Action: SS Caprine Kitchen
When: Today

[There were a number of apple-like fruits laid out in a large bowl. Death reaches over to pick one up and turned it over in his bony fingers before grabbing a perfectly ordinary looking table knife. He made a nearly imperceptible nick in the flesh and began separating it from the rest of the fruit. As the single peel began to inch its way downward, one might see there is not a sliver of excess fruit attached to it. It was as clean as a fruit peel could ever hope to be.

Poppy's paw flashed over the screen. She hit a few buttons and managed to trigger a filter that gave her and Death motion tracking flower crowns. Then she hit it again and a falling glitter effect was put into effect as well. Death crooked a finger at her and she move. Tiny paws padded across the table until she could lay down invitingly at her master's side. She pawed at his sleeve and began to purr loudly.]

PLAYING WITH THE CAMERA AGAIN? [He leans over and his fingers, in spite of their lack of flesh, trigger some button on the screen. Death is once more in his most natural state. He waves at the camera before returning to his task.] IT WILL BE A FRUIT PIE TODAY. THEY TAKE A BIT OF TIME TO COOK AND COOL, BUT THE RESULTS ARE WELL WORTH THE PATIENCE. THERE WILL BE AN EXPERIMENT, THOUGH. I AM GOING TO ATTEMPT TO FLAVOR THE FILLING WITH VANILLA AND LEMON. RESEARCH SEEMS TO SUGGEST THEY COMPLIMENT EACH OTHER.

When: Jan 12 or whenever...time doesn't matter

Veronica has been rather absent this holiday season. While she's made an appearance at the festivities, she hasn't really seemed all there, and has left early from most of them without talking much. For a girl whose life has changed so much so fast, even before the Fleet, one might think it would be easy for her to roll with the punches, but eventually, Veronica tires out, and she's hit that point.

She misses home. She's lonely. Sure, she has Lance here, but much of his time is dedicated to Keith and his team, and Veronica isn't about to take that away from him. He's happy. She isn't going to get in the way of that. While she's befriended people here, it just isn't the same, and she finds herself growing homesick and depressed.

She's spending a lot of time these days just sitting by the bay windows of the Iskaulit, looking out into the deep abyss of space. It's beautiful, and she really does love it, but...it's so cold and isolating. It makes her think of everything that she's lost, all the people who have died for a war that they were never even meant to be a part of... Veronica hugs her knees to her chest and just watches.

Action: Red Fish
When: NOW after Flug gets back on his feet

"Greetings Red Fish, this is your captain speaking!"

[And fresh from the medical ward, if the IV drip Flug is sporting is anything to go by. His goggles glint with mischievous glee as he steps away from his desk to reveal a seemingly inoccuous dial adjacent to the hallway doorframe.]

"Presenting Red Fish's prototype teleportation and travel station! Through these terminals I have installed, long trips of carrying heavy cargo, escaping potential threats and lengthy evacuation procedures are a thing of the past! With the turn of this dial, many doorways are now interchangeable! Just remember the terminals will only recognize you and a specific amount of mass your space occupies. Should you need you to add a guest or adjust these parameters simply report to me."

[Or just adjust them yourself through the terminal at the bridge; it's easy enough to identify through the copious amount of sticky note instructions Flug plasters over everything. But hey, he likes to feel important.]

"Observe!"

[And suddenly Flug strides into the kitchen... along with the potted plant from his room which also came along for no discernable reason. ]

"...Occasionally some bugs may occur"

[Private network]
[As useful as the teleporters were, having a side project helped provide good cover up for the other collaborative effort the fleet got up to. Ensuring all lights and cameras are off Flug boots up a different device...]

Initiating beta test protocol.. two.. three.. please respond. I trust everything is still operating efficiently?

