Who: Crew and visitors aboard the SS Goldstone
Broadcast: N/a
Action: aboard the SS Goldstone and planetside in the Yadrolla System
When: Throughout May?

[It's a mingle, ya'll!]

mikangirl

Who: Space Bar staff and special guests
Broadcast: N/A
Action: Space Bar!
When: One fine night after closing

[The Space Bar staff made good use of the ever-replenishing alcohol supply at their last stop, and Nami and Remy got around to discussing the idea of testing various experimental mixes to come up with new additions for the menu. I mean, add to that Nami hasn't made a decision which one of the applicants should take the main bar job, so clearly the best idea is to shove them all into one place and ply them with alcohol while they talk to each other and work it out after that.

No, it's a good idea. Shut up.

...okay. It may just be a good excuse for a party. Sue her.]

((ooc: this is a mingle! It's open to job applicants and regulars who hold their liquor and their plus ones. If you think that might mean you, you're more than welcome here!))

Who: Baku and you
Broadcast: yes
Action: The Caprine
When: now!

( accidental broadcast )

[later, she puts up another broadcast, only this time it's strictly voice only. She does not sound very happy]

Can a glitch keep someone from returning to their human form? Asking for a friend.

[at least her sense of humor is intact]

I guess, while I'm here - if anyone has any nightmares they'd like to get rid of, I'd be happy to eat them. It might be a power thing keeping me like this, I don't know.

[...] And yes, I'm being literal.

Thank you in advance.

Who: Ochako & you!
Broadcast: Yes!
Action: Yes!!
When: Now and throughout the week

( starstruck )

[The camera clicks on to Ochako, who is in full costume for once! Sans the helmet, at least for now. It's tucked under her arm. She shuffles from foot to foot, waves, and then bows slightly.]

Hello everyone! I have a request. Would any of the fleet's engineers be able to make something for me? Like, um. Rocket-y? I heard about there being a jetpack a while back... so something like that is what I'm looking for. And if you know anybody who can do that sort of thing, please ask for me! All I know is maintenance, so I'm kinda useless when it comes to making cool gear... I can collect parts, though, if you need anything from the planet!

Oh, and I'm not asking for free! I can pay if you want money... well I don't have a lot but maybe I could pay over time? I can also cook for you and your ship, or bring my little bots over to clean, or... we can work something out!

[She pauses to think for a moment, puzzling over what she might have forgotten, and then-]

Right! The other thing! Is there anybody with super-strength who can help me practice? I want to try a few things that I can't do on my own.

Thanks, everybody!

( iskaulit )

[Ochako's in overdrive today! And all week, really. She's discovered the parkour course and is running through it, over and over, only taking small breaks between to catch her breath and get a drink. She's practicing activating and cancelling her Quirk in quick succession, using her temporary moments of weightlessness to launch herself into higher jumps over the equipment than her small legs would normally allow.

Sure, it means once in a while she loses control and faceplants spectacularly, but that's what practice is for!

When she isn't practicing, she'll be wandering around the Iskaulit, poking her head into rooms less-often visited to see what's changed, or tidying up the art therapy room she likes to visit since it's been mostly abandoned for a while now. She'll be all over at sporadic times.]

Who: Beat and all y'all
Broadcast: Yes!
Action: Marsiva, SS Bishop
When: 3/23 and 3/24

( Action: Marsiva - BOOM BOOM BOOM )

Broadcast: Marsiva 3/23
[Despite being a teenager, he's from a time before smartphones and fancy cameras built into tablets. So when he starts up the communication device, he's mad that it's taken him this long to figure it out, and it shows.]

UGH FINALLY.

[He holds the device out at arm's length like he's about to take a selfie.]

Name's Beat. Who do I gotta punch t'get back home, huh? I got stuff I gotta do that ain't here in space.

