Who: Alucard + You
Broadcast: Yes!
Action: SS Red Fish
When: Right now!

[ broadcast. ]

[ when alucard woke up, he saw metal and wondered briefly if he was trapped in another coffin. but clarity comes soon after and he notices the bright, strange lights. similar to the kind that reside in his father's castle but . . . better developed. smoother, even. alucard rises into the air before letting his feet touch the ground. strange as this may seem, alucard isn't one to panic. answers will come and he will find them. at the very least, this does not seem to be his father's work.

one could consider that a mercy.

after some time, alucard finally finds the communicator and manages to turn it on. people would notice immediately that he is extremely pale and handsome. they would also notice he's bare chested. when he speaks, it's polite and soft. ]


Greetings.

[ a pause as alucard wonders if it is working. still he forges on. ]

I seem to be missing a few of my clothes. Particularly my shirt. Where might I find some?

Given the other capabilities they've shown, I'm not entirely certain what the Atroma are. But I am sure they are not serving the Divine Dragon, and being put on display like a captive beast does not make me comfortable.

...With that said, they allow us to live comfortably for the most part, and we're rarely forced into awareness of said audience.

It could be worse, and since we don't seem to have any way of confronting them about it... [He shrugs.]

This ship's kitchen is fairly well-stocked in comparison to others, although most of our food stores are still rations of one kind or another. There's also a medical facility, which I have charge of, if you find yourself wounded or ill.

[Libra shakes his head.] The ship has shuttles, but they can't travel far, and none of us know what direction 'home' might be found in.

One of the capabilities the Atroma apparently demonstrate is the ability to return people to exactly when and where they belong, when they grow bored of us. Those who arrive from the same world never seem to note the absence of others who have been taken. Your madman won't have time to accomplish anything dire without you there to stop him.

And you're far from the only one looking.

[A gentle smile, clearly trying to lighten the mood a little bit.] I think that overview covers our situation, for the most part. If you'd like to ask about anything in more detail, I'll do my best to answer.

I believe there is a forge on the Iskaulit, the larger ship which holds most of the common areas shared by the Fleet as a whole. I'm not sure who maintains it, but you might be able to inquire after a weapon there.

You're most welcome.

I'll leave you to get settled, but by all means don't hesitate to ask if there's anything else you need. All of us are in this together, for better or worse.