OOC: Teleporters on Red Fish! You didn't ask for them, you might not even want them; regardless you now have them! As expected of something cobbled together from a junkyard, they are prone to malfunctions; maybe sometimes you'll wind up in a different room than the one you intended or perhaps your tiny stereo likes to turn on and off randomly when the signals get crossed. It's yours to play with as you please! With that, I am officially back from hiatus. Fluggyboy collapsed after working too hard If you would like to assume you have helped him (in building or forcing his ass to get medical care, feel free!) I'm excited to see new faces :> as always feel free to PM or hmu on plurk!

[Crowley can be found behind the bar as normal. Unlike normal, however, he isn't here to give you a stupid time consuming network game, or pose a stupid drinking game or riddle. It's not a day for that kind of thing.

He manages to remain pretty laconic, uncaring - but today he is anything but. He also has a very large bottle of wine he's already half polished off.
]

So, today marks exactly ten years since I last saw home. Not just being here, of course. Adding in all my time in that fucking castle, too. It's a fart in the wind, time-wise, really. I've had longer naps.

[He's always been very vocal about not missing home. Hell is back home, recovering after the near apocalypse and waiting to see if they find him and punish him for what he did. Aziraphale has always been someone who's shown up once in a while, hung about for a bit and then vanished off home again. But...but, it's been an awfully long time since he last saw the angel. And for the first time in a long, long time, he's starting to feel a tug of homesickness.]

...But I guess ten years still counts for something, huh?

He's lying on his bed on the First Breath, the wall behind him carpeted in mismatched beaded curtains and hung with shawls of various colors and patterns. He's wrapped up in a giant rainbow colored feather boa and a shimmery white shirt with his wizard hat decked out in rainbow ribbons and stars - it's a huge mess and he doesn't look like he cares.]

Sooo question for all of you nerds out there: anyone out there have experience with dimensional or planar magic or travel?

Because besides the party - which was totally great - this "drift" thing is boring the shit out of me. I thought about blowing something up just to break up the monotony, but I figured learning something might be a smidge more useful.

When: November 5th

[The screen flicks on and Freya has her boots pressed against the wall with her torso resting against the floor. It's hard to tell which direction gravity is flowing except that her hair spanned around her head in a golden halo.

She's wearing her little red ridding hood costume though only the bright red hood was really visible.]


Remember, remember, the fifth of November.
The gun powder treason and plot.

[She sings the song in a sweet voice that makes it come off as a creepy ring-around-the-rosy type of deal. Freya can't keep the monotone tune up for long before breaking into a warm smile, her light stormy gray eyes glittering as if a sun was peaking out from behind the clouds.]

Couldn't resist that. ANYWAY, I'm calling out because I'm going to go ahead and start a Dungeons and Dragons campaign. I have been making dice but they currently suck! So if anyone has dice let me know or I'm going to just program a random number generator and make people use that. [It's super easy to do with any computer.] So, I'm thinking of ways to make the campaign more interesting to those who are here, so if you're interested but it sounds boring, hit me up anyway. We'll talk.

Who knows, might be fun.

The idea is to have fun. If you aren't going to have fun then- [She waves a hand.] Well, ignore this.

Anywho, that's part 1. Part 2 is about candy. I will eat anything that's left that isn't chocolate. I miss sweet things and I can eat a lot. So if anyone has any, that isn't chocolate, then let me know. I'll take it off your hands.

Also if anyone has pepperoni. It's not a totally random question but related to another conversation.

I think that's all I got right now.

]She flashes the screen a happy smile, flashing her canines in the process.]

Broadcast: Yes
Action: Planetside
When: Today

Action – Planetside Scrapyard
 
It wasn’t at all hard to find people who took a liking to him or Poppy. Death is in the middle of a more organized scrap yard than most, surrounded by the more artistic types. He’s currently fiddling with metal sheets being fitted to a large grill type of device in what are supposed to be flower shapes. Some people just like to mix themes, he supposes. The metal is easy enough to fiddle with by hand, too, although he does make some cursory attempts to use proper tools for the job at hand. Each flower he finishes gets passed off for welding and more welding until the false verdant nature of the grill is deemed acceptable. Death takes a sit back with the other artists and lets them hash out smaller details like delivery. He is joined in his seat by Poppy, who takes to purring loudly as he watches the new gill get rinsed off for its first voyage.
 
