Action: YEAH!!!!!
When: July!

[Congratulations to the crews that did not get themselves blown up! Welcome to the Blue Planet, a planet full of charming islands and even less charming weather patterns! Are you going to take the time to enjoy the beach? Help out with the local Nunnilis population? Get caught in a storm with another person and have a rating boosting sexual tension moment? The world's your oyster!]

[Yeah in other words: ITS A MINGLE GET IN HERE]

[July Planet Info!]

[After weeks of relative silence, our intrepid passengers finally travel within visual range of a blue planet. Marsiva's slow-and-steady course makes it clear that this is the Drift Fleet's next destination--but just as your ships come within scanning range and your computers begin to gather data, a fleet of quick little watchdog ships zip out of the planet's atmosphere, heading straight for you!

They do not swoop in for an attack, but hold their positions between you and the planet. They look close enough to cause some trouble, and any working Communications Officer can tell you that they have weapons locked on the Fleet in warning.

The tell-tale sound of an incoming hailing frequency chimes over your ship's alert system. Someone would like you to pick up the phone. Thanks to their augment, all passengers instinctively know that they'll be looking for the Captain or the Communications Officer of the ship--but no one says someone else can't pick it up first.

On the bridge, the hailing frequency can be viewed on screen, along with the attached subject: "Identify yourselves." The notification chime goes off every seven seconds. These ships don't look like they're going anywhere, but they don't want to be kept waiting, either.

What do you do? Will you accept the frequency?]



ooc → see the July Star System post for details about this event! there is no real rush in this post (we won't even be around to begin responding to it until Sunday afternoon), so take your time, feel free to tag each other in this post (maybe try to get your Comms officers off their asses), and there is no time too late to tag into this post. the element of urgency is all IC, and there is no OOC pressure at all.

Who: The Blue Fish Crew & Any Visitors
Broadcast: MAYBE
Action: SS Blue Fish
When: Beginning of July

[So in the past month, Aang & Katara may or may not have become an item, Sokka finished off all of puberty in under a week, Allen remained stuck in the puberty still, Toph won strangest pilot award briefly before she had to give it up to a pony, Hawke sassed everything and finally itemized with Anders, Beverly acquired a Starfleet issued puppy, and it turned out the cook is a flipping disney princess. Quite a time for the Blue Fish crew!]

[Well, it's time to check in with them again: AKA IT'S A MINGLE EVERYONE]
destinyembrace: (I will catch fire)
[personal profile] destinyembrace
[The Blue Fish crew might be surprised to find a private message from Kairi waiting for them on their communicators.

Ever since Allen had told them about his Noah a few months back, Kairi had been debating telling them her own secret. Well, one of them, anyway. There was the issue of Naminé, but she wasn't even sure how to broach that subject. For now, she would have to let that topic lie, and instead focus on her other secret.

Truth be told, she's not sure if this will even be an issue. They're seemingly so far away from the worlds she ever knew about, it's possible that the laws that governed them didn't apply out here. But it wasn't a chance she wanted to take. If Allen could open up to them about his Noah, then she certainly could tell them about this.

It didn't make her any less nervous, though.]


Hey everyone. Um... there's something I should tell you guys. It's nothing bad, per se, but it's... well, it does tend to attract trouble. Hopefully not here! [She laughed nervously, pushing her hair back.] I... think we're far away enough from where I'm from that it shouldn't be an issue, but... just in case..

Okay. [Deep breath.] Where I'm from, there are two forces that sort of govern everything. Light and Darkness. They're opposites, but one cannot exist without the other. Darkness isn't necessarily evil, but it does tend to lend itself to it. It's a very corrupting influence if you're not careful. The Light is generally a force of good, but not usually as powerful as Darkness. You... I think you get the idea.

In most people's hearts, there is both Light and Darkness. How much varies per each person. Those who are corrupt and yearn for power tend to have more Darkness than Light. The Darkness can corrupt a person's heart, turn them to evil, but there's always a little bit of Light in there that won't go out. As long as you're still human, at least. [There were Heartless and Nobodies and whatnot, but she wasn't going to go into that now.] Anyway...

