WEEK 0 ALERT

emergency detected

 

ALERT: EMERGENCY IN BRIG. LOCKDOWN SEQUENCE FAILED. SYSTEM REBOOT LOCKED, MANUAL REPAIRS NECESSARY TO RESUME FURTHER SHIPWIDE FUNCTION.

LIFE SUPPORT STABLE. CLIMATE CONTROL STABLE.
FUNCTIONALITY WILL RESUME AFTER EMERGENCY ADDRESSED.
WARNING: PROCEED WITH CAUTION

REQUESTING CALLSIGNS:
MIDDLEPART AND TRUSTFALL TO THE BRIG.

It's quiet, this morning, barring the request sent out by the Eudora. Hard to not be, considering the proceedings of yesterday - the loss of two crew members that you had come to know over the past week. The truth, revealed. They're answers, but many surely think that they are unsatisfactory answers. For this reason, Scien has been sequestered off to the brig, both for his safety and the safety of the remaining passengers, but questions can be asked.

Until the morning comes.

It's quiet, this morning. The walls of the Eudora feel looming in the silence, but duty calls. Eunhyuk Lee and Sheba have been requested to investigate the brig. There's nothing to guide them to the stasis bay and brig area except their own feet; no compulsion, no guiding light, just a request from the synthetic AI voice of the ship herself. If others attempt to investigate in their stead, they'll find that they're given no access beyond the area that houses the crew's lockers, but these two individuals can make it through without trouble.

The emergency lights aren't on, but there's a different glow to the area.

It's quiet.

[ wow ]

Ah, well—outside forces do happen. [ your zonai battery runs out ] Hopefully that is not the case now.

[inquired]

[ well he jumps like a startled cat at the hiss noise from the stasis bay but what else is new ]

[ravenry]

[ yeah she has no idea what a car is but somehow she knew ]

Even the weak and frail hold it together better than this.

[ a hiss? ]

[dropoffs]

[ no! there's no desire here for arthur to be nice wow. they just sort of take it. ]

Adra's trying to break in themself to let us in. This is all I can do right now.

[ helpless.mp3 but it's like playing in a store across the mall. ]

[rosebleed]

Is that a good noise?

[desperate]

[dropoffs]

Most unsatisfying answer to both you n' me - long as it takes. It'll get done.

[ curls hand on barrier. ]

[pathematic]

[hm.

at that, Eunhyuk is quiet like he's thinking. I should have brought matches.

then he moves to pick up scien, god they're the same fcking height. trying to figure out how to transport this man as sheba looks at the second notif...?]

We can bring him out with us.

[don't just volunteer sheba]

[inquired]

[ oh, little lamb... my sweet little lamb..... ]

Doubtful.

[expiries]

[rubs at his face and then there's a moment of !! vibes when he hears that hiss.]

What-?

[teenrebellion]

Yeah, I don't like that.

[ he starts when that hiss goes off. ]

Please tell me something else didn't just break.

[discomfort]

... what was that sound?

[ well at least he knows that's not a snake hiss noise so he isn't worried about snore (snake vore) ]

[rosebleed]

[She does need a shearing.]

You could at least pretend there's a sliver of hope.

[dropoffs]

[ as they're figuring this out - the notifs and the body carrying, oh, our scienhyuk... - the pod door is swinging open in the background.

but the other notif... is a video recording? sheba can have it airdropped to her I.R.I.S. to view. ]

[dropoffs]

[ just looking down now quietly. ]

As ever.

[riverbeans]

[FROWNING AT THE HISSING NOISE...]

[agamid]

[ it can be whatever you say it is beautiful ]

[verminous]

[YEAH SAME.]

-somethin' else break? Ah, w-wait, did I jinx it for real...

[ravenry]

[ they can see into the stasis....

her eyes go the pod. the sciod (scien pod)? ]

That? What is that supposed to mean?

[inquired]

[ tenderly shepherds ]

False hopes are just a fancy way to say lies, your highness, and it is always better to be prepared.

[messy]

... Uh...

[HISSING??? can they see the pod door swinging open. help.]

[uncoincidental]

...he wanted the both of them to be burned.

[dahut being in the pod hadn't felt like. delivering scien to the pod doesn't feel right, either, but she hears his thought about matches and wishes she had some of her own - something to start a fire.

there's nothing for now.

Their remains can be retrieved from the pods and burned later, can't they...?

the other notif gets airdropped to her I.R.I.S., and as she heads back to eunhyuk and scien's corpse, she fiddles with it and pulls up the holographic screen - disabling the privacy setting so that eunhyuk can also see it - before moving to the other side of scien's body to help pick him up. the video can be projected between them while they carry him, it's fine.]

[rosebleed]

[Long SIGHING]

I am aware.

[Taking her bow off her back]

[discomfort]

[ THE JUMPSCARE OF REALIZING THIS WAS TO ME ]

[pathematic]

[britt like we can both see this horrible video recording,

he looks at her briefly and nods, picking up scien with Sheba's help, this is a nothing tag so we can see the video recording and be traumatized for life,]

[inquired]

All the better for it!

[ temenos mistral has never had a non-realistic thought in his entire life.

i hope that was just the pod door opening and nothing bad happens so it's just a bunch of ye oldes like (old man yells at cloud) over technology ] May your aim be sharp and true.

[ like he's not also got his cleric staff in hand ready to :bonk: ]