Broadcast – Planetside, later in the day
 
Food is a common denominator that brings all together nearly as much as his job or the need to sleep. Death is among people who live for food cooked on a new grill, producing various, slightly singed items fit for a good meal. He has no plate of his own owing to a lack of a stomach, but Poppy gleefully munches on scraps of meat that he breaks up for her convenience. He waves at the feed briefly and turns his hands to petting his cat and reminding her that she is very much loved in all her purring goodness.
 
I LIKE THIS PLANET. THERE IS SO MUCH PEOPLE CAN DO TO TURN METAL INTO SOMETHING ORGANIC AND LIVELY.

Broadcast: no
Action: around Baruut
When: mid-to-late october

a. scrap markets

[Thor hates this planet, honestly. It's like a worse version of Sakaar, somehow, and he wasn't fond of that place to start with. The only upside Thor can see to Baruut so far is that he wasn't immediately captured and enslaved in a fighting arena.

Kind of a back-handed compliment.

But after his stint on the Marsiva and then spending a week looking after a shockingly young Loki, Thor's ready to put that baggage in the backseat and go look around anyway. He has a couple of items he's on the lookout for. It becomes quickly apparent though that finding a decent item is the harder task. The low quality of most wares annoys him and it's not uncommon to find him standing in front of a stall keeper, shaking an item at them and being loudly indignant.]


Yes, I know that it has clear sight, but if it only sees in green then what's the point of it as an eye?

[Is that an eyeball in his hand? .........yep. Unfortunate.]

b. watch for falling debris

[You're out in the junkyards proper, minding your own business. Doing whatever it is you decided to venture into canyons of rubbish to do. A distant yelp and a thud rings out somewhere above you - and you barely have time to look up before a body comes smashing down into the junk a few metres away, sending scrap metal and plastic spraying everywhere.

The 'body' turns out to be a very alarmed, very dazed junkyard thief. They scramble to their feet and run away shrieking, not looking back at you or in the direction they fell from. Should you decide to look up though, you'll see Thor pop up over the top of a hill-sized pile of rubbish a fair distance away. He waves to you and calls out:]


You should be mindful where you step! There are thieves about.

c. wildcard

[Thor can also be found bartering for equipment at shops specialising in spaceship parts, lugging supplies back to the Blue Fish, or throwing his hammer around near the Knorst Cliffs. If you have any other ideas, drop a comment or hit me up on [plurk.com profile] dudemeister.]

Action: At the Wonderduck and gracing your screens ans ears, unfortunately
When: Now! The week of augment glitches


[ Here's Escha, standing in the middle of the Wonderduck lab! She's got a long band of bright red ribbon in her hands, and she looks excited! Very excited! ... Too excited, maybe - is she vibrating? We may never know for certain. ]

Ah! Hello everyone!
[ Escha is talking incredibly fast - her words are practically running together.] We found out a lot of things about the ribbons, because we were doing a bunch of things to them, like putting them through stress, and fire tests, and examining them under lenses, and trying to break down their components-- Ahh, sorry! I got carried away again. But anyway, we wanted to tell you all what we found!

Turns out, they're flame resistant! Um, mostly. I mean, it takes a lot for the to catch fire. Which you wouldn't expect from fabric! So there's got to be more to it than just that, right? Well, that's what we thought, too! And we kept looking into it! And we found out some other amazing stuff!!

"That's right!"

[And just like that, two rubber-clad arms reach to pluck the camera from above, bringing us to the easily recognisable 'face' of Dr. Flug... What is somewhat less recognizable is the fact that he appears to be upside down. He too is talking rather expediently, but well, that's just Flug.]

