March 15th, Turbolift Malfunction | OTA, but paging Henry Mills and Zoey Westen~
Ten Forward
The lights in the lounge just flickered pretty spectacularly and went out for several long seconds. The silhouette of Pete stays very still, until a strange blue glow lights his face. It's his cell phone. "Uh. Ground Control to Major Tom? I have lost visual on my coco puffs. I repeat, coco puffs are AWOL."
He scoots his chair out and starts feeling his way around the room, trying to help. This ends the way you'd probably expect: with a loud crash and a Pete-shaped lump on the floor. "I'm okay!"
Turbolifts
Once the power is back on he hurries into the first available turbolift to make sure everyone he knows is okay and accounted for. He'll start at Myka's room and work his way from there. Uh, except common sense probably should have told Pete that if there were power issues he probably should have taken the stairs.
"Zoinks!" he shouts, gripping the back wall of the lift as it grinds to a stop. Right, so this whole starship Enterprise thing is uh-mazing so far -- he's already made mortal enemies with a Klingon and asked Captain Picard if he could rub his head for luck, so that's pretty much his bucket list taken care of. But is he really trapped in a turbolift on the Enterprise? Is this for real happening? "Ruh-roh."
Don't mind the guy in the corner who is not panicking, because he's too busy giggling with glee. The narration promises he isn't dangerous.

Turbolift
But when the turbolift stopped, he looked around at the sound effects. At least Henry wasn't one for panicking.
"Are you okay?" He asked, wondering if they were stuck between floors or if he could just Keyblade them out of here.

Only to have it give up the ghost.
Oh for fuck’s sake. Not that she’s particularly surprised. She’s used to this sort of shit, anymore. It’s a side effect of being yanked about the multiverse. The Scooby noises, coupled with the giggling from her fellow turbolift inhabitant make her raise an eyebrow, though.
“Are you all right? Or should I get you a doctor,” she deadpans.