( Action: SS Bishop - WHOMP WHOMP WHOMP )

Who: Katara and you!
Broadcast: Video, from the Marsiva
Action: Action on the Marsiva and then then post!Shuffle on the Vanquish
When: Friday, 3/23

( Action for the Marsiva )

[ Video Broadcast while on the Marsiva ]
[Serious blue eyes peer out in stark contrast to dark skin as a girl of about eighteen addresses the fleet.]

Hello, my name is Katara. I'm from the Southern Water Tribe, but I've spent the past four years [Had it really been that long? Her expression flickers for a moment.] in a place called Luceti. I understand a... lot of basic information about this place from the augment, but I'm sure there's more to this place than just what is implanted in our heads by our captors.

[Frowning, angry at that, needing to take a visible breath before she can continue.] I'd appreciate any additional information you feel it's safe to give out over these things. And... [Her gaze drops for a moment before she regains her composure and looks back at the camera.] ...if anyone knows the name Luceti, or has heard of the Southern Water Tribe, I'd appreciate it if you'd let me know about that too.

[She manages a brief smile.] Thank you so much.

( [ Action after the Shuffle - Hello, Vanquish!] )

spacebro

Who: Mon-El and YOU!
Broadcast: Yes
Action: And yes!
When: Anytime between 3/10 and 4/14

[Video: Horny Antelope]
[Mon-El is out and about on the planet when he comes across a very unusual lifeform even for someone like him who has traveled extensively. It looks like the antelope of Earth, but there are five of them that appear conjoined with just an unreasonable amount of horns. He fills the frame of the broadcast with the creature as it has a snack.]

Are you all as disturbed by this as I am? Maybe this is what ate all the people who were here.

[Action: Fairgrounds]
[The place may be a little creepy, but what’s not to love about trying out the different rides? He gives everything a try but the roller coaster is his favorite. You can see him enjoying himself on that until it almost inevitably gets stuck. Instead of waiting for it to start working again he just hops down from really high in the air and lands on his feet like it was nothing.

He’s also sampling all the fair foods and occasionally tucking some away for Kara. Is it sad or awesome to see someone double fisting a corn dog and a funnel cake? You might get a somewhat muffled greeting if he sees you while he’s trying to swallow. Just classy prince stuff here.]

[Wildcard]
[This can be anywhere on the planet, the Goldstone where he lives, the Space Bar where he bartends, or anywhere else on the Iskaulit!]

krammbunctious

[Video opens to a dark screen as Kramm's face is right up in it as he tries to secure the device. After a moment he backs up enough for the screen to focus on his scaly face, a little touch of red as his forked tongue sticks out in concentration, his blue eyes screwed up as well. Once he seems happy enough with the arrangement, however, he beams with excitement and settles back to smile and wave congenially at the camera.]

Uh, hi! Hello! Kramm here, I'm new. Not, uh, used to this sort of ... thing. I think I'm reaching everyone but let's be honest, I have no idea. [He shrugs his broad shoulders. He's dressed in simple leathers, his green scalemail armor draped over the chair behind him.]

Anyway, just thought I'd give a little formal greeting. Who's been down to the planet yet? What's your favorite place? I really liked the rides until I got stuck on one for a few hours, but ... I'll probably go back tomorrow.

[There's a long awkward pause as he waits for responses, wondering if it's even gone out to anyone. He hums a little tune and taps his clawed fingers on his knees for the moment.]

Who: Blue Fish crew and any visitors!
Broadcast: I guess if you wanna
Action: on the Blue Fish!
When: All month!

[ Sup Blue Fish? It's mingle time~ Don't get yourself sunburned. Or freezerburned. ]

mrfancyhat

Who: Chuuya Nakahara
Broadcast: Video
Action: Twin Roses
When: Today

[On screen is an overheated red head. He would usually be dressed in layers and a hat, but is without hat and down to single layers of clothing. Thankfully he is back in the comfort of his own ship, and taking the time to relax and cool down.]

Philias. A planet that is less of a planet, and more like an actual living hell.

