do the mingle shuffle!

[carreau]

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.) ]

►[ For the only other person on the SS Bishop (Kallen), I am so sorry. Right now, there is a very cheerful dark mage exploring the ship, looking in all the rooms, and probably just being really annoying if you're trying to do stuff. Also, if he notices you, he is totally going to start hanging around you. ]



►[ For those who are on any other ship...breathe a sigh of relief, you're safe for now. ]

[ Though there's always the network: ]

Wow, I’ve never seen so many lights in one place before~ I wonder what would happen if I pushed all the buttons at once? Do you think the whole thing would explode?

Ahaha, don’t worry, I won’t really do that~ We should be getting along, instead! Since we're all stuck here, anyway. If you don't trust me, you can just kill me~

[ Yeah, this is the Bishop's new communications guy. ]

► [ If you are on the good ship Pathstone, you might notice that...there is someone "cooking." Quotes because there's not a lot of cooking one can actually do when they don't have a kitchen, but you'd be surprised what you can do with basic medical instruments to cut things up. Also magic.

Anyway. Someone is making ACTUAL FOOD. Sure, it's unidentified meat and confusing vegetables, but...look, it's better than protein stuff.

Aren't you lucky that one of your crewmates was responsible enough to buy food? ]


► [ Good evening, floot. Or whatever time it is. ]

She said we'd be in range of a planet soon...do you wonder what that will mean for us? The air could be poison, or it could be completely uninhabitable. Maybe it would be home to a hostile species.

Or maybe, one of us might recognize it as "home."

Which of those would be the best option, I wonder.

[aberrant_type]

I would be thrilled to see some strange new species!

voice;

[amarant]

Even a dangerous new species?

[ She...has the feeling that she knows the answer to that one already. ]

voice forever;

[aberrant_type]

Of course! Even if it's dangerous, that can be dealt with.

[If you guessed "yes of course" you get a star for knowing Hange, Emblica.]

[amarant]

[ Well, of course. ]

If you do need assistance...dealing with them, you can come to me.

[aberrant_type]

Well, thank you! I hope I can get some better gear than what I have at present... [Which is, like, a really grouchy guy with a gun who probably won't agree to help her, and a CURIOUS SPIRIT!] ... but something like that shouldn't stop anyone from trying!

[amarant]

With more money, it could be possible.

[ A lot of things are possible with money, though. Maybe even making grouchy guy less grouchy. ]

Oh...I've made some food recently, I think it turned out fine. If you'd like, I could make some for you sometime.

[aberrant_type]

Really? What did you make? [She just sort of eats what's there... not that she doesn't enjoy food, but.] I'd love to try it.

[amarant]

I tried to make some of the meat that I bought. I think this time, I overcooked it, but I know better now.

...a friend once told me that food tastes better when eaten with another person, too.

Action - SS Huntress

[ One second he's on the Marsiva and then next he's standing in the bridge, in his pyjamas. With a very pointed look of what the heck just happened painted square across his face.

Because really. What the heck. ]

Why are there so many captains and what did she mean when she said people went missing?? why didi teleport?!

[aberrant_type]

Are you offering to share with me?

[save_the_souls]

[His answer is bit on the slow side. But wow, this one reeks of "newbie"]

You were probably teleported to the ship you were assigned. And there's as many captains as there are ships!

[......Not gonna talk about the missing people because that part is actually concerning and would not help this one]

[sugoooi]

Wait I thought it was just the big ship? the huge one with no people except that weird guy

[amarant]

Well...yes, if that's fine.

[ Is that weird!? Maybe it's just weird!!!! ]

[save_the_souls]

No...it's actually a fleet of ships. You were probably on their main ship until it was time for their- [What was the term again?] shuffle.

[sugoooi]

that was that lady speaking right? who is she? I never saw anyone inside the other one. it was totally deserted

[save_the_souls]

I think her name is Diamond. Besides that, we're not really sure who she is- no one's seen her yet.

I'm sorry. I know this all must be very disorienting. I wish I had more answers for you.

[sugoooi]

hey um

is everyone so calm about this place? like I'm sort of freaked out but that Henry guy just kept laughing.

[save_the_souls]

Um. Well, I don't know Henry, so I can't speak on his behalf as to why he's laughing. I certainly don't think it's a laughing matter. [But maybe it's Henry's way of coping! Or maybe he's just a psychopath! Whose to say] And it's completely understand that you're freaked out! I would be too!

It's just...this isn't exactly the first time for a lot of us something like this happened.

[sugoooi]

huh

[save_the_souls]

I'm sorry. I know that's not very comforting.

I'm Allen. What's your name?

[sugoooi]

I'm Sam. what do you mean you guys did this before?

[save_the_souls]

It's nice to meet you, Sam.

And well, for me- when I was about 15, I was snatched and taken to a place called Paradisa in another world than my own. Apparently whatever brought me would snatch all sorts of people from all sorts of worlds so it could feed on our emotions.

[Leaving out the part about it being a sentient castle because well, the story's weird enough and Sam's already freaked]

[sugoooi]

Wait you went to another WORLD? like in comic books??
