Who: SS Bishop Crew + You!
Broadcast: Bishop PA-system!
Action: SS Bishop!
When: 7/6-7/20!

[KSSHHKK--]

Attention SS Bishop crew, this is your captain, Hiro Hamada, speaking. I'd like to take a moment to thank everybody for doing such a great job at their stations; we couldn't run the ship without you. Also, Adra, if you can take the time to figure out how to fix my brother's elephant ears, that would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Congrats on becoming captain!

I hope the thirty minutes you have left alive to enjoy it are everything you always hoped they'd be.

I'm an only child.

[hymnals]

I don't think I'm the one to talk to about ears of unusual size, Hiro.

voice

[everydayhero]

It's not unusual for elves!

[hymnals]

Not for my particular breed of elf, true. But your brother's ears are dainty and unobtrusive by comparison.

[arcanepower]

[That... is so surprising that it actually gets Belth to crack up. He bursts into gigglefits that are so intense he ends up falling off his beanbag.

RIP]

action;

[everydayhero]

[hiro is going to go ahead and hunt you down, belth, because he wants to see you laughing like that. he stops in the doorway of the library, and just kind of stands there with his hands on his hips.]

You gonna make it?

[arcanepower]

[Hiro finds him in a robed lump, hood over his head and covered in books. Jesus Christ, what happened here???]

I fell onto the shelf...

Action

[preformthisneigh]

[Cheese is sitting happily in his pilot's chair, doing his actual job of flying this damn ship. The controls are a little larger and hoof-friendly, and as such, he does't seem to be having any difficulty. Or he might just be waiting to spin the ship into a planet and KILL YOU ALL, who knows. His rubber chicken sits on the dash, staring into the void with lifeless rubber eyes.

But that was...quite an announcement, and Cheese tilts his head a little in consideration.]

At least he'd have an impressive self-cooling system.

[everydayhero]

[hiro hears that; the PA system is on the bridge. he looks over to him and grins, crossing his arms.]

You'd think, but he's still kind of a hothead. [only when it comes to obnoxious little brothers, hiro.]

You flying this thing alright?

[preformthisneigh]

[There's a comedic tsking and a slow headshake from Cheese. ] There's just no helping some. Such a tragic, tragic case. He's probably mad that he never grew into them.

[Surprisingly, even to himself, he is. Not even Paradisa prepared him for this. Sure, he'd seen the TARDIS, but he'd never flown it. ]

Yeah, I'm guessing a whole lot of that is thanks to the chip in my head, but this isn't all that bad. I promise not to crash us into any planets.

[ino]

[ IN ... THE DOORWAY. SILENTLY. Or she was, until she lets out an impressed whistle after the broadcast is over ]

I hope you've got a good hiding place in mind or your reign as captain is going to be very short lived.

[ She's grinning, though ]

[everydayhero]

[oh hey you're here i didn't... realize...]

... Maybe the best hiding place is behind the prettiest girl in the fleet?

[can you say no to this face]

[ino]

[ You schmooze. She comes over to ruffle his hair, though ]

Very charming. Nice delivery.

visitor » action! ota

[limitstorm]

[ see now he was just visiting because he needs to check up on hiro and hiro's been insisting on meeting his brother and all that jazz, so riku feels obligated to hop onto the bishop. besides, he needs to see first-hand that he's not, you know, working himself to death. do as i say, not as i do.

besides, he's got some good news to share. good news that's only applicable if an adultish figure is around. either way, you might find a teenager with a rod of wood that's as tall as he is taking a few steps onto the bishop. hiro did say he was on the ship... ]

[ishere]

[ is tadashi an adult'ish figure? he definitely considers himself an adult'ish figure. he'll greet riku with a little wave regardless, pausing on his way to wherever the hell he was going and wiping at some grease on his hands with a rag as he does. ]

Hey. Looking for someone?

[ with nothing but entirely genuine friendliness. ]

[limitstorm]

[ he jumps a little--he'd been so focused on hiro's aura that he couldn't even hell tadashi was close. oops. ]

Yeah, I'm looking for Hiro. I was talking to him a few minutes ago, trying to weasel more sparring outta me.

action, ota to shipmates and visitors!

[ishere]

[ at some point, tadashi will probably just be found sleeping in the kitchen. in his defense, it's entirely not on purpose - he'd meant to grab a snack before heading to bed and apparently the suspense of the protein material heating in the microwave was just altogether too much for him. like many twenty-one year old dudes, he can apparently fall asleep without problem just about anywhere, which is exactly why he's napping upright in his seat near the microwave.

he hasn't worked himself to exhaustion or anything: bro's just sleepy and hungry, and apparently addressed the wrong one first. ]

[preformthisneigh]

[Cheese isn't a big fan of the food available on the ship. He's used to freshly picked deliciousness, and the little cubes of flavoured protein is not a good friend to a herbivorous diet. Still, a stallion has to eat, so he comes into the kitchen to see if he can make the stuff in any way palatable.

Instead he finds Tadashi. Humans are strange creatures, and he's not entirely sure if the sleeping upright thing is normal or if it means there's something desperately wrong with him. For a moment, he's torn between going about his business and doing the actual Right Thing and checking up on the sleeping human. Conscience wins out, and he carefully pushes a nearby chair with his head, until it's beside Tadashi. He clambers onto it, and leans in close, prodding Tadashi's shoulder with a hoof and not-very-quietly-at-all whispering by his head. ]

Are you sleeping or unconscious? Snore once if you're okay.

[ishere]

[ and tadashi will just nearly jump out of his skin. ]

-- I wasn't asleep!

[ he blurts, even though he was definitely asleep, and he fixes cheese with a wide-eyed and startled look. okay, unless that pony had just teleported onto the chair next to him, maybe he had been dozing, and he rubs one eye with the heel of his palm before groaning a little to himself under his breath. whoops. ]

Um, yeah, hey - sorry about that.

[ YOU ARE.... REALLY A PONY DUDE... this is so weird. ]

[everydayhero]

[sharpie mustache?

[sharpie mustache.]

[ishere]

[ JOLTING AWAKE ]

Wh--

[ with half a shitty sharpie mustache... ]

Thanks for the vote of confidence, Finrod. It'll be just like leading my team back home.
