Nobody destroy the pirate ship, if you find it. I want to take a look, and if you all shoot them, then we can keep it.

[ Sorry pirates. ]

Flight crew, if you're not down here, get down here unless you can't fight.

[ By "here" she means "the shuttle bay", but really, where else would she be? ]

((ooc: Open for action in the shuttle bay, if people so desire!))

Comments

(he's there.)

[carbonite]

Yeah, yeah, I'm here.

[suddenlycaptain]

I know you're here.

[ Stress, Carolyn has it. ]

[carbonite]

Well, great for you!

the ship cannot handle this level of sass

[suddenlycaptain]

We just spoke!

voice

[brawled]

Lady, you better tell your captain-- whichever the hell one you answer to-- that threatening to kill us all is not making his "we wanna talk" pitch look like anything but bullshit.

[ fields hates this stupid ship ]

[forcing]

This one is another captain.

[brawled]

So that's... I lost count. Four? No offense but I think I'm gonna stick with the command structure we got already, if you're not looking for a change. Never really wanted to be a captain of anything.

[forcing]

If I was looking for a change, I wouldn't take inspiration from this mess. They've passed the title around so much they've rendered it meaningless.

voice

[suddenlycaptain]

Better listen to your captain. And I haven't threatened to kill anyone.

[ She just knows that most of the people on this ship will, and if they don't... there's still the ship itself. ]

I don't answer to any of them. I'll work with them, when they're not being fucking idiots.

voice

[brawled]

"If you all shoot them, I get to keep their ship".

Sound familiar?

[cargojet]

I don't think creating a situation where we're the pirates is a solution.

That said, if things go awry I want that ship as intact as possible, not ripped apart by the curious. I want it flying.

voice;

[suddenlycaptain]

They already think we're pirates.

They will. It's the Tranquility. [ This place and its people are a fucking timebomb. ]

voice;

[cargojet]

God knows I don't have much optimism when it comes to wishing common sense on the people here, but I need that Comm. Gunnery are sick to their stomach cause they couldn't scan the damn thing and if they booby trap it it might blow a hole in the ship, make a bloody mess when we jump again.

They're right. We don't have control.

voice;

[astrogate]

[ she probably isn't that far from you, fry. she is just busy working on a yet another shuttle in case they need it (SHE HOPES THEY WONT) ]

Has anyone mentioned looking for it?

voice;

[suddenlycaptain]

Not on the comms.

[ Since, well, the pirates can see... everything. ]

somewhere in shouting distance

[astrogate]

[ calling out from a few shuttles over ]

Someone from the crew should go if they do - least someone with knowledge of controls.

[leaps]

I've got a situation right now. I'm handling it.

[suddenlycaptain]

A "situation"?

[leaps]

It's fine. Everything's fine.

[ sulu.......... ]

I can't brief you over the comms, but I'll tell you everything when I get back to the shuttle bay.

[firstofficer]

Has a search party yet been established?

voice|

[suddenlycaptain]

Whether there is or isn't one, who knows who might stumble upon it.

voice|

[firstofficer]

The vessel may have security measures in place.

[killarevolution]

Makes me wonder which option you're hoping for.

[suddenlycaptain]

Out of which options?

[killarevolution]

Kill them all and get the ship or just take a look at it.
