driftfleet | 001

Who: Freyja and you!
Broadcast: Fleetwide.
Action: Marsiva.
When: Today!

[It takes a little bit before Freyja's face is all up in the camera, mostly because she's going through the motions of waking up in a weird place and freaking out. There's a yelp and a crash as she falls out of bed, and then a few more minutes of her exploring... until she realizes that something is broadcasting. And that's when she starts to address everyone. Maybe it'll get her in touch with the Delta Platoon or something?? There's a lot that's relatively similar to the technology she's used to, at least.

For some reason, the little heart-shaped hair... decoration? Is flickering just a little between being bright and being dim.]

Hiya! Does anyone got an idea on where we are? If there's anyone listening? There's gotta be someone listening somewhere, right? I'm Freyja. I really gotta be getting back to my friends, 'cause I can't be around here for too long. I don't think I've seen a place like this in the Macross, so maybe I just got lost or something.

[Sora sees this message, and he can't help but feel a little bad, since boy does he want to get back to his friends too]

I'm listening! But I'm probably not who you had in mind, sorry.

No, but it's okay! Who are you?

[She had been hoping Hayate or Mirage or something would answer, but... oh well.]

Me? I'm Sora!

I'm in the same boat you are. Most people around here are.

Hi, Freyja! It's, uhm … [ No, Aoko, do not say "it's nice to meet you." Not yet, anyway. She swallows back the reflexive words with difficulty. ] My name's Aoko.

There's a lot of people here to listen, but most of us are in the exact same boat.

That's pretty unfortunate... [And a little alarming, but she doesn't feel like showing that even if that hair... decoration??? tinges to a blue color for a split second.] I guess there's no flights to any other ships, right? If there's so many people in the same boat.

Nice to meet you, Sora!

I'm guessing there's no flight to somewhere else if there's a bunch of people here?

Mmn! Tell me about it. [ Unfortunate is a mild word for their situation, although … well … it could be a lot worse, as Aoko well knows. ]

[ But, wait. Did that hair accessory just change color? Huh. Aoko's gaze lingers on it for a moment, before she catches herself and looks away. ]

I wish I had some better news for you. People have been trying to unravel the mysteries of this place for a long time now, from what I've heard. I've only been here for a couple of months myself.

[She doesn't pay much mind to the eyes lingering on that—she's used to it, coming from a place where Windermereans are relatively rare thanks to how isolationist they are.]

I guess that means I'll have to make the most of it, then! It can't be all that bad if there's people like you around.

Well we are flying... Just, not to any places where people really wanna go, from the sound of it. I haven't heard of anyone coming across their homeworld, anyway.

The galaxy is really big, though! Is there a galactic network we can connect to? I tried, but I couldn't find what I needed.

I...don't think so? Just the fleet network.

I'll just have to keep looking for it, then!

Until then, though, what's the fleet like?

Well... it's not bad! I mean, I wouldn't call it good since none of us choose to be here.

But I've made friends and stuff! And I like my crew! So that's good!

Good meeting, lady - there are many, listening. But you are, I fear, not going to terribly like the answer.

E-Eh? [ Oh no. Oh no. Aoko smiles, cheeks warming with a light blush. ] Well …! There's a lot of nice people here.

But hopefully we'll find a way to get everyone back to where they want to be soon. [ "Want" is the keyword, there. She knows that not everyone comes from a place they'd wish to go back to. ]

I dunno, you could always try me! Maybe I will!

It would be nice to get back Ragna sometime soon. They're probably looking for me everywhere! [Or will be, once she doesn't show up for helping out at the restaurant.] But even if it's not soon, that might be okay if everyone's nice.

[Even if it may be frustrating that she can't get back to her friends.]

That's making the most of it! Even if it ain't always the easiest to do, not everything is gonna be all bad.

[He smiles at that. What a positive person]

Yeah, you're right!

And I do like getting to see new places!

So do I!

What kinda places have you seen?

All sorts of places! A couple planets with huge forests, a moon where you had to wear a gas mask all the time- there was this one system where there were a bunch of planets and lots of people!

Ah, about that …

[ She pauses, trying to pull her thoughts together. ]

You'd be better off talking to somebody who's been here longer than me, and I'm sure there are different theories – but there's a chance that you might not be "missing" there at all. It's kind of confusing.

[There's a flash of confusion.]

I guess nothing's impossible, but that sounds really weird! How can I be here and there at the same time??

[And then there's another pause as she remembers all the cloning that happened back in Earth history or something, she didn't pay that much attention, but she knows that Earth repopulated itself with cloning.]

Am I a clone!?

Seriously!? That all sounds so—[She can't even think of the word she wants to use initially, she just waves her hands around for a couple of seconds.]—amazing! I hope we get to see more of those!

I'm sure we will!

We're in a system right now with a big hotel in space! And there's a planet too, but it's mostly ice.
