✞ 001

[zekken]

Who: Yuuki Konno and maybe you?
Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action: Briefly on the Marsiva / then on the SS First Breath
When: Backdated pre-shuffle on the Marsiva / Post-shuffle on the SS First Breath

[ At a glance, the girl onscreen might just look like a fifteen-year-old girl with long dark hair and red eyes. There might be a very slight hint of purple color in her skin too, that looks to be a bit unusual to be a normal human. Look more closely, you'll spot a pair of pointy ears past her long locks of hair.

Yet another elf, it seems, until a pair of transparent, black bat-shapped fairy wings unfold themselves behind her back. She only shows her wings very briefly and as they fold onto her back again, they disappear. For a moment, she looked like a giant, human-sized fairy and now she's back to looking like some kind of elf.

She's examining herself, flexing her fingers, looking at her arms, and hopping up and down. It's almost like she's checking if her body is properly functioning.

Then she finally turns towards the feed, a big smile spreading across her face. No big deal that she was being recorded checking herself out. ]

Yo! [ A wave of her hand. ] I didn't see any tutorial or beginning quest NPCs around, so... can someone help a newbie out? I need to know if this is real or did I just dive into another VRMMORPG?

[ It feels real. But she has to confirm. ]

[ After the Shuffle: Action for the SS First Breath ]

[ Yuuki is on board the ship, already helping herself to the chocolate pudding dessert for new crew nenbers. At first, she cautiously takes a small taste. Then she starts scarfing down the dessert even more quickly. It's been a long time since she ate a delicious dessert. Real dessert. ]

Who: Mahna Lavellan
Broadcast: Fleet-wide
Action: Marsiva, if you'd like
When: Pre-shuffle

[By the time he's sorted out that he's no longer in Thedas, Mahna's patience has all but run out. The silence had woken him and the continued lack of birds chattering or insects buzzing unsettles him far more than he expects. Instead, inane music plays under his strained voice.]

I am Lord Inquisitor Lavellan and it would serve you well to return my companions to me.

[He hates titles, hates formality, but if it gets his comrades back, he'll throw them around as much as necessary. Nevermind that he's in a foreign place where 'Lord Inquisitor' might just as easily put a target on his back. If Corypheus is behind this, he won't run and hide.]

I was traveling with three others and a ram: Dorian of House Pavus, Lady Mai Bhalsych of Korse, The Iron Bull of the Bull's Chargers, and Lord Woolsley of Redcliffe. If any harm has come to them, I can assure you it will be repaid in kind.

[idealistic]

Who: The crew of and anyone visiting the Wonderduck!
Broadcast: idk maybe??
Action: SS Wonderduckduckgoose
When: All of May!

[ goodness gracious! new games, new upgrades, new crew-- what better way to enjoy all of these than with a month-long mingle!! ]

Open Action: Fleet Wide

[killedwithlove]

Who: Cole and EVERYONE
Broadcast: No
Action: EVERY ship in the Fleet, bar Marsiva, Three Twins and Tourist (Though you can easily find him on another ship if you're from one of those)
When: First week of the month?

[This is a thing Cole does.

He travels the Fleet a lot, from ship to ship, meeting people, talking to people, hanging out. He sees people he knows and meets new ones, or ones he just didn't encounter before

He wants to help everyone. Which means meeting them first. Or finding them. Doing that might involve poking through the ships, even if he really shouldn't. Or going through personal belongings. Sorry about that. He's curious.

And armed. It is worth mentioning he's got a pair of wickedly sharp fighting knives on his back. Sorry about that as well.]

Round Two

[thespaceopera]

[after Beau's stint in addressing the fleet for a month, and then a mysterious lack of any broadcast at all last week, this week plays out a little differently. it is a return to the familiar, but with a small alteration.

today, an entirely new little jingle rings out through the speakers. it's jazzy, it's hip, and it even has a charming 'whoosh' sound effect rounding out the end of it. someone, somewhere, is probably very proud of it.

and Diamond finally makes her return. her voice is... perhaps not quite as manically pleased as it had been in those weeks leading up to the strange attacks, but still chipper nonetheless. instead of exuding glee, her tone is bright, quick, and sharp--almost to the point of being overwound.]

Good morning, passengers! I hope you haven't missed me too badly. I know I sure have missed you. But, everyone needs a little vacation at some point, right? Sometimes, you just... need to get away. Get your head cleared.

Just a little change of scenery. I'm sure you all understand.

[and she clears her throat, hurrying along.]

Things really have been changing around here, haven't they? ...Goodness! So many new faces, and all of these new ships. It's a good thing they're so comfortable, otherwise you might be feeling a little crowded right now, hmm? Don't you worry about that, though.

There isn't a thing to worry about. Every little hiccup is being taken care of.

[and as she shuffles her papers, and no audience--canned or otherwise--makes a sound in the background, the few extra seconds of silence seem to stretch before she moves on.]

And now, onto the shuffle! Not too many new faces this round, it seems. Just enough to snug on into the few empty cots remaining. And I see a few officers changing hats, but nothing too momentous.

Everything is nice and calm, shifting gears a bit, getting ready to boldly move on to what lies ahead.

Keep up the good work, dear passengers! ...The worlds are watching!