I don't know why I thought Philias would be a good idea, but it... isn't. Not in the least. I'd do anything if it meant never getting back on a planet like that ever again. I'm not kidding - surely someone out there has done something wild, especially for ratings. I'd even go back to the planet that hated hearing people swear.

[He lights a cigarette before he continues-]

What kind of crazy stuff have you done for ratings? Because I'd probably do it over visiting Philias.

Who: Ulaz and you!
Broadcast: Video Fleetwide
Action: SS Caprine
When: 1/20

[As if waking up on a strange ship alone wasn't enough when Ulaz knew he shouldn't be there, now he was on yet another ship. This really was not funny. His attempts to try and get information through hacking had been poor at best and he was no closer to figuring what had happened.

He had learned one thing though; he did not like confetti. It was not amusing in the least.

He'd been pretty much silent so far - if being a Blade had taught him nothing else, it was how to make as little noise as possible. But now he doesn't really have a choice]

Can someone explain what is going on here? First I was on one ship and now another, neither of them where I should be. This must be a joke.

[And why does he say that? Hmm...]

lord_wizard

Who: Goldstone crew and visitors!
Broadcast: As desired
Action: The Goldstone
When: Month of January

It's been a quiet, relaxing month for the Goldstone, which has both an upgraded lounge and a returned crew member. The fleet soon leaves Selvin-9 and its strange snow behind and starts to drift.

Fingers crossed for an easy journey?

spacebro

Who: Mon-El, Sokka, and YOU!
Broadcast: OPEN!
Action: Bar in Berrivalia on Selvin-9
When: Now!

[The feed comes on to reveal Mon-El’s face in the foreground as Sokka sits next to him ordering a drink from a bartender, seemingly unaware of his friend’s broadcast.]

Hello, fleet! This is my first official outing as a wingman, and I’m going to need your help. We need to find this handsome, water tribe captain a mate! [He says as he puts his arm around Sokka’s shoulders and brings him into the frame.]

[Sokka was reaching out for his beer, looking forward to a relaxing night out with his friend. Then, suddenly he was pulled away from his drink and brought in front of the feed. It takes him a few moments for realisation of what was actually happening to hit him. He blinks, then turns, wide eyed to stare at Mon-El.]

Wait. What. We're doing this now?. Like...right now?

[Mon-El shrugs him off.] Okay, ladies—or gentlemen maybe—in addition to be newly older and buffer Sokka can eat concerning amounts of meat in a single sitting, wield a sword, and recite poetry. [He drops his voice as if to speak directly to Sokka, but it’s still audible.] I added that last one to make you sound more romantic.

[This was not happening. This couldn't actually be happening to him. He had to be imagining it. He stares at the screen, giving a half-robotic wave of his hand, probably staring off into space a little bit.]

Wow. No one's ever managed to sum me up in so few words before. Gee. Thanks, buddy. [He lowers his voice to a gentle hiss, waving a hand at the screen.] You know you could have warned me, Dude. This is kinda weird. People are gonna think I'm weird. [He is weird]

You’re not weird. [Facing the screen again and sounding sincere.] He’s not weird. Blame any weird on me. Honestly, Sokka is a great guy and a good friend. I can’t tell you everything good about him because there’s a lot and I’m still learning about it, but part of the fun is finding those things out about each other. So no more spoilers. I really think anyone would be lucky to be with him or I wouldn’t be doing this.

So, what do you say? Does anyone want to meet Sokka?

[This is still weird and he's still not completely convinced he wants it to go this way. Or if he's even dealt with all the baggage that comes with moving on in the first place. But Mon-El's done it now, so he's going to have to let it roll the way it is. He lets out an awkward laugh]

Aww. That was almost sweet. You are good at this. [He offers an awkward smile to the screen.] I was kind of planning to do this like a regular person, but I'm not about to spoil his...efforts here. So I'm gonna go sit in that corner with my beer and hope the wall eat me alive, cool? Cool. [He's gonna...fingerguns at you all and try to slide off screen.]

