003 - Blingee yourself!

[onlyanapple]

Who: Crowley and you!
Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action: Pathstone
When: 24th

[Crowley turns on the video with a wide grin. Those who know him well enough would know nothing comes from that grin but sheer, unmitigated trouble. It's the sort of grin that makes the knowledgeable get the heck out of dodge, and fast.]

So. Ino told me to do something useful, so I decided to put something on the network for you all to play with.

[PING and a link appears. Do you want to click it? You know you do. It also has annoying popups, mostly "give Crowley alcohol!!!" or "don't forget your lube!!" but still. Got to make it authentic.]

Now you can entertain yourselves to your little heart's content. Go nuts, kids.

[Encrypted to comms officers- another link:]

Here's the hack-code, if you want to make sure they can't delete the little buggers. Have yourselves some fun.

[sonati]

Who: Sonata and you!
Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action: SS Vanquish
When: 4/23

[There is a tiny space idol appearing on the screen today, dressed in an idol outfit and wearing an interesting-looking necklace. Of course, what's probably the most notable thing about her are the heart-shaped highlights in her hair and eyes. A certain someone might recognize her.

None of that really matters, though! What matters is that she looks both bored and slightly disgruntled, because she still hasn't been able to find her dumb penguin companion.]

Sonata's looked all over now, and Slowpoke still isn't anywhere to be found! [Admittedly, she's only been able to search the Vanquish so far, but that counts as 'all over', right?] Where is he, anyway? It's not like he could have gone very far; he's too slow for that.

[Of course, there's been times he's gotten away from her regardless, like now, but she's refraining from mentioning that bit of info.]

Hey! If anyone's seen a purple penguin, let Sonata know, okay? His name's Slowpoke, but he'll probably call himself Penguinmon. He's really bossy and no fun at all... and he doesn't like me much, but he's supposed to be my partner, so he'll just have to deal; you should tell him that, too.

[What is she even talking about? Who knows, and her way of speaking is probably super weird for some people too. Maybe it's an imaginary friend.]

Eighth ♠ Video

[save_the_souls]

Who: Allen Walker
Broadcast: Video, all ships.
Action: Blue Fish!
When: Today!

[The video feed comes on, and as previous broadcasts, Allen is chilling in his clinic.]

Hello. I'm Allen Walker, first mate and one of the medics aboard the SS Blue Fish. I know there's been a lot of new faces, so it's nice to meet you all- sorry you got dragged into this.

[He clears his throat] Anyway a few quick things today.

First of all, I know many of you have been busy with securing engineering parts for the ships, but the clinics are still looking for supply donations. If you have anything you can donate to the clinic in regards to medicine or basic supply, I would be happy to pay you. [He links a supply list] If you're looking for specifics for ideas, I have some requests in that attachment. And if you like to make some supply requests of your own, you can do that as well too.

Second, it seems we've acquired a great deal of doctors, medics and healers. Welcome aboard! If it's possible, I would like to meet you so I can get to know of your capabilities and what resources you might need. Thank you!

And last of all, for anyone interested Dr. Crusher and I are offering lessons in first aid. Even if you have a medic on your ship, it's good to know these things just in case of emergencies. If you were assigned as a lab assistant but have no prior medical experience, I highly encourage you to come so we can make sure you're properly prepared. If anyone is interested, please contact me! And oh yes, there will be food.

That's all I have! Thank you for your time!

[And the feed cuts out]

TOXICOSIS PT. 2: ELECTRIC BOOGALOO

[idealistic]

Who: Lloyd Irving and YOU YES YOU
Broadcast: PROBABLY NONE…
Action: Waystation, possibly eventually to the Wonderduck
When: NOW


[ like the last flareup, it was only a matter of time before he went through this song and dance again. with so many things that happened all at once — Colette's and Sheena's (and Emil's, apparently) arrival, the attack, everything he did and felt at Mor — it's a wonder that Lloyd didn't have his flareup sooner. he had nearly gotten to the point of questioning it: whether it was over with, whether he would experience it again or wouldn't…

leave it to him to question it at the worst time.

like the last flareup, it hit him gradually but unexpectedly. like last time, it started with a slight fever and achiness — which made sense, since he was working near non-stop. he figured after this current supply run, he'd make his way to the VRD to create another simulation of Iselia Forest to help him clear his head. it was never the real deal, but the sound of the creek usually was enough to help him relax.

alas, he'd never make it. halfway to the Wonderduck, the toxicosis flares up in full and he falls over, in the middle of the way station, with food, parts, and whatever else was in those boxes strewn all around him. he's shaking, breathing heavily, and if anyone happens to notice, seems to be pale-- really pale, so pale his lips are turning blue.

well. this is certainly out of the norm, isn't it? ]
