[Shuttle]
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?

This could be fun depending on when Ezra's from

Leia was happy to see another kid around. Sure, he was significantly older than she was, but still, it was nice not to be the only one among all these grown ups. She giggled a little at his confusion; the food here was certainly new, but it was hardly the strangest thing she'd ever eaten.

"Yeah, it's food," she assured him. "You should try some of that, by the way; it's really good. A little sweet and a little spicy, but not too much of either." She was indicating what looked like a dish of different colored cooked vegetables in a reddish sauce.

Oh from the end of S2 for maximum effect

[personal profile] helmetcollector 2016-04-04 02:21 am (UTC)(link)
"Thanks," He'll smile and give her a nod. He's never been great with kids, but she seems bright and certainly with it enough that he doesn't have to dumb anything down for her.

"Anything else I should try, this all seems really.... different? Yeah I'm going to go with different. It's not waffles, that's for sure."
princess_weia: (Default)

Excellent. XD

"Welcome," she said.

"Hmmm... that pink fruit is good if you add sweetener to it; otherwise it's really sour," she said. "I found that out the hard way. And those rolls are good too. They have bits of meat and vegetables inside, so they're specially good if you don't have a lot of time to eat."

"But yeah, I miss having waffles too," she said. "'Specially the kind with chocolate chips in them. Those are the best."

Just so Ezra can be very confused by Leia

[personal profile] helmetcollector 2016-04-04 02:30 pm (UTC)(link)
"I think I'm going to miss waffles if they don't have any here. But I can't say I've had the chocolate hip ones. Sounds like I'm missing out." He said, reaching and taking a few different items she suggested before moving along to go and try to find a place to sit.

"I'm Ezra, by the way."
princess_weia: (Default)

Looking forward to all the confusion. :D

[personal profile] princess_weia 2016-04-09 02:33 am (UTC)(link)
Leia nodded. "They're even better with muja sauce and whipped cream," she said. "That's my favorite thing to have for breakfast ever. And they're extra special when my daddy back home makes them himself; he likes to cook, but he's usually too busy, so when he gets to it's always nice."

Leia got her own food and followed after Ezra. "Nice to meet you," she said. "I'm Leia."
helmetcollector: courtesy of <user name="eflat"> (:D)

Soooo much :D

[personal profile] helmetcollector 2016-04-09 03:24 am (UTC)(link)
"I don't think I've had muja sauce on anything since I was about your age. But it's nice to meet you, you're the seconds Leia I've met. I didn't think it was a popular name." He'll laugh and find them a table far enough away from the main cafeteria so they wouldn't be bothered by too much foot traffic.

"Have you ever tried meiloroons? I think they're one of my favourites."
princess_weia: (Default)

Wait til he finds out she'd Force-Sensitive too. XD

[personal profile] princess_weia 2016-04-09 06:16 am (UTC)(link)
"That's too bad," she said. "It's good on lots of things. Meiloroons are good too, though, but we don't have them very often. Usually only if we're going to cook something that needs them."

"I've never met any other Leias before, though," she said. "Or Ezras. But most of the people I get to meet back home are my Mommy and Daddy's friends, so I wouldn't call them by their first names anyway. What's the other Leia you met like?"
