Who: EVERYBODY
Broadcast: Maybe
Action: Lone Breaker System
When: The fleet will be in this system from 3/10 to 4/14




Welcome to the Lone Breaker System. The planet consists of a single ghost town that replenishes its stock daily, and a desert that does not. There are quite a few points of interest, no consequences, and a mystery to be investigated!

More system info is here!

a. surge-scoping

[After a couple of times staying up to watch the strange power surge that seems to herald the 'reset' of this place, something about it snags at Thor's attention. The problem is, it happens once a day in a split second. It's going to take some time and patience to figure out.

Every night Thor heads to the roof of a house or building and sits there, waiting. He keeps his sword at his side despite the utter lack of any reason to use it. When the power fluctuation hits, he straightens up quickly and looks in a certain direction ... then gets to his feet and cuts an 'X' into the rooftop before leaping down to the ground below. It won't stick longer than a day, but that's okay. It's enough to mark where he was and figure out where to watch from the next night. In this slow, frustrating way, he edges towards the north-east.]


b. shops

[When Thor's not spending the night on his weird task, he's checking out the shops for things to take. He has zero issues with just taking whatever he wants; he might have a strong sense of right and wrong, but he's more than willing to bend it when it suits him.

In the grocery store he can be found stocking up on coffee (a blessing) and eyeing off the canned meat with suspicion (it's just wrong). In the clothing stores he checks out all the wares, much more satisfied with the sizes here than some of the other worlds they've been to.

He does strip off his current shirt to try on whatever he's looking at right in the middle of the store, so. There is that.]


c. wildcard

[Anything else? Hit me up.]

[ On one of his outings to stock the ship, Carl runs into Thor deliberating over a can of.. something. Spam, maybe. He wrinkles his nose and shakes his head. ]

I wouldn't if I were you.
rebuildyourruins: (They have the internet on computers now.)

[Of all the dubious things in this town, the spam can ranks... well, maybe in the top five. Thor glances up from his deliberations over the thing when Carl speaks up.]

No, I don't think I would anyway. What is it meant to be?

[That's the part he can't work out.]

It looks like Spam.. It's a really weird meat. I'm not really sure what it's supposed to be made of. It kinda looks like ham and smells like death.

Old people like to slice it up and fry it. [ His dad likes spam, but he's a fuckin' weirdo. ]

[What the Fuck. Thor glances back at the can and just... puts it back on the shelf.]

None of that sounds like how meat should be. Why would anyone bother with it when there's better fare?

I don't know. Sometimes there's not a choice, but if there is? Literally anything else is preferred.

I don't think these people were lacking in choices.

[If the grocery store is anything to go by, there are hundreds of other options. Though that still begs the question of why spam.]

Meat shouldn't be canned in the first place. It's just... weird.

Hey, I'm not arguing that. It's really weird! And probably filled with weird, alien preservatives.
rebuildyourruins: (Well when you put it that way.)

[personal profile] rebuildyourruins 2018-03-30 09:14 am (UTC)(link)
Not everything alien is weird, you know.

[Says the literal space viking.]

And if they have spam on Earth, then I'd call that equally weird.

Well I know that much. Earth is pretty damn weird sometimes, too.

..Yeah, that exists.
rebuildyourruins: (And make history.)

[personal profile] rebuildyourruins 2018-04-02 04:14 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, I know.

[At least someone gets it. Earth regularly confuses him, though he's gotten much better at accepting those things for what they are.]

Then you have my condolences.