[And here comes the hard part.] There is an exception to that. Seven exceptions, to be exact. There are seven girls who have hearts of pure Light, not one bit of Darkness in them. They're called the Princesses of Heart. If you put all seven of them together and release the power within their hearts, they can open the door to the heart of all worlds. I guess there's supposed to be untold wisdom and power in that heart, but that's just legend. Likely something no one should ever find out. [Though Maleficent had come damn close, averted barely by Sora's interference.]

I'm... one of those seven. [She releases a shaky breath.] I don't think it poses a danger, especially since the others aren't here. But that much Light does tend to attract Darkness. It can also repel it, though. I guess it depends on how it's used? I don't know. I only learned about this a year ago and not in the best way. Given how I don't think the laws about Light and Darkness even apply out here, it may be a non-issue. I wanted you guys to know, though. Just in case. Riku and Axel also know about this, so if something were to come up and I wasn't ... they'd be able to help.

That's everything, I guess. I'd appreciate it if you guys kept this quiet, just to be on the safe side. If you have any questions, I'll do my best to answer. [She moves to turn off the communicator, but pauses and suddenly frowns.] Oh, and no, I am not royalty. [Probably.] So no "your highness" jokes out of any of you.

[With that said, the feed ends.]

[On screen, there's a very calm redhead looking thoughtfully at the camera, one brow slightly cocked.]

It's occurred to me that the fleet has about ten times as many firearms as it does medical professionals. It's also been pretty apparent that a lot of our cast members don't know the basics of gun safety and use. If anyone wants to learn, I'll be at the following coordinates.

[The message ends with a bit of text, the location of one of the abandoned waystations in near orbit.]

Action: Blue Fish
When: Right now!

[Sokka has finally awoken from cryosleep. He looks a little older (which, of course, he is, he's a whole 19 years now) and his hair is in disarray, but awake he is. His communicator catches him sitting upright, blinking confusedly around him as he tries to sort through three years worth of memories and try to work out where the hell he is.

After a few moments, the pieces fall into place, and he lets out a low groan, flopping back on his bed.
]

Ugh. I thought I was done with this place.

[Then, he gets up, reluctantly, ties his hair back up in a pony tail, and heads up the hatch and out into the Blue Fish himself. It's like going back to a dream. Or maybe a nightmare. The familiarity is fuzzy and off, but it's slowly creeping back to him. ]

If anyone's looking for Sokka, it seems he's fallen into a deep sleep. Nothing seems to be wrong beyond not waking up, so hopefully he'll wake soon.

[It takes a few minutes of fiddling with the device before she finally manages to get it on to a video feed.]

What a strange device. [Right. That's not why she's here.]

It occurs to me that I have no idea where it is I am. I was in Skyhold and then I woke up...here. It is unlike anyplace I have ever seen and while that is fascinating I would appreciate knowing more about it. They have moved me to one of the ships now, though it is unlike any ship I have ever seen before.

[Look, she's asking before killing people for information! Progress!]

So if you could oblige me with answers soon, I would appreciate it.

[And then she smiles in a way that's a little too practiced before fumbling with the device more and then finally shutting it off.]

Who: Kairi
Broadcast: Yep
Action: For anyone who's on the Blue Fish!
When: Later tonight

[It was just a simple message, asking what he was doing, making sure he hadn't fallen asleep again. But she couldn't find him. Like he hadn't ever been there, his name was gone from the list.

No.

Kairi quickly types in Sora's number, hoping maybe it was just a hiccup. She tried sending the message, but nothing. It couldn't find it. She frantically keeps hitting send, willing it to work, to send it to him. She did everything she could think of to try and fix it, in hopes that she was doing something wrong or the device was broken or there was interference or anything but what the cold dread in her stomach told her.

When her options were exhausted, and her panic turned into sadness, she then finally began to cry. He was gone, wasn't he? There was a chance she was wrong, but something in her told her she wasn't wrong. But she had to try, to ask, just in case. So she stubbornly wiped away her tears and opened a new post to address the network.]


