The docks and beyond - Wednesday Evening - NFB

[badassprodigy]

With plans looming for this weekend, Barry was now at a point he could call the submarine he was building for Eleanor finished. He had already taken it out for a shakedown cruise to make sure everything was in order. Right now all that mattered was there was someone accomplished enough to drive the thing.

Which was why Barry was sitting on the dock and waiting for the pilot to show up for one more run before Friday.

[Mainly for Joker but open to anyone else who knows who they are and wish to see the sub. Handwavy invites apply.

The sub was already easing away from the dock. "I'm sorry, what?" Joker asked. "I couldn't hear you over the sound of AWESOME."

"You scratch this, you bought it," Barry joked and pointed at the monitor. "I've uploaded the maps Eleanor made of Rapture. If you stay close to the group you can tell what's coming at them at any time. They'll also have GPS units and comm devices so you can see what they see, hear what they hear and know where they are at all times."

Joker nodded appreciatively. "That is exactly what I like to hear." He poked at the controls, getting a feel for them. "Oooh, this is a nice little CNC setup, here. And don't worry, I'm not going hurt the sub -- we need it."

He spun the sub into a turn and headed for deeper water. Being used to spaceship sims the way he was, it felt ponderously slow, but he had an idea it was probably pretty quick for a watercraft. "Not too shabby!"

Barry rolled his eyes. "Okay, Mr. Spaceship. It's not going to fly through water like you would in space. Given enough practice you should be able to turn this fucker on a dime. Or given the current environment, a fucking jellyfish."
