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!

[Just leave the video game behind, Ken.]

By the way, which name should I call you?

[empireofmymind]

[ Whoops. Good point. ] Ah, Ken is fine.

[ Nightingale is doing a lot for him, isn't she...For him. She had other things she could have done today and she chose to help him.

This is the sort of thing that tends to make Ken happy. In a self-conscious way. ] You're being very considerate.

[experiencepoints]

[She shrugs.]

This is my second time around the interdimensional prison thing. I might as well put that experience to good use. And I'm not going to leave a kid to fend for yourself.

[empireofmymind]

[ Even being treated like a kid is nice, since it's happened so rarely. But that is less important than the first thing Nightingale said. ] This has happened before?

[experiencepoints]

Mm... Not this, exactly. This place is a lot more benign than the last one I was at, so... Don't worry about it too much.

[she tries to give him a comforting smile, but it's not the most genuine.]

[empireofmymind]

[ That is worrisome, but - Ken can see how it might also be a tangent, as whatever the other incident was doesn't seem to have a bearing on their current situation. But. Has this "Fleet" made a point of bringing people who have experience with other worlds already? ] I see.

[ He's not going to argue with someone who's doing things for him. But he will mull things over in a completely transparent silence. ]