"And not just fire, electricity In particular! This fabric has a peculiar reaction to electrical currants. Observe!"


[On cue, we cut a piece of the ribbon stretched above an almost taser-like device that flashes brightly, little flashes of light sparking in brilliant patterns.]

"If Atroma doesn't brand us for thieving, I have the mind to test some of these in a few inventions. It could be very useful to have a highly dura--" [He pans to an still smoldering piece of burnt ribbon from an early test.] "MOSTLY durable fabric to use in place of what would usually be a metal alloy's job."

[ She laughs a little, sheepishly, at the ultra-fried ribbon... but then it's back to excitement as she stands on her tip-toes, so the camera catches the very top of her head! ]

I bet we could all do some amazing things with these! They'd be perfect for conducting bridges!

“Or extending battery life--!”

OOC: The ribbon investigating has begun! Want in? We already have Lab Support and Engineer augments covered. Help us investigate-- if you can get a word in! Between Escha's hyperactivity glitch and Flug's misbehaving gravity there may be some issues. Feel free to specify if you want anyone in particular, otherwise you may get either or both (Possibly at the same time!). Threadjacks welcome~

So the thing about trafficking stolen cargo-- not that I'm doing that or saying we should do that-- is, it's pretty pointless to steal something no one wants to buy. I guess it happens, if you don't know what you're getting.

I'm sure there's a black market for ribbon somewhere...

Action - SS Caprine (Kitchen) 

[Death cannot hum, owing to the fact that he lacks fleshy bits of any kind meant to really facilitate such a process. Not that he doesn’t have an impressive baritone, but the closest he can come to is quietly speaking words out loud with rhythmic pauses meant to accompany music.

Passers-by of the kitchen will see him fiddling with long strips of pie crust as he arranges them over the tops of tins containing his latest attempts at baking. Following the success of the fruit pies and tarts and their cookie cousins, he is moving on to pot pies and the cheeky mincemeat.

Naturally, this calls for other forms of experimentation. Poppy nibbles happily on scraps of meat as Death very carefully curves around the strips into an intricate looking spiral. He takes a step back to admire the work and a new poem springs forth from his jaw.]

LAVENDERS BLUE, DILLY DILLY… LAVENDERS GREEN…

Broadcast - Live from the SS Caprine

[The pie is still steaming when he turns on the feed to show how the crust came out. It’s rather intricate for a pie, but his shoulders are the set hump of someone who is quite proud of himself. Poppy climbs his sleeve to get upon his shoulder and meows loudly at the communication device.]

NOT BAD FOR A FIRST TIME TRYING AN ORIGINAL CRUST. I THOUGHT OF SPIRALS FOUND IN NATURE AND ATTEMPTED TO RECREATE THE OVERALL SHAPE.

Broadcast

[The video starts with the camera actually falling. There's some chaos and then the sound of a canine yelping. Everything goes dark like cloth fell on it before you can see again that it's...Biffy's salon? The device has been shifted enough to reveal a wolf trying hard to free itself from what looks like the remains of a suit.

When it sees the device on, it scrambles over and...the recording ends.]



Iskaulit - First day of glitch (Closed to Lyall)

[It's been literally years since Biffy last found he couldn't control his changes. For that reason, he's understandably distressed when he suddenly finds himself changed into a wolf. Quite forcibly! It takes him some time to at least free himself from his clothes enough that he can walk normally, even if it means the remains of what are left still cling to him.

So now he's darting around the Iskaulit with his communicator in his mouth since he really has nowhere else to put it. Which means there's now a distressed chocolate colored (with a delightful red colored marking like a cravat on his chest) wolf wearing torn up clothes running around. This is his first glitch that he's gone through so he's not used to it!]



