Who: Carswell Thorne & you!
Broadcast: Fleetwide.
Action: The Marsiva.
When: 2/25.

[ This isn't his ship. That's the first thing he notices when he wakes up. Not oh no I've been kidnapped or any such thing, just that this is not the Rampion. The networks's first view of him is somewhat dignified-- he's cursing and swearing that if "they" damage "her" in anyway there'll be hell to pay and muttering a few random names including Cress, Cinder, "that guy", etc. That's about when he pauses, realizes that there's an open communicator and shuts that off for the moment.

Shortly later, he reappears, far more composed and calm. He's somewhere more public than the bunks. Possibly a hallway. ]
Hello there, various [ vague hand gestures ] strangers. Lovely to meet all of you. I just have a few simple, small questions to ask. Answers or direction to a pamphlet would be greatly appreciated.

One, Where are we? Specifically in relation to, say, Earth?
Two, Has anyone seen a 214 Rampion? It's a 11.3 Class cargo ship. Yes, I realize it's likely not aboard this ship. [ pause ] Probably? How big is this place? Is there a sauna?
Three, Where can I find something edible?

Thank you for your time. [ He shuts it off. He can also be easily found wandering, as one does when they wake up on a random space ship without warning. ]

[Must be new person day. Chloe is perched on a chair in her lab, cigarette between her lips, and she gives the camera a wave.]

Yo, welcome to the fleet.

Let's see...Earth is either a billion miles away or not. Nobody has a clue. Never heard of a ship like that but if you came from it odds are it's not here, sorry.

Aaaand there's a cafeteria over there if you go snooping. Enjoy the food, it's...not as good once you leave.

Nobody knows how we get here, we just...do. Once second you aren't here, next second you are.

[Chloe had arrived from a rather terrible moment, so she didn't really mind.]

As for the food...just trust me. Enjoy what you can there. Steal some if you want!

[Video feed opens on a woman in the bridge of her ship. Her hair is maintained in a short buzz, but it's been a while since she's had need for the severe black makeup; she's a little softer around the edges now than she used to be.]

Hey. I'm Furiosa, Captain of the First Breath. Your rig likely isn't here. As for Earth ... [She gives a shrug.] Doubt we're anywhere near it.

A solid zero percent. My rig isn't hear, and I haven't heard of anyone else's showing up. You'd be the first. [Sorry, kid.]

I was on Earth, and then I wasn't. [Well, as much as one could still call it that, after the ruin.] Whatever tricks they used to bring us here, they're thorough.

[ okay, it can't be helped: ] A sauna? Really? That's one of the first things you ask about?

[ dude must really like saunas. ]

Not on the Marsiva, they don't. [ ... ] Guess you'll have to be patient.

As far as edibles go... afraid you're stuck with protein gel for now.

It's not terrible. Not fine cuisine, but it sustains you. Which is the point, really- it keeps on long space journeys longer than some food might.

Yeah- on planets and waystations, you can buy or barter for real food, so you won't be stuck without forever.

[Rogue basically just pings into this because of food. Easy question to answer.]

There's a cafeteria straight outside of the place where you wake up. [Pause a beat, and another line of text appears across the screen.] Music's less loud in the hallway too. FYI.

You can find something edible in the kitchens, but they're a bit . . . unsavory. Protein cubes, really. A bit squishy. But they do give you nutrition, so.

I have no idea, frankly. We've never met them. But I assume it's to add incentive for us to act interesting-- we get more money when we act interesting, which gives us a means to pay for real food when we stop at planets.
