I'm over the moon

[lucetimods]

Who: All draftees
What: Arriving on The Liberator and preparing for battle
When: Today, from 9AM to 3PM
Where: SPAAAACE
Summary: The draftees are in space! On a ship! IN SPACE! SPACE!
Rating: SPACE

SPAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACE!!

But no really. The draftees are in space. The mod post about it is here, so familiarize yourself with the details. This log is for general interactions, where you can tag around as your characters familiarize themselves with the ship, look out the windows, try on their space suits, and run simulations for the Tyr-Fighters. (Among other things.)

Specialist Davis can be encountered and will have a thread available on the log to talk to him on.

[Ah, the one flaw in his plan. How to correct for this... As this loop ends, he freezes the video and shrinks it so it only fills a quarter of the screen.]

That is the end. [Not technically a lie. It's just the sixth time he's shown the end.]

[rollypolyclover]

[Oh, the end.

...

She starts clapping her hands to applaud the cicada, but she feels a little cheaped out since it was just the one cicada.

But at least one cicada was better then no cicada at all!]

Now you bow! Good job Robo Canti!

[blackflames]

[He doesn't have much data on cicadas, or he would have provided a better video. But the applause is still nice! Clearing his screen, Canti stands and takes a bow before sitting down again.]

[rollypolyclover]

[Clapping and bow done with, it's time to move on to the encore.]

Again?! Can Yotsuba see the cicada some more?!

[ :D? ]

[blackflames]

That is my only video. if you do not mind watching it again...

[He restarts the video, ready to loop the same number of times. It's nice that robots record everything.]

[rollypolyclover]

Ohhh okay, Yotsuba will watch again.

[At that she puts her hands in a her pockets for a second and tilts her head.]

No money, can I still watch it again without Yotsuba renting another video? I like cicada videos.

[blackflames]

[The video is playing, so he can't very well nod or communicate with text. Instead, he gives a thumbs-up affirmative. Everything's free here, anyway.]

[rollypolyclover]

[Even after being here for eight months she still sometimes forgets about the whole money thing.

Plus there might have been space money.

But anyway, cicadas! Abububu they're so cute and awesome and she could just sit here and watch this forever. Or take Canti home and use him as a TV.]

[blackflames]

[It stops again after a few more loops, to equal the same number as earlier. Once it's over, he turns his head slightly and looks out the window again. No stars... it's so weird.]

[rollypolyclover]

[Yotsuba tries to turn as Canti does so she can keep looking at the screen, even with the video having stopped. When she realises there's no more cicadas she too looks out the window.

...]

Space! [Yes. That is where they are and have been for some time now.

It's still cool.]

[blackflames]

[... It's unlikely that she only just realized this was space. This is an excellent point to change the topic, however.]

Is this your first time in space?

[rollypolyclover]

[Nodding.]

Never been before, it's new! Space is new!

[blackflames]

[Technically, Canti hasn't been either. Atomsk has. He lived there, in fact. But he's his own person.]

I haven't either. It's interesting.
