Good morning!

[Sometime during what the ships' clocks claim as Friday morning, a peppy musical jingle rings out through the speakers all over the ship. It is soon followed by a female voice that should be familiar to most by now]

Good morning, dear passengers! I hope you are all doing well and listening closely, because our broadcast serves two very important functions today!

Firstly, this is the Twelfth Cycle's very first Drift Fleet Shuffle! ...For those of you who don't know, the Shuffle occurs every week, and it's where we all say hello to new faces, goodbye to old friends, and find out how the crews have changed!

This week, we are welcoming four new passengers into the flock, so please keep an eye out for any unfamiliar faces being beamed into your cargo holds, and give them a warm welcome. Other than that, it seems that no one has filed to rearrange their crews-- isn't that wonderful? I'm so glad you're all getting along!

There have been changes in rank however, so I would like to heartily congratulate the Twelfth Cycle's first round of captains on obtaining their illustrious new titles!

We applaud you, Captain Rogers, Captain Harvey, Captain Hange, Captain Stark, Captain Crowley, Captain Kouzuki, Captain Cress, Captain Ichimaru, Captain Redbreast, and Captain... [a bit of a pause] ...Stampede?

[and yes... that might be the sound of applause in the very distant background]

And now, with the Shuffle out of the way, we can move onto what we've all really been waiting for-- the fleet's arrival in our first system! Starting today, the fleet will be moving into range of some outer way-stations, so be sure to visit them to refuel and stretch your legs. The way-stations in this area aren't much to look at, but still good for curing cabin fever, socializing, and doing a little shopping. We will also be coming into range of our first planet, but that won't be until later on in the month... so, don't worry about it now! You'll be hearing more about it later.

For now, just relax and enjoy yourselves! Remember, the worlds are watching!

[-oh my god. He hasn't heard this guy panic since Satan showed up at the castle.]

Ah-

It's okay! Maybe we can get someone else to apply and take over! Or you can dump all the work on someone else!

Just- breath! Don't forget to breath!

I DON'T BREATHE!!!!!

[Okay. No. Calming thoughts.]

You know, someone else should have this work dumped on them. Who's in my crew. [Thinking.]

Emblica, congrats, you're now captain.

[Wow Crowley that sure was fast acting responsibility ditching! He feels like he should say something- like maybe you should at least ask Emblica first. He's only talked to her once, but she didn't seem like the sort that'd want to be captain.]

[But on the other hand, Crowley was basically family to Allen and was actually upset about this. And while Allen had total faith in Crowley regarding other things -- having him in charge of a bunch of strangers' well-beings had to be one of the worst ideas he's ever heard.]

[So welp, sorry Emblica, he's throwing you under the bus. Hope you can forgive him!]


Yes...congratulations Emplica. I'm sure you'll be horrified when you hear the news.

[Especially when it comes to a giant heap of moving metal through space and the need to talk to others flying likewise lumps of metal through space. Just asking for mass death, really.]

She'll be delighted. [Flatly.]

[It really is. Asking Allen to guard a buffet table would be a better idea really]

[But he'll just sigh. Poor Emblica. There was no other way]
