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!

[ weiss flinches at the sound of her voice, and apparently that's enough to make her fold wrong? because in the next moment she's clenching a fist and clearly attempting to reign her frustration in...

a few deep breaths later, she glances up at the other, a tight smile on her face. ]

Yes, quite fine, thank you. [ she makes a dismissive gesture towards all the mess. ] Don't worry about the paper; I've been told they return to normal by the next day.

[Leanne shakes her head, huffing out a laugh. Oh boy.]

I'm not that worried about the paper! [A pause.] Though I guess I didn't know it does that...

But, um, what do you need that much of it for anyway?

[multiglyphs]

[ weiss looks only mildly put out. ]

Paper airplanes, of course.

[ she's upset it isn't obvious..! though, to be fair to leanne — weiss is pretty sucky at it. ]

[survives]

Ohhh! Got it! [Oh, right, that makes sense!

...Though it still doesn't really explain the pile of paper.]

Is this the first time you're making them?

[SHE'S... trying]

[multiglyphs]

[ a faint flush adorns weiss' otherwise pale cheeks. which have also puffed a little in her huffiness. ]

Of course not. [ she's not a LOSER okay......!







....it's her second time. ]

[survives]

Oh. [Leanne looks away, definitely not hiding a smile there, no, what are you talking about

Maybe she's just really bad at making paper airplanes... Some people can never figure it out, right??

Yes, this must be it.]

Well, that's fine! It's okay if it takes you a while to make 'em, huh? I mean... I'm not that good at it either.

[multiglyphs]

[ L-LOOK YOU GOTTA FOLD IT JUST RIGHT OKAY......... ;3;

that gets weiss' attention though. a kindred spirit, perhaps?! ]

Oh? Were you never taught it before either?

sorry for the delay!

[survives]

No! [She laughs, shaking her head.] I guess nobody ever thought of teaching me when I was younger, you know?

I don't really know why. [Well, she does, but she's not saying that.] I guess it was the same for you?

no worries! though i apologize for my own delay...

[multiglyphs]

Mm, essentially. [ weiss makes a wry sound in the back of her throat, but she can't quite say why either. ]

I'd only been taught just recently by another passenger here.

[ a pause. ]

Would you like to learn?

and now i apologize again haha! sorry, on hiatus

[survives]

Seriously? [A pause and she nods, huffing out another laugh.]

Yeah, I... That'd be really great! [Another pause. No, no... It's not great.] It'd be so awesome! Thank you!
