[ On pops the device – it’s text this time – as she isn’t truly in the mood to be talking to people – let alone facing them. (the girls sad, okay?) ]

I know the next jump is coming up fast, and we all need to be getting ready for that of course. But given the events that have been taking place, perhaps we can figure out a way to do a headcount before and after the jump?

Also, has anyone seen my friends? I arrived with them, and now they appear to be missing. 

They were:

[Also doesn't stop him from wondering why the fuck she would think they were his friends. Netherlands jumps to conclusions, Volume 586.]

If that's why you're doing it, why try to sell it

[ netherlands, when will you learn, she just assumes people should care like she does ]

Because, that way we can truly see how they will react. Giving them something that SHOULD be hard to say no to, well, that obviously throws red flags up. And to be honest, I like to have things planned out at times, prepare for as much as you can, you know?

[handelaar]

Thought you meant "selling it" as a loyalty test. Didn't make sense
That does though

Are you going to do all this?

[constructum]

Oh I apologize, I have worded it better. To be honest though, I would rather like some help - at least in some form or another. I know there are a good handful of people; I'm not even remotely acquainted with. So if we can come up with a way to make this easy, I'd really love to get it going.

Asking the network is the easy way, but probably not the best way. People might miss it

[You know, people like him, who ignore their devices for hours at a stretch and never bother to check back. He's been doing a lot less of that lately, but still. It's a concern.]

Could do it after the next jump, or have a sign-up sheet. Like the paper kind. People sign their own name

[constructum]

I like the sing-up sheet, but what about an all ship meeting? Maybe get as many people together as we can after the jump, that way we all can discus this and obviously everything else that is going on?

[handelaar]

Right. That will go over well. Peaceful and productive

text

[constructum]

Is that sarcasm, or do you honestly think it will be fine?

text

[handelaar]

Sarcasm

[constructum]

Funny.

I honestly think it's worth a shot. And clearly people should be willing to go along with it. So we might as well try to figure out how to approach it, and soon.

If you think putting a bunch of desperate morons in a room together is going to work, you're crazy

But we're not doing anything else out here. Whatever

[If nothing else it's free entertainment.]

[constructum]

You really have little faith.

I'd like to think people here would be willing to at least try, don't you?

fff permatext I am too lazy for this

[handelaar]

Yeah

[The so? speaks for itself, he thinks.]

Not really. Dick-wave maybe. Fight over power

[constructum]

I'm not even going to ask about dick-wave.

I'm just assuming people want to get home as much as I do. Unless I'm gladly mistaken, then I have no idea how to approach half of these people.

[handelaar]

You shouldn't have to. Self-explanatory

They might. Or they might just want to fuck with everyone

[Hi, pessimist speaking.]

[constructum]

Seems a bit pointless to mess with a whole ship full of people, you know?
You'd think they would just be willing to work with people is all.

[handelaar]

Have you never had to work with a bunch of people with conflicting goals, or what
