Broadcast: N/A

['Sup, it's a ship mingle. We've lost Adawolfe, Anders and Ravi, but gained Lance, Shovel Knight, and Chuuya.

Enjoy the free pudding and make yourselves at home, newbies.]

[Castle was dressed to the nines in the glam-rocker supplies he'd gotten from the sponsors. Sporting a mullet wig and an open-chested, tight, sparkling shirt, he'd been practing his act, crooning to nobody into a toy plastic microphone as he followed the cleaning bots on their usual duties.]

Oh, I love my Rosie child
You've got the way to make me happy
You and me, we go in style
Cracklin' Rose, you're a store-bought woman
But you make me sing like a guitar hummin'
So hang on to me, girl, our song keeps runnin' ooooooon~

[The hits keep on coming. The ship was dwindling back to what it had been before the fusion collision. She knew some of them better than others. She knew practically nothing about Lancer, but Ravi had quickly become a very close friend.

Kitty is sitting in the kitchen, poking at some beets she got from the asteroids, not entirely sure what to do with beets in their raw form to get them to the point where she wants to eat them. She hears someone come in and without looking up, she speaks.] Does it ever feel like the Windrose is quietly eating the Three Twins?

[Or, you know, any other prompt you'd like around the ship. And if you're new this is one of your co-captains. If you're not new then she's still one of your co-captains. She's also easy to find reading in the pilot's seat, checking over systems, walking on the air to water the hanging plants in the cargo bay or exercising on the equipment in there.]

[ Yoink. Summer grabs a familiar deck of cards from a drawer. She and Wolfe had played a few games with this deck, something he'd had custom made. Strip Wicked Grace had been a particularly favorite night.

People come and go. Anders had come and gone a long time ago, and then again more recently. He'd gone with less of a bang this last time. Summer had decided long ago that she didn't get attached to people for that reason.

So when she stood in the center of Wolfe's room, she definitely not basking in whatever lasting presence still existed. She wasn't going over memories of their brief frienship, of the time they plunged into the depths of a water planet with a dragon on their tale together.

She was just looking for anything she wanted to keep, like this deck of cards.

That's all. ]

[Vash may be a bit upset to have seen all of his old crew go. Mostly because they actually don't know for sure if those who leave actually go home or not.

But was he going to let those worries show to his new crew? Not a chance. Vash is nothing but smiles as he seeks out the new members to welcome.] HEY THERE! Welcome aboard the Twin Roses! [Hopefully a rather hyper, 5'10 tall (not counting the gravity denying hair), man dressed in a red, leather duster who is coming up to shake your hand isn't too much to take in.] I'm Vash! One of the captains here! Great to meet you!

[If that's too much "in your face" Vash will also be found in the plant room. Just because Anders has gone doesn't mean he's going to let the garden die. Making sure they have plenty of water and tending to as is needed for them.

Or you may find him in the pilot's area. Updating the maps and books he's been trying to keep relating to the places the fleet has visited since the start of this cycle.]

[ they weren't kidding about that confetti thrown in his face. one second he was sitting on his cot on the marsiva's hospitality deck, playing tic-tac-toe with himself, and the next - he's standing somewhere else entirely and the blasted thing is everywhere! he blows his nose, and colorful bits of paper fly off in a huff. ]

Bloody hell, ever heard of a warning! [ can we say he's been magiced off to enough locations now?! goddammit! he has legs, let him use them!

once he gets the blasted confetti out of his hair - which, fortunately, isn't all that difficult - lance will proceed to explore his new surroundings. no unlocked door is safe! the armory and kitchen both get special attention from him. you bet your ass he's going to be packing heat from now on, and once he finds the real food supply, you may be lured into the kitchen by the tasty scent of stew. sorry, was he supposed to ask first? consider name labels next time. he's happy to share the finished product, though. only fair. ]

[Both ships fusing was disconcerting enough, but now the population keeps changing. There was a point when their crew was mostly women. It was more comfortable, that's for sure.

Still, Makie is having a more relaxing time of late, so while she doesn't go out of her way to be sociable, she isn't avoiding the majority of the ship, either. She inhabits the kitchen on a reasonably regular basis when she's not down on the planet, and can be found one night in the cargo bay, giving her shamisen some careful maintenance after the week's use down below.

(...you can also catch her after the 23rd as a child; just tag as such.)]