(OOC: Sokka is blue. Mon-El is red. Both boys will reply to responses separately.)

youdontneedapictureofme

Who: Maggie Rhee and YOU
Broadcast: video!
Action: Aboard the S.S. Blameless
When: Now!

[It had taken Maggie the short time aboard the Marsiva to collect herself. She hadn't even messaged anyone she remembered until now. It had been a strange transition waking up aboard the strange yet familiar ship, only to realize this had been home once too. Maggie had struggled back home, but now she felt her grief settling into a cold anger. She could channel that into something productive if she was to be stuck here in the fleet again.

Finally addressing the fleet, Maggie's features look calm, compared to the confusion of most arrivals.]

I'm assuming this place hasn't changed any? New arrival gets sent to their new ship from the Marsiva and all that. Though I'm curious what the Atroma find so fascinating about me this time around.

[She had become a leader, a force of nature in human flesh. She might still grieve her losses and feel hesitant to reach out to a new crew but she would help them get by the same as she'd done when she'd been on the Goldstone.]

Private - Carl Grimes

[Maggie has her hands folded under her chin, trying to think of what to even say to Carl. She could start with questions - how long was she gone? When had Enid left? She had absolutely skimmed their ship's rosters for them, not seeing Enid's name listed anywhere. She no longer saw Rick or Daryl's names either which meant Carl had been here alone.]

Are you on the Red Fish right now? I want to see you.

[If only to give him a hug and maybe make sure he'd been taking acceptable care of his eye and doing his physical therapy. Rick and Michonne weren't here to take care of him so it fell to her, just as it would if their roles as parents were reversed.]

Action;

[Upon arriving, Maggie deftly brushes the confetti out of her hair and ignores the Atroma's usual pomp and circumstance. She had half a mind to make her way to her new lab, but instead she takes her time exploring with her celebratory chocolate goo in hand. She had never been on the Blameless before now.]

Hello?

[Say hello to your new crewmate, Blameless?]

mikangirl

Who: Nami and you
Broadcast: Yep
Action: Bloodsport / Space Bar, Iskaulit
When: Now-ish

[Nami sleeps in an hour past the start of her shift at the Space Bar because the Atroma have always had such excellent timing. When she finally blinks awake, all icy sweat and teary-eyed, she spends a good few minutes slowly convincing herself it was just a bad dream, not actual, y'know, memories, which is a pretense that lasts all the way until she sits up and catches sight of herself in the mirror.

Welp.

There's no definites, on either side. That's something to think about. She checks the time and date on her comm, realises she's only lost an extra half day, and pings the bar staff on duty to let them know she's running late. She can have her depressing existential crisis later. Runs through the shower and skids out into the cargo bay with her hair still damp and her backpack over her shoulder and--

And--????

There's a giant thing staggering around in here with yellow feathers sticking out awkwardly from the most godawful wrapping paper she's ever seen--]

[Indignant Video]

Hey! [This here's a redhead with a lot more hair this morning, looking pissed.] Who the hell left the giant bird in our cargo bay? You can't just wrap a living creature in that much--

KWAAA!?

[She breaks off, startled, to glance over her shoulder at the crackling sound and sudden rumbling of something heading this way. ~~It's a wildebeest herd~~ And then has just enough time for a shriek before the comm goes flying , which means maybe all you get after that is a blur of yellow feathers and pink flamingo wrapping paper that's on fire (who giftwrapped the electric bird seriously) and a whole lot of joyful bird sounds who just ran over his favourite navigator sort of accidentally, but that's Biri for you. JFC, bird.

Muffled and in the distance, after a few moments--]

...never mind. I'm gonna be later.

[She recognises him now the wrapping paper has kind of burnt to ash, that's for sure. Ow.]

-------

[She will eventually get to the Space Bar with all due apologies, so you can catch up with her there. Or order a drink. She's in a better mood than when she woke up, at least. Giant idiot birds will do that to you. Even if they singe your hair a little at the same time.]
