[The feed opens up with... a far-too-close zoom-in on Enna's eye. But then once she's satisfied it's on, she leans back, and nods to herself.]

Hello! So, Vee did that game where everyone got to ask it three questions. And I thought it seemed kinda fun. It would be a fun way to get to know everyone here. So I think it should be a game for everyone to play.

If you can do this.... Caw, ICP? Thingy. And talk to people. Let people ask you three questions and use it to get to know people! And even if you're the kind of person who doesn't care about getting to know people, it's still worth trying, because if we're all on teams and going on missions together, the more we know about each other, the better we can work together. Tactics, battle strategy, abilities, knowledge, strengths and weaknesses... And things like personality, history, all of that. The more we know about each other, the better we'll be.

Ready? I'll start!

[ Hello fellow Void treckers, it's been awhile, hasn't it? ]

Uh.. so hi? That was uh... weird.

I don't know how long I've been gone but uh... I'm back? I guess??

Oh, this Peter, by the way. Peter Parker.

[Ran's not sure she's comfortable with being seen for this one, as it's a subject that's touching a little deeply for her, so for the moment she just sticks to voice.]

[She pulls in a soft breath.]


I . . . need some help.

I know a lot of you have met Conan-kun. He's been here for a while. There's another girl here from my world now too -- Ai-chan. If you haven't met them yet, I hope you get to soon.

What I need help with . . . They're both seven. They're both smart -- really smart -- for their age, but. They're both seven. And not fighters. The train doesn't seem to discriminate about who it takes, and yet the missions that it sends us on are dangerous.

[A pause, wrestling with her words.]

I need them both to be safe. This past time Sera-chan and I were able to be with them. But what happens if we're not able to do that? How does their safety get guaranteed?

I need a better guarantee. Please help me figure out how to keep two kids safe so I can get them back home? I'm teaching both some simpler self-defense, and that will help, but . . . I already know it's not enough.

'Sup everyone, how's it going? Got a more fun proposal than I last time I was here. [ A grin. ]

So I've been thinking we could run some sports groups! The gym's emptier these days with the training one used for all the fighting and magic classes, and it's going to waste! I don't know all the games they have the equipment for here, but there's a few I've been practising, and I figure we can spend a few days seeing what everyone likes and setting up different times people can come in and have a go.

I got a few friends to help out show some off: volleyball, badminton, tennis. Been practising basketball too. But if there's any you know and want people to get involved with, let's do it! Let's get some partners and have fun. There's hoops and nets gathering dust here.

I'm thinking we could do something around after lunchtime for the next few days, but I'll let you guys know the times for sure later. There's instructions on the ICP too if we wanna try something new once in a while, so come and check 'em out--I can even show you a few games now!

Oh uh...hello?

I hope I'm working this thing right. [She clears her throat.]

I just had a quick question. I was looking over the passenger roster, and I was just wondering what it means when there's a heart by someone's name?

A little late, but finally ready to go! This is a questionnaire for Team Orange, but other teams should feel free to copy and make use of it for their own teams it if they wish, and they can certainly edit it if they'd like to make changes.

The purpose is to take an inventory of each team member's possible future contributions to mission goals or to team projects. Eva and I think it will help the whole team to know who is good at what, when we're organizing to get any team effort going, whether it's a mission or some project we create aboard the train. Here's the final draft, so go ahead and fill it out, Orange Team!

I've filled out mine, so it might be useful as an example, and it is here. [ He reads the questions aloud first, and then he runs through them a second time with his own responses, as seen below in the first comment to this post. ]

Orange Team, you will find copies that copies of this survey have been shoved under your cabin doors, and you can return them to me when you've filled them out. You can also read them aloud right here and now, if you like, just to give everyone a preview of your skills. Don't hesitate to give it a dramatic reading! [ Chuckle ]

If you want to read all the returned questionnaires, contact me or Eva. We'll be keeping them in a folder, which I or possibly Eva can bring to the Standard Coach or wherever you want to read them. We think this would be a good idea, since as I've said, it would help us with team-building if each of us had an idea of what skills and abilities the others have.

[ OOC: Responses from Team Orange characters may be posted below, which we will assume means that the paper copies were returned to Curufin. Your characters don't need to fill out the survey in as much detail as Curufin did, unless they want to. Just use your own best judgement, and be funny or witty if you want! If you have any questions, feel free to PM this journal or plurk me at [plurk.com profile] tangyminx. ]

[ Heeeeeeere's Kaito, shirtless, with a towel and a bucket, and wide grin. How's he holding his ICP? That's a mystery (no it's not, it's propped up on something) ]

Never let it be said that I back down from a challenge!

And although I do have points for two teddy bears... y'know, one of my best buds just dumped ice on his head, and obviously a guy can't let a guy suffer alone, yeah?

So! [ DEEP BREATH ] I nominate... Edogawa Conan! Bucky-san! Aaaaaaaaand Wei Wuxian-san!

'KUSO that's c-cold!

E-enjoy your teddy bear!

