[The feed clicks on to show Miles Edgeworth, James Kirk and Tyke gathered around the head of the table in the Security office. Kirk is standing between the two, Tyke leaning far back in her seat, while the rigidity of Edgeworth’s posture seems to be trying to make up enough formality for all of them.]
Good day. This is Miles Edgeworth of the Security Department, speaking to you alongside Tyke, the head of Security, and James Kirk of the Gunnery crew. What we bring before you today is the new formation of the Exploratory Team.
[Tyke cuts in, there, expression tense and harshly annoyed.]
Before any of you start getting excited over that name, we’re doing this for those of you who think two deaths and one maiming still makes the dark parts of the ship look like a fun fucking time. You might wanna ignore common sense and us, but our job is to keep you safe, which means we can’t ignore you.
[Edgeworth glances over slightly at the profanity, but doesn’t react any more than that.] There may be some among you who will want to turn off this broadcast right now; you may think that you’re already qualified to simply go out there by yourselves. However, there are a few very good reasons why you’d not wish to do that.
First: the entire purpose of this initiative is indeed to keep you alive. “Highly qualified people” have already gone out there, and they have perished, as shall you if you decide that you, a highly qualified person, can act alone. Second, going through the teams means that you’ll not only have other trained people to watch your back, but you’ll also have access to critical supplies. Food, for instance. And weaponry, from the Gunnery crew.
[Kirk bumps in here, both palms flat on the table, and when he leans toward the camera the light catches in the silver at his temple.]
We know we can’t stop any of you going out there, and we aren’t going to try. We’re offering you the option of going out in teams to let us know when and where you’re going. This is both so we can keep track of everyone and so we know the general direction to head in if you get in trouble. That, and there’s a safety in numbers. Those things hunt in packs and they’re smart. If you get ambushed, you may come out less than fortunate.
[see, Erik Lensherr]
Anyone going out should first check into Security with your group. You’ll be required to have at least one person that knows first aid and to have a weapon. As Edgeworth said, if you’re unarmed and you’re going into the ship, contact the Gunnery and we can discuss letting you borrow a firearm. If you don’t have a group, talk to us and we can form one for you.
[Tyke leans in from her seat, finally. And it’s probably a deliberate choice that she’s only wearing a tank top rather than a hoodie or her jump suit, her own encounter with the manticores clearly evident in the large bite scarred around her right shoulder.]
Gonna say again, this isn’t for everyone to get to head out there. This is us making it so anyone who is really gonna insist on it does it as safe as we can manage. You don’t have the people, we’ll get you in with some. You don’t have the skills, we’ll get you training. We don’t need more people dying if there’s shit we can be doing to prevent it.
[Edgeworth nods once.]
I’ll be handling the administrative side of this. Contact me if you want to register for being formed into a group, or if you have a pre-formed group but wish training or supplies. The smartest thing you can do, if you’re considering heading out there, is sitting down and considering whether your life truly is worth so little on-board this ship. The smartest thing you can do is consider: will people truly miss me so little that I can throw away my life by going out there?
The second-smartest thing you can do is at least go out there prepared. And that’s what we’re ensuring.
[Kirk glances to Edgeworth with that little bit of advice, but doesn’t let the curious frown come through in his expression. he looks back to the camera.]
We’ll be here to answer any questions you have.
[and he reaches forward to end the transmission]
[ooc: And thank you for your collective attention, Tranquility! Use this post to ask questions and to form groups if you’d like. Jump each other! Go wild! Meanwhile, if you’d like to have your characters sign up to join groups, hit up this ooc post here.
LOVELY MAGENTA is for Edgeworth, blue is for Tyke, gold is for Kirk.]

I would strongly advise against pretty much everyone else going solo.
[Yes Kirk that means he's going to go alone when he dives in YOU CAN'T STOP HIM FROM DOING THAT OKAY.]

[ And we all know where Sam's attention is really going—the tattoo on Tyke of the no-no demon go away variety. An anti-possession tattoo. His question is left to float, but his eyes are settled on the place of interest.
He's going to be brief and gesture at that spot. Not exactly the sort of look you give to another member of the club, but 'why?' Why does she have that? ]

[And it's probably a good thing she recognises you and knows what you're asking, Sam, otherwise it just looks like you're staring at her chest.]

Daylen hates these things, things that are beyond his comprehension, but they are a good source of information and many seem to commonly communicate using them in stead of sending a note or seeing them in person. He supposes it is the local equivalent, in that sense.
He would much rather be writing an actual letter or speaking in person.
Still, one does what one can. Adapt to the local environment to survive. He'd been thinking about doing this anyway, and there's no time like the present. ]
Do those within the security department proper have the chance to be included within exploratory groups?
I wish to offer my services, and am happy to give references from others within the ship alongside a history of my capabilities, however I would also greatly wish to support any teams who head deeper into this place to understand its secrets.
If that would be considered a conflict in some way, or pull me too far from prospective duties, I can understand.

I'd love to join the... Exploratory Team.
[His voice kinda drips with wow that's a bland name but he at least doesn't outright say it, right? In any case, he looks totally content with risking life and limb out in hallways.
REMEMBER ME, EDGEWORTH? I WENT OUT THERE ONCE!
We totally got permission to and everything.]
I'm really low maintenance and you don't even have to teach me how to play dead or trim my claws.

Well. You've experience already, and you went through the proper channels; I should think you'd be a good addition.

Not sure I want to join, but I wouldn't mind being sent out there if there's a group that needs an extra person. I'm pretty useful. I think. [ i.e., when he's not too busy being a brat. ]

Murphy Pendleton, zero-zero-six zero-seven-three, has been missing for days now. I talked to his gi- roommate, she hasn't seen him either, and we know he hasn't vanished because messages are still going through to his communicator. When you have teams together, could you see to it that at least one of them is looking out for him?
[She's trying really hard to sound official. Fucks that right up when her voice cracks on the next sentence.]
A good one, please.

[The jump's in a couple of days, after all. They didn't want to risk people not making it back in time.]
He leave any sign that he's gone out there?

but it isnt official teams or an official department
but we still have to register & submit to being organised & do paperwork
which by the way do you expect reports on your desks following these expeditions?
[a small pause and he adds:]
also first aid is just medicine right?

And if you're going to complain about us making it less fun, this sort of thing shouldn't be thought of as fun anyway.

That being said...something in him stirs when he hears that they're sending out groups. He doesn't so much like the group idea but hey, he can ignore that part for now and he's been getting (slightly) better at working with the whole patrol thing even if he doesn't say two words to his partner the entire time he's on shift. But details.]

[But maybe this was something she should look into. Maybe. She opens a video feed, long brown hair brought back from her face by what appears to be a hairstick, and a birdskull necklace tied around her neck with twine are the only things she's wearing not supplied by Tranquility.] If we're in a team, we're supplied weapons?
