Who: Bloodsport Crew, ASSEMBLE.
Broadcast: Maybe??
Action: The ship (or on a station I'm not picky)
When: After all that Marsiva nonsense

[GOOD MORNING, EVERYONE. instead of waking up in the cold, super-sterilized rooms of the Marsiva, you come to back in your very own room on the Bloodsport! some of you have never met each other, and a few of you have never even stepped foot on the ship before... but it's never too late to explore and greet your neighbors!

and in case anyone was wondering, yes, there are still a dozen fishbowls scattered around the ship. the glowing fish inside them seem perfectly fine. you may all rest easy, or wonder why the hell there are so many fish on this ship in the first place.]

ROLL CALL - totes open

[birdsbirdsbirds]

[aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhokay. this is fine. everything is totally, completely fine. which is why a (maybe familiar) voice comes on over the crew broadcast, shortly after everyone starts waking up and moving around. he sounds a little bit skeptical, but otherwise fairly calm and collected.]

All right, well. This is your captain speaking. Welcome back, if that means anything to you. Initial analysis says that the ship is running normally again, and I can't find anything else immediately urgent to worry about--so I'd like to check in with you all individually, at your earliest convenience.

I will be in the kitchen, eating this entire bag of chocolates. Bring yours if you don't want them.

[and, true to his word, Robin can be found sitting at the kitchen table and eating his entire bag of chocolate candies from the gift basket. he's simultaneously messing around with his personal communicator, picking at those new files that have been uploaded onto the network. he seems pretty absorbed, but he did just ask everyone to come say hello.]

boops . . .

[versusnurture]

[Go away Abigail you don't even go here but does she care? Very unlikely.]

[She happens to pop by for a visit right when the announcement starts oozing out of the speakers, and it makes her think: given that this is the first time they are really interacting in person (not on the network or in their respective brainspace), maybe . . . a gift is in order.]

[So she hops back in the shuttle, fetches her bag of chocolates from her ship, and returns to the Bloodsport slightly out of breath, jogging to the kitchen to dump the little bag in front of Robin and hop up to sit on the edge of the table.]

Hi.

[birdsbirdsbirds]

[Robin is almost startled by the bag being dropped--and has a somewhat familiar wide-eyed expression on his face as Abigail has herself a seat on the table.]

... Hi. Is this seriously the first thing you're doing this morning, or are you secretly a member of my crew?

Action

[lostthebet]

[Cayde needed to take a walk through and learn this ship, and what better excuse than to unload the foodstuffs he wasn't going to be able to take advantage of anyway? He arrives in the Kitchen with his whole basket - minus anything that wasn't edible - and sets it on the table.]

Howdy there, Cap'! Cayde-6, reporting for duty. [He sets his basket on the table and scootches it towards Robin.]

Action

[birdsbirdsbirds]

[Robin finally glances up from his communicator, only to look kind of surprised--first at Cayde, and then at the basket. and then back at Cayde.]

Oy. [he points at him!] Royal robot assassin guy!

[pompous_today]

[Simon had been hoping he was just missing them... but they were back on the ship, and there was still no sign of Jinx or Riku. So that probably meant the worst- they'd both been sent off.

Robin was probably aware of this, as well, but he'd said he wanted to check in, so there Simon was.]

... well, you did say you'd be eating the whole bag.

[birdsbirdsbirds]

[Robin looks up from his communicator, and responds around the chocolate that's already in his mouth.]

I wouldn't kid about chocolate. S'not even a protein base...

[a-ah, give him a second to swallow his food. he sets his communicator down flat, but doesn't get up out of his chair.]

So? How's it going, doc?

[rubbernecking]

[ He's up early, not because of the announcement, but because he'd opened his eyes to another change in scenery and no forthcoming explanation except a wicker basket full of goodies and the impression that this might become a thing. Because he got sick of staring at the ceiling of his bunk (after demolishing everything edible in his basket, as Luffy does), thinking about--

Stuff.

So he decided to go for a stroll, which is another way of saying he got lost in the unfamiliar confines of a ship he doesn't know, dressed in the standard issue overalls with the top half peeled down and straps tied around his waist like a makeshift belt, leaving a t-shirt, his straw hat, and a loop of heavy carved stone beads in shades of deep purple and dark red.

What brings him at last to the kitchen is the voice on the intercom, a pouch of seeds occupying a pocket and his hand raised in greeting, his smile huge and eyes squeezed shut for as long as it lasts. ]

Yo! [ He veritably chirps. ] You the guy I heard earlier? Is this yours? [ He's heard enough about the ships to come to the conclusion that this is where he is, now. If Luffy sounds a little apologetic, it's because he's woken up on board someone's ship without really asking permission, and he doesn't want to give the impression he's invading.

Pirate habits. ]

[birdsbirdsbirds]

Hm?

[he looks up from his communicator, eyebrows raising a little as he takes in the appearance of this friendly-seeming stranger. it's not so much that they're weird-looking (the straw hat is an odd choice, but Robin himself is wearing well-fitted leather gloves with what's otherwise a boring t-shirt and pants, so he can't really talk), it's the polite enthusiasm that takes him by surprise.

because he, personally, feels miserable. he's had his head wandered through, his ship altered, and half his crew has been sent home. he only sent that message over the comms as tactical damage control, not because he wanted to talk to anyone.

so he's... ready to plot and strategize and puzzle through his situation, not be happy. his smile comes off a little skeptical, even though he puts down his communicator and directs all his attention properly on the newcomer.]

