"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.

[Oh these two are going to be fun together, aren't they? Pretty sure she's just as confused as Daisy is.]
Honestly, still pretty convinced this is all some weird dream.
no subject
[Which puts a smile on her face, and there's a soft laugh of excitement as she moves on ahead. There's a glance over her shoulder, and she motions for Daisy to follow.]
no subject
What's your name?
[Probably a good thing to know, right?]
no subject
[She slows down in her walking so she can glance over, smiling.]
Clara Oswald, at your service.
[There's a mock salute given, more playful than in any way serious, and it's followed up by a chuckle as she plods on ahead.]
What about you, then?
no subject
Daisy.
[And because it's been bothering her...]
Why did you ask me if I stepped into a blue police box?
no subject
[She pauses in the middle of running her hand along the wall, as if she's attempting to find a secret door to someplace in particular, so she can glance over in Daisy's direction.]
I'm looking for someone. A friend, though I might be reconsidering the title.
[She frowns a little as she quickly thinks that over, and gives a light shrug of her shoulders.]
His name's the Doctor, and he travels 'round in a blue police box. I was wondering if he had taken on another assistant.
no subject
What do you mean travels around in?
no subject
[She's more than amused by the fact Daisy's just felt up the wall, and there's a quirk to the corner of her mouth that shows that amusement.]
It's a bit like this ship, I wager. Except smaller on the outside, obviously. [Obviously. Because everyone will be able to get that concept.]
no subject
[Daisy is beginning to wonder if this chick is on drugs. She's seen some weird shit, but that was hard to imagine.]
So you think you came here in that box?
no subject
[She's moving on ahead again, eyes looking all around for any sign of anything out of the ordinary.]
I think his grumpy old cow of a snogbox expelled me and I ended up here. She doesn't like me, and I haven't managed to figure out why just yet.
no subject
Daisy finally stops when she calls the box a 'snogbox'.]
...You realize how insane you sound, right? You're not making any sense.
no subject
She tries to give an apologetic look that doesn't come across as crazy. She doesn't mean to come across as casual or manic about any of this. She's just caught up in being in a new space situation. The only problem is, she doesn't feel she can explain that without sounding more off.]
I know I must sound properly bonkers, but I promise, I'm just used to situations where I end up in strange places. Waking up on a spaceship isn't anything new to me. I've started to forget it isn't normal for everyone else.
no subject
[So why did she believe her? Probably because this whole thing is fucked up. Or bonkers, as she called it.]
And your friend? He's the one who pilots it?
no subject
[Which makes her frown, because he's prone to getting into trouble if she's not there to babysit him.]
no subject
[Honestly? She was hoping he showed up so she could see if this lady was being honest or not.]
What does he look like?
no subject
[Wait, that's not the best way to describe him. So it's probably best to try that again.]
He's tall, lanky, fond of tweed and bowties. Might also be wearing a fez, God forbid. He's got a head full of floppy hair and the biggest chin you've ever seen.
no subject
That was a joke, right? About him not being fully human? Sorry, it's just, that's not uncommon where I'm from. Aliens and things.