Iskaulit or Blameless - Rest of the glitch period

[Well, he's stuck like this. After the first day of stress now he's just resigned to the fact that he's stuck like this until this place will let him change. So usually he can be found on the Blameless or the Iskaulit. Just wandering mostly to get the energy out of his system since he can't open up his shop while he's like this.

But really it's just him moping. Flopped about looking depressed.

When: August 9th - end of the month

Hair of the Dog - August 9th to August 24th

SS Blue Fish

On the morning of the 9th, the Blue Fish is going to be a little rowdier than normal as two very familiar looking dogs run around the ship. Accompanying them is an unhappy looking snow leopard that isn't able to fully outrun the bigger beasts. The amount of barking, hissing and running is unusual as they prance around the entirety of the ship, especially outside the room of a certain mustachioed mage.

Maybe someone should page their owner. :)

SS Iskaulit

Free of the confines of the smaller ship, Alistair-the-Mabari finds that running around the larger ship is fun. He spends time outside of the pool, the now abandoned mountain grove, the bars and restaurants. He is lugging around a ball, covered in drool. But anyone adventurous enough to try and approach him will be roped into a very vigorous game of fetch.

Come on. Don't you want to play with the happy doggo?

August 25th

After over two weeks of being a happy mabari, Alistair's augment rights itself and he's back to a person, but it's time for a rather long nap. No matter what anyone does, he will continue to sleep. And as he does, his face will get leaner and lines will start to form around his mouth and eyes. His hair will get darker from lack of sun. And anyone who sees him without a shirt on will notice there are more scars on his chest and arms than before.

[OOC: Hi, everyone! Alistair is going to be a doggo for a while before getting a canon update to the end of the comics. He will wake up on the 1st of September, but until then he will be having fun with Kiter and Riona.]

[Death is a fan of a few things in life. He loves people. He loves his family. He especially loves a certain animal known for hairballs and purring. Thus, when the feed turns on to show Death in slightly tattered robes, it isn’t immediately noticeable what’s going on. Then a tiny ball on his lap shifts around and a calico colored kitten pokes it’s head out over the ridge made by his knees. The kitten mewls and turns over onto it’s back, pawing up at the sky. Death quite calmly tickles the kitten’s tummy and laughs ever so quietly as his fingers are quickly caught and chewed on.]

I LIKE CATS. I ALWAYS HAVE. THIS ONE IS VERY FEISTY FOR HER AGE. [The kitten mewls at him again and licks his fingers.] WELL, YES, I DO LOOK A BIT FUNNY DON’T I? YOU LOOK RATHER FUZZY TO ME. [Another happy mewl.] THAT WAS THE INTENTION. UNLESS YOU WOULD PREFER TO REMAIN ON THIS PLANET? [The kitten turns itself upright and starts a very bold ascent of Death’s robe. It mewls again.] VERY GOOD, THEN. WE SHALL HAVE TO THINK OF A NAME FOR YOU. A FLOWER. WE CAN MAKE IT A TRADITION IN MY FAMILY FOR THE GIRLS.

[The kitten is on his shoulder now and boops it’s little head against Death’s cheekbone.]

POPPY. IT’S A FUNERAL FLOWER, BUT IT COMES IN BRILLIANT HUES SUCH AS RED AND ORANGE. [He nods at the video feed.] I DON’T THINK IT IS WISE TO GO TRAVELING BELOW THE FOG AND THE CLOUDS, BUT THE REWARDS ARE APPARENTLY APROPOS.

And then, something else happened. He was in a completely different place, somewhere clean, utilitarian but gleaming... and there were stars.

Truth be told, he hadn't gotten past the disbelief, gradually coming to terms with both space and his own continued existence, when suddenly everything changed around him again. Only this time, there was a little tune to greet him, confetti and dessert?

So don't mind him, far more disoriented than he's ever been, stumbling and barely keeping himself upright, staring around the bridge in building bewilderment - and it's rather immediately clear that's what it is, the stations, the windows... space again. However that happened. ]
