[Out of nowhere, your worst fears confirmed: in bold red -- ]

:)





... Nah! I'm just messing with you! Bahaha. [Like it's not obvious; his name is right up there, but he's a doof. Though to be honest, also he's genuinely curious if Smiley would actually appear at his own mention, should his ego be that inflated. Because nobody even knows if the ship is completely non-functioning in that regard, huh? How much still effects them, from the bowels of that place? Hughes is starting to think crashing really did a number on anything in there that could have communicated with them once upon a time, though.] It's Hughes here. How many of you have even been around long enough to recognize that? Can't help but wonder how long it'll take before we have just a few select people who've even been in the ship when it flew... After all, how many of you are even from the first jump? Or even the first ten? There'd been so many by the time I had woken up here.

On that thought, I figured maybe we could share some information here in this entry. Now that we have a means of doing it, anyway. Me, personally? I'd only been on the Tranquility for a few months. But I know it has quite a history. You're all testimony to that. Wouldn't want the story of your time there to die, right?

... Unless you'd rather do that, since we don't have the booze to drink it away.

Eh. Anyway. We could always move around texts to a larger file, try to reconstruct a new jump informational document. Shouldn't take as much as voice or video-based entries. And of course, as a note, anything less pertinent but still interesting to hear would be good, too. Tell us newer folk things that really stuck with you, if you're feeling brave about it. Or we can just all complain about missing the food we had in the kitchens. I'll admit, you really miss it when it's gone. Hell, it's a good way to pass the time, learning about things before our crashing and burning. The first more than the latter.

... And yes, if anyone is interested in emoticons, please send me your best and brightest ones. If you don't know what they are, you're missing out on new age material. I'm here to help. And possibly make things worse here by flooding the comm with a newly adopted family of emoticon soldiers.

ᕕ(ᐛ)ᕗ Everyone stay safe and don't fall into acidic rivers! Thanks!


[Hughes is the hippest most happenin' dad.]

Not funny.

We can always transcribe the video ones. At least the ones that weren't specific for getting by on the ship.

I believe the expression the young ones use is "too soon".

That's what I meant. Take the video posts and transcribe them into a text document instead. Especially the ones where the visual information isn't relevant.

More like I am in no way ready to be reminded.

A lot of the videos seem to have largely been videos because people find that more relatable rather than needing to actually show something. So getting anything for newcomers to explain why they're in a shipwreck would be useful.

All the usual first questions. And clarify what it is we don't know.

Like where this planet is.

Even that wouldn't get us where anyone wants to. Even with all the spacefaring societies represented on board, we've never travelled anywhere that appears on anyone's charts.

There are enough people here that we could probably work more out.

Of course, given that people can show up here who are originally thousands of years apart, it might be that we're in someone's home galaxy but so far from their time that the stars have shifted beyond recognition.

I'll never understand why my world in particular gets that treatment here.

I've had people from my world arrive from millenia ago. And people I knew who died years ago.

Also a granddaughter from the future.

It was a very strange experience, since Leia is only three.

Jaina's a wonderful girl though. I wish I would have a chance to meet her in a proper timeline.
