004 ☠ video

_{[ This evening is a mournful evening for room 008 092. Jake was resting earlier today, taking a nap and enjoying the fact he received several items from his locker from the tenth wave. One happens to be a skulltop, in which is a wearable computer system and looks something like this. Along with the skulltop, Jake was also blessed with two leg holsters, replica of those that Lara Croft wears in Tomb Raider, and some various movie posters from back home, one with Mystique on it.

What he didn't expect to find after his nap was a pile of other belongings, along with a note. The other items are as listed:
A broken sword for a weapon, known as a Royal Deringer, typically equipped to Dave Strider. He also found a Smurfette plushie, several triangle shades and a shirt with an orange hat on it, neatly folded. All these items very characteristic of his best friend, Dirk Strider.

A note was also attached.

Frantically, he tried to contact them, along with Davesprite for good measure, all over the network, but got no replies. Even when he went to the room donned the Strider crib, he found it absolutely vacant. There was a process of panicking, perhaps some hyperventilating, and some flipping out on his own.

When he finally composes himself, he posts a video to the network, clearly still upset. ]}

... Has anybody seen the Striders? I am trying not to jump to any rash conclusions here like they have been evaporated by some sci-fi-esque movie flick monster but...

_{[ The boy gasps for air. ]}

I am vexed beyond comprehension right now. I apologize if I come off as incoherent.
But I need my best friends here. Please tell me they're still here and you have seen them. I would be obliged.

_{[[ ooc: if you knew davesprite, dirk strider or dave strider, they're all taking their leave and might have left you something behind with a similar note! more about this here. ]]}

I've got nothing, but I suddenly have way more smuppets than I did the other day.

Sorry, dude. [ She means that. ]

_{[ Oh! He remembers you.. vaguely. ]}
More smuppets? He gave away all of his smuppets to you or something? Am I hearing that correctly?

[ FAIRY BULL CUDDLES ]

Not all of them, not by a long shot, but... some of them.

[All he's got left is a pajama cape. In any other scenario? Awesome.

In this case? Sad cat.]

I can't find Dave anywhere, Jake.

_{[ He gets a response from Asato while he's replying to Jaye, and he bristles up. ]}

That's because he upped and ditched us like a little ninnytwatter!

_{[ Oops. Still not really understanding the process of people disappearing like this. ]}

He didn't!

[His ears fold back after his exclamation, his eyes darting to the side.]

He wouldn't just do that for no reason.

Best friends, huh? [ That makes him a little, er, sad. ] If they're not here, maybe they found a way off this thing without telling anyone.

Precisely!!!
DOUCHEBAGS!

_{[ A pause. ]}

Excuse my excessive crude language! I'm merely being dramatic here.
I... I really don't want to think Dirk and his brothers would do something like this though.. but the way they presented me with gifts and a note makes it seem that way!

[ And this is why he actually likes talking to Jake. He's just going to laugh forever. ] Hey. [ A cough. No he's not choking on his own laughter. Why would you ever think such a thing. ] Hey. Whatever the reason, shouldn't you be happy for 'em? No one wants to be stuck here forever. Right?

[He looks quite sympathetic as he clicks on his communicator.]

I'm sorry, Jake. I-- they might simply have gone back home. That happens quite often around here.

Does it..? Even without explanation?
Are.. are they alright and everything?

I think so. I can't say for certain, but-- that seems to be the general consensus. I know it can't be much comfort, but there's that, at least.

Have you looked-? I mean, maybe-

[ oh, that explains the smuppet, then. oh. :( ]

Jake... I'm really sorry.

Ahhhhhhh, Raven.
Shit, I'm such a mess, I'm really sorry. I'm typically not this pussy over things but.. it all seems rather suspicious they all disappeared together with goodbye presents and the works.

[nill doesn't know this young man. but she knows dirk and dave and davesprite, and she knows something is up. there was a spinny chair with some chalk and a smuppet and a stuffed rabbit outside her door, like a parting gift. she doesn't like it, not one bit.

she is clutching the bunny in one arm, her wings pressed close to her back. she types with her free hand.]

have not seen them
worried

Edited 2012-09-11 12:31 (UTC)

YOURE worried!!!!
Think of me!! Strider and i have been tight bros ever since we were not even teenagers! We were comfortable joking about all sorts of shit.. you know. One of those kinds of friendships!
I was growing really fond of his siblings as well!!

[Topher holds up his recently retrieved copy of Detective Pony, showing a page with Dirk's characteristic orange typeface. It's both to show Jake the book and to cover up how depressed he looks. On the table in front of him sits a fancy Santa figurine and a pair of what appear to be Dirk's sunglasses.]

I don't think they had a yard sale recently...

_{[ Jake sets his jaw tight, looking at the items. ]}

Gosh. He really left some sort of mark on this ship if he knew so many people.
_{[ A sigh. ]}

Sir, I feel sick to my stomach over this. I'm not sure what plan of action I should take.

I... I'm almost absolutely sure. They did say goodbye.

We can look for them. If they are yet here, we can find them.

Ah, chap. It's a grand ship indeed, but it just wouldn't make sense for them to still be here unless this is some large, extravagant prank.
