Seriously thinking about firing Fire Couch. In lieu of his inexcusable prolonged absence, I will throw an update at you. My apologies for the huge delay, lets see if we can get back into the swing of things. As a bonus, free to make multiple actions in your post, 2-3 max. AND (as long as it doesn't involve you killing someone) you can ASSUME THE RESULTS OF YOUR ACTION. YAAAAYYYYY. See, doesn't that make it all better? You know that it does.
Noting Buck's panic, one of his cousins touches him lightly on the shoulder. "She went with some of the others to help look for survivors. They went down stairs, not sure how far."

A few of the others got down and helped Tyler as he struggled to open the door.
"I dreamed of Hank drowning," Ashley said in a tone barely above a whisper.
From inside the room Aaron clips a wire and darts further into the room. The door hisses and slowly, through Tyler and company's efforts, begins to open. A rush of water floods out from the room, drenching those standing from the knee down and briefly submerging those on the ground.
"Lets get those leaks fixed," one of the maintenance men said to the other as they stepped into the room.
Aaron found Frank right where he left him, with the water rushing out of the room Frank was no longer in danger of drowning, though his clothing was wet all the way up to his shoulders. He couldn't have lasted much longer.
A small pipe was sticking up out of his leg and other larger ones still pinned him down. "You got the door open," Frank said with a weak smile; his face was nearly white. "Good work." Blood continued to pulsate weakly from his wound.
Next update unscheduled but soon after the three of you update yours.
