Who: Mirage Jenius + you!
Broadcast: Yes
Action: SS Starduck
When: Today!
ACTION;
[Frankly the amount of time Mirage gets on the SS Marsiva is far too short for even the beginnings of an introduction to this whole space show business. She wakes up in her bunk and immediately understands this isn't the dorms and isn't even the Macross Elysion or anything like that. Wherever she is she was plucked straight from her VF unit, flight suit and all.
So this starts right out as a recon mission in her mind. However she ended up here she's alone and has to find her own way back. She's barely stepped out of her room with a grimly serious expression, noting the people just walking through the hallways like it's no big deal she's standing out here.
And then woosh, she's ... being covered in confetti?
There's music?
Mirage is just sort of stuck in place, eyes wide and expression befuddled. And then she makes out her first disbelieving words to any gathered crew there.]
... Pudding?
[What's going on here?!]
VIDEO;
[Alright, so things have been explained. Sort of? There's a ship and a fleet and some kind of show, that much she's gathered by now. She's been several hours roaming the SS Starduck and getting to know it's general layout, in particular where the shuttles are stored and such.
Now she's getting down to communicating across the other ships, a need to test the system being her primary excuse. She's wearing a stern, no nonsense expression here.]
I have been briefed on my current status and situation. [And now maybe just a touch angrier in tone.] I don't exactly appreciate this sort of treatment but--
[Ahem. Stay focused, Mirage. Treat this like a report or something similar, anger won't do much good.
She sighs out loud.]
My name is Mirage Jenius. Currently I am stationed aboard the SS Starduck. If there are others here from the Xaos company or the Macross Elysion, please respond.
[... How do you end one of these broadcasts? Mirage's stern expression briefly falters, a moment of confusion peeking through. Observant eyes will catch the tips of her ears reddening just slightly before she rushes through the rest.]
Thank you very much. Over and out.

[How is that possible? Did whoever brought them here - and now her - conceal it from everyone?]
no subject
No... The people who brought us here don't exactly tell us much of anything. We just... float around, until we get to new systems. None of them have been familiar to anyone here, and I'm pretty sure we're all in some completely other universe anyway.
Sorry, I wish I had better news for you.
no subject
It's not your fault. Whatever sort of game is being played here is obviously by someone with a great deal of power if they can affect several people.
[... That brings up a question.]
How many ships and people would you say were here?
no subject
Well, there are fourteen ships like this one. Then there's the Marsiva, which is the one that pulls us everywhere. And the Iskaulit, which is like... a huge ship, with a bunch of things on it. Like places to eat! And gardens, and a swimming pool, a library... Um, a lot of things!
As for people? I think there's maybe a hundred - I've never counted, but there's a list on the network, at least.
no subject
That sounds like a shopping mall.
[... Hm. Though with the gardens, swimming pool and library... her brow furrows.]
Or a community center.
[Why would kidnappers have so many accommodations?]
no subject
[ ... ! Wait! ]
Oh--! I could show you around here, too! Since this is where you're, um, stationed - is that the word? [ Enh, it works. ] I know it's a lot all at once, but if you need anything, I'm happy to help however I can, okay?
no subject
I wouldn't be pulling you away from your duties, would I?
no subject
Not at all! ... You know, as captain, maybe it's actually part of my duties to give tours? [ SHRUG! ] Ahah... things are a little weird here, if you couldn't tell already...
no subject
Y-you're the captain?
[GAH.]
I'm so sorry! I didn't realize!
[Her whole military life of politeness to commanding officers is crumbling around her.]
no subject
Ahh!! No, no, it's okay! Really! [ Cue some sheepish laughter. ] It's all... really weird, and not very formal, and honestly I'm not exactly captain material, I don't think, this place just kind of made it happen...
[ Doot doot. ]
no subject
[What sort of place has she ended up in? Still, this woman is captain and deserves as much respect regardless of how she got there. So Mirage smiles before offering out a hand.]
It's still a pleasure to serve with you. I'm Mirage Jenius.
