Twin Roses Mingle (visitors welcome)

[passingthrough]

Who: Twin Roses’ crew, friends, and lookieloos
Broadcast: Unlikely
Action: Twin Roses
When: March 2019

[Not much has changed on the Twin Roses since their stay on the Marsiva. No crew changes. No promotions or downgrades, although Vash is no longer co-captain, but rather first mate, in case anyone missed it and Krolia is still somewhat new among their ranks.

There aren’t even any stale donuts lying around which also means the plants in the garden and pets are thriving and their food stocks are still going strong. Yep, just totally normal stuff after being gone over a month! And probably no weird things to talk about after seeing each other’s memories. Business as usual here!

Also, there was the part where they attacked the Marsiva afterward for a hot minute. Just another normal day in the life of the fleet.]

[ Sara is readdyyyyy to be back on this ship. it'll never be her ship, but it's familiar, and has significantly fewer people ]

Home sweet home-ish.

Kitty Pryde | OTA

[passingthrough]

Ship wandering
[In the days that follow their return you can find Kitty...everywhere. That first moment when you realize nothing was damaged in their time way it's great. In the moments that follow it's deeply unsettling. So she finds herself going from room to room checking and rechecking for anything that might give away that the ship noticed the passage of time. There's something about it that echos a little too strongly of her time in MarinaNova Asylum. Things were constantly reset to normal there. Made a lot of sense to when they found out it was all just a shared virtual reality. She's always wondered if this place was the same on a much larger scale. So, she might be looking through cabinets in the kitchen or checking behind storage crates in the cargo bay or examining the controls in the shuttles or even knocking on your door to see if she can look at your room too. She thought about just slipping in herself, but she didn't. Points for that?]

Aftermath
[As their drifting period extends she settles back into her more normal routine working in engineering and at the Iskaulit in the Malum. Reading books, training, and having a certain boy in a red jacket spend nights over at her place with the big bed which wasn't really a thing before calibrations. She was mostly spending nights in his room with the small bed. Her direwolf forever-pup roams the ship with her sometimes. It's kind of nice getting back to what passes for normal. And also, a lot of people saw a lot of stuff in her head and she in theirs and there is shit to talk about. Anyone want to point to an elephant in the room and talk about it?]

Vision's Receptionist
[Since Vision is otherwise occupied (if you know what we mean) he has routed his calls briefly to Kitty. She will no doubt handle it in the most professional way possible at all times. Please reach out and touch someone.]

Wildcard
[Whatever. Whenever. We're meant to be together.]

The Vision - Action, OTA

[unbearablynaive]

[In the first few minutes after they arrive on the ship, the Vision hastens to use their laser cannon to shoot at the Marsiva. While he's leery of hurting the potential consciousness inside, he also recognizes it as a unique opportunity, and knows they must awaken it somehow. Perhaps this can be the equivalent of slapping it awake.

After, he quickly inspects the ship and his Engineering segment. Everything seems to be all right, but he'll do an in-depth check a little later. For now, he disappears into his room and isn't to be seen or heard from for the next day. All calls to his communicator are redirected to Kitty during this timeframe - and, since he's asked several people to check in, it might be getting some significant traffic. Sorry, Captain.

Once that's taken care of, though, he's back, in a good mood, and found all over the place, inspecting everything from his plants to his fish to the general facilities and food stores. He'll strike up conversation with crew and visitors alike, if they approach him.]

Remy LeBeau | OTA

[cajunspice]

[Getting back to the Twin Roses was good, just for being back in his own space, with a better food stock, and most importantly, getting to see his terrible trio of cats again who he had greatly missed while away. Others may be more cautious, but he’s just happy to be back.

Or for the most he is. While Remy does try to get right back into his normal routine around the ship and also setting up the Space Bar for business again, he certainly is in a poor mood over the next week or so. It’s not due to what they had just been through, for all the drama their little dreams had, he can’t really remember them. So sorry if someone has had some sort of revelation thanks to him or emotional growth or fall back, he won’t remember it happening.

No, he’s angry over what had happened once they were back on their ships, the attack against the Marsiva. Give him time and he will go from being furious, to annoyed and pouty, to getting over it. While he does so he will be found about the ship, cooking in the kitchen for himself and others, training in the storage area, playing with his cats in his room and around the activity area, just trying to act like everything is normal and he’s not upset.]

PRIVATE PARTY - Kitty / Vision / Wanda

[passingthrough]

[Kitty started with a quick text message over the communicator to both of them to see if they had some time and could meet with her. It was probably a little strange that she requested to meet in their room, but she wanted privacy and their shared quarters are larger than most personal rooms. But the biggest reason is just that she wants Wanda to be somewhere she's comfortable, because the thing she's about to ask isn't going to be easy.

She gives their door a knock and waits.

She's not sure what she's going to say. She wants to be honest in as few words as possible. It might be better to wait until they're at the next system, but it's hard to say when or what kind of place the next one will be or even if those places are more secure. The augments are always in their heads after all and if any part of the reality show premise is to be believed there's no way they aren't recording everything that happens in the various systems. Even this plan might not be safe, but some people took great pains to share information with her in as covert a way as they could and she wants to return the favor. But it means she needs Wanda to do it.]

Makie | OTA-ish to all

[therewerefifty]

[She's not officially back on the ship's roster yet-- may need some help with that-- but that doesn't stop Makie from moving right back in anyway. What's left of her belongings are here, and after the Marsiva she'd rather just be back amongst people who are at the very least comfortable to her, if not outright friends.

...not that you'll see much of her. She's avoiding the common areas, though one can still find her visiting either the med lab or sneaking into the kitchen to get some tea. It's not you guys, it's her. Over the next couple months she'll probably get a little more sociable, but now she has a disease to treat and it sucks.]