Well, in as much as any of these ships can belong to someone, yeah. [he at least manages a little wave in return.] Robin Redbreast, at your service.

Action

[bb_wolf]

[Bigby shuffles into the kitchen without an offering of chocolate. His basket is his business.]

Captain, huh?

[mikangirl]

I'm keeping my chocolate.

[Yeah, this is pretty much how she announces herself when she sails into the kitchen. Or stomps in, because the Atroma's special gift has kind of pissed her right off. Well, whatever. She holds up another little package instead.]

You can have my dried fruit, though, if you want it. I prefer mine fresh.

action;

[enshields]

[Robin gets a (somewhat stiff) nod as Steve enters the kitchen, ostensibly to make himself a cup of coffee.]

Captain.

[This may not be a military establishment, and he may be no great stickler for protocol, but it's just good manners.]

Moment of your time?

pretend this was on time

[redactions]

[ He's not exactly looking for Robin, it's a little difficult to say "so I was in your head thanks to the Atroma" and take it from there. But there's a peace offering: some chips he got the last packet of from the waystation, and he's humming the song they both danced to. Loudly. ]

Action

[lostthebet]

[This is the first Cayde has been on this ship, actually, so he's strolling wherever he's allowed and getting a feel for the layout. Everything that'd been happening on the Marsiva had helped to keep him busy, though, so he's curious to see what he can do here to keep from going stir-crazy. The Tower was bad enough, and at least the Marsiva was large enough and filled with curious peoples; being sequestered on a small ship with a small crew is going to test his limits.]

Action

[pompous_today]

[Simon poked his head out of the infirmary and gave a wave when he heard someone unfamiliar passing by.]

Hello- are you one of my new crewmates?

[bb_wolf]

[Bigby is also brand new to the ship. Having claimed his bunk and taken over it, he's now wandering the ship, though he stops when he see Cayde, pausing and drawing back a little, looking at him.

He smells strange.]

Action - the doctor is in

[pompous_today]

[After his talk with Robin, Simon decided to explore the ship to see how much had changed. It seemed to be purely cosmetic, but it never hurt to be sure- and part of him kept hoping he'd run into Jinx or Riku. It wouldn't be the same without them.

But there were also new crewmates to meet, and he needed to get resettled, so people could find Simon anywhere around the ship, carrying his gift basket in one hand the whole time like he's half forgotten it's there, before finally settling in the infirmary.

The doctor was in.]

Action - Open

[mikangirl]

[You can catch Nami in one of two places. Either before she's stomped off to see Robin, which means she's in her quarters. Please mind your head if you walk in, she's in the process of throwing stuff. Who needs bright orange slippers. Seriously.

Plus also, the bubble wand is just insulting.

Either that, or she'll be on the bridge, poking through the computers and looking for certain forms that supposedly exist in here somewhere.]

[bb_wolf]

[Bigby finds her on the bridge, having followed what was ultimately just a pleasant scent of satsuma, ink and old paper. He watches her for a moment, nose twitching.]

You look pissed off.

[hitbyakar]

[ Hello, Bloodsport! You now have a hot mom aboard. She's doing something fairly predictable, here -- and that is staring at all the glowing fish. Why are there so many fish? Are they okay?

God, space is fucking weird. ]

[birdsbirdsbirds]

[space is pretty fucking weird. Robin fits right in.

he checks the ship roster all the time, and is actually looking down at his communicator when he turns the corner... he barely has time to think, "I should find this new person..." before he looks up and... sees... a complete stranger on his ship.]

Oh. [he stops, blinks.] That was easy.

[bb_wolf]

[Bigby moves very quietly... one moment, she's alone, the next, there's a small, scruffy man next to her.]

I'm trying to decide if they're edible. They can't be worse than the jellified crap they give us.

[pompous_today]

The fish were available as presents on a planet we visited. Robin and Jinx became quite fond of them.

Natasha, intruder alert, etc.

[tothefly]

[She's never seen the inside of the Bloodsport before, so how could she resist an invitation? Nat's even brought a housewarming gift, or something like that. A nice package of bacon-kelp for the crew. Yeah, they're still working on the name.]

[Package in hand, she makes her slow way towards the front of the ship until she meets someone, not making any secret about checking the ship out. Who wouldn't be curious, honestly?]

[birdsbirdsbirds]

[it's not a bad space, the Bloodsport. it's not exactly cozy, but it looks lived-in and decently organized. someone's filled the place with basic creature comforts (a couple more blankets, a few plants, stashes of snacks and dried foods, unpacked games on the kitchen table) when they definitely didn't have to.

and the fish. ...well, maybe someone just really liked the glowing fish.

Robin comes walking from the other direction, intending to head towards the engine room. he doesn't actually look surprised to see someone until he looks at her face, which catches him off-guard enough that he stops in his tracks.]

Oh... [where does he know her from?]
