013 ☺ Voice ☺ I give you thanks for receiving it's my privilege

[moreincommon]

Um, look.

Not really being much of a fighter or a genius on the fly, I'm not sure how much I can help in this upcoming port. What I can do is ask the Admiral for supplies of basic survival gear to pass out to anyone interested. I'm talking backpacks, waterbottles, compasses, tents, freeze-dried food, rain ponchos, flashlights, emergency blankets, that kind of thing. I'm going to try to start putting together packages for any teams that might go out, and if you want one, please let me know.

[Private to Satsuki]
How have you been feeling lately? I wanted to talk to you about your friends again.

[Private to Junko]
It has been a long time since I heard from you. What's going on in your life? Are you still despairing?

[Private to Anya]
I'm sorry I didn't get back to you sooner. You wanted to talk?

[Private to Megamind]
...Is there any chance you're free for some video games tonight?

[megamind]

I am in fact free. Come on down. I'll rehydrate something tasty.

[private]

[moreincommon]

Wonderful! Your place or mine? Granted, yours has far superior sound and video quality.

[private]

[megamind]

I have the best A/V on the barge! Going to show for Star Wars Wednesday? Few folks on the barge haven't seen it, I volunteered to set up my equipment in the dining hall so folks could watch it in style.

I am also still in possession of a cast on my foot, so if you'd like to come down to me, I'd appreciate it.

[private]

[moreincommon]

I don't know! If I'm open I will, but now that I know you're helping out I'm even more tempted.

That's not a problem. What do you feel like playing tonight?

[private]

[megamind]

Still got our saves for Splinter Cell: Conviction? We can pick up where we left off with secret-agenting!

[omaera]

Despair? I'm in more fucking despair than I've been in weeks!

[moreincommon]

I take it you're doing well then?

[omaera]

BZZZT! This place sucks!

[Annnd switch.] oh... is it more believable if i act like this...?

[moreincommon]

If you act like what? Junko, you don't need to act to impress me.

[omaera]

it just seems like no one believes me... if i don't say it this way... ah... i'm in so much despair...

Private

[technophilic]

I have been feeling bored. [ If her voice were a little less monotone, that might have been scathing. ]

Private

[moreincommon]

I wanted to talk to you about that. In fact, I want to make you a deal.

Private

[technophilic]

[ Something to alleviate the boredom? Color her interested. ]

What sort of deal?

Private

[moreincommon]

There's nothing I'd like more than to return your abilities and let you loose in an advanced computer lab, because I know it would make you happy. That's not an option on board, but we can do the next best thing.

If you work on spending a set amount of time each day with me, or anyone else on board, I'd like to give you access to a computer monitoring an off-board network.

You wouldn't be able to change anything, but you'd have someone to talk to.

Private

[technophilic]

[ That's. Well, that's not exactly what she wants but it's a hell of a lot more than she has right now. ]

Typically a deal involves something given by both parties.

[landfall]

I'll take one. I can probably make a few suggestions on what to have in it, too.

I'm new in the neighborhood. What exactly do we know about this upcoming port?

[moreincommon]

That would be appreciated. Unfortunately it's hard to figure out what can go in these kits without being used as a weapon, and that's on individual wardens' shoulders.

To be fair we're all flying a little blind here. The Admiral gave us only a little information – it's somewhere the Barge has been before, although a long time ago, it's very dangerous, and there will be safety in numbers. The CES and CTS are programmed to give us some idea what it's like.

[landfall]

People are creative. They can make almost anything into a weapon. It's not a reason to disinclude emergency flares or medical supplies.

[moreincommon]

True. "Safety first" goes right along with "Always be prepared."

Private like whoa

[mistconduct]

I need to talk to you.

Private like wha?

[moreincommon]

Of course. What's wrong?

Private like wha?

[mistconduct]

You're a therapist, right?

I need some fucking therapy.

Private

[moreincommon]

What's going on? Do you want to talk in person?

[fridgetothefire]

Yeah, I.

Is the offer of, um, counseling still open?

private

[moreincommon]

It's always open! What can I help you with?
