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.]

[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...]

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

You look right at home!

[theboogieman]

[FIRST he takes a step back from her sudden, grinning self.

and then he... scratches his head, looking back out at the crowd. one eyebrow slightly raised. he's practically emoting. it's really bizarre.]

[aberrant_type]

[He is emoting! It's great! :D Look at that!]

Maybe we should leave you here, huh?

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

[theboogieman]

[he shakes his head. don't leave him here. the dust is going to stick to his face.]

[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!

[aberrant_type]

[She blinks at him in surprise, because she wasn't actually expecting something that resembled a serious answer... then she laughs and gives him a friendly whack on the shoulder.]

I suppose you can come with us after all!

[birdsbirdsbirds]

Yeah, I have water. Though I think it's actually only mildly dangerous.

[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]

keep that stuff with you it'll save your life!
I saw it in a movie once you need to throw it on any dangerous aliens that want to eat your brains.
10000% guaranteed to work.
make sure it's with you when things start to go south.

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! :>

[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. ]

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. ]

[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~

[wilder]

[Oh lovely. A cheerful one. Kaneis stops and frowns a little when this guy he's never spoken to waves to him. He doesn't have orange skin- so he must be part of the fleet. Maybe he just has a question]

Need something?

[carreau]

Mm, not really~ It's just kind of boring here with no one to talk to.

[ Yes, on a planet full of people, no one to talk to. ]

[wilder]

[oh nope nope nope. Not going down this road]

...There's a whole city of people here. Most of them thrilled to talk.

[carreau]

They don't really matter~

[ Might sound like he means conversation-wise, but it's more "in general." ]

Don't you think so?

[wilder]

[...]

Get lost.

[And he's walking off in another direction sjklsdkf]

[carreau]

[ Followiiiiiiing. ]

Eh? What's wrong?

[wilder]

I'm not interested in talking. Better to find someone else.

[carreau]

So what are you doing instead~?
