Would anybody be interested in joining an Augment Support network? Like, for people who need help getting the hang of their augment and want to ask a veteran, or for someone who learns something new and wants to share it with their peers.

I'm fine with doing the all the administrative work if anybody is interested being a mentor, or would like to be available for a help line. Or if someone would like help connecting with someone who has more expertise.

I think we all have a lot to offer each other.

Wow, what a great idea.

[ genuine delight, really. this is cool. ]

[monolike]

Oh, thank you! I'm glad you're interested, that's awesome. Would you like to be involved?

[ladybro]

Sure. I'm a cook according to my augment -- and not necessarily a great one. But I've learned some tips and tricks. They could be helpful to newbies with the same augment.

[monolike]

Yup, especially since a bunch of the ships don't have the same advantages as others. Without a lot of flavor choices, sometimes the food can be a little... [disgusting as shit]

Oh, but if you have any other skills that could be helpful for someone trying to learn their augment, that'll work too! Like experience with communications systems, or security. I've noticed a lot of people come in here knowing how to fight.

I'd be happy to offer my services.

[ Someone save him from pilot duty. ]

[monolike]

Obi Wan! Hey, thank you! I know people can absolutely benefit from your tutelage. Would you want to just coach people with a Pilot augment? I know you've got some pretty specialized skills that don't have anything to do with the augments at all.

Re: [ video ]

[beardstrokes]

I can do that. My piloting skills are partly from the Augment. I have experience in that area without it. I could also provide . . . sword training, I believe? And a specialized form of martial arts.

[ video ]

[monolike]

Ah, combat training...maybe that would be helpful to someone with a security augment... [well it would be useful without also but this isn't like battle club or anything] Could I put you down for both? Would it be all right for me to list you as a contact?

[universal_charm]

That sounds like a really good idea.

I'm willing to be put down for a mentor, and work the 'helpline'.

Ah - my name's Jim Kirk, by the way, captain over on the Tourist.

[monolike]

Nice to meet you, Captain Kirk! I'm Sorey, I'm the engineer for the Huntress. -oh right, also First Mate. That's new. [scarily new]

I'm really grateful for your interest. Can I ask what augment you have?

Re: video;

[universal_charm]

I'm an Engineer Augment, but I'm an experience spaceship captain from my own world too, so this technology isn't new to me.

video;

[monolike]

Ooh, an engineer with experience! That's awesome! I'm an engineer too but I'm uh, I'm still a newbie. Having a veteran available for consultation for other engineers would be fantastic!

video;

[geonomy]

[Yes. Yes, good. This is a good, welcome distraction.]

That's a great idea, Sorey! I've got the pilot augment, but I've also already been trained to fly space ships back at home, and I've been flying planes for a few years before that, too.

[sorry did you want to ignore the crisis]

Clay, Mikleo told me everything. I'm- I'm so sorry, I didn't have my comm with me, Mikleo looked for me but he didn't want to waste too much time-

video;

[geonomy]

[yes actually he did but!! WHATEVER!!!]

No no, it's fine! You're fine! We got a lot of help, and everyone got treated, so - really, it's fine!

video;

[monolike]

Ah, no- Augh! I mean, I wasn't trying to say you have to reassure me or anything, it's my own fault for being so negligent-!

video

[wolfehawke]

Not a bad idea. I'm Adalwolfe Hawke, Communications on the First Breath. I'd be happy to either help or just commiserate with anyone else feeling a technological disconnect; I can't be the only one from a world not anywhere near as advanced as this who's having a little difficulty adjusting to all of this new knowledge.

Also, I'm pleasantly surprised at everyone's willingness to help each other here. That's almost just as much of a shock as as the augments.

video

[monolike]

Oh no, that's the same for me! I mean, I'd never even been on a seafaring ship, and then I show up here. -we have them, I mean. Seafaring ships. I'd just never been on one.

video

[wolfehawke]

They're nothing to write home about, really. They smell with too many people, and rock incessantly, and are at the mercy of the weather. I far prefer these spaceships.

[Isabela would threaten to cut out his tongue if she heard him.]

[spontaneouscombustion]

Oooh, that's a REALLY good idea! I'm kind of in between; I'd make stuff at home from time to time but I'm not THAT good at the wiring and programming stuff yet.

video

[monolike]

[is that a pink horse

....yes it is, ok. thank goodness he has talking spirit cats and dogs where he's from, or this might be even weirder.]

Oooh, really? Do you have an engineering augmentation here?

[spontaneouscombustion]

You've got it! I'm Pinkie Pie, and I'm the Caprine's engineer! What's your name?

[ownassets]

It sounds like a good idea. I wasn't familiar with this level of technology until I arrived.

[monolike]

Oh man, same here. It's quite a shock, coming into this all of a sudden. Even with the augments.

Are you doing okay now?

[ownassets]

I've picked some of it up. My augment helped, but there's still more I need to learn.
