"Each of us needs to withdraw from the cares which will not withdraw from us."

The Ingress has pulled you in. Your body experiences several sensations at once: being pushed forward as if a hand is resting on your back, momentary and startling blindness, a gentle ringing in your head. You have difficulty discerning whether it is hot or cold, but where you have been prodded is noticeably warmer than the rest of you. Some may suffer from dizziness while others are perfectly fine. Once equilibrium has been reestablished, you will notice you are standing on a long platform and that the room is filled with a soft cerulean light. It's slightly humid and dark despite the glow around you, and nothing is familiar. Shortly after, you are led out and toward the medbay.

Inside this room, you are given a physical scan and offered a contract to sign that states you are now part of the crew of the Moira with a specific job. This process consists of a complete work-up of medical history and current health, and afterwards, you are given your MID, a device that is integrated into your hand with only the slightest pinch. From there, you are guided out of the medbay and to your living quarters.

Having left Amissis-Re behind, tensions among crew members have continued to escalate into ship-wide consequences, and recognizing the need for some separation among those aboard the Moira, the Captains make the unanimous decision to deviate from their present course to a "nearby" planet that is notable for such popular distractions. While it is not a permanent solution, measures are being taken to monitor the crew's morale much more closely. New arrivals will be treated as they always are; yet, now, more than ever, it is important to stress the balance of working together toward their goal of reaching their destination so that everyone will return home.


WELCOME TO COLLECTIVES ASH3 - BF3 - CLF5




The Collective is a paradise resort located far from any other neighboring planets to offer the most leisurely experience possible to its patrons. Artificially created for multiple uses, it is divided into separate locales interconnected with a tubing transport system that is so fast and efficient that it’s like being teleported to the next area. Extensive mapping can be found at various intersecting points to offer some direction, and there are even recognizable adverts from a very familiar stop months before spread out across the Collective. Whether looking to explore or to simply shed the weight of anxiety, there are plenty of opportunities to be found within ASH3, BF3, and CLF5.

All crew members are given a card from the Captains that has an unlimited amount of credits on it. Organized through trade, these allow Moirans access to any of the luxuries that the Collective has to offer aside from the purchase of items considered weapons due to the escalation of recent events. Food, clothes, trinkets, or even a full spa experience—the limits, otherwise, are endless. The Captains emphasize that this is time to relax and take a break from the grind that is living and working on a spaceship as unique as the Moira.

B.E.A.C.H! THE BEST ESCAPE ANYONE CAN HAVE!
For those seeking a fun time, the Collective offers a variety of activities on ASH3. There are multiple beaches to enjoy as well as beachside kiosks offering drinks, beach toys and surf equipment for those a little more sports-minded. The tide washes in beautiful shells to collect, and there are always life-guards on duty to make sure everyone stays safe while enjoying their time on the beach. ASH3 offers a safe and friendly environment with plenty of fun in the sun for everyone. There is also a boardwalk full of restaurants, bars and plenty of games and entertainment for when you want to step off the sand but don’t want to give up being out in the sun.For those who can’t or won’t bear the sun, ASH3 also offers a thriving night life on both beach and boardwalk. There are midnight boat tours to view the bioluminescent schools of fish native to the island and bonfire dance parties that go long into the mornings. On the boardwalk, all shops are open until midnight as well as many clubs and social spots where crew can mingle with other tourists in the area.

So you don’t like the sand. It’s too hot, and it gets everywhere. Then hop onto one of the many transportation systems, slip into some warmer clothes, and take to the slopes. More experienced crew can immediately dive in, but those who need help can take lessons on how to ski or snowboard. There’s hot cocoa, sleds, snowball fights, and the occasional person making a snow angel (or snow person). ASH3 also has areas for rock climbing, sky diving, base jumping, bodyboarding, canoeing, hang gliding, jetskis, mountain biking, hiking, and much more.

