Taking stock of his surroundings, and the information he received from Zaria, he turns to the waitress. Hello, ma'am - there doesn't happen to be any roof access on this train, does there?

Yelana's running around, exhausted at her youth and inability to work with anyone else. If Soren is in the Business class car (or the dining car), he would not be able to see Yelana's actions in the Economy car, since the doors are closed and the cars are soundproof.

Kintobor Posted August 27, 2021 Posted August 27, 2021 OOC: C_S is correct, Yelana moved from Economy to Dining, then... turned back around from Dining back into Economy and into Baggage while you and I are in Business, Legonater. Zaria, with Soren, stood by his side and crossed her arms in a relaxed position, waiting for a reply.

Checks are to represent the overall attempt at performing an action whether you try it once or a dozen times. They're not always a one to one correlation. The Dwarf is still sleeping.
Kintobor Posted August 27, 2021 Posted August 27, 2021 Zaria clears her throat and speaks to the steward. "If you don't mind me asking, how does the train propel itself forward? Are there any thrusters involved?"

Ah, OK. 👍 Yelana turned back and walked directly into the baggage car, closing and locking the door once inside. Setting the briefcase onto the floor, she turned to look at Abam. "<He's still out, right?>" "<SCANNING. . . >" Wasting no time, Yelana pulled the pens out of her pocket, activated her cloak, and began trying to pick the lock on the briefcase.

We might have to pay another visit to our friend in baggage, see if we can get to the roof from there.
Kintobor Posted August 28, 2021 Posted August 28, 2021 "That still does not take into consideration the drone which made its way through here. As much as I understand wanting to return to baggage, we are better off figuring out where that drone is." Zaria looked forward towards the door to engineering and then back down to the door leading to the dining car, unsure if it stopped her or continued forward through the train. She takes a moment to look through the Business car, looking for the drone.

Kintobor Posted August 29, 2021 Posted August 29, 2021 Zaria trusted the steward's word. She decided not to push the steward too much on any particular topic, not wanting to start a scene. She turned to Soren, speaking quietly. "You would not happen to have any ideas on us moving into engineering, would you?"
