Who: ANYONE!
Broadcast: ANYTHING!
Action: Probably either on or around the October planet!
When: Within the first couple of days that the planet shows up.

[holy shit you guys there is a planet, like, an actual planet now. what are you gonna do? get out and look? marvel at the locals? search for aliens? stand around your ship and questioning every life choice you've made up until this point? hang around in orbit because planets are for squares?

this is mostly for early stuff, so please feel free to make your own posts in the next couple of weeks with more planet (or station, or ship!) shenanigans.]

Oh, it's gonna start out okay.

First they're gonna be all nice to us, be all happy to see us.

But then it's gonna get weird.

And then it's gonna get creepy.

And then they're gonna be using us for ritual sacrifice or planting aliens in our chest cavities!!






Nah I'm kidding it'll probably be fine.

[also, Robin is on the planet making sure that his ship is safely parked, not running off to go meet the locals yet. his hair is bone white right now so that's kind of a thing if you want to go bother him.]

uh oh, sounds like a pretty dangerous situation!
do you have water????

actionnnn

[amarant]

[ ...wow, someone sure looks different.

It's not her, she is taking full advantage of this blending in thing. Because she does not want extra attention. ]

...is that you, Robin?

[carreau]

that sounds fun! :>

[parkinglotangel]

[Michael leans against the doorframe of whatever room Robin is in at the moment. He's just wearing the fleet coveralls today, his wings out. He mostly only does that on the ship.]

So what happened to you?

[And if he has an idea that is has something to do with what happened over the network the other day, he's not saying.

[limitstorm]

[ after getting everything into place, riku hops out of the ship, grimacing at the dust cloud that appears underneath his feet. ]

That's not good... [ but he looks over to robin, and even though riku's got pretty bad eyesight, he blankly stares.

that's not... right. he looks away, rubs the heels of his hands against his eyes, before looking back at robin., and then moves over, slowly, still squinting. ]

Robin?

/tags very belatedly????

[payback]

[You know, she was looking to chat with him because she wanted to ask for some stuff... but this is very distressing. She comes to a stop at a respectable distance and squints at that hair.]

Robin?

[theboogieman]

[Zhas can be found planet-side! He ditched the ship pretty fast, went out dressed up in full skullface makeup and everything, but he was not expecting... to find a whole bunch of people also dressed up in skull facepaint?

SO ANYONE CAN FIND HIM hanging around the city, looking increasingly confused as people pass him by, say hello, and compliment his face.

guess he's found his people...]

[aberrant_type]

[wHERE DID SHE COME FROM and does it even matter when she just popped up, grinning?]

You look right at home!

[blindoptimism]

[nooners was originally going to stay and watch the ship, but once it was clear that it could be left securely, and auto-pilot safely guided them to the surface... It wouldn't hurt to join the others in exploring, right? So probably after Zhas has been there for a few hours, he might spot Nunnally. She looks painfully out of place, but she looks relieved to see one familiar face behind face paint. She waves and rolls her chair over his way]

I almost didn't see you. Hello!

action

[carreau]

[ This dude looks a bit different than all the other folks on this planet-- maybe the hair, maybe the less-than-orange skin...who knows. Either way, someone is approaching. Be afraid. ]

Hey, hey, yours looks really good~ Did you get one of them to paint your face for you?

[ Oh no, he's annoying. ]

[sugoooi]

[ YEAH ACTUALLY DUDE YOU KINDA FIT RIGHT IN... When Sam sees him he literally just assumes Zhas is one of the aliens from this planet because that make-up kinda hides his skin colour and all that...herp. So he winds up trying to wave him down when he catches him on one of the streets, arm up in the air and everything. ]

Hey...! Hey, um...! Excuse me! Do you know the way back to the place with all the shops and stuff, I kinda think I took a wrong turn...

[wilder]

[Okay, so the Wonderduck may have experienced a bit of a rough landing. What? It was his first time landing on a planet and that turbulence was insane! But other than your stuff getting knocked around and maybe some space-sickness- you guys should be alright.]

[Once that's landed and squared away, Kaneis decided to leave the ship to venture out and explore the town. The first day, he can easily be found wandering around the settlement- either checking out the festival or seeing about ways to earn some money or information. As usual, he seems more prone to keeping to himself.]

[Though sometimes, you might catch him in one of the shops breaking that loner act - instead he seems to be cheerfully flirting and charming the female shopkeepers into giving him discounts and free stuff.]

[What? It's legit]

[carreau]

[ There is someone......watching you. How unnerving.

