With a creaking groan on Saturday morning, the stasis bay door finally opens up, revealing a broad, clean hallway and a lit sign overhead that says WELCOME TO THE CSS EUDORA. Lining the walls, you'll find that there are square lockers to grab your non-sentient belongings that weren't inside of your cold sleep pod (your home item and two changes of clothes from your canon). Along with those, you will find that your belongings have been carefully set inside of a sleek, black courier bag, nestled in among a few welcome gifts waiting for you! Upon opening it up, you'll find the following items to use as you see fit:

πŸͺ A luxurious eyemask, to block out the haters (and any solar flares)
πŸͺ A handkerchief, with hand-stitched embroidery.
πŸͺ A mini radio that plays some old tunes from the 90s and back, it also works as a bluetooth speaker for I.R.I.S.
πŸͺ A moon lamp, to provide some comforting light
πŸͺ A simple, but useful, multi-tool, closed when you find it
πŸͺ A small, refillable medical kit, pre-packed for your potential bumps and bruises (1 minor heal)
πŸͺ A few packets of freeze-dried fruit, to chase away the immediate munchies
πŸͺ A mini craft cocktail kit, to drink away your troubles (made into a mocktail kit if you are below 21)

Take your time to familiarize yourself with your new surroundings and freshen up in the communal bathroom that's been made available. You will also find that your living quarters have been neatly arranged along a hallway, just waiting for you to find your name on the doorβ€”meet your roommate!

Why, you can even enjoy an informative slideshow presentation that plays in the mess hall on all of the screens! It might not be a very big one, but the world of the CSS Eudora is your oyster for a few hours. There's plenty of time between the auspicious announcement and 1500 hours for you to get to know your fellow junior crewmates.
Welcome to the second part of our introductory weekend, this time featuring some of your new home and a few special surprises. Have a look around your brand new home, and if you have any questions, we will field them in the server.

πŸš€ Your I.R.I.S. and you! Characters will find that their I.R.I.S. communications device is now up and fully functioning. There are quite a few features for you to explore, including crew member profiles. Why not have a look and see just what kind of information has been compiled about you? And who exactly you're working with. The I.R.I.S. itself also comes witih a handy dandy guide explaining all of its fun features.

πŸš€ Some things to look out for include two events that will occur today and tomorrow. The first event will begin on (2/24) - 12PM PST | 3PM EST, and the second event will follow on (2/25) - 12PM PST | 3PM EST, so stay tuned for a ping in the server. Even if you are busy today, please feel free to tag in at a later time.

[ He laughs. ]

Not to terrible. I have a hoodie with ears like this back home.
inquired: (125)

[personal profile] inquired 2024-02-24 06:07 pm (UTC)(link)
[ he has no idea what a hoodie is ]

Then, by all means, consider it charity. [ he laugh s alittle when he says it, though, hand to his heart as he resumes removing the rest of the items from the locker. there's a cute little tunic, some little modesty shorts, some arm guards... and comically, a tiny, ridiculous bow and arrow with three suction cup arrows and a quiver... ]

Hmm. The rest of the set is lacking something, I see. [ as he picks up one of the suction cup arrows and gives it a little spin. ]

[ He'll take the headband off for now, and put it into an apron pocket.

Watching as the clothes come out. ]


Looks like a bow for kids.

My. They expect you to start a farm.

[personal profile] perfectdistance 2024-02-24 06:38 pm (UTC)(link)
Haven't seen a place for gardenin' yet.

[ He is not against starting a garden. That sounds relaxing. ]

[ there's a beat, and then: ]

Ah! You're the chef, aren't you? One of the others mentioned so.
perfectdistance: ([G] Talk 1)

[personal profile] perfectdistance 2024-02-24 06:46 pm (UTC)(link)

[personal profile] inquired 2024-02-24 07:04 pm (UTC)(link)
Mm. [ he will not be revealing his sources at this time ]

What a wonderful skillset to have. The availability of food does seem to have increased...

[ The way it's on his profile anyway. ]

Do we actually have access to a kitchen yet?

[


No. ]
inquired: (234)

[personal profile] inquired 2024-02-24 07:58 pm (UTC)(link)
I can't say I've looked.

[ as if temenos will cook anything ]

But, perhaps you'll share your skills with us once we do?

[personal profile] perfectdistance 2024-02-24 08:04 pm (UTC)(link)
Sure, I don't mind.
