[crackleCRACKLE... and whatever scraps of haunting, poignant music might have remained amongst the broadcasting signals breaks apart completely. and it is replaced by a jolly jingle of music that hasn't been heard in a while.

it is that nebulous time between the last planet's range and whatever might lie ahead, and Atroma can reach you again. aren't you glad? haven't you missed it?]


Oh, our hearts! [the woman's voice is overflowing with joy today, coming in crystal-clear.]

Our hearts, our hearts! Our poor, delicate hearts!

You've really outdone yourselves this time, dear passengers. Between the dramas that have unfurled upon the forest paths, to the heartfelt encounters this past week, you've had us all on the edge of our seats!

[cheering in the background. warm, cartoonish cheering. it's still odd and distant though, barely filtering through.]

I highly suggest that you all visit your local Personnel officers. They are there to comfort and guide you in these trying times. Everyone needs someone to lean on, a shoulder to cry on, don't they?

[she takes a deep, satisfied breath, shuffles some papers.]

As for the Shuffle this week... my, there was quite a problem with the signals this month, wasn't there? Let's not dwell on old news by covering everything we've missed, though-- people have come and gone, the Fleet continues to drift.

This week, however... one face has left our ranks and five have arrived to fill the gap! The SS First Breath is once more full of life, with Captain Drake proudly at the helm! And it looks like the SS Bloodsport has a new First Mate stepping up to help guide the crew. How very noble.

[she claps her hands together--or something else causes a sharp pop of sound.]

You are all doing wonderfully! Ratings are at an all-time high! And next week... there will be interviews, so make sure that you show up dressed in your best!

Keep up the good work. The worlds are watching!


ooc: everyone in the fleet will find that they'd gotten a significant boost to earnings this week... and anyone in various forms of emotional distress will find that they're earning much more for a few days. Atroma is proud of you all!

February's information will be up in the next day or so... because the mods are both sick and working slowly. in the meantime, the fleet is coasting through no-man's land, where there are only stations styled like January's within range.

Who: Hiro and EVERYONE
Broadcast: Fleetwide Video
Action: SS Bishop
When: 1/31


[The video starts in on Hiro, who is reclined as far as the console chair will go. His feet are likely somewhere they should not be, holding him in the position. The comm is on top of his knees, recording him playing with an ostrich bobblehead.

[After a moment, he grins at the comm, and begins his little speech.]


Good--[a quick glance at the console]--afternoon, space cadets. Engineer Hiro Hamada, reporting for duty on the SS Bishop.

Gotta say, I'm not exactly thrilled to be here, but hey. I don't get a choice, right?

[He takes in a deep breath, looking around the deck of the ship. He lets his cheeks puff up with the air, slowly deflating as his lungs empty.]

I hope the crew here doesn't mind some remodeling. This place could use some work.

Who: Robin!
Broadcast: Video!
Action: Not unless it gets weird!
When: About a day after his supposed murder.

[the feed crackles on to show Robin, looking very much alive and in a shirt that doesn't have a big hole in it, thank you. he's crouched somewhere on one of those Floot Loop stations, probably. he's got his back to one of those big LED displays, which means... unless you want to check every single bright, animated ad in every station within range, he's going to be kind of tricky to find.

he... waves, though he doesn't look like he's very happy to see you either, to be honest.]


Hello. I'm not dead, since I assume that rumor has spread far and wide by now.

And I would love to have a calm, rational conversation about all of this before someone tries to kill me again. What have I missed? Catch me up.

Who: Tourist Crew
Broadcast: If you'd like!
Action: TOURISTA
When: Whenever you want!

((catch-all post for the Tourists! do whatever you want whenever you want! have it your way!!))
ino: (Rage shake.)
[personal profile] ino
Who: Ino
Broadcast: Video
Action: If you're on the Three Twins
When: After Robin's "murder"

[ Even if you don't know Ino, it's pretty obvious that she's absolutely furious right now. Everything about the way she's sitting in her chair to the expression on her face screams rage. (There may or may not also be a large dent in the wall behind her. What? It's stress relief!)

But when she's got the communicator set in place and she speaks up to address the other people who might be watching, her voice is controlled enough. At first, anyways. ]


I can't believe I even have to make a transmission like this, but you know what? Apparently I do, because some people in this fleet can't keep their damn hands to themselves! So here goes!

Guess what we aren't going to be doing any more of in this fleet? [ She says, as though she's in charge of everyone. But that's just how she operates. ] Did you guess attempted murder? Great! Good job! You were right.

I know some of you probably have some seriously itchy fingers, but in case you forgot, being dead is generally a very PERMANENT situation! And in case you forgot, we are all in this shitty situation together! Creating drama like this is exactly what the people running this want!

You wanna punch somebody? Okay. You wanna kick them? Fine! But the next time anybody -- especially the offender in question, and you know who you are -- goes full-blown MURDER on somebody else we're going to have a little chat!

[ She leans into the camera. Is it possible for someone's eyeballs to be on fire from pure rage? Maybe. Either way, she hisses into the camera ]

And it's not going to be a pleasant one!

Who: Crew of the First Breath & Visitors!
Broadcast: Video: First Breath/ Open To The Fleet!
Action: On the First Breath!
When: Right after the shuffle.

[First Breath Only]

This is your captain speaking. Apparently. I'll try not to give any orders you don't want to follow - key to a good commander, right?

We should establish a chain of command. Talk about goals. And maybe see if we can manage fancy uniforms as a ratings stunt.

[Fleetwide]

So. How seriously am I supposed to take my new rank?

Who: The Crew of the Huntress
Broadcast: ??? IF YOU WANT???
Action: Here and there on the Huntress
When: Whenever!

[It's a nice ship, isn't it? It's definitely a nice ship. It doesn't matter if it's a nice ship to other people. It's a nice ship to him.

What a nice ship.