Well, kind of. But he's not really doing anything. Except for the part when he greets Kaneis outside one of the shops, waving. ]

Hey, hey~ You seem to really know your way around here! You must be a really fast learner~

[limitstorm]

[ kaneis is not the only one to keep to himself; riku tries to stay away from most.

he's far more of a people watcher, after all--so while he notes that kaneis is around, he doesn't stop to talk. what's really weird is that he can't quite feel what he usually would from this world. no heart, no... nothing. he's not even sure if there's real magic here, and that's weird.

either way, he's decided to silently peruse the shops, just to see if there's anything useful... of course, when he spots kaneis at the front of the shop, he's a little confused. even moreso when he's flirting. as the shopkeeper turns around to fix something upon the shelves, he makes a rather pointed "what are you doing?" look straight at him. ]

[amarant]

[ If you're out and about and enjoying the attention from random strangers.......well, that makes one of us. Luckily, someone happens to have just the way to avoid all those pesky alien folks.

Though it was purely by accident.

However, if she sees someone that looks...well, not from here/someone she recognizes, she'll wave them over to where she's sitting outside one of the cafes, a small stack of books on one of the other chairs at the table.

Hey, at least there's a chair open for you. ]

[sugoooi]

[ You know that invitation would be a little more inviting if it weren't coming from someone with an actual skull for a head.....

Sam's a little unsure about this one, jammies or no. ]

[catamite]

[he's been hiding pretty well on his own ship--barely venturing off when parked at waystations and successfully avoiding the network entirely--and had originally been intending on continuing to hide once a new scary planet came into the picture. because wow he is not ready to accept this reality.

but once they're actually parked, and he sees crowds and parties and places to get lost in? it is the call of the wild to him and he slips off the ship as soon as he can.

so now, little elf dude in grimy club-hopping clothes can be found anywhere there is something resembling booze, music, or people worth flirting at. and passengers are even better, so he's also gravitating toward anyone without orange skin. whoo!]

[amarant]

[ Probably not worth flirting at, but here's a familiar face......er, skull. As it were.

Waving him over, this time with no vegetables in tow, if it helps. ]

[osananajimi]

[ makoto hasn't left the wonderduck yet. what with the combined events of their shoddy landing and the fact that they are on another planet, she's feeling a little unsure of herself still. makoto is plenty well equipped (or so she thinks) to handle things of many sorts, but this isn't exactly a situation she's prepared for or even really read about in a non-fiction sort of way.

that all being said, she's only just arrived on this ship. life is very confusing.

so you may catch her pacing around, giving an odd stare at those who are voluntarily leaving to explore so easily. ]

[wilder]

[He's sorry about the shoddy landing okay! It was his first time landing! But not long after they landed, he's already got a bag with him as he starts to cross the cargo bay to leave- when he notices her pacing and staring]

Uh...haha, you okay?

[proteusmoon]

[ As far as she knows, it's just her and Kaneis now, so when Cecil finally gets to leave the armory and venture outside the ship a little, finding someone else on the bridge is nothing short of startling, to say the least.

And it's doubly shocking when she realizes it's a familiar someone else, even.

Cecil can't believe her eyes. She blinks several times and squints at the form of the young woman pacing nervously back and forth like a cat trapped at the edge of more water than she's willing to get involved with, trying to force herself out of whatever fatigue-induced hallucination she's having. When it seems that, no, she actually isn't imaging this at all, she slowly approaches the girl. ]

Makoto...?

[heresyandlace]

[Tek hasn't been on any other ship yet, so exploring while they're all parked and their crews are out to play seems like a wonderful idea. he's not really expecting anyone to still be hanging around inside them.

so, he looks a little surprised when he rounds a corner and spots her pacing]

...Oh. Hello there.

[have an absurdly pretty man with lavender eyes and fine clothes--that are starting to get a bit rumpled by now--smiling at you, makoto]

[birdsbirdsbirds]

[okay... well... to be perfectly honest, Robin shouldn't be dicking around with other people's ships, but he gets curious and nosy and someone didn't really lock their door.

so this pale, tallish guy with a lot of black clothes and (currently) ghost-white hair sticks his head into the ship to see who's home!]

Oy, hey! Left the door wide-open...!

Locked to Tek and Robin

[birdsbirdsbirds]

[sneaking this in here... after bothering him a little on the network, Robin had finally asked that they meet up on the planet somewhere! he figures it's time they... had a talk, and he'd really like to try and do something nice with him to brush away all of the really horrible things that have been happening between them lately.

maybe it's the things Tek did in his head, or maybe he really did deserve to get shot in the head... or, dare he think it, maybe he's finally got a good grip on how Tek thinks... whatever the reason for it, he's not as nervous or upset as he should be. actually, after talking to Rin, he barely feels upset at all...]

[heresyandlace]

[and really, that sort of thinking works out for everyone, because Tek isn't particularly repentant about it.

Tek is dressed well, of course... which amounts to him wearing the exact same thing he arrived in, since he doesn't have anything else. but his face is done up nice, so there's that, at least.

when he finally spots Robin, he doesn't hurry or announce himself. he'll amble over with as much nonchalance as he can, leaving plenty of time for Robin to react or make whatever kind of first move he's feeling like. he'd like room to observe and judge before he gets too close.]