WHEN I SHOP, THE WORLD GETS BETTER
Not everyone enjoys shopping, but this Collective entices even the most frugal and reluctant into spending their credits here. In fact, the Captains are encouraging this. They give the explicit “order” to buy whatever you want for yourself and your fellow crew members, but more than that, to consider making purchases to better the ship. Is there any area of the Moira that needs spruced up? Maybe some fresh paint in the mess hall,or new furniture in the decks? Maybe some fancy curtains for all those windows on the observation deck, or a few throw pillows? New pots and pans for the kitchen might be something to add to this list as well as equipment for the rec area, or whatever else you think BF3 will have to help increase comfort aboard the Moira.

To enhance your shopping experience, the technology here allows you to try on clothes without lifting a hand. The food here is an unlimited spread of gourmet dining to comfort food and every dessert you can think of. When you’re finished with your purchases, have all your packages and larger items delivered back to the ship for you.

TREAT YO SELF
The accommodations on the Collective of CLF5 are as unique as they come. Lodging is available for those who want to sleep in an environment that’s underwater or perhaps those who desire something as simple as a soft bed. No matter what kind of room you want to purchase for the night, it’ll be available here, and the only true limit is the imagination. When you aren’t relaxing in a hotel room, you’ll find that there are numerous spas and hair salons that offer varied services. Gold face masks rejuvenate your skin, the Ever Young™ Spa can make you look ten years younger with one treatment, and the mud baths are known across the universes for making you feel youthful and refreshed. If you’re looking for a new hairstyle or to relax, this Collective is the place for you to spend those hard-earned credits.

Shouldn't ya finish what ya got before gettin' more?

[It's not like the girl hasn't been stuffing her face either, evident in the smudges of icing around her cheeks. But she's eyeing the amount of food with a sickened expression, same as she has every time she's seen someone walk through with a plate piled high. She expects this girl to be the same as everyone else here, trying everything and leaving enough to the trash to feed a crew for a week.]

I'm sure I understand Sensei very well.

[Are you kidding, Starscream's used to hearing the voice of BEEason (bee + reason get it im sorry) in the back of his head. Thus, Starscream doesn't have a spark attack, but he does calm down and mumble a halfassed apology to the poor organic he was yelling at before shooing them away. He doesn't want people to think he's out of his mind so soon after his arrival, so once the little critter is gone, Starscream finally acknowledges Bumblebee. He turns around and crosses his arms all huffy like, what's up little hallucination bee.]

Can't you go be someone else's shoulder angel for a while?

People don't like to think about it, from what I've found. [Honestly, he was in their place, once. But things change once you experience them for yourself.

Though he does sigh, humming to himself for just a moment.]


It is beautiful, provided it's not in the middle of a civil war. I used to live in Versailles, but moved to Paris for my own reasons.

[He stops, and figures he should clarify himself. It'll answer her last question, at least.]

Currently it's 1792 in Paris, and from what I'm told, the world eventually refers to this time as the French Revolution.

[riptide doesn't care about hiding. he doesn't even like using his holo. this does, admittedly, give him Problems, but whatever. everyone'll have to get used to a giant robot coming up behind them eventually. he's not exactly quiet.]

Wow. That's cool. I feel a little outdated, now.

[Generally, in Thedas, no one would bat an eye at a man offering another man his arm, in certain places less than others. It was an experience that Dorian so rarely got to enjoy personally because, while there is an acceptance of physical pleasure between two men and tow women in the Imperium, it was little more than that. He was a noble and there were expectations. You indulged, but you kept it hidden and went on with your duties, that wasn't to say that Dorian was a golden child all the time, but he only did so when he felt comfortable.

And he felt comfortable. The reciprocity was pleasing, exciting, refreshing, and slightly confounding. More important than any of that, however? This is not a joke, and he treats his companion's arm with the utmost respect.]


Oh, I might have to see this in action. Nothing wrong with a firm grip in my personal opinion. [If only that were a euphemism. It is interesting, however, how certain things become cultural norms by complete accident, and Dorian has quite the love of history, so bonus points for historical significance.] And what country were you born in, if you don't mind my asking? I'm quivering with curiosity.

