A cry for help

[thespaceopera]

[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!

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.

[She snorts.]

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

Got it.

[A beat]

...What's considered morning in space again? [It's all really easy to lose track of when you don't sleep okay]

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

[How else would they measure time?]
