Orchestra 14 [Voice post]

[voidtreckermods]

[The train has been flying steady for a few days now, the storm long behind them. Those vetran to the train will know it is days past when they should have had a mission, the pattern broken for the first time.

A few hours after the wake up announcement on Orchestra 14 there is another, as all the ICP's flash at the same time.]

Attention Voidtreckers. The Voidtrecker Express would like to make an apology. Voidtreckers may believe this is long overdue. The Voidtrecker Express listens to all feedback and suggestions, I am aware of voidtreckers opinions on many matters.

The false mission to lure us towards the Inspectors was not a tactic I had prepared for. Their skill in manufacturing a mission call was highly sophisticated. The ruse was not discovered until their shields were falling into place and though an attempt to evacuate was undertaken it was not possible to retrieve more than a small handful of you.

In escaping the Inspectors I was reckless and left us vulnerable to the void storm that we encountered. Though there were no long lasting repercussions as a result of that an apology must still be made for the harm done.

Voidtreckers are correct. I should be more open with you all. In the spirit of transparency I shall also inform voidtreckers that we have received a transmission from Voidscout Anan. It is currently being verified and checked to make sure it is real. The Voidtrecker Express has no wish to lead its voidtreckers into another trap. Once verified I shall release the transmission to you in full. Please be assured it is not a distress call. There is no danger detected.

Voidtreckers have accused the Voidtrecker Express of caring less about its current crew than the crew of old. That is untrue. The Voidtrecker knows all of its crew. Every loss is a regret. The Voidtrecker Express invites its voidtreckers to share their thoughts with it.

I open this channel to any questions. The Voidtrecker Express shall not answer the questions straight away but compile them and report back with those answers that can be shared.

Voidtreckers can share as well. What is it that voidtreckers wish the Voidtrecker Express to know?

(OOC: Replies can be given by voice or video like any normal ICP post. They can choose to reply 'to all' or 'to engine' to give a more private response.)

This is my job. Making food for everyone here.

[They sound less worried and more firm, now.]

Tell me what it is you miss. I can probably approximate it for you.

[This is horrible... Idia had only expected the train to answer him, not just someone at random. This is what he gets for trying to get answers. What a pain.

There's a heavy sigh.] I-I guess... I just, I just like snack foods. Stuff that's easy to eat while I'm working or gaming. [And not too messy, so not to get on his current building project or on the controller he's using.]

[worthallthis]

That's easy, then. I have a lot of snack foods I mostly make for myself and for missions. I can leave a big batch or two out along with something to serve it into a bag or bowl for easy carrying if that would help?

[They're mostly healthy snack foods, so Idia may or may not appreciate this, but still.]

[flameinthedarkness]

[No! This was even worse! Now it's just going to be some big fuss, and he's going to have to owe this person for doing that! Who knows what they would want in return! It was easier just stealing stuff already made...]

Y-Y-You don't need to do t-that!

[worthallthis]

I should anyway, really. I'm sure more people than just you will benefit.

[flameinthedarkness]

Great! Great! Then you can make them for others. [Please stop singling him out for all of this. Don't make it sound like he was being demanding and making others do stuff for him. Idia can't deal with that.]
