Sound-off, one, two

[thespaceopera]

[the interference is much better today! they really must be slowly leaving behind whatever cloud of radiation Diamond has been talking about, as the obligatory jingle comes in close to crystal clear. though, your host's voice still crackles a little before the signal finally irons itself out.]

Good morning, dear passengers-- both old and new! I hope you've all been enjoying all of this excitement! The Fleet is really building momentum, isn't it? The thrill of the local moons, all of this new activity, and our freshly booming ranks!

It's exciting... we're finally getting somewhere...

[she certainly sounds excited. almost edgy about it, really.]

Two whole ships are joining our ranks this week... bringing our number up to fourteen! Fourteen intrepid crews, fourteen fearless captains... [a pause, then] ...Sorry, fifteen. My mistake.

The SS Caprine and SS Starstruck join formation this week, with Captain Chopper and Captain... oh, my apologies again. [another pause...] The message must have gotten a little chewed up, folks. It looks like Captain Ellen-something, but the rest...

[and after another minute of thought, she finally gives up.]

Oh well, let's just go with that. Welcome to Captain Chopper and Captain Ellen! And we've lost Captain Henry this week, but First Mate Kingsley is stepping up to take control of the SS Bishop.

We wish you brave leaders all the luck as the Fleet gears up to make its way out of this region... and into the special surprise waiting for you in the month to come!

Enjoy yourselves! And remember-- the worlds are watching!

[A surprise? That's never good.]

I just hope we don't get turned into animals or something bizarre like that. Let's put ten credits on a planet with great perks but a toxic atmosphere--wouldn't it be just like them to taunt us.

[He lets out a small laugh noise]

With Atroma-provided air masks that have the chance of turning your skin blue, I'm sure.

[got_it_memorized]

Yes, canned air, sponsored by Floot Loops! Comes in cherry, lime, and sellout.

[wilder]

Oh, my favorite flavors of air!

But seriously- does the changing into animal thing actually happen?

[got_it_memorized]

I did a lot of traveling for work back home. Sometimes this travel involved... certain measures being taken to make sure we didn't stick out too much. Or, case in point, drown. Went to a place once that was entirely underwater and populated by fish people.

Let's just say, I hope if you are ever turned into a fish person you don't discover belatedly--accidentally--that you have poisonous spines on your tail.

[Axel hates Atlantica, okay.]

[...]

Wow.

Gotta say, that answer was a wild ride the whole way through.

[Like seriously Axel what is your life???]

[got_it_memorized]

Well, I can say one thing for my old job: there was rarely a dull moment.

[If it wasn't sniffing out traitors and dodging Keyblade heroes, it was jungles or crazy size-changing forests or getting turned into fish people or lions or something. What is his life indeed.]

[wilder]

Sounds like. This whole thing must be a snooze after that.

[got_it_memorized]

Hey, I like snoozing, thanks very much! I'll take a relaxing space vacation over gills and fins any day.

[wilder]

Glad to hear it.
