort that it affected the public greenhouses and hydroponics systems. Every piece of equipment that comes in contact with the water will have to be flushed to prevent another die-off. It's a big setback, and the process will take several weeks to complete, reigniting concerns about food shortages.
The culprits even left a calling card - painted on the walls or tarps is a message: MALICANT WILL RISE.
Tensions are high everywhere in the city, and morale is low as the culmination of the kedan and Foreigner’s hard work was ruined and, while they aren’t back to square one, there is an enormous amount of work ahead. Going forward, there is an urgent call for the development of better filtration systems to keep out toxins while still distributing essential nutrients, and better security. The kedan will be looking toward Foreigners for assistance in these matters.

Funny thing about being a ghost. Even kedan criminals seemed to be inclined to drop things and run after a little constructive spookiness.
Spotting Chat on one of his circuits around the shopping areas, Danny drops down from the sky and takes a seat right beside him.
"Hey, what's up?"
no subject
There's a distinct lack of puns and overly goofy grins here. Chat doesn't really feel the need to put on the whole act around Danny. Danny is safe. He can be himself around him, even if that 'himself' is currently not all that super fun to be around. His tail twitches over the side of the roof, unsettled.
"All that Malicant stuff is really riling everyone up."
no subject
Danny looks out into the dark street below.
"I can't really blame them. I don't know much about the whole Malicant thing, but this whole thing right now is creepy. And when a ghost is saying that, you know its bad."
no subject
Chat at least manages a chuckle, an acknowledgement something punny was said.
"Tell me about it. It's really spooky. I mean...you don't think it's possible, right? That he could just...come back?"
no subject
no subject
"...I rescind my last comment and we can pretend I didn't say anything horribly offensive," a pause. "You can make a bad cat joke if you want."
no subject
"Nah, don't worry about it. Trust me, that is not the worst thing I've heard." He frowns. "But did you seriously forget about the whole ghost thing for a moment there?"
no subject
He at least offers an apologetic smile for that. He really sucks at separating identities. Especially for an actual superhero with an actual secret identity of his own.
no subject
Acceptance. Being able to be just Danny to people. Sometimes it seemed like almost everyone he knew only liked half of him. His parents liked his human half and hated his ghost half. Valerie was like that too. So many people in Amity Park thought Danny Phantom was cool, but Danny Fenton was just a weird loser.
It was hard, sometimes.
Danny gives Chat a crooked grin in return.
"Don't ever apologize for that. There's not a lot of people who can say that."
And it meant something to him.
no subject
He offers Danny a lopsided grin in return. Or rather, he tries, but it morphs into something much more genuine.
"I know how that one goes. But that's why you got me. Lucky you."
no subject
Another grin right back.
no subject
"That too! We got each other."
