captain's log | 015 | voice
[Jim addresses the network with prim efficiency this jump. his voice, curiously, is devoid of most of the warmth and infectious rabel-rousing it normally has. instead, it's clipped and professional; the voice of a captain stating facts and orders. anyone who has been around a while will know that something is off, and as he goes on, it becomes clear why.]
Tranquility this is Jim Kirk. To anyone joining us, welcome, and to anyone returning, welcome back.
I know you all have questions. Myself and those who have been on board for a while will be happy to answer any that you have, but before doing so I'll clear some of the more obvious ones up.
You're on the space ship Tranquility, a colonization vessel in a parallel universe to your own. The year is 938 A.E., and presently, we have no way of returning anyone to their home continuum. We ask, instead, that you lend a hand in the running of the ship. This isn't mandatory, but we are all that's left of a crew. Even if you have no previous experience on a starship, we'll be able to find a place for you.
Attached to this broadcast is what we have of a map of the ship. It's a rough outline, as we've found corridors spontaneously change, commonly with each jump. I ask everyone to be cautious when moving about the ship, and to avoid engaging the entity commonly known as "Smiley" on board.
[here, the pauses briefly, the crux of his attitude coming to light.]
Presently, I'd like anyone with information on missing persons to come forward. Dean Winchester and Doctor Leonard McCoy have both disappeared from our number, and I have the feeling they aren't the only ones.
Kirk out.

I meant to contact you sooner, but I've got what you asked for from Strela.

I take it you're a scientist, sir?

Kirk. Jim Kirk. Captain of the U.S.S Enterprise in my own universe.

[Or something like that.]</small. But not Captain of this boat, right?

That being said he and Resnik know more about this ship than we do, and we'd be wise to take what they say into consideration. Whenever they turn up, at least.
no subject
What are they exactly, these.. black holes? Why would their existence aboard this ship be impossible?
permavoice btw
A black hole- [god how does he explain this in laymen's terms.] is a region of spacetime where gravity prevents anything, including light, from escaping. Even getting close to one in space would result in it's massive gravitational pull sucking your ship in and crushing it to dust. It can consume anything, including planets.
[and he suddenly pauses, lifting one hand to the bridge of his nose. the sudden rise of pain that comes with the memory of Vulcan's destruction is so harsh that it borders on the meld he'd had with the Ambassador, and tears prick the back of his eyes.]
also permavoice!!
he keeps his own level and tries not to pry, though it seems he is doing so indirectly.]
Then the ones that were present on this ship-- are present.. they are capable of such things as well? Yet the vessel remains curiously undamaged by them, from what I gather. But will it remain thus indefinitely?
no subject
It normally doesn't matter what size the singularity is, it'll still cause damage. There is zero reason that those singularities in the ship haven't torn this place apart by now. [a beat, that didn't answer the question.] We don't know. If we're lucky, they might just fizzle out. If we aren't, they'll get bigger and our smiling friend will be the least of our worries.
no subject
And if they neither vanish nor enlarge? If they remain in those halls indefinitely, I think it unwise to leave the area open for exploration. [considering the damage they can do to someone.]
no subject
Unfortunately even I can't stop people from exploring. I can only caution people on where not to go.
