A cry for help

[a distress call has been tracked across the void, finally leading back to the source. a hulking crippled ship, teeming with hostile alien life, now lies before you.

what do you do? do you dive in or hang back? are you here to learn, play, build, or observe?

however you choose to proceed, your audience is out there somewhere, watching.]



ooc: here is a good ol' themed mingle to get you all started! and don't feel limited by the prompts and what they describe--they're just there as idea-starters, so feel free to go anywhere and do anything.

have fun!

[VANQUISH]

[Sheena addresses everyone from the bridge.]

Hey, everyone. Just wanted to check in.

There's something broadcasting from inside that ship, and... you know, it's dangerous. It's some kind of distress signal. If we go down to check it out, I want us to go as one unit. If you know someone on another ship with weapons and armor, that's good too. I'm gonna ask my friends from home to come along, so um... the more the merrier, I guess.

If you get stuck in a bad place, run back to the ship. There's no harm in ducking out if you can't handle whatever's down there.

[LLOYD, KANEIS, COLETTE]

[Time to hit up the communicators.]

I want to see if anyone needs help on that weird ship, but my crew doesn't have much in the way of weapons or armor. Are you planning to go down there?

I wasn't planning on going to the creepy ship, no, but somehow I get the distinct sense I'm gonna be dragged along anyway.

[The tsundere is strong in this one]

There could be someone down there! I mean, that's a distress signal. Isn't it?

[He sighs. See. This is exactly what he means]

Yeah, it is. But I got a bad feeling about this- I mean those ships that were following us? Stopped following us when we got to this area. That can't be good.

I noticed that, but... I think it's important to find out what happened to these people. If anyone can help them, it's people with weapons and magic.

[I'm sorry your girlfriend is a shounen.]

We'll just have to be careful. No one goes off alone, and everyone needs to be armed somehow. If there's any sign of getting in over our heads, we run. No buts about it.

[Sheena should know this face. It's the face he gets where part of him wants to say no because he just knows this is going to be nothing but trouble, buuut he's got too much morality in him to actually disagree with what she's saying. She has a point. These were possibly civilians that were in danger, considering the ship, and no one would come to their aid if the other ships were any indication.]

[Ugh. This is what he gets for rejecting the life plan the church had for him, isn't it? He could have lived in the lap of luxury with an arranged marriage, not checking out creepy ships out in the middle of nowhere even by space standards. Sure, he would've absolutely hated his life, but still. Sigh.]


...I guess if you need a healer or a mage I could tag along.

[Not that I care or anything, Sheenuts.]

[She does know that face, but she doesn't relent. Her mouth forms a line. They can't just walk away when this might bite them in the ass later. Someone could need help! Or, whatever happened to the people here... could happen to them. They just don't know, and the only way to know is to go down there.

But... then Kaneis softens just that little bit and gives in, and her expression lightens in return.]


Yeah, well-- I know I'd feel a lot better with you watching my back.

[Even if he's teasing her the whole way. They're a team.

SHE LOVES YOU TOO, ZELOSER.]

[Whatever if they get eaten he's going to scream I TOLD YOU SO, mark his words]

Well of course you would! I'm a real handy guy to have around!

Just tell me when and where.

Anyway, it looks like we're all going down. Let's aim for tomorrow morning. I need to make some preparations.

Got it.

0800? There's still a clock... I think.

[How else would they measure time?]

[personal profile] geonomy 2015-06-15 03:11 am (UTC)(link)
[Much as he'd like to go onto the other ship, he does have one concern in mind.]

Captain, do you want me to stay with the ship? You know, in case something goes wrong in there, or if we need to get out of there quick.
fujibayashi: (► i can always see them coming)

[personal profile] fujibayashi 2015-06-15 05:56 am (UTC)(link)
That's... actually a really good idea. You're a civilian, right? If you've never fought a real battle, I definitely want you to stay back.
geonomy: (☆ like a moonbeam across my face)

[personal profile] geonomy 2015-06-15 06:04 am (UTC)(link)
About the only real battling I've done was fighting off bullies in high school, and that's pretty much nothing compared to what you guys do. I've got a friend teaching me more about defending myself, and he's really stellar! But I still got a long way to go.
fujibayashi: (► you had me at hello)

[personal profile] fujibayashi 2015-06-15 06:15 am (UTC)(link)
Bullies? Oh... I'm sorry to hear that. It's great that you're learning-- but until we know exactly what we're facing, you should stick to training.

[Mama knows best.]

I've fought everything from armies to angels to... giant haunted skeletons, so best to let me go in front.
geonomy: (☆ makes me feel alive)

[personal profile] geonomy 2015-06-15 06:19 am (UTC)(link)
[It's not like he got bullied much, but, well... You mess with his best friend, you mess with him, too.

... Giant haunted skeletons, though.]


Wow, uh. Yeah. If you can take down giant haunted... skeletons? You can definitely take on anything!

[And a deep breath, and - ]

YOU'RE SHEENA FUJIBAYASHI AND YOU'RE FINE!!

[WHOA SUDDENLY VOLUME. She forgot Clay does this. Which is... remarkable, because he probably practices frequently. She laughs, though, and that eases some of the tension. Then she yells back because she can.]

I'M SHEENA FUJIBAYASHI AND I'M FINE!

[He laughs in return, a big grin on his face as he claps his hands, because yes, that's exactly what he wants to see! Not that they shouldn't take this seriously, but too much tension is never good for anyone.]

Yeah, that's it! You'll be just fine in there! [He gives a two-fingered salute, fingers at his visor, and a wink.] You've got the full faith of your pilot behind you.
fujibayashi: (► cheers)

[personal profile] fujibayashi 2015-06-29 09:00 am (UTC)(link)
[He's great and she's so happy he's on her ship.]

And I've got full faith in my crew, so there you go. We'll all be fine.
selfless: (Protest ♥ Don't Give Up)

Poorly encrypted to Sheena :D

[personal profile] selfless 2015-06-22 12:31 am (UTC)(link)
Yes! I mean, I wanted to go down there... [it sounds like Sheena is already drawing the same conclusions that she is, someone may need their help in there]

And I'd feel a lot better if we all went together. [friendship... is magic.... also I'm sorry this tag is a million years late]
fujibayashi: (► then you opened up your mouth)

[personal profile] fujibayashi 2015-06-22 03:17 am (UTC)(link)
Then it's settled. We'll all go down there together.

[She brightens.]

Thanks, Colette. For a second there, I thought I was the only one who wanted to go.

[she smiles, and shakes her head]

I'm sure Lloyd will want to go! And, if it was to help them... I think Kaneis might want to go too.

[she doesn't want to speak for him in a definitive way, but... she's guessing]

And with all of us searching together, it won't be scary. Maybe it will be like exploring new places back home!
fujibayashi: (► what about no don't you get)

[personal profile] fujibayashi 2015-06-26 06:36 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, even if Kaneis acts like he doesn't care.

[They all know the truth.]

Here's to hoping there's less death traps than in the temples...
idealistic: (【MANGA】ONWARD;)

hi sup guess who just noticed this also encrypted

[personal profile] idealistic 2015-06-24 02:14 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm definitely heading down there! I was actually planning on heading down there as soon as I could. [ and you better believe he's dragging Kaneis along. there's no way he's ignoring that distress signal, nope. ]

If you need any backup, just say the word!
fujibayashi: (smile ► don't know why you wanna)

[personal profile] fujibayashi 2015-06-26 06:30 am (UTC)(link)
[She has the most awesome friends.]

Sounds good! Then we can go as a group.
