Who: Tim Drake AND YOU.
Broadcast: Fleetwide video & text stream.
Action: The Marsiva.
When: 1/29; evening.

[Tim has been pacing the deck, finding every corner, every computer console, working furiously to research whatever he can since the moment he woke up. Knowledge is a form of control; secrecy is another, and he has far too much of one and absolutely no guarantee of the second, and it makes him edgy. But once he's gotten a grip on the basic concept, delaying makes no sense.]

[The video broadcast reveals a young man - eighteen, give or take a few months - in a trim blue suit and red tie, dark hair neatly parted but still falling into his eyes, which are blue and unmistakably angry or tense no matter how well we modulates his tone and keeps it off the rest of his face, crisp and professional.]


Good... evening, I think, is the local time? Timothy Jackson Drake-Wayne, Pilot Officer reporting for duty - or I will be soon, if I'm getting the right idea here. I wanted to reach out and touch base before I was assigned - get an idea of what the ships are like, who I might be serving with, how long everyone's been here. Anything you can tell me would be appreciated.

Video; gosh sorry about that, sleep deprivation was showing

Oh.

[She looks down at the communicator she's using, but...yeah no, the augment isn't giving her anything on that. Back to the question at hand.]

Does that change anything? I thought we were all supposed to be competing against each other.
hearsthesea: (she gave me her blessing)

Video; no problem!

Oh, I'm sorry. It's Shirley, on the Huntress. I've been here a month so far, and it seems like they aren't lacking in ways to keep things interesting.

[Unfortunately for them.]
hearsthesea: (forgot about them)

We've all been taken against our will. I don't think their idea of interesting is likely to be good for us.

You haven't been down on the land yet, have you? It's...strange.
hearsthesea: (that's just selfish)

Almost all of it is covered is forest. If you go inside for a while and follow the path, you'll start to see illusions.
hearsthesea: (Stella'll be mad)

Hallucinations. I saw a...something that reminded me of home. The others on my crew saw their own illusions. It's not my place to talk about what they saw, but we're sure they were all meant to lead us off the main path.
hearsthesea: (a new tale will begin)

I don't know. We managed to keep each other from leaving.
