Could I possibly get a reality check over here?

So Cute-Perky-and-Russian has gotten her crazy face on. Big freaking deal. Nobody's actually died, right?  I was wrong, apparently somebody did. I'd say my face was red, but, y'know.

Best case scenario, we all get a few bruises, tomorrow or next week or whenever she realizes what a total drama queen she's being and cools off. Normal service resumes. Worst case scenario, a few other people have to take a week off work for whatever reason. It sucks, then you get over it, then in a month there's some other disaster and nobody cares that this ever happened.

Other worst case scenario, the Barge crash-lands. Yeah, like we've never seen that before. Last time that happened it set back our schedule by, what, a week? Less? Like we're even in a hurry to get anywhere.

Also, you guys do know that the Admiral caps off powers that could accidentally wreck the Barge, right? Including Wardens? [She's mostly thinking about Bruce Banner here.] We're never gonna end up....I dunno, floating through interdimensional space, clinging to whatever scorched furniture we can keep hold of. We have way better insurance against Acts Of Blonde than Moscow.

Nothing unique or special is happening here. Just try to avoid sharp edges for the next few days and it'll blow over. Eesh.

[brb not caring]

Yeah, I was. And that also ended after a week, and we have no way of knowing if getting our faces melted off was what got the lights back on or if that was a total coincidence, so if anything that actually supports my point.

Supports it how? That we should just let more people die, keep praying to the Admiral and letting the Barge claim more sacrifices until the problem goes away?

More that worse has happened before, it didn't tear the Barge apart, and then it ended before the kill count got higher than, say, one of Arthas' bad days.

But hey, if that's the way you wanna see it, then go ahead. Past precedent demonstrates it always works.
