((Im under the impression that the drains arent blocked by forcefields because that would defea the purpose of having a toilet.
Im basically phasing my shoulder into the toilet so that the forcefield is in line with my armpit then im sliding my arm through the wall of the plumbing on the other side of the field and grabbing the device that way.))
You are entirely correct. Just making sure I understood your intent.
Elena and Selina head to the conference room and await the arrival of those not yet present.
So they do. There are a few others present, mostly heroes--Argonaut (right at the front of the room, preparing his presentation), Bullhit, Momentum, Prefab, Scatterstep, and Sliver. There is also one bloody man that looks familiar to Selina and Delphinium, but they can't place him. Thalsian has no such issues--he recognizes Selina immediately.

Delphinium notices something...odd about Argonaut's mind. It looks exactly the same, but...it's like rereading a book you loved as a child and realizing that it was a metaphor for the Holocaust or promoting misogyny or really badly written or something. The same main-mind, second-mind thing that is in Selina's mind is sort of present in Argonaut's, except that the secondary one, the angry one in Selina's head, is more orderly and more subtle, almost absent. Now that she recognizes it, she sees it present in Bullhit, a little stronger.
What's going on?
((Does Kevin's power immunity beat my emotional detection? Going to assume yes.))
((It's blurry, and emotional control completely absent, but you can still sense the emotions. At this level, it's more strong power resistance than outright immunity. Not that Delphinium would be likely to notice that at the moment.))
Steven leans into the toilet, through the plumbing system, and out of the force field. It feels odd when he sticks his arm through the pipes with water in them, like the "him" is expanding, almost losing cohesion a little. He has begun reaching around for the force field generators--the PVC pipe was placed right between four of them--when his thoughts are interrupted by Slither.
"You aren't making it easier for yourself by trying to escape, you know. First you don't even pretend to show remorse, now you try to...escape, vandalize, whatever? I was hoping that this was a misunderstanding, a mistake, but this is seeming less and less likely."