A shame they let some of the old practices go. [Who doesn't enjoy having their hand kissed?] Well...different humans and different species that are human-esque, there are many in Thedas. There are the Avaar and the Chasind Wilders...other human tribes that have their own way about things...but there are the elves, the dwarves, and the qunari as well. Each greet their own differently.

[She's struggling to read her own menu; her little education didn't tell her anything about how eggs could be cooked or what a parm was. She slowly peeks over the menu when Odd speaks, frowning in that serious way only kids ever seemed to get away with.]

Those your names or somethin'?

I know you would never stab someone if you thought they couldn't survive it!

[If it were possible for Clara to have stars in her eyes, she would right about now. She loves French history, if only because it was something her mother loved. So she eagerly nods, confirming what he's just said.]

I can't imagine going from 1792 and being in the middle of a civil war to a whole other time and place is an easy adjustment. And then to go from that to here...

[There's a lot of technology on board the ship that she's noticed. It must be overwhelming if he's not used to it. So she links her arm through his, placing her hand atop his elbow to give it a light pat.]

Questions. You must have some, about the things you've seen here. Go on, ask them.

I would not stab anybody for any reason! [WHY DOES HE HAVE TO EXPLAIN THIS??]

Saitama-sensei is a very curious man.
averagehero: (Damnit!)

You don't stab people because you're curious, dumbass!
armsmode: (Sensei?)

[personal profile] armsmode 2016-06-03 09:50 pm (UTC)(link)
One might stab Zombieman because they are curious, Saitama-sensei.
averagehero: (I have to do what?)

[personal profile] averagehero 2016-06-03 09:52 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, they shouldn't. [though, judging from Zombieman's reaction to the whole affair, it happens pretty damn often]
armsmode: (ramble ramble ramble)

Beach

[The Girl was still too wary to go anywhere close to the water, but the fire had drawn her out to the sand. She didn't get too close to the bonfire either, too many people near by for her to be comfortable. Instead she sat a ways off, curled up on a left-behind chair. Maybe how far away she is lets the sudden appearance of other light catch her attention.

She walks over to the burning blanket, making no move to put it out. More interesting than the fire is the little creature shuffling near it, and she crouches to watch him instead. She whispers out to him, trying not to catch the attention of the other beach goers.]


Are ya some little alien? Don't let 'em catch ya burnin' stuff. Some people 'round are real weird about rules.

Paint me impressed anyway. [Ratchet's voice is as amiable as it ever gets--he may be a cranky old gearshaft but he knows good engineering when he sees it. He shifts it into a more secure grip and looks down at Tony curiously.]

Busted power supply, you said? What happened to it?
averagehero: (Uuuh...)

[personal profile] averagehero 2016-06-03 10:01 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh my god, Genos, I would not stab someone! [URG WHY DOES HE HAVE TO EXPLAIN THIS?]

Why are we talking about this!?
armsmode: (Default)

[personal profile] armsmode 2016-06-03 10:03 pm (UTC)(link)
Why do you believe I will take every chance to get engaged in a fight and damage myself beyond repair given these circumstances?

[OKAY MAYBE HE WAS BEING A LITTLE PETTY. Genos folds his arms, pouting at Saitama and looking a bit goofy in his slippers and apron.]
knaval: (in the ensuing)

Riptide kicks the door open without even hesitating.

"Hey, can I have some?"

If anything had happened, I wouldn't have blamed you.

[ He needed to know that. Elena wouldn't have held it against him, not in the slightest. She reaches out then, hand over his, stopping his little grass picking habit he's just recently picked up. ]

But it sounds frightening, having no control. Being a potentially dangerous threat to everyone around you and you have no way of stopping yourself.

[ Elena couldn't even begin to imagine it. Which is why her hand strays over his. She'd never get the look of utter panic and fear in his expression out of her mind. The thought that she'd come so close to losing him, where anything could've happened, her hand tightens.

Well, who knows what's going to happen now. She's here and he's kind of still in Yemen, only not really. The whole future and past thing was confusing, troubling.
]

Does that have anything to do with Cutter falling and breaking his leg?
