Gumball Wishes and Taxicab Dreams

[On today's episode of the Drift Fleet:

The cargo holds are full of mysterious crates! The crews are filling beyond capacity with new faces! Official alerts are informing the passengers that they are signed to contracts that they've never agreed to! They are docking at the dazzling FS Starlight, but are flat broke!

What are they going to do!? Stay tuned to find out!


...Meaning, this is a kickoff mingle for you all to enjoy the beginning of the latest plot setting. This is a convenient place to start threads relating to the first week of the event-- meeting new crewmembers, reacting to the mysterious cargo, arriving on the station and discovering that you're all broke, etc.

Tag around, start whatever you'd like, have fun. And, as always, feel free to make your own posts and mingles from here on in, as this will be the only mod-posted one for this event!]

...You're kidding?

[Wow. He just...wow. He gazes skywards, to wherever Atroma's stupid invisible cameras are at. ]

What is it? Screw Around the Blue Fish Month? Is that what this is? Could you quit it? It's getting really old now!

I'm not kidding. My account, the ship's account, the food account, the bail account- even my secret account is frozen!

[Why does he even have a secret account?? WHO KNOWS...]

I know. [He makes a frustrated] I know I have a bit of cash hidden in my room- but it's not nearly enough to cover supplies...

[That's...really not good. ]

I mean, I caught enough fish and meat on the last planet to see us through for a while, but-

[But the ship is very, very full. Food won't stretch the way it could before. ]

Did they give any reason?

It says that our ship has been flagged for unauthorized cargo by their scanners, and our accounts will be frozen until they can finish investigating.

Not sure what that means.

...That's not good.

[Atroma can they have like...one quiet week? Please? Just one. ]

I better check the cargo bay. If they've dumped a ton of sponsor stuff there again, I'm gonna be really annoyed.

No, it's not...

[He takes a deeeeeep breath.]

I'll...inform the crew of the situation while you do that.

They gonna loooove this one. Just putting it out there right now, this is officially our worst month ever.

[He'll go prod about the cargo bay and hope his beloved statue isn't damaged.]
save_the_souls: (no bad)

[Calling after]

Don't jinx us! The month isn't over!

[THERES STILL TIME TO GET WORSE]