I'm aware that there's a loosely structured list of classes on-board the train already, but after the last disaster, I think we need to seriously expand the offerings.

Engineering skills are crucial. It's come to my attention that Team Orange is often tasked with that. I gathered some scraps from the mission planet---anything in good condition is donated to larger products, but I'm using the leftovers to build samples for teaching the basics. Ideally we'd focus on a range of possible technological eras, so any talented smiths would be of use.

I know combat classes and basic math and science classes are already underway, but it might be worth reminding everyone about them. An expansion of medical would be wise too.

Any thoughts? Anything you're willing to teach us that we could use?

[Several hours after his apparently miraculous resurrection, Joscelin Fitzthomas opens the video link. He looks shellshocked and confused. But he also looks different. Even as washed out as he is by the video feed, his face is not quite as pale as before, and there is actual color in his cheeks that make his freckles (which also suddenly seem more numerous than there had been) stand out even more.

When he speaks, his voice is quiet and subdued, with none of his usual sarcastic swagger.]


It would appear that I troubled many of you during the mission. For that, I am sorry.

Romeo and I caught a saboteur in the act, and that person reacted by shooting at us. I took the bullet—or bolt, I suppose; how does one classify science fiction weapons?—for Romeo. At any rate, I was under the impression that I had been wounded, but I have since been disabused of that notion and it now appears that I spent the last several days dead, somehow. Tony Stark had my ashes and personal effects in his room. I...

[He seems to realize he’s rambling and cuts himself off.]

Since then, Romeo has vanished.

[His voice breaks.]

I came to bundled away in a suitcase earlier today, so please—help me by checking the baggage car regularly. Maybe Romeo needs help extricating himself from a piece of luggage. Romeo is the very best of us and I beg you all to help me find him and keep him safe. Please.

I'm not sure what this world will be like--honestly I don't understand half of what we're being told--but I do know what my specialty is: procuring items.

I know this place is probably going to be hectic from the sound of things but I still think the best way I can help anyone is to work my way into getting us things we need or want for the train. Don't worry--I won't make life harder on the people we're here to help. [That line is specifically for people like Tony Stark that might find offense in what he does. But he's still determined to do this.]

But what I'm offering is this: tell me what you want and I'll try to get it.

Name anything for now because we don't know what will be there but I can always look for it.

Well that sure was one Helluva Nap.

[ Comes the voice of the Doctor. He's met a few of you by now but not everyone and that just won't do-so here he is, formally introducing himself. ]

Hullo all! Good morning! Or Afternoon-Evening? I suppose doesn't really matter-hopefully we're all well rested-or at least rested.

Anyway, I'm the Doctor-I'm here to help. Before you ask-no, not a medical doctor, though I can be if needed. Doctor is my name. No, I'm not human-don't tell me I look human-I don't. I do actually know something about the void just not as much as I'd like given the situation.

Now that that's out of the way, please, come talk to me. You can talk to me here, or come find me-I'll be in the standard coach drinking tea. Love meeting new people-you're all so fascinating-I mean that as a compliment by the way-so try not to take offense. And yes, I do mean you. I'd love to meet you all-and I expect to considering we're all sharing the same ride. No reason not to be friends, eh?

Well, I've taken up enough of your time, so erm.. as the young people say-hit me up.

Before I came here, the residents of the train chose a Council.

They chose unwisely.

You ask me to bend my knee to an unworthy leader, one who you have chosen for me. I will not. If my refusal to swear allegiance to one not of my land, not of my clan, and not of my choice is objectionable to you, then now is the time to bring your complaints to me. I await them.

[There is hot anger, and there is cold anger. This is cold anger. It brings out the formality in Edge as few things can.]

Let's see how this train is truly run.

[ She's been meaning to ask this for a while, but never got around to it. Until now! ]

So I know you've all just finished filling out Stark's questionnaire, but I've got another question for you. Short, this time.

This is for everyone, not just the new lot, by the way. And if you're just responding with audio, say your name before you talk, because there's a lot of us nowadays... Actually, say your name even if you're using the cameras.

[ Pause, as she remembers how to phrase the question ] Basically... What's your specialty? If you were known for something back home, or you've realised since getting here that you can do something that the rest of us can't, what is it?

[It's about an hour after the messages from Curufin and his mother. Your self-proclaimed leader is ready to 'lead' at you.]

Alright, we all heard the warning. Team leads, check in with your teammates both new ones and those who have been here awhile. We need people to volunteer making packs like the last mission for rations and supplies for everyone. Those with first-aid training should offer refresher courses or introduction demonstrations as we have some new people on board.

What kind of abilities and powers do we have on board that could assist with people who might be freezing? We need to brainstorm quick ways to make either potions or devices that we can give or use to prevent hypothermia.

They never give us much time with these things, so let's get on this.


[Second message not too long after the first.]

If anyone with a taser used it last mission and needs it fixed, let me know. If you'd like a taser, also let me know. These are specifically for those who aren't accustomed to fighting.