So, um. If a person is gone from - if you can't find them on your communicator...

[This is harder than she expected. She has to fight to keep her voice steady. This is not only the first time someone she's known here that has been sent back, it's one of her best friends.]

Unless something isn't working? Is... anyone else's communicator not showing names? It could be that, right?

[But she doesn't believe it. Her voice cracks at the end, and she quickly ends the feed before she starts crying again.]

Who: Beverly Crusher and all you other fine redheads
Broadcast: Networkwide Video
Action: Blue Fish, Cargo Bay
When: Right after the shuffle!

[The video feed cuts on to show Beverly, grinning with amusement, though her tone remains professional as she addresses the fleet.] Attention, Drift Fleet! This is Dr. Crusher of the SS Blue Fish. [Sorry guys, it's going to be a while before she stops talking to the network like she's in Starfleet.] We've received an... interesting delivery here on board the Blue Fish that I think some of you will want to see.

[She steps back from the camera for a moment, revealing the Blue Fish's cargo bay, stacked floor to ceiling with crates of what looks like... shampoo? You'll also see the Blue Fish's intrepid Captain Sokka in the background, mouth open in angry shock about this intrusion into his cargo bay. Beverly walks over to the nearest crate and pulls out a bottle of shampoo to hold up closer to the camera. The shiny red bottle looks suspiciously similar to a certain famous salon brand of hair care products from late 20th or early 21st century Earth, if any of you happen to be familiar with that. "JOHN FLOOTER" is emblazoned prominently on the top along with the words "RESPLENDENT RED" in gold.]

In case you can't tell what is in the crates, it's shampoo, and tons of it.

[Her face pops back onscreen.]

Someone out there must really have a thing for redheads. [She waggles her eyebrows.] But who can blame them?

[She sets the shampoo back in its box before continuing.]

Of course, it's not all for just me and Kairi! They sent a list, which I'll upload onto the network, and if your name is on it, you can come by the Blue Fish at any time to pick up your gift. Or, if it's easier for you, just let me know and I'll bring your box by your ship at your earliest convenience. Thank you!

((ooc: if your character is a redhead, assume they're on the list. someone in the audience just really wanted an excuse for all the redheads to get together, okay???))

Who: Beverly Crusher
Broadcast: No
Action: Blue Fish
When: May 10 (Mother's Day for anyone who celebrates it)

[Having had her fill of the casino scene for now, Beverly is back on board the Blue Fish, hard at work in their sickbay. She quickly discovered that she is unable to download the Starfleet database from her newly-obtained tricorder to the ship's computers, so she has been painstakingly typing up some of the more important information. Right now, she's going back over some of her own medical logs from the Enterprise, editing typos and adding comments where necessary. It's a slow process, but the more projects she has to work on, the better. Today is a day she'd rather not think too much about.

Unfortunately for her, Atroma is not going to allow that to happen.

Hi, Mom! says a bright, chipper voice. A voice she would recognize anywhere, the most important voice in the world to her.

She stands abruptly, knocking her chair over in the process. Where is his voice coming from? Did he... is he really here? A momentary surge of hope flows through her.]


Wesley?

[He continues to speak, Sorry I haven't written in a while. Things have been so crazy at the Academy lately. We got a new member of the Nova Squadron today, her name is Sito Jaxa and she's from Bajor! She's got a pretty cute nose...

Beverly gasps, feeling as if someone's just stabbed her in the heart and twisted the knife. This is only a recording, and an old one at that, before the incident with the Squadron, before Sito... scrambling around the room, she finds the tricorder where she left it sitting on a nearby table. A small hologram of Wesley is being projected above it as he talks. For a solid minute or two, she simply stares at the hologram, not really comprehending his words.

