Twelfth Cycle - Season Premier!
[Everything is quite dark as the passengers regain consciousness, with little lights and panels on the walls just now beginning to wink to life. It seems as though everyone and their new homes are rising from slumber together. Even the air is sleepy, and it tastes stale--it must have been a long time since it's been anywhere other than recycled endlessly through this space.
And for a few minutes, the only sounds that aren't coming from the passengers themselves is the omnipresent hum of electrical and mechanical parts surrounding them on every side, and the occasional scratch of vermin-feet in the walls. Then, regardless of where each passenger wakes in their ship, a short musical tune and an exuberant female voice crackles to life over speaker panels in every room.]
--Good morning, honored passengers! My name is Diamond, and on behalf of Atroma and our entire audience, congratulations on being selected to participate in the twelfth cycle of Drift Fleet! We are all eager to get to know you, and I just know you must all be eager to get started, so let's get right to it!
[And with that, whoever happens to be on the bridge of their ship at the time will be treated to watching the solid panels slide away from the windows, revealing infinite black and uncountable stars... and whether or not they've ever been capable of comprehending the concept before, they immediately recognize outer space.]
In a few minutes, the HS Marsiva will come into view through the windows to my left. Please familiarize yourself with her presence.
For more information on your new roles, and of the Drift Fleet itself, please refer to the helpful information files already uploaded to the network. And from here on out, it shall be up to you to refer new cremates to these information files and to make sure that their stays on your crews are pleasant and rewarding!
...Also--speaking of your new responsibilities as crewmembers--I expect captain forms to be filled out and submitted by the end of the week.
[The smile practically drips from her voice at that last point, and there's a little pause before she continues]
And finally-- we won't be approaching our first system for a few days yet, so you are all encouraged to get to know each other and enjoy the ride in the meantime.
Welcome to Drift Fleet, and remember... the worlds are watching!
[and the voice cuts out, but the lines are still open. the network is live and listening.]
((ooc: the Fleet is now live! dive in and tag around! it's a good idea to put whether or not your thread is open to the network, and what ship you're on, in the subject of your reply. to see who is on which crew, please refer to this sheet! have fun!))

SENRI I HAVE NO ICON APPROPRIATE FOR THSI TAG ALKHDGLAHD
That sounds... unsafe.
LAUGHS I FEEL ACCOMPLISHED
no subject
T-There must be a doctor somewhere. Perhaps they could not only remove it, but repair the would afterwards
no subject
no subject
And because it is intersecting with the brain, our body has an aversion to disturbing it?
no subject
no subject
Very well. It will be good for everyone to know, at least.
no subject
no subject
It might simply be sensitive...
no subject
[Not taking her hand away. In fact she's picking at the augment a bit. Not so it'd rip skin, but it's not comfortable.]
no subject
Yes, like that.
no subject
Well, I suppose that might be because I'm a stranger you don't know well touching a rather vulnerable part of you. But I wonder if it isn't partly from that thing.
no subject
Perhaps, partly. But such a feeling dissipates after a certain amount of time. There was a certain feeling of... fear that kept building in my stomach. That seemed abnormal.
no subject
That sounds abnormal, especially since I wasn't doing much more than poking at it. Suspicious, isn't it?
no subject
You're right. [she shivers slightly] It's unnerving to think that someone would perform such a surgical prodceedure on us without us being aware of it. [it begs the unasked question of what else were they able to do]
no subject
You're right! It's unnerving, and it'll be hard to discern exactly how far the affects extend since these things are implanted in our brains. I've never even imagined technology as advanced as this. What about you?
no subject
no subject
no subject
Does your home have ships like this one?
no subject
no subject
Mm. [....] You seem really excited about learning so much.
no subject
Of course I am. If nothing else, we have the opportunity to learn a lot here.
no subject
I think that's a very wise way to look at new situations. [ah... she looks slightly sheepish for a moment] I'm sure you don't need someone younger than you telling you that but... it's true.
