Hello, Tranquility. [ For once, Carolyn's background isn't the shuttle bay. It's medbay instead, though she's not a patient. Simon can occasionally be seen in the background, doing... doctor-things. ] I'm Carolyn Fry. On this ship, I work on the flight crew; back home I was the pilot and captain of another ship. I've got a few things I'd like to talk about today.

First is the flight crew. We're always looking for more members -- we're responsible for the maintenance, repair, and upkeep of the shuttles as well as flying them. We've gotten more members over the last few months but we'd always like more. If you're interested, we just want to know a bit about your skills. If you don't have any experience with spacecraft or aircraft of any time, several of us work together to provide flight training. If you're interested, we have some sign-ups on the subnetwork as follows.

[ FLIGHT CREW SUBNETWORK PAGE ]

Second, I'm aware that many of the people on-board have never been in space before. If this applies to you or you're looking for a better understanding of this ship specifically, I'll be holding one of our semi-monthly [ jumply? ] space training courses in two hours. This jump's focus will be on medical situations and health thanks to Doctor Simon Tam, and as a result, we'll be meeting in the medbay. Dr. Tam will be reviewing space-specific medical concerns as well as general medical concerns, teaching people who to use the automated medical machines, and several other topics.

In addition, I'll be covering what we know about the Tranquility specifically and what's happened here, as well as what we know about this universe. There's a lot of information out there and while the anonymous information page is quite helpful, sometimes it's easier to hear about it from someone else. I haven't been here for all of it but I'll do my best to answer any questions, as will Dr. Tam -- and anyone else is welcome to offer insight as well. This is also a good chance to get to know everyone else stuck here, if that's your thing.

For those of you who've missed any prior sessions and are interested, please see the following subnetwork page. [ SPACE TRAINING SUBNETWORK PAGE ] If you have any suggestions on making these sessions more accessible or anything you'd like to see covered, please let me know.

[ Pausing to run a hand through her hair, there's a barely audible "I'm starting to sound like Kirk" before she continues. Time to fix that. ]

This is new to all of us, even those of us who've been in space before. If you've got sense, there's no reason not to use the resources on board in order to be better prepared to survive. We may have bars and beds but this isn't a pleasure cruise. People have died and if you don't take care of yourself and exercise some caution [ and not break into the shuttle bay, Zaeed ] then it could be you next.

I'll hopefully see all of you in medical in two hours. Try not to disturb anyone working in there.

[ Casey is grumbling on his end right now. Something about getting everyone killed. But he's not going to actually come out and say anything against the idea, or countermand Carolyn's judgement.

He does kick the ground though.

To fix the shuttle computers.

[ Grump grump grump. ]

Though I guess if he's doing that there's no harm in him learning while he's here.

[ What is he saying. ]

Who's going to do it?

Hmph.

Not much point complaining about it now, huh?
sugarbear: (Always serious)

[ Damn Carolyn. You are getting so good at micromanaging him. He grunts and hangs up. ]

I can do it.

[because that means actually going out in a shuttle, right? right?]

That's a great--

[ Danger, Will Robinson. Danger. ]

You know, I think I can probably handle it.

But I'm the best pilot aboard this ship. It would be easy for me to teach him.

[just ignore his arrogance there]

Now hold it there, fly boy. You might be something back on Tattooine, but you gotta earn that title out here.
darkforce: (.o74)

[personal profile] darkforce 2013-01-25 11:52 pm (UTC)(link)
[okay, no, hold on a second]

You know about Tattooine?
sugarbear: (Spies spy imagine that)

Obi-Wan told me.

[ Casey you liar. Quit that. ]
darkforce: (.oo2)

[personal profile] darkforce 2013-01-26 12:14 am (UTC)(link)
[well, that seems a little strange to him. but then, he doesn't know this obi-wan anywhere near as well as the knight he'll one day become.]

Then in that case, you also know that it was a long time ago. I've only gotten better since then.

Maybe you have. But we have a saying back on Earth--that's the planet I'm from. Pride comes before a fall.

A Jedi doesn't feel pride. I'm only stating a simple fact.

[even though he's well aware that he's taken a step beyond mere confidence in his abilities.]

If you don't want me to teach your friend, I won't.
sugarbear: (Always serious)

[personal profile] sugarbear 2013-01-26 12:48 am (UTC)(link)
[ Now who's the liar liar pants on fire. ]

He's not my friend. You want to teach him to fly, be my guest. Just don't listen to a word he says.
darkforce: (.o17)

How are you meant to teach somebody if you don't listen to them?
