Who: Nightingale, and you!
Broadcast: Video, fleetwide
Action: Bishop, if you need her
When: Now

[When the video starts, Nightingale can be seen, a large wooden staff leaned up on the wall next to her.]

I've been here for a few months now. Nearly half a year, even. And in that time, I've noticed that there's a ton of different worlds represented here, and most of them have different forms of magic. I'm a mage myself, so I find it pretty interesting.

So, I'd like to hear about all the forms of magic represented here. Especially if it's possible for you to teach it, or at least the basic principles and rules behind it. I'm trying to research if principles from one form can be applied to other forms from other worlds. Maybe combining magics from other worlds that aren't supposed to interact could be our way out of here.

[She levitates her staff from the wall to her hand, where it promptly vanishes- No point in discussing all of this magic without a demonstration, right?]

On a different note, I'm still working on a guide for new arrivals here. If anyone is willing to help give information that isn't contained in the guide I have, it would be a big help. Thanks.

[The feed ends there, but the video has a file attached to it that opens up to her introduction guide.]

[Feed opens to what will eventually be a pretty standard expression; she's annoyed, and vocal about it.]

Okay, so ... whoever named these ships is a fucking moron.

I mean ... Tourist? Really? Who's dumbass idea was that? That's like ... the worst ship name I've ever heard. It almost screams 'Hey! I'm stupid and out of my element! Come steal from me!'

Seriously, where do I petition to change this shit? Or do I gotta do an EVA and repaint the hull myself?

Who: Sarah Turner and you!
Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action: SS Golden
When: 12/06

[as the video flickers on, a blonde teenager stares intently at the camera before she flashes a toothy smile and leans in closer]

Aaaand there we go. Testing, one two-- [she taps the camera twice and grins a little wider as she hears feedback from her own device]

Is it too late for a Wizard of Oz reference? Because we sure are not in Kansas any more. [her left hand reaches up to fiddle with a strand of her wavy blonde hair as she looks up, past the camera]

So tell me if I leave anything out, because here's what I've got figured out so far. We're on Survivor: Space Edition, with just a dab of Star Travel mixed in for flavor. And I'm guessing instead of getting voted off the island, we get jetted off into space? Man, and I thought human reality TV was vicious. Turns out aliens are the real assholes.

[but despite that she laughs a bit at her own joke and turns her full attention back to the screen before she continues]

I guess the meet-and-greet comes next. Hey, I'm Sarah. [she wiggles the fingers of her right hand in a half-hearted wave] Nice to meet you, blah blah blah. While we're on the subject of introductions, I looked through the contestant list, and you guys have some wild names. Special shout out to "Belthazar" and "Adrasteius"... I can't tell if your parents were huge nerds, or if they just hated you.

So! Who all is out there? Don't be shy, I don't bite... much. [aaand yep, she accompanies that with another shit-eating-grin. She'll also be lounging around the Golden's kitchen area... Draped forward on the counter and snacking on her free pudding. Such a class act, this one.]

Who: Kotoha and YOU!
Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action: On The Marsiva, if you wish
When: Right now!

[ The video feed clicks on, and she's squinting into the camera until she's sure it's working - then, she sits back with a soft smile and a nod of her head. ]

Ahh, looks like I'm the newbie here! Hello everyone. It sure is a lot to take in - I'm suddenly in space, all by myself, no idea how I got here... Oh, but I figured some things out just watching the broadcast! Not enough, probably. [ Shrug~ ] I'll try not to ask too many questions, I promise~

This big ship is so... quiet. So, isn't there anyone to talk to out there? I'm Kotoha.

[ Suddenly, her eyes flash green. She sticks out her tongue, and it sparks with electricity. ]

Shortcut: Flower!!

[ Out of nowhere, there's now a beautiful white flower in her hand. She holds it near the camera, like she's offering it to whoever is watching, and she does this with a grin and a wink! ]

It's nice to meet everyone.

acuition

Who: the good folks on the caprine
Broadcast: not likely!
Action: for the good folks on the caprine, or anybody visiting.
When: right now? right now!!!

[ Whether you're new to the ship or happy to be back or really mad to be back...you're here. That's what matters.

Because it's a mingle post. You know how it is. ]
