MCA #5, Thursday Morning

[electrocynic]

This week could just go bum itself, for all Sarah cared. As if it wasn't enough to be moping about personal reasons anyway, of course she had to feel twitchy and restless for a fucking week too. And to top it all off, this morning she was woken up by her phone ringing across the room, and she'd had to stumble out of bed, and of course it was a bloody telemarketer because she wasn't annoyed enough already.

So as she made her way to the kitchen to get a glass of orange juice (because surely that would make things a little better), she was giving the telemarketer a piece of her mind (in words not fit for anyone's ears, ever). She was actually almost starting to enjoy it, in a perverse way, when she opened the fridge door.

She was out of orange juice.

And the telemarketer was still trying to prattle in her ear about something she didn't want.

And she was just so frustrated, and annoyed, and angry, that without her meaning to, her voice went electronic.

"Shut up, shut up, SHUT UP, |SHUT UP!|"

And then the light in the fridge went out, as well as the one on the ceiling, and it got really quiet in her apartment. Her phone was silent too. Because she'd just short circuited everything in the whole damn flat.

As well as probably various other parts of the building, to varying degrees.

Whoops.

"... Great."

[ooc: Annnd there is electrical trouble at MCA! Open both for bitching at Sarah as well as general directions elsewhere in the building, should you wish!]

Sorry about all your coffee machines and stuff. But maybe you just got random mood lighting for your sexytimes?

Coulson was going through his standard morning news brief in his apartment when the power went off. He sighed, finished his coffee, and went to get a flashlight so he could check the problem out.

Jaye didn't notice anything till she got home after radio. She tried to turn on the light, found that it was off, found that flicking the light switch on and off for a while anyway was somehow both satisfying and not helping, and wondered if she was going to have to find somewhere to stay till this got fixed.

Ahem.

But no seriously she was totally going to use that as an excuse.
