do the mingle shuffle!

Who: you! me! everyone! it's like a really big party!
Broadcast: if you want!
Action: see above!
When: right now!!!

[ So the weekly shuffle has happened. We got new captains, people who have mysteriously disappeared-- I mean, who have never existed, and new people aboard the ships. That's exciting! Wow! ]

[ New people, get acquainted with your ships? Press all the buttons? Introduce yourself like a polite individual? Old people, keep aging? Welcome them with open arms and confetti? Punch the person who just opened the door while you were in the shower??? ]

[ Who knows! It's a mingle post! Don't ask me!]

[ (But seriously, how bout those people who never existed, huh.) ]

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

Yeah, good point.

Oh- wait, does that mean you don't know how to swim?

Yes, that's what it means.

[ In a bit of a tone that implies "is there a problem with that?" ]

Aw.

Don't worry- maybe there'll be floaties or something!

[ What are these "floaties" of which you speak. ]

Are you making fun of me?

[ She is older than you, have some respect!!! ]

[WHAT IS RESPECT]

Hmm...maybe a lifevest then? They seem more classy.

[ idk probably a dessert. or an appetizer. ]

What would I do with a lifevest?

[ Literally. Girl has no idea. ]

Well...you wear it, and then you float!

I think it would be easier not to go into the water, wouldn't it?

Maybe- but there could come a time where you have to go in the water! Then what?

[ Drowning is one of the ways she hasn't died yet, and she doesn't want to start now! ]

Why would I have to?

Well, we could always be dropped off on a planet that's nothing but water....

........I wouldn't leave the ship.

Hm?

You scared of water or something?

Living beings need water to survive.

[ That....is not what he meant, Emblica. ]

Yeah...?

And humans need doctors, but that doesn't exactly stop some from screaming any time you so much as pull a thermometer out. So what?

It would be irrational to fear water.

Who said fear had to be rational?

It would make more sense to talk of a fear of drowning, rather than of water.

So...you're scared of drowning then?

Is it that uncommon?

[ The...slightest bit annoyed, maybe. ]

I didn't say if it was or wasn't! You're the one reading into things.

[ W-well, he's the one being nosy! ]

I wasn't reading into anything.

[Always!]

You sure~?

[ Don't you take that tone with her, young man! ]

I'm sure.

[ Man, how did they even get on this subject. ]

In any case, I doubt we'd visit any place without land.

[He'll take any tone he wants]

Maybe not. I'm not predicting anything with these people.
