Who: Sora
Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action: Bishop
When: After the Shuffle

Hello everyone. I'm Sora. [He pauses for a moment, as he has to shove aside the urge to introduce Goofy and Donald too. They aren't here with him. He's in this by himself for now. At least there are good people here too.]

I just arrived. I was assigned to the Bishop's security team. Which, uh, I don't think they need a ton of help in that area... [I mean, have you seen the person in charge of Bishop's security?]

But I still want to make sure I do my best to help my crew! The, uh, chip in my head [He talks about it like he still isn't sure what it is or what it does or if he should be worried about it] gives me the basics I need, but any pointers you have to share would be awesome.

Any tips to survive out here in general too. Let me hear them!

[She stubbornly refuses Sora you can't make her]

Then this should be a learning experience, as you are likely without them now.

[That...came out a bit harsher than she'd intended. Which is saying something, really- mostly about the fact she even noticed at all, and actually tried to soften it a bit with something a little more reassuring.]

If it is any consolation, they will not notice you've left. And should you ever find your way home, not even you will remember leaving. Everything will continue as it was.

[It's true that he's without them now, and he really doesn't want to dwell so much on that thought. They're still with him, in his heart.]

I know... [He starts, a little more somber.] But this is a chance to meet new people, and make new friends. People I wouldn't have a chance to meet otherwise.

Though it is reassuring to know that the people back home won't miss me. I am not sure how any of that works, but I've been told that's what happens, so I guess I'll go with it for now.

It is. On all points.

[Though as great as having friends and people she could rely on was- and really, she missed a good number of people by now- Looma wasn't about to get sentimental about it. For one thing it would take too much effort at the moment, but pride was a not insignificant factor there as well.]

None of us know how it works. Or why it works- only that it does. I know at least three who've gone home and returned in some way or another. They describe the same experience.

[She has yet to get that sort of perk, though. And she's long since given up on it happening, at least not until anyone can find some way to actually leave willingly.]

Have you had time to explore the ship?

A bit. I checked out the cockpit, and my room - obviously. [That's where he is right now.]

Oh! And the kitchen.

You know, the important places.

And the armory? Regardless of whether or not you intend to use anything inside, caring for it is as much your job as mine now.

[She'll leave her own opinion about how that's the most important place out of it. Also the part where she thinks everything in it is complete garbage.]

Oh.... right!

I should go there right away, then. Shouldn't I?

If for no other reason than to learn where it is. You should have a weapon there as well.

[And no, it's definitely not the one you're hoping for, buddy. Sorry.]

I can take you now, or wait a while longer. Until you're settled.

[And honestly, even as drained as she looks, she's probably got more than enough stubbornness to just bulldoze her way through a full technical breakdown of everything in there if she thought it was necessary. Sleep was for people not so belligerently stubborn in their determination to do whatever they please that it very nearly qualifies as an actual superpower.]

No, I'd like to go right now. Especially if you're willing to show me.
