[Someone is standing outside of one of the holodecks, just kinda looking for a while because, okay, some secret nerdy side of her is all about just jumping in there and trying it out, but the part of her brain that is still stuck on the fact that this is too fictional for real life is keeping her outside.]

Hey, so. Who wants to show me how these virtual reality rooms work? Or whatever they're called. I'd just take a swim, but I haven't been given a bathing suit, so. Looks like I'm at the mercy of whatever this room is capable of to relieve my boredom.

[She grins; clearly in a good mood but no she is not sharing why.]

Really though! Somebody get over here and walk me through this, I don't wanna cause some kinda meltdown by misusing the thing.


[Encrypted Message to: BELA TALBOT and JACK SPARROW.]
Well! If nothing else, this whole mutiny thing really... shined a light on just how impossible it is to get a reaction or even get some attention from the captain. Which means I'm clean out of ideas how we can try and talk them into sending us home.

[No, she isn't checking on you both. That's crazytalk. That is absolutely crazy talk.]

[Encrypted Message to: JOHN EGBERT.]
[However yes, she is checking in on you, dude.]

Hey kid, it's been a while. How've you been?

Encrypted Message Jack Does Not Know How To Send

[bottlearum]

[Hello, Wichita! What a lovely view of the brig you've got here. Oh, but there's also a smirking Jack Sparrow.]

Aye, what-his-name didn't get the attention o'the cap'n. But why should the cap'n pay any attention if he ain't gotta step in?

it's okay, wichita learned first thing how do encrypt messages!

[cons]

[.........................squint.]

Jack, where are you?

Jack is doing good to use his phone, okay. What is technology.

[bottlearum]

Ah, this would be the brig, luv.

[Hey, he'll even give you the tour, taking his feed and turning it around. Yep, those are bars. That are preventing him from escaping. Unfortunately.]

[cons]

How did--

What did you do?

[bottlearum]

[Jack will bring the feed back to himself. He's laying down on the floor of the brig, just chillin'. If you're gonna be in the brig, you've gotta do it with style.]

I might or might not have helped out with the mutiny that happened not too long ago. Perhaps you've heard about it, aye?

[the_vishual]

It's fairly straight foreward, miss. I could come help if you desire.

[cons]

Yeah? Have you used them before?

[the_vishual]

No, but the technology is not unfamiliar.

[dubiously encrypted this guy chucked a cake at his wall anything he touches is dubious]

[zoosmell]

i am so good, it is almost like i am golden.
i mean, yeah, some people i know went away...
but they'll be back!
and they will be exactly the same.
so it's ok?
even if rose doesn't know all the things she used to know, she is still rose by any which way name shape or form.
i think walt whitman said that.

[ dubiously encrypted~! ]

[cons]

I guess that's okay, yeah. Tricky either way - cause it's nice to have friends here, but it's also kinda nice thinking they're home where they belong? But I'm glad you're nearly golden, either way.

Nope, Walt Whitman wrote... well, I have no idea what he wrote. You're thinking of Shakespeare. But close enough.

[zoosmell]

oh, yeah, i know a lot of shakespeare!
like...
if you judge people, you have no time to love them!
that is some deep shit right there.
anyway, everything is fine!
everything is absolutely fine.
it's really fine.

[cons]

That's one of my favorite quotes by him.
Sure about that..?
Triple fines usually mean maybe-not-fine. Unless you're just really hyper...

[zoosmell]

no, i'm really fine.
super fine.
excellent fine.
anyway, how have you been doing?
i am glad you are not dead, because kissing is a lot of work.
and kinda cold with a dead person, i guess.

[onsilksheets]

Yes, the captain did seem rather absent during the whole event. I haven't got any ideas right now myself though.

I stayed out of the way when it happened.

encrypted

[cons]

So did I, not worth the freaking mess.

Just thought I'd check in though, make sure I didn't miss anything. The tension on this ship lately is driving me nuts, and I don't even know the half of what happened.

encrypted

[onsilksheets]

I was more concerned with keeping myself safe than anything else.

Yeah, that's fine. Sorry I haven't got any new information but with things being locked from certain people, I can't exactly learn anything.

The tension is definitely unsettling.

[player_not_slayer]

Wait wait wait, hold the fucking tits. You mean to tell me there's been holodecks on this stupid ship this whole time and I've never seen them?

[He has been so bored so bored no one has any idea how fucking slow these last two months have gone by. No video games, not even getting to log into Kable for some cathartic shooting practice or anything. And there's been a source of entertainment aside from trolling the network this whole time just sitting there and he didn't know about it?

The universe is so unfair.]

[cons]

We sure do. ['hold the fucking tits'. where do kids come up with this crap.] I think there's one on every passenger floor. Not that I've been on every floor. Do you know how they work?

[player_not_slayer]

[He's from a pretty fucked up future who knows where he gets it from.]

They're probably pretty easy if they're anything like my computer at home.

Give me a moment and I'll be right fucking there, man.

[He is so not going to miss the chance to fuck around on a holodeck, no way.]

[cons]

Sure thing.

[She'll just... wait right here.]

[player_not_slayer]

[Holy shit Simon's voluntarily leaving his quarters for once what is this bullshit. Luckily he'll hit up the right floor to find her at, after taking a few wrong terns to find the holodecks in the first place. Why this place didn't have a fucking map is beyond him.]

Hey. Someone call for tech support?

[goldshirt]

There's nothing wrong with skinny dipping.

[very professional, Kirk.]

voice;

[cons]

In a public pool? I can think of a few things wrong with that. [She sounds amused though.] Then again, it's a space pool, so it's likely just as sterile as the rest of this place, right?

voice;

[goldshirt]

A lake is also a kind of public pool.

[shut up kirk no it isn't.]

voice;

[cons]

I don't swim in lakes at all, let alone without my clothes on.

[this is a lie, of course; in z-land she had no choice once there was no more running water. but we don't talk about that.]

Though I think I might be missing your point. You do have a point, yes?
