Who: Jim Kirk & the good people of the Fleet
Broadcast: Video
Action: The Marsiva, Hospitality Deck
When: Now until the next shuffle

[ The feed pops up everyone will be greeted with a combination of fluffy, tousled golden hair and very angry looking bright blue eyes. There is a faint flush to his cheeks with make his few freckles stand out and his normally expressive mouth is set in a thin line.

Captain James Tiberius Kirk is not a happy man.

But then you might not be too if you had found yourself waking up and staring at a ceiling that was definitely not your ceiling on your ship, and definitely not in your bed. While the last part wasn't necessarily strange for him, the fact he did not remember getting there and that he did not have a partner last night was. That this was all happening on what was essentially the maiden voyage of his brand new ship on his brand new mission just made this more irritating than laughable.

On top of that, he could tell... something had been done to him. He wasn't quite sure what, but something, he could feel it on the back of his neck, and that was disturbing him far, far more than he cared to admit aloud. ]


To anyone who can hear or see this - my name is Captain James Tiberius Kirk, of the Federation Star Ship Enterprise. I don't know what it is you think you're doing - and if this is some kind of prank, it's a damn poor one - but I would greatly appreciate an explanation and to be returned to my ship immediately.

I would really hate to start off on a misunderstanding, after all.

[ He flashes a smile now, as if to smooth things over, but there's a tightness in the corners.

The missive given, he'll be exploring what he personally thinks of as a rather large holding cell while he waits for a response, curious as to if he's alone, who else might be here, and if he can find out anything from the ship itself. Where's a terminal so he can poke at it? ]

[ a cute young blonde pops up on the screen. her energy is peppy but her expression is sympathetic and somewhat serious ]

I've been told they don't really respond to or care about what we have to say. Sorry.

[She was in his shoes a week ago. Things have gotten somewhat better, now that she's off the Marsiva and can move about freely from ship to station, but finding yourself in a new place without warning is never fun.]

Most of the people who can hear and see this are in a similar situation.

[ the enterprise pings him -- beverly had gone on and on about the enterprise, and han still politely rejects her assertion that it is better than the falcon, thank you -- but he can sympathize. being ripped away from your home sucks, man. ]

Welcome to the Fleet, Captain.

[ mildly ]

Han Solo. You're not gonna be leaving anytime soon, and nobody's gonna hurt you while you're on board the Marsiva. But you're gonna be stuck there for a few days until Atroma figures out where to put you.

[The ship name gives her pause. She's met people from there before during her prison stay.]

Data's Enterprise or Chekov's?

[There will be time for explaining the place later. Too much time.]

Do you really think this could be a 'misunderstanding'?

[ Well now. This man looks a lot like FDR, the man Leto had been conversing for a long time with. But not quite alike. Different universe, after all. Suddenly, he felt a burst of sympathy for those like him - who appeared in the face of a loved one but was a stranger.

He would not survive, seeing another Kanda, a strange look at him and not know who he is. ]


Found any answers, Captain?

Yeah, good luck getting an explanation. This place likes to stay nice and quiet until it dumps us on planets or space stations. So you're in for a long misunderstanding.

[ not to be pessimistic about it, but he's been here for a while now and others have been here even longer, so. ] It's not a hostile place anyway. I mean, I don't think anyone's been killed yet.

[ Hera doesn't know anything about a Federation, but she's been here long enough to know that doesn't really matter, anyway. She puts on her best 'diplomatic captain' face to address this newcomer. ]

Hi, Captain Kirk. I'm Captain Hera Syndulla, of the Alliance Phoenix Squadron. We're all captives here, and the people responsible won't be responding to your inquiry, I'm afraid. And they won't be returning you to your ship, either. We're all stuck here.

( Although Lydia never actually met Kirk she has heard his name, and Enterprise's, in her efforts befriending Leonard McCoy. It's a slightly nice reminder of someone she was fond of, a chance to hear more and- well he's also cute )

If your ship was here we'd probably have some more luck here. But I don't actually know where in space we are.

[Well, she can't say she's totally surprised by Kirk's arrival. Atroma has already proven that they're more than happy to pull people in from different points in history. Hell, even before coming here, she met Scotty, who everyone thought was long dead, thanks to time travel nonsense so really, it's not as strange as it could be. What is strange about it is how everything about him seems slightly... off, at least based on the old photographs and video she's seen of him.

But still.

It's Captain James T. Kirk. In the flesh. Almost any Starfleet officer of the 24th century would be a little starstruck by the encounter. So she gives herself a private moment to freak out a bit before calling him, poker face completely intact.]


Captain Kirk. This is Dr. Beverly Crusher, formerly of the USS Enterprise... [Ah, fuck it. She and Bashir already ignored the Temporal Prime Directive pretty well as it is.] ... D. I'm from the year 2370, Stardate 47988. I'm now assigned to this fleet's SS Blue Fish and have been here for eleven months. We - along with other people from many different universes and timelines - have been kidnapped by some unknown entity called Atroma to supposedly be part of a reality television show. I will do my best to answer any questions you undoubtedly have.

Um... our kidnappers? [ she makes a face like, yeah, i know how that sounds ]

I'm still kind of learning the ropes.

Entertainment, I think? Apparently we're on a reality show, but there's no actual proof of audience, besides getting paid regularly and sometimes getting fanmail, I think.

Sorry, I wish I could be more helpful.

My name's Kara, by the way.

[personal profile] percolates 2016-02-08 12:08 am (UTC)(link)
I'm sorry. The people here are kind, and they'll help you as best they can. The unfortunate thing is that we are very stuck.

[And now that she's not the newest of the new, she supposes it's her turn to help when she can.]

My name is Ciri.

Nothing to write home about, I'm afraid. Most of what we do know is couched in hearsay.

[ And the timeline is too clouded for him to perceive the Atroma. ]

For all we know, they may not even be nearby.