Anyway, I just wanted to wish you a happy Mother's Day! I miss you! His smile is so wide, so happy, and then the hologram shuts off. Beverly picks up the tricorder and scrolls through the messages. There they all are, every single letter he ever sent her while he was away, the videos she sent back of planets she had visited, holoimages of the two of them together on the Enterprise. She is absolutely certain these weren't here when she first got the tricorder out of the voucher machine. Selecting another letter at random, she hits play. There's no hologram this time, but he's excited: it was his first day of zero-g training. She picks up her fallen chair and drags it over to the table so she can sit and just listen.

Suddenly, it all gets to be too much and she begins to cry. Once she starts, she finds she can't stop, so she just lets it go and falls forward, elbows on the table and head in her hands, desperately hoping no one will see her like this.]

Action: Only if you can find him!
When: RIGHT MEOW.

[Dorian is reading from a book with a woman and a man on the gover, clearing his throat and grinning impishly.]

Ah, good afternoon. I thought I might treat you to this book I found. Let's see here...

[He flips through the pages]

“He gives us a sack of tatties of a Friday. And sometimes after kirk he delivers a haggis..." No, that started promising, but that's not it, let's see here...

[He flips through the pages, frowning to himself, occasionally looking slightly scandalized, he gets nearly through the whole book, when FINALLY.]

Ahah! Here we are.

[He clears his throat, and starts in. As he reads, he's a positive ham about it.]

“Savages such as you, such as I.” He kissed her lightly at first, his lips brushing against hers and his hands sliding down her sides.

“Is that what we are, Gavin Macgregor? Savages?” Gavin pulled away from her, sucking her lip softly between his and tasting every inch of the woman he’d loved for his entire life for the first time. He tilted his head to one side. “Ach, you may be more savage than me by twice.”

So close that their breath mixed between them, the walls around the pair seemed to vanish. Kenna slid her hands down Gavin’s arms, her fingers bouncing over every little muscle and tendon. She looked down at his chest, then back into his eyes, lost in the ocean she found.


Words, words, I don't even know half of what this man is saying...here we go...

She closed her eyes and Gavin kissed her along her jaw, behind her ear. Kenna’s skin prickled to life where he kissed, and where the heat from his palms burned through her dress.

[And then he flips the page, and then again. There are only a handful of pages left in the book.]

...that's it? I was hoping for more than just a single kiss!

[He makes a disgusted noise and pitches the book over his shoulder.]

one.

I wonder, is there someone I ought to thank for bringing me here?

[ her smile is measured, unassuming, but the airiness in her tone suggests her gratitude is a careful, waiting thing. she does not yet know if this is safe - safer, anyway, would be a blessing of some sort. her suit sits primly on her shoulders, red hair half-braided neatly down her back.

(she had wondered about asking for dye, but there seems no means for requesting, and her red served her well enough in Demeleier. and so far, thankfully, she has heard nothing that speaks of, in whispers or otherwise, of Westeros.

it will do.) ]


My pardons. I understand there must be work to be done. But I am newly arrived, and seek only to better know those that I travel with.

[ she inclines her head politely. ]

My name is Alayne, and this place is like nothing I have seen before - but perhaps some are more familiar. Or, perhaps, you have known this already - being moved to somewhere new, that is. Whether by a means such as this, or something more mundane.

[ her gaze flits away, expression warmed by idle chatter. ]

I thank you, for your time.

[If there's anything this freaking ship loves, it's food. Somehow, a dinner got planned to welcome the new member. And then other people got invited. And then the dinner pretty much turned into a party with a lot of food. Needless to say, Kairi has been very busy preparing food all the day for this.

There's a lot of meat, per the captain's request. But there's also veggies, some fruit, pasta, and even brownies! There are also two pizza pies. Basically, Kairi just cooked a bunch of food and hoped it would be enough, as she had no idea how many people were coming.

But no matter! The point is mingling, and also painting. This has nothing to do with anyone calling the ship's interior boring, naturally, that is total coincidence. The cats will be helping by walking through spilled paint at every opportunity, rolling around in said spilled paint at also every opportunity, and biting Achilles' tendons.

Sally forth, friends, Blue Fishians, country...men...spaceians?? Mingle 'til you just can't mingle no mo'. Or. Something.
