I can confirm that the screen, while incomprehensible to the untrained eye, was rather alarming.

espionage.
I'll remain aboard to [...] aid coordination efforts.

[chemveil]

[....] The beeping didn't really add to the experience any.

dom.
Friday? To finish our conversation.

[loculus]

It was a foreboding beep.

maryle.
[...] If we've recovered sufficiently from today's excitement, yes.

[chemveil]

Going to get someone to reprogram that thing to a nice little song. I like my trauma to come with some dance music.

dom.
Waiting longer is only going to make me more insane, regardless of how this goes.

[loculus]

Don't give Bishop any ideas we'll regret.

maryle.
I haven't murdered anyone, nor am I leaving.

espionage.

[murphyy]

you’re staying on board?

espionage.

[loculus]

Yes.

espionage.

[murphyy]

surprising. coordination’s good tho.

espionage.

[loculus]

I can't take all the glory for myself.

espionage.

[humanityresource]

I'm forcing him to. I need to be on the ground, so someone else needs to keep us organized.

espionage.

[murphyy]

well, i won't complain that you're coming.

Espionage.

[fiia]

That is good.

Underground. Do we know if there is underground area?

Espionage.

[loculus]

Perhaps if one can scuba dive.

Espionage

[reidings]

At least ship will be in good hands while we’re gone.

Espionage

[loculus]

No one needs to fret, I do have my learner's permit.

Espionage

[reidings]

Ah, how reassuring. Might have to work towards that license faster.

Espionage

[jaxsons]

Watch over us from above.

Espionage

[loculus]

Fairy Godmother reporting for duty.

Espionage

[jaxsons]

No pumpkin carriages, though. I don't think we'd all fit.

espionage.

[humanityresource]

Thank you for managing things while I'm away.

espionage.

[loculus]

Of course.

dom/ishaan

[humanityresource]

If anyone asks, I made you stay.

dominiko.

[oneirophrenic]

If you’d care to borrow my forthcoming memoir, there is a chapter entitled "How to Contend with Feelings of Uselessness When Grounded."

dominiko.

[loculus]

Does the "How to" element include a step-by-step process? I anticipate needing structure to avoid transcribing key passages from "Bullet with Butterfly Wings" in my journals, which I don't think I've done since I was a teenager.

dominiko.

[oneirophrenic]

You get used to it, more or less, but it will feel jarring at first. Don't worry. There's more than one way to help in a crisis, and you'll quickly find where you slot in.
