1st Annual Halloween Block Party!



Perhaps it's the leaves of fiery golds and oranges drifting on the breeze, or the sight of various hard squash being mangled into festive ornaments, or even still the bowls of candy left out simply everywhere in the Nexus that signifies the import of today. Regardless of when you take heed, Halloween has come to the Nexus.

Neat little handmade signs and fliers of all kinds lead to a particularly festive sectioned off block with the Crossroads Cafe at the center. The brick building has more than its fair share of decorations hung from every available windowsill and door. Hanging skeletons, jolly Jack-O-Lanterns, orange and black streamers cascading down and blowing to and fro in the crisp breeze.

The doors are propped open just waiting to beckon you inside. What are you waiting for?

((See the OOC post if you have any questions! Backtagging and threadhopping are fine. Come on in and have a blast :D ))

"Okay, they send me to crawl through the sewers or air vents." Adam continues to be a little cheeky. "Or to break something valuable." Adam holds his hand up in the air, and he clenches his fist and he then puts his hand back down on the counter. "Or break a few skulls."

He tilts his head to the side, and he gives her an 'oh' face. "What happened to your ship? Or why aren't you living on your ship." And he wasn't serious about vending machines selling safes, or anything that would be too big for her to carry. "Maybe there's some type of failsafe or someone can upgrade them to have it so it can only be used by the owner."

"Is that... do you like that part of your job?" She can't imagine doing anything like that, but she's also a great deal smaller and weaker than Adam.

"It's grounded," she explains. "it didn't make much sense to keep the power running for the living quarters, once there was some housing built on New Caprica. Only the labs are still in use." Her room was tiny, roughly the size of a walk-in closet, but it was all hers, and she misses it.

She stares at Adam a moment. For a guy that they send in to bust heads, he sure has some brilliant ideas. "A thumbprint reader could work, or maybe a retinal scan, but... I wouldn't know how to upgrade a PINpoint. And I'm pretty sure the inventor -- at least, the one who invented mine -- isn't around anymore."

"The head breaking? I would rather avoid it if I can." Adam really prefers going for a more peaceful rout while on the job. And if he can avoid violence all together he is fine with it, but sometimes he is not left with a choice. "But..." He tries to find the words to explain if he likes what he does. "...I did enjoy making a difference for people back when I was a police officer in Detroit." Despite his standoffish and stoic attitude, Adam does have a decent heart when it comes to helping others.

Reaching for the whiskey, Adam finally goes to refill his glass, and he goes to take a drink. And he nods his head. "What about putting it under the floor panels?" Give it to Adam to try to think outside of the box. "And maybe not just finger prints, but something a bit more complex." And for Adam's case, he is lacking fingerprints or even eyes for an iris scan.

"But I'm sure this place has someone who can figure out how to install a good failsafe on to one of those. And I was thinking of something that can detect the user's DNA somehow." Adam puts his hand back to his chin, with his thumb rubbing his beard as he thinks. Indeed, he does have good ideas for someone who can be a brute.

It's nice to hear that Adam avoids violence when he can. It's something Adia takes no pleasure in, although she knows that it can be necessary in some situations. "I'll bet you were a great cop. What made you decide to change careers?"

Adia takes another small sip of whiskey. It makes her glass look barely touched -- Adam won't need to refill any time soon. Or at all, probably. "Fingerprints would probably be enough for me... unless you think the Cylons could bypass that technology? They can communicate directly with their ships, but I don't think they could directly access the PINpoint's hardware..." She frowns over the idea. "The problem with DNA is that someone could easily obtain your DNA and use it for access. It wouldn't have to be intrusive, it could be as simple as a hair follicle."
