.002 The Fleet's Test Drive Meme
The Fleet: Test Drive Meme. 2. Comment with your thread start, with your character name and fandom in the subject line. 3. Tag into other's threads. 4. Have fun! 5. And what happens on the TDM defaults to staying on the TDM (it's not taken in game), unless all players involved agree AND you have mod approval to c&p the thread to the log comm. You must get mod approval. **If you have questions, ask the Mods You've arrived! You've been seen by a coolly efficient (what you hope is a) medical professional - after all they did give you a shot of something. Then you were handed a slew of things you're still trying to process - communication devices, a ring (which is also a key?), a piece of transparent film that's flashing information. And clothing, that was a thoughtful gesture. And then there was the explanation - You've been taken (isn't that a nice way of saying 'kidnapped') by that floating orb of light, you can't leave, but while you're here you get room and board. Is that really a fair trade? Oh, and to top everything off, you have a set of gem like stones set into your chest, that you can't remove. Before you know it, you've moved with the crowd towards the shuttle and now that you are sitting down, it's now suddenly sinking in. You are so very far from home. [NOTE: Please note that the actual arrival process is different from the above scenario - please see the New Arrivals Page for a detailed explanation of the arrival process.] [Cafeteria] You’re hungry, and though the smells coming from the cafeteria are strange, they are alluring. The grumble in your belly tells you it’s worth chancing. [Multipurpose Common Area] You’re bored but haven’t quite worked up the courage to venture out into the greater parts of the station. The common area of the residential community seems like it might provide some distractions. And the view out the large windows lining one wall is simply stunning. [The Center Station Central Gardens] In an environment where spatial expansion is finite, it seems extravagant to house a garden this big. What looks like giant trees at first glance, turn outo be the wire structures that rise up six stores before fanning out actually house various breeds of creeping vines. There are two levels of raised walkways that wind around the vine structures. The ground level also wraps lazily through various plots of vegetation. There is enough variety of plants here to keep anyone interested for hours. [Cemetery Ring] If you’re in more for a somber atmosphere, the Cemetery Ring is open to everyone. The first sign posted outside the door reads "We are the lights that shines brightest against the night." The sign below it simply says "All are welcome." This wide corridor, that traverses the whole very top of the Inner Rings, is dimly lit, but pinpoints of light twinkle all over the wall. The wall juts out in an effort to create more surface area for memorials to those Owmi who have passed on to the next life since the Owmi started their nomadic journey. The peacefulness of the room is inviting. [Strange Lights - previous plot] Something strange is happening. You've been here just a few days and before you can even get used to the fact you are an abductee of a glowing ball of light, you now have an aura of lights hanging around your head. The colors change, and if you watch them for a moment (from a mirror - they are hard to get a good look of out of the corner of your eye) you notice they match the colors of the gem like stones fixed to your chest. And if you're really observant, you might catch on that the colors and intensity of the lights change with your mood. [Pinkie Pie's Fun Day Celebration - previous plot] Confetti/Glitter Bombs! Sometimes there’s a pair of eyes watching various residents going in and out of their rooms. Or walking around the habitat station at various places. Wherever your character may be, Pinkie is waiting with a bucket full of confetti or glitter. She forgets which one she takes with her since she prepared so many for this day. How she’s getting around without being noticed is a mystery, but that works just fine for her! Common Area Mingling! At the common area, Pinkie has the entire place decked out with balloons, confetti, several piñatas hanging from the ceiling (how did they get up there?!), and an area set up for games. She couldn’t find the actual games like the ones back home, so she had to make them herself. There’s chess, Twister, but instead of boring circles, there’s images of pink icing-covered donuts, chocolate chip cookies, blue cupcakes, and pistachio ice cream cups taped to the floor in four rows of ten, a place to play card games with images of herself in various costumes along with the card suits. There are several cakes with names attached to them on any table she could find. There’s one large cake with no name for everyone and everypony to share! It’s oddly plain, isn’t it? Not suspicious at all! There’s also snacks like fruit, cheese, crackers, cookies, and drinks to enjoy! No alcohol, though! Sorry! This party is rated G! And of course the party has piñata. A blindfold and stick are ready for the first challenger! Choose any piñata there! One looks dangerous! They’re filled with candy! Or confetti! Or both! “Step right up, ladies and gentlecolts! Try your luck and break open a piñata!” [NOTE: Please note that Pinkie Pie is no longer in game, so she will not be responding to any threads using this option.] [Planet Exploration: Baj E'oku Prime - current plot] A new opportunity! No longer do you need to wander the giant space Habitat Station. You now get the opportunity to explore a section of the planet Baj E'oku Prime. It's small, tidal locked planet. The area you can explore is dusty and red with surprising wild life. There are canyons and highlands, rivers and caves to explore. (See link for greater details.) What adventures or trouble will you find? |

Narcissa was happy for an excuse to pocket some bit of fruit and bread but leave the rest of the food on a table. She had something far better to sustain her now, if her husband was here then so too might the rest of her family. And nothing could stand against them were they united.
She was, however silently she made it, concerned over the pallid drawn lines of his face. He still held himself with pride but there was something taken out of him, something missing. “Where are we going?” She asked once they were out of earshot of the masses.
no subject
As much as he was pleased to have his wife by his side once more, he still couldn't help but worry about their son. Nor, did he really want his wife to have the same fate as he had. He tried to hide his own concerns for now.
"How much were you able to learn from their greeting upon their arrival?" Lucius questioned once they were out of ear shot. He would hate to repeat himself and this would give him an idea of what she did or didn't know.
no subject
“I understand we are here, against our wills. Home is somewhere far away and,” She waved all that away for the moment, she could only hold off for so long. “What’s happened to you Lucius? Have they done this?” Her hands, soft and surprisingly warm cupped his face. He was still regal and proud but there was a hollowness to it like majestic ruins falling but still magnificent.
If anyone had hurt her family there would be a price, she was demure but when it came to her loved ones she was every bit as fierce as her sister. Perhaps even more so given she had made a family, a home, a life when her sister had given all to serve. Narcissa could discuss this place later, for now she was only concerned with Lucius, and when they could find him, Draco.
no subject
"This place was not responsible...I had failed in a mission," Lucius carefully explained. It was clear in his eyes that it pained him to speak of this time. "I was taken to Azkaban for my crimes..."
There was a pause as he debated on going into more detail or not. This had been a dark time for his family. "What-what is the last thing you remember before arriving here?"
no subject
"He commanded it, didn't he? He's always asked too much, taken too much form his followers." Her words were hushed but sharp. She herself had never joined the Death Eaters, but half her family had and her own husband.
"Draco was home for holiday, after the tournament I had a devil of a time talking him out of Drumstrang again. It's too far from us, I can't bear him that far away." So things had indeed escalated, and her family was to suffer for it.
no subject
"Can you blame him? He got to spend time with the Drumstrang students....I only wish we had agreed to letting him go. He would have been safer." He regretfully admitted. At the same time he understood Narcissa's desires to keep her son safe, but knowing what he now knew he wish they had let him go.
no subject
"Perhaps it would be best, would have been." Correcting the tense for both their points of view.
