Who: Orion and YOU
Broadcast: Voice
Action: Iskaulit
When: 9/25

[there's a shift and some crackling, as he's adjusting his position. it sounds like he's moving some things around.]

... Two questions.

One, who would be the best person to go to about setting up a larger infirmary on the Iskaulit? After what happened, I think it might be better to have some larger area set up. Especially if something ends up happening and we need to quarantine some kind of ailment.

... And two. [and then he pauses, because he doesn't know how to ask the second one. it's not like it's the first time someone's left, but..]

Does anyone know what happens to the people who leave? A theory, a guess... Anything? Going home is supposed to be the prize for winning at the end of the show, isn't it?



[ADDED LATER:]

... Just an added note, if anyone has any skill in blacksmithing, I could use your help.

[feathery]

Yeah, that's what I told him. And also why I figured a preliminary warning was in order. Most people aren't too into the more fucked up possibilities.

[proudlywehailed]

I've experienced worse, don't worry. And I think you're probably right.

[feathery]

Yeah, well, being through worse doesn't make it anymore fun to hear.

[He half mutters it. There's a beat and then he adds, curious,] You think that's what they do with us for real.

[proudlywehailed]

... I think it's likely. The Marsiva hasn't been explored, and there's plenty of space on it to hide people, provided they don't have some off-site planet they teleport everybody to.

[feathery]

Hm, yeah. [He should probably sound more worried about this.]

Makes you wonder how they decide who to pull off the show, if that's the real method behind their godawful fuckin' madness. I mean is it a ratings thing? Be nice to know how we got here in the first place, too; what kind of contraption they used to pick us out of the ether. Hell, I'd settle for knowing if it's RNG.
