Who goes there?
[After weeks of relative silence, our intrepid passengers finally travel within visual range of a blue planet. Marsiva's slow-and-steady course makes it clear that this is the Drift Fleet's next destination--but just as your ships come within scanning range and your computers begin to gather data, a fleet of quick little watchdog ships zip out of the planet's atmosphere, heading straight for you!
They do not swoop in for an attack, but hold their positions between you and the planet. They look close enough to cause some trouble, and any working Communications Officer can tell you that they have weapons locked on the Fleet in warning.
The tell-tale sound of an incoming hailing frequency chimes over your ship's alert system. Someone would like you to pick up the phone. Thanks to their augment, all passengers instinctively know that they'll be looking for the Captain or the Communications Officer of the ship--but no one says someone else can't pick it up first.
On the bridge, the hailing frequency can be viewed on screen, along with the attached subject: "Identify yourselves." The notification chime goes off every seven seconds. These ships don't look like they're going anywhere, but they don't want to be kept waiting, either.
What do you do? Will you accept the frequency?]
ooc → see the July Star System post for details about this event! there is no real rush in this post (we won't even be around to begin responding to it until Sunday afternoon), so take your time, feel free to tag each other in this post (maybe try to get your Comms officers off their asses), and there is no time too late to tag into this post. the element of urgency is all IC, and there is no OOC pressure at all.

and at least he outgrew his habit of being a cocky little shit at the worst times. ]
We're just passing through, like I said! It'd be great if we could stock up on some food and stuff if you'll let us, since we're running low. If you don't want us around, though, we can leave.

[and here his voice gets a little tense.]
--And explain what a merchant-class Nunnilis ship is doing in your ranks, immediately.
no subject
And what d'you mean by Nunnuilis...? [ he said it was a merchant-class, but they don't have anything like... wait, the ship they found was said to be a merchant ship in the records-- ] --Wait. You mean the Iskaulit?
[ his voice almost sounds hopeful. did they find who it belonged to? or even someone who could point them in the right direction? ]
no subject
And the fact that you don't know this fact isn't helping your case, Captain.
