Bassoon, Day 25 - All Cabins

[mtsilver_conquor]

[This is up as soon as she figures out A- she is trapped in her cabin, and B- that these still work.]

These things still work. It's not the best, but it's what we have.

I know we're trapped and the Inspectors are coming. Yes, I feel the dread as well, no, I don't know why. Yet, and it is hard to think of it as one, the upside is at least we can still use these. We should make use of it. Think of it like getting to know everyone.

I'm Eva Iden'no. I come from a world with pokemon -think hardier animals with superpowers- and I have one with me called Princess. He's a pippi - Klefairy in 'English'.

I'm in Cabin 1:C and Team Orange; the only original Orange from when people were first brought aboard.

This is ridiculous. Why in God’s name would you want to play a get to know you game at a time like this? We should be planning ways to fight the inspectors when they come. Get our freedom back. Maybe even find a way home.

Idiot.

[tinkerheart]

This is Fëanor.

Good that at least those are working. I'd like everyone to speak up. Are we all in our cabins? Is there anyone unaccounted for?

Eva, how is your Cabin? Everyone there?

And Joss, stop being an obnoxious brat. The lady has a point. You don't want to be part of it? Fine. But she is making a reasonable suggestion so unless you have something equally reasonable to add or a problem to report, do refrain from commenting.

[mtsilver_conquor]

I woke up not long ago and I'd imagine we are and everyone's accounted for in my cabin, Princess included.

It's going to be hard to not comment. These things go to cabins, not people. Even if they did, we're still with others, so what we say and is said to us will be overheard.

Outside my idea, we could play truth or dare.

[tinkerheart]

I do not forbid him to speak. He'd just better have something more to say than an insult.

[There's a considerable pause before Fëanor speaks again.]

What's truth or dare?

[He understands it's a game. He's just never heard of it.]

[dredefulchilde]

Being an obnoxious brat is my job. So is, apparently, being the only person who wants to use this opportunity to overthrow our captors and get the hell off this bloody train.

[mtsilver_conquor]

Right.

Well. I'd love too as well, but the last time I saw Princess as a ball of growling puffed up fluff and wings was when there was a wild, feral gengā lurking- they eat the souls of people and are apex predators. For all I know, these Inspectors are the same.

So. Forgive me for wanting to keep everyone calm and not panicking.

[mtsilver_conquor]

We don't even know if they should be fought.

We need more information before we go off half-cocked, and currently, we don't have that.

And, at the very least, getting to know each other will keep us occupied on the now.

[dredefulchilde]

Torturing people is an excellent way to get information. Why not capture at least one?

[myblueskies]

Joss! Calm down. [Okay that's tricky because it's really scary right now. Romeo knows he sounds scared and he's trying to keep his spirits up. But he doesn't want Joss shouting at people.] Miss Eva was only trying to help keep everyone's spirits up!

They just want to check our tickets, so I don't think we got to fight them!

[dredefulchilde]

I can't calm down, Romeo. Not when there's that music in my head and I feel as if I'm about to go mad.

If we don't fight them, how do we escape?

[myblueskies]

I know, it's really scary! But you're really brave Joss! It will be fine.

[A pause before that last bit...] Where would we go Joss? I don't think we can go in the void and if they are ticket inspectors they just want to look at our tickets, right?

[runs_on_batteries]

Attaboy, kid!

[It's a little awkward since he was complimenting someone who his roommate was currently talking to, but he was a proud grin on his face.]

Don't back down, you know you're right.

[dredefulchilde]

Do you have your suit with you in the cabin, Stark? I've seen what that thing can do in those videos you showed me.

[runs_on_batteries]

I always have my suit with me.

[Pause.]

Well, not always always. But yes, it's here and I'm not afraid to use it.

[myblueskies]

Hello miss Eva! It's nice to meet you. I'm Romeo and I'm in cabin um... D in the second sleeper carriage. With mister Wade and mister Uldren. I'm on the Blue team!

[mtsilver_conquor]

Nice to meet you, Romeo-kun.

[He sounds young; another child? Mew's DNA, she hopes not.]

That's good to know. How is everyone there?

[myblueskies]

Alright! We are keeping our spirits up even if it's a little bit scary. How is everybody in your room miss?

Action

[runs_on_batteries]

[From his bed where he was laying on his back and a hand over his face melodramatically. (I.e., exactly this icon.)]

What the hell are you doing?

Action

[mtsilver_conquor]

Trying to distract everyone from the fear. The last situation simliar to this I was in, one of the adults did the same thing. It helped.

[Because they'd been hostages and-

Not going down that path. This is not like that. It can't be.]

Unless you want people to panic?

Re: Action

[runs_on_batteries]

[Okay fine, that was pretty sound logic. He's just.. this was really annoying.]

Course not.

[He sighs heavily.]

Oh. I don't think I remembered to tell you since you disappeared but.. since Manabu 'left' you're now on the council. You and Ash both.

[He wasn't going to mention there'd been some confusion on his part that had resulted in now having an even number of council members. Nope. They should all just ignore that fact.]

How's Princess doing?

[mayp]

Who are the inspectors? It's good to meet you Evan, I'm May and I'm also on Team Orange.

[mtsilver_conquor]

Parker-san! It's nice to meet you- Peter-kun mentioned you. It's good he has family here.

[There's a smile in her voice because it is good, but she's also going with Peter's last name, and hoping that's right. She could use the woman's name, but that would be Rude, especially given the other woman is older than her.]

I know as much as you do about this, but Princess's reaction tells me it's probably not good.

[mayp]

It's good to see he has so many friends here.

Princess? It's not good either way. I just hope it isn't anything too bad.

[unholyandbroken]

Jessica Custer but call me Jessie, purple and in 2:A

Also the smoker. [Also hiding that she and tight spaces do not get along at all.]

[mtsilver_conquor]

That's fine- I don't mind it. It's nothing compared to Goopy's stench.

It's nice to meet you, Jessie-san.

[If she sounds awkward, it's because she is. But she will respect the woman's wishes.]
