Who: Allura & YOU!
Broadcast: Yes
Action: SS Tourist
When: August 10th - 15th
[ broadcast ★ video ★ 08/10 ]
[ The feed opens up on a bed with one new passenger. Except she's asleep and turning on the bed, which really makes bad television. She mumbles something to herself and dozes right back off, at least for a few more minutes. But when she finally does rouse, she stretches and yawns. It should look very ladylike but she might have some drool dried at the corner of her mouth.
Except it becomes very apparent to her right away that this isn't where she should be. Allura flails and jumps from the bed. ]
What--where is this? Where am I!?
[ Has she been...taken captive? But by whom? She rounds the room, casting a suspicious eye to her surroundings. But something catches her eye which brings her closer to the camera... ]
[ action ★ ss tourist bridge ★ 08/12 ]
[ Well, that was sufficiently embarrassing. Allura grits her teeth as she marches out of the room she awoke in. HS Marsiva? To have anyone play host and keep an ever watchful, ever prying gaze is unsettling, to say the least. She also rather doesn't fancy being some sort of captive or wayward traveler. There is much left to accomplish where she should be.
Fists clenched at her sides, she marches onward to find a different deck. When one of the automatic doors slides open, she nearly collides with the person on the other side. She's angry.
And then suddenly no longer on the Marsiva. Enveloped in a pool of light, Allura feels herself move in and out of time in space in the span of a few seconds. What was once a corridor is now the bridge of an entirely different ship--
SS Tourist.
She should be happy about the confetti that comes with her arrival, but really.
Allura is unimpressed. ]
Quiznak, I am already very tired of this!
[ action ★ ss tourist kitchen ★ 08/15 ]
[ The past few days on the SS Tourist ave been enlightening in a number of ways, and frustrating in many others. She tries to keep herself in high spirits and take things one day at a time, but she has yet to make much progress in returning to the Castle.
Food is important, however, but Allura is unfamiliar with much of the cuisine on the ship. She kind of misses her food goo.
She squints as she leans forward to read some of the menu offerings. ]
..."PB Sandwich"? What is that?

no subject
Whatever you feel comfortable with. "Allura" is fine as well.
[ She steps forward to take a better look around. ]
How many are on this ship?
no subject
Other than you and I? Captain Kirk, Daryl, and Anders, who is currently in a coma. That happens with some frequency--comas in general, I mean, not Anders being in a coma specifically. Also four cats.
no subject
[ Other than this Anders who is unfortunately indisposed. Not a large crew by any means, but she's worked with less.
And...cats. Okay. She had mice before, so no judging. ]
So not many. Where is the Captain? I feel I should introduce myself.
no subject
no subject
What do you mean?
no subject
[This ship is a mess, h e l p].
no subject
[ Yes.
Yes it is. ]
I...see.
[ Welp. Welcome to the Tourist, Allura. ]
Then I suppose you are the only one working right now.
no subject
[He assumes. Daryl can be an elusive creature.]
But I'm very capable of operating the ship alone, this is fine.
this poor boy
poor allura as well
[Besides cleaning up the confetti. Thanks, Atroma.]
What is your augment?
they will get through this together
[ Augment? Yet, somehow, she instinctively knows. ]
--pilot. I can pilot this ship.
they can hold the disastership together
Perfect! If anything should happen, that's a good augment to have. ...Not that anything will happen.
[There have only been, like, three major disasters in the last year. Odds are good that they'll be fine.]
I am sorry that you have come aboard at such a... er, interesting time.
be strong, guys
I think I've had quite enough "happenings" for one light cycle.
[ Major disasters would be very unwelcome. ]
I'm not sure I can say I had anything to expect otherwise, but...thank you. This place has proven to be full of surprises.
no subject
[Or else Allura's going to be disappointed with a lot more happenings.]
Not all of the surprises will be bad. The Atroma are always awful, but most people in the fleet are friendly [by Pavel's definition of 'friendly,' which tends to be more generous than most] and some of the systems that we visit are pleasant.
no subject
[ Which makes perfect sense, doesn't it? ]
That is nice to hear, I suppose.
[ Though the way she exhales sharply through her nose indicates she may need some time to get used to the idea. ]
As this ship been on autopilot, then?
no subject
[Yeah, he still has no idea, but Allura has obviously had A Day and doesn't need to be quizzed on units of measurement.]
It has been, yes. The ships follow the Marsiva if no one pilots them... and they come back to the Marsiva if they're piloted away, I believe.
no subject
[ She steps further onto the bridge, looking over the controls. It's strange that they look so foreign and yet she knows exactly how to approach them. ]
Does that mean we may go where we wish, now?
no subject
no subject
[ That comes as a surprise. ]
no subject
[Usually. There are a bunch of complications that leaving might entail, but...]
The problem is that no one knows where home is. In other universes, probably, and none of these ships have the capacity to travel to another universe.
no subject
[ There's a long pause, then Allura gives a nod. ]
Then it is my promise to you that if we are able to break through the barrier that separates this universe from the others, i will assist you in returning to yours.
no subject
That's actually kind of touching? Usually he's the one making the unlikely promises. Being on the other end of it is nice.]
Thank you, and I promise to help you do the same.
