ABOARD THE MOIRA
Whether adjusting to space travel has been difficult or not, there is always something to be done. From working to leisure, the Moira offers a multitude of opportunities to get to know your crewmates a bit better. Exploration of the ship is highly encouraged, but as another planet grows closer to being docked, things start to get a little hectic. You'll notice a slight change in the artificial gravity as the Moira is pulled into a gravitational field; however, more noticeable changes can be found in the overall morale as you prepare to descend.
☄ on your ownThere are plenty of other communal areas on the ship to explore! Pick a place, and see where it takes you. ( These scenarios can be used as in-game canon. ) C R O M I AWhile exhibits or museums exist to commemorate people or objects, planets like this are designed as a memoriam for certain eras across the universe. Welcome to Cromia—a one-of-a-kind place set in medieval times. Sort of. Most technology on Cromia isn’t particularly advanced, and the fashion leaves little to be desired. However, one thing is very noticeable about this planet once you decide to explore: there are no organic people anywhere to be found. Cromia is inhabited by a race of intelligent, humanoid robots who tend to and care for the environment as well as live peacefully with one another. Yet, some have been programmed to show a certain disdain for those who are, in some way, living, and their hostility ranges between hurling insults and vegetables to reporting trespassers to the authorities. Besides that, all seems well and prosperous on Cromia.
☄ the emperor’s new servosThe Royal Family of Cromia has extended an invitation to join them for festivities, food, and drink beginning when the first sun sets. This night is a way to relax and perhaps romance that special someone in your life with a little song and dance. For those who sample certain drinks, they might find themselves doing just that without being able to help themselves. Or perhaps that delicious wine you've heard so much about is actually a very oily concoction meant for the robots of Cromia. For others, a little cheese or venison might instill the need for fisticuffs. Could the desserts hold the same sort of enchantment? Do you dare to find out? ☄ catch-a-riiiideThe fastest way to get around is via carriage in the city, and each city is pulled by a large insectoid cyborg. Their handlers assure you they’re quite tame, especially since their silly organic minds have been implanted with a control chip. They’ll take you to whatever destination you program in without a hiccup! What could go wrong? Except on the way, that ever-so-important control chip happens to malfunction. Your once docile bug-stallion is now running amok down the streets. Do you jump out before you meet a sticky end? Or do you take control and force it to stop? Either way, you aren’t likely to be getting your deposit back from this. ☄ taste the rainbowArchery. Bugback riding. Jousting. These are the typical leisure activities suiting the time period you now find yourself in, which is what you might assume when you see the banners denoting a competition. Anyone can enter. Anyone can win the prizes. When you ask what sport you’ll have to play, they just say one word: skittles. Similar to bowling, this sport is played on a long, flattened field, and the point of it is to use the wooden ball to knock over the "skittles" that are set up in increasingly complex patterns for each round. These skittles are also made of wood, exactly ten feet high each, and the balls used vary from the size of a golf ball to a canon ball (dealer’s choice on ball size). People are usually split into teams, but for the sake of the competition, everyone plays alone. Whoever gets the most points moves forward in the competition, and hope that there are no accidents mid-throw!

[Why is small talk so hard?]
Been to many planets since you got kidnapped for this crew?
no subject
[he makes a vague noise of annoyance.]
Alright, so the first planet we're on when I arrive is called Emiri, right? They're super into romantic matches or something equally weird. I'm there for two seconds and somehow a civil war starts? I don't even know how, but I'm none too keen on getting involved in another one. So I guess we all just get back in the ship and totally bail because it was their government being creeps with the pairing, so that explains that.
[you've set him off now, arcee. he won't stop!]
Thheeen we found another planet with giant flying whales on it which was actually kind of nice! I lost my arm though. Long story short, the whales do not like to be ridden! Only one way to find something like that out, really. Then I got eaten by one trying to do something totally not stupid! Got stuck in it's... whatever. Tank? With Megatron for a few days. Talk about bad company! Then more stupid stuff happened I didn't pay attention to, scraplets and now this!
...
It's been... I mean, it's a little slower than the last ship I was on but. Eh. Ehhhh.
no subject
Megatron is one of those names and now she's back in your personal space and maybe five seconds from reaching up and yanking you down to eye level there buddy.]
Did you just say Megatron is here as well?
[Remember when you were first worried about her stabbing tendencies? Might want to revisit those.]
no subject
the worst thing? she doesn't know. he hates how little he thinks things through sometimes.]
Yes. But! He's defected! To the Autobots and is mega regretful and-- Optimus made him our captain and he keeps trying to talk to me and it's. Bad. Really, really bad.
no subject
Tell me where he is.
[Now she knows you're talking nonsense, Megatron defecting of his own choice, and Optimus letting him lead a group is clearly a delusion.]
I have an unfinished task in regards to him.
no subject
[he can tell he is about to get stabbed or shot or screamed at. maybe all 3. he even stands up to his full height again to avoid her going for his beautiful face.]
You know what he'll do? He'll just wait until you tire yourself out, not even moving or being scratched then lecture you. I've seen it happen. Whatever you're thinking, it's not going to be satisfying.
no subject
Only if he sees me before I get a shot off.
[If she can get him in the back of the neck she might be able to sever a line enough for him to bleed out before he swats her away.]
His blade was in my face when I ended up here, I think having my blade in his face would be a settling of the score.
no subject
[wait]
His blade? What? He's been on the Lost Light for the last six months and as ridiculous as it sounds... I'm pretty sure he has not tried to stab anyone. Pointedly, in fact!
[pun not intended.]
no subject
[A Megatron is still a Megatron.]
Somehow that doesn't make the need to kill him lessen all that much. The buddy buddy thing I saw once and it turned out badly once he got an advantage. Maybe yours is just more patient.
[And sane, but let's not hold out hope on that one.]
no subject
[there's a fair amount of sympathy in his tone, though he's not sure how well received it'll be. he's essentially trying to stop her from shooting someone he, also, would very much like to shoot.]
He's doing it very well, if that's the case. He's been working closely with Ultra Magnus and Rodimus and hasn't murdered either of them yet. [riptide decides not to mention The Rumours of megs and mags.] I mean, if it makes you feel any better I've told him to his face I hate him and we'd be better off if he was dead and I think it just made him kinda sad.
no subject
I don't know whether to ask what altering substance someone managed to give him or worry if something in the universe broke at a Megatron not trying to cause mass murder to start his day off right.
no subject
That's... also what we thought. I don't know what Bee said to him but... man, it worked.
no subject
[And a posture that was sorta starting to relax snaps back to rigid form for a moment, because she has no idea what this Megatron has or has not done.]
He doesn't actually hear Unicron speaking to him or anything does he?
no subject
[he gives arcee A Look.]
I've heard of Galvatron but not Unicron... man, Decepticons really like their names ending in "tron", don't they?
no subject
[Arcee would rather be on a triple monitor duty shift then explain the whole Unicron and Primus thing okay.]
"Wave" is also a popular one, maybe it's some odd requirement for officer positions...next to insanity that is.
no subject
[he snorts.]
Can you imagine? Arceemus. Riptideimus. Natural as ever.
no subject
[Is that a small smile? Possibly.]
no subject
Optimusiumus.
[he says, then breaks out into giggles.]
no subject
You won with that one Riptideimus.
no subject
[these nerds...]
