domesheriff

[Linda is sitting on a bench in the garden when she activates the feed. she's dressed casually in a coat and jeans, though her right hand visibly has a bandage around it. she looks tired, and she's obviously fallen in some mud at some point today as well]

Anybody else having trouble learning to ride their animals? [there's weariness in her tone. but a thought occurs to her then, and she adds:] Are many people going to be in the race? I know it's optional.

[while the mud is a result of her rocky attempts to learn to ride a "yoshi," her burned hand isn't. it's been a busy day, starting with testing forcefields with Agent K to try to find one like the dome followed by her riding session on the farm. needless to say, relaxing for a bit chatting with friends strikes her as a good way to end an exhausting day]

givessweetness

Just out of curiosity. If it's too sensitive a topic, I understand. But how do you find a way to deal with. Being here when you just as well could be there. [Not that Wynter could just be there... he doesn't think.]

Current Mood: discontent

[His message is quick, because he's nervous and new. Visscher came back for the project to rebuild, just in case more of the same misfortunes happened. He doesn't know if it's a good idea or not, but he might as well reintroduce myself.]

Most of the people I knew when I was first around seemed to have departed.

But I am Utrecht Visscher. I am a qualified physician in my universe, and a general practitioner by interstellar standards.

It's a pleasure and I will do my best to assist.

schrodingerscatalyst

Okay, I know I shouldn't panic yet because my father runs off more than a toddler on a sugar high but... [And he mops his face with one hand]

Has anyone seen Walter lately?

[[ooc: please pretend this was on-time ;; stupid illness]]

vengeance_driven

[Public | Video]

[Once Niko's comfortably back in his home (because he had to check on his beast, which is scarfing food in the background and his big giant hound is sniffing at it like nothing at all was wrong in the past day), Niko decides to let people know he's alive.]

[He's so angry that he flipped Jeffer's network sensor on by accident. So his swears get replaced by madlib holes of hateful silence. He's still dirty, and tired, and looks like he's ready to tear off someone's face.]

What is that ▬▬▬ English saying about death being exaggerated. Yeah. Something like that.

I know a certain traitorous piece of ▬▬▬ I would like a word with, though. Where are you?! You ▬▬▬ coward son of a ▬▬▬! I'm going to find you even if you don't tell me, so might as well make this easy and not make me any more ▬▬▬ off, ▬▬▬.

[He doesn't actually stick around. He's seen turning it off and leaving. He'll be back later. But he's too pissed.]

OOC: All responses on the network will be after the actual spam thread. No worries, he's not actually going to do anything. He's leaving that to other people.

archeologue

[Belloq remains in the clothes he was wearing during the expedition of earlier, the pith helmet off his head, but the safari suit dirty and stained from a day crawling about the jungle. His head is bowed in remorse.]

I am sorry to report that Niko Bellic, wilderness guide, fell today in the course of his duty.

I will not distress with details, but only say that we were taken by surprise by a swarm of skeleton archers while exploring a temple. Niko fought bravely, and I owe my life to him. He is a credit to all who risk their lives leading us through the dangerous wilds. May the psychopomp guide him to peace.

I will be at Pugsy's tonight, raising a glass in remembrance, if any would like to join me there.

[And the lie is done. Even Belloq doesn't exactly know where that temple was. Niko, as guide, had that knowledge. There is little chance that someone will find Niko before he really is dead. And Belloq's done his duty to the Orion Syndicate, for which he'll be paid well.]

((OOC: Feel free to network reply or action spam at Pugsy's))

athousandcurses

I know that we are here voluntarily, and as such this may seem like an odd question to ask...

How do you adjust to not only come from a different planet, but a universe where everything is different? Does it make you happy or do you feel ever more homesick? I have heard it said that something familiar changed only a bit can be more unsettling than something completely alien.

Okay, so. This is a friendly reminder for everyone for the holidays. Some humans import mistletoe. It looks like this.

