Am concerned. Are you all right? - JW

[ random text out of nowhere, go...! ]

This is embarrassing to say when I've been on the ship this long, but I still don't quite understand how those laundry machines work! What really is the difference between hot and cold water? What is "heavy duty"? What does "huge load" mean???

( since she has no clue where rin would be, she'll just go on this route and see if it'll even respond to her. )

hey. u. me. we need to talk asap.

(so jinx survived the weekend of not being spotted by anyone besides venti and stede. but with stede, it was by choice and venti, well... element of surprise. she knows she can't keep this up forever but hopefully enough for her to get her bearings with everything and herself.

wearing a purple hoodie today, jinx walking along the deck and on her way to the theatre to hide in the rafters as she normally do. her hands are in the hoodie's pockets and walking with a slouch so her face would be a bit covered. but upon seeing her, it's easy to figure out this person is jinx. her long hair is a dead give away since she can't necessarily tuck it all in her outfit, so its out of each side of the hoodie. if that's not enough, she is wearing her usual trademark pants and bots. )

( anyway, she is really focusing on moving normally -- something she's still having trouble with from time to time. her mind is so wrapped up on it that she doesn't see rin coming up and practically runs into it. )

Oof!

When Murderbot comes out of its recharge cycle for the day, it'll hear a voice. Thankfully, it's a familiar voice. Sarge is sitting against the wall nearby, and appears to be... reading out loud. Not loudly, mostly to himself, but Murderbot can definitely, easily hear it.

"--the towers on his surcoat golden again instead of dust, he presented himself to Verlain of Skye. Supper in the great hall seemed a haphazard affair, with dogs wandering loose among children eating on the floor, lovers feeding each other in corners, musicians with harp and flute and lute snatching bites between songs, and long gaps of empty, sky-blue cloth between courtiers. 'Everyone left me to go to the wedding,' Verlain explained, patting the cloth beside him for Cyan to sit."

There's a kind of quiet cadence to it that suggests he's been at it for a little while, now.

[Max had shoved everyone out of his way to leave the tender with the rest of the crew in a manner that's honestly pretty normal for him. But even as he was doing it there was the knowledge that something was vastly, terribly wrong with him.

Diagnostics are unhelpful and he's not injured, but the moment he closes the cabin door behind him and tries to calm down from the events of the day, he suddenly crumples to the ground.

All his processors start to suddenly overheat for no reason, his extremeties are shaking even though telemetry data claims they're fine, and his vision blurs. Meanwhile he's sending out pulsewaves of panicked static into a network that doesn't exist, the bursts matching a heartbeat if he had one.

He has no clue what's going on, but he's fairly certain he broke on that island and he's going to die.]

[They get back later in the night. In between helping Ava and Jade back to their rooms and heading up to the bridge, Skulduggery manages to keep his word:]

Back. Will debrief you later. Everything OK here?

Erin attends to her new guard duties like clockwork; they seem relaxing to her, in some ways. It's something to do that concretely helps someone else, yes, but it's also given her a role, however small, in her new community. Today's is not terribly different from any other, at least until SecUnit boots. Erin is at her post, but sitting on the bed is a case that is.

Very.

Very full.

Of DVDs.

"You got somewhere urgent to be, SecUnit?" Erin asks. The affected indifference isn't affected enough; she's excited about something. "Found a favor to shake you down for, but I think you might like it."

From:

crushed_pearls

There are unknown hostiles aboard taking the appearance of passengers. Giles confirmed compromised. "Sharky" Charlegmane suspected compromised. Unknown total number. Do not go unarmored, do not trust anyone unless you can confirm they're themselves. Hostiles display personality discrepancies that may out them. Status of originals unconfirmed. Capabilities of hostiles unconfirmed. Stay safe, SecUnit.

From:

crushed_pearls

Need to check in about scheduling. Johnny's family attacked. No trained fighters. Intend to bodyguard him. He was my first friend here but I do have my standing appointment with you in mornings. Is your cabin still safe? Is Jinx confirmed non-hostile? Open to alterations in arrangement but I will make it work if alterations are not acceptable.

From:

crushed_pearls

The knock comes on SecUnit's door as usual. Erin still hasn't slept for...obvious reasons, but she has a standing appointment with her friend. Even if what it said about her putting herself on it is bouncing around her exhausted mind still.

"Buddy?" Erin calls through the door. "I lost track of you once the fight started but everyone's waking up. I'm here."

From:

makesomedeals

I heard you did not make it through the party. From what I understand of how things transpired, that's for the best.

[ There's a fairly long pause between those texts and the next. ]

All systems functional?

[Yeah sure he's asking if SecUnit is okay shut up. ]

From:

crushed_pearls

Slightly later than normal but I am here. Please do not be alarmed. I am injured but functional and will see a doctor later. My life is not threatened but if you ask questions about what happened you will get answers you do not want to hear for the same reasons you skip scenes in serials.

Quick question, when you have a moment:
Do you happen to fly your drones consistently near the bridge?

[ Left at the foot of SecUnit’s door in the hotel is a little folded paper crane; the paper has been drawn on with careful ballpoint pen, with floral illustrations and swirling patterns, most dense on the wings and trailing up through the tail and the neck.

Taped to it is a little note that says “FOR SECUNIT - FROM PHIL”. ]

From:

decrypter

[at some point in the day, when SecUnit is away, a small bundle gets tucked into its things. a set of colored ink pens, and a notebook.

there is no note. there doesn't need to be. if she's lucky, it won't find it too quickly.]

From:

decrypter

It's in one of those more quiet moments where they're simply existing in each other's presence that Helena decides to ask a question that's been on her mind for a bit.

"SecUnit? Did you read the black binder?"

It's gone, she knows. Word gets around, and she hadn't been able to read it regardless, but there had been every intent after the resort. But then everyone so steeped in misery had happened, and by the time she got around to it...the regrets are her own fault. Thus, relying on a trusted friend's memory, perhaps.

From:

not_the_last

A text message appears on SecUnit's phone.

I don't wish to disturb you, but are you free to talk?

From:

goodweather

Do you know where you might be in about 10 days

Little ellipses for many moments too long.

I have a favor to ask

From:

decrypter

I have news.
Apparently Miss Ava was in Sand Dollars the other day.
Neither of us considered that this could happen.
I feel you should be aware of this.

From:

decrypter

Let me know when you have a bit of time, please. There's something I want to show you.

It's a quiet afternoon, after Security's well again, and Helena still hasn't moved out because Crabb's problem remains ongoing. The complete absence of Friday is part of this, as is the rifts in reality, but also Helena isn't entirely complaining about the new status quo, figuring it will get resolved when it gets resolved. It means that taking up a position on the couch isn't unusual, and when she speaks, it's soft, trying not to be jarring and break the mood of the day.

"Can I ask you about something? And will you be completely honest with me if I do?"

She knows Security doesn't have a reason to lie. But it's important to ask, and she has to ask it before she can ask someone else.
