At least there's no elevator music...

[At least two weeks have passed since the Drift Fleet passengers woke up on this strange wing of the Marsiva... Some new passengers have even joined the group instead of being Shuffled off to a fleet ship! The large monitor in the central room remains quiet for now, so how is everyone holding up?

Have you been relaxing? Enjoying the Earth media? If you can even remember them, how have Calibrations been treating you? Has anyone started getting a little stir-crazy?

Don't worry... This ship has no shortage of mysteries, and you'll be seeing a few more soon.]


ooc: here's another mingle for the current game event! players can start or continue threads here from any point during the event. the additional setting information is still being postponed due to sickly mods, but y'all are welcome to post additional topcomments for reactions and investigation once it's up!

Comments

[admirably]

[ Yes, definitely does not sound good. ]

What manner of grief is that?

[multiglyphs]

[ she wrinkles her nose. she isn't quite sure how to describe it, given she hasn't yet experience it herself but... ]

Memory-sharing, [ is what she ends up with. the simplest way she can think to put it. ]

Memory-sharing without consent.

[admirably]

[ Memory sharing is one thing, "without consent" is another. If other people were privy to his memories without his permission, his game could be up before it has even started. ]

...I see. I do believe "grief" was not an exaggeration, then.

[multiglyphs]

I suppose you'd call it an understatement.

[ she attempts a small, encouraging smile, though. ]

I wouldn't worry too much about it. It might not be as often as you might think. I've been here a few days now and have yet to come across anything like it.

[admirably]

Is that so? [ Well, maybe he could hope that new arrivals weren't affected, but he couldn't just rely on hope. He needed to fortify himself against this sort of intrusion. ]

Have you taken any measures to prevent it from happening?

[multiglyphs]

Not... exactly. [ she looks a bit ruffled by it, tbh. ] Hard to take preventive measures against something no one can really explain, after all.

[admirably]

No one knows why it's happening, then? Not even the captain of this vessel?

[multiglyphs]

[ who even IS the captain of this vessel tbh... ]

If you mean the people in charge, I wouldn't put it past them have done it all on purpose. They kidnapped us from our own worlds for entertainment, after all.

[admirably]

Fair enough. [ He wouldn't put anything past these Atroma people. ] I don't suppose they've acted at all concerned for our well-being?

[multiglyphs]

Oh, they've made an announcement or two with platitudes concerning the "inconvenience," but they don't seem to consider it a serious situation at all.