Attached: mistletoe.jpg

They are a parasitic plant that grows out of trees. They're a symbol of Christmas fertility and affection and if you stand underneath a sprig with someone it is custom that you kiss. This is not a custom that you should feel forced to engage in and if you choose to, no further physical expectations are expected to accompany it. This custom predates the spread of Christianity throughout Europe and is based in Druidic customs.

Most importantly, if you've never seen this plant before, do not eat the berries. They are poisonous to humans. It contains something called phoratoxin which can lead to blurred vision, nausea, abdominal pain, diarrhea, blood pressure changes, or possibly death. It isn't terribly common here so it shouldn't be a terrible problem, though I'm aware that some people here have had limited experience with fruits and berries that are common to the rest of us. Use caution in this case

[Locked to Security | Text]

Stop by my office. We got a little bit of a problem.

schrodingerscatalyst

[Have a man who smiles tightly, with no real warmth behind it. Like a courier who's come with some horrible news.]

Hi. I'm Peter Bishop and let's just get this out of the way: yes, for all intents and purposes I am Walter Bishop's son. Please try not to hold that against me. Oh-- and if he gets into any trouble, let me know. [He thinks for a second, head dipped down slightly] Actually, make that when he gets into any trouble.

Anyway, I've got some experience with the FBI so the Resort's decided to bring me on as an investigator. Try not to hold that against me either. I'm not here to bust anybody's chops. Just want to make sure the wrong tech doesn't fall into the wrong hands. So if you need any help, uh. [And like that, he's lost momentum. How do you end these things.]

I'll be around.

because_its_cool

[A man appears on screen. He looks startled for a moment before a grin spreads across his face.]

Marvelous! Not nearly as impressive as my transportation here, but nevertheless, Peter never let me near a communications device with this sort of capability. I don't know what he thought I was going to do with it...

[pause]

Oh, yes! My name is Doctor Walter Bishop, and I will be employed in the laboratories in the museum here near the resort establishment. I would be delighted to speak to whomever sees to the manufacture and maintenance of the transporter, as I'd be interested to find out how I was able to move through space/time without my atomic structure resembling a plate of scrambled eggs.

[another pause]

I shall have to make some eggs as soon as I unpack. Perhaps before.

[Oh, how he wants to get his hands on the spawner in his room.]

folkscallmewander

[Wander clears his throat before he makes the announcement.]

Hey! So, I was talkin' with some folks here an' their plans for this month, and some of them mentioned that lotsa humans have holidays at this time of year! An' they give each other presents! So I was thinkin': why don't we celebrate it together!

Now, we all love gifts, so I came up with somethin' we all can do. [He takes off his hat and holds up upside down.] We can all get someone's name at random, like, drawin' 'em from a hat. Then, we need to buy or make a present for that person, but without tellin' 'em anythin'. Then we can all meet up for a party next month and exchange them!

So whaddya say? Anyone wanna join in on the fun?

athousandcurses

[Grainne's sitting when the feed comes on, her hair carefully brushed and plaited, and with a pensive look on her face.]

The town seems quiet after all the excitement, though I still see the skeletons from time to time outside of the bounds. I wonder if it is safe to go exploring now. I did not get very long to explore this world before the quarantine came.

As much as I would like to go on my own, it would not be wise. Would anyone wish to accompany me on a several day expedition?

usfuzzies

Harry Mudd is one of our new vendors.

Harry Mudd.

If you're considering buying anything -- houseplant, pet, 'innocent decoration', from that man-- consider otherwise. He's a menace and he should be banned from being within twenty meters of livestock and produce let alone handling it-!

If he tells you it's neutered don't believe him, if he tells you it's 'not dangerous' remember that some systems only define 'dangerous' as 'predatory, noxious, or aggressive'. Gimlian moss barnacles aren't dangerous by that definition, and they've destroyed more ships with clogged fuel exhaust ports than I've had field rations.

Harry Mudd-!

[He cuts the feed with a wordless snarl of frustration]
