r & r "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. ( ooc; For questions, go here.

[His sensei is so majestic.

However, with Saitama's presence, Genos settles down and regains focus, scanning the area around them.]

I do not know, Sensei. The proximity alarms did not trigger before we arrived here, and my scans are currently unable to detect anything out of place, aside from the unknown location.

[averagehero]

Man, I was napping. This is a weird dream. [just laying on his back, looking up at the complex architecture of the ship around them. Everything was so metal and glowy. Actually, everything kind of looked like Genos.]

You blend in here, Genos.

[armsmode]

I agree that it's a strange dream, if it is one. However, my systems are responding as if I'm awake, and I usually do not dream of myself as a cyborg.

[averagehero]

This is pretty complicated, for a dream. [Saitama will sigh, finally sitting himself up, looking at the Ingress behind them. Whoa, that is... bright. That's it, really, a big bright light.]

Did we come out of that thing?

[armsmode]

...I believe we may have. Saitama-sensei, are you unharmed? I will find who is responsible for this and deal with them.

[averagehero]

[at Genos' question, he'll look himself over, patting at his suit with flat palms. He felt and looked fine, so he must be fine. He'll crane his neck back to look at Genos, who seemed undisturbed, as well]
Think we're good. Don't run off and cause trouble, got it? [bad idea, when they don't know where they are]

[armsmode]

The one who trapped us better answer for this!

[averagehero]

Chill out, man. [Saitama will pull himself up finally, brushing off his super suit even though it didn't really get dirty.]

Nothing I can't get out of, you know that. [or so he thinks, even being the most powerful of all heroes ever couldn't help being Lost In Spaaaace.]

[armsmode]

It is still a waste of your precious time, Sensei.

[averagehero]

I was taking a nap... [that's pretty wasteful, to be honest]

Don't get all up in arms. [pointing to his suitcase as he makes the pun, though Genos tended to not get them.]

[armsmode]

I wasn't going to activate ARMSMODE, Sensei, unless the situation became more dangerous.

[averagehero]

Well, hold back, since I'm here. Don't get yourself torn up. [BECAUSE YOU DO THAT ALL THE TIME.]

[armsmode]

Ah, right! Saitama-sensei, you can handle any danger that could possibly occur.

[averagehero]

But I don't know how to put you back together. [so stay out of trouble]

[armsmode]

Ah... correct as usual, Saitama-sensei. I can do rudimentary repairs, but... I could not repair myself if I were to get severely damaged.

[averagehero]

Just stay out of trouble, we'll figure out what's going on.

[they're a noise over the PA, addressing them; WELCOME. WE ARE CERTAIN YOU HAVE MANY QUESTIONS AND CONCERNS. REPORT FOR ORIENTATION.

Huh.]

[armsmode]

...I suppose we will go to orientation.

[averagehero]

[The orientation tells them a lot about the situation without giving much real information. Saitama dozes off a little bit through, the cyborg nudging him awake as they get seperated out for individual interviews and assignments. Saitama got a room number, a job, and a uniform. He'll shuffle through the other new crew members to find his cyborg companion]

Hey, Genos! What'd you get?

[armsmode]

For my duties? I am a Cybernetics Technician. I will be assisting other cyborgs and anyone with prosthetics.

[averagehero]

Oh, that's cool, you'll be good at that. Do you get a cute medic hat? [his uniform is boring and bland, Genos' job sounded way more interesting]

[armsmode]

I don't wear hats.

[averagehero]

That's not what I asked.

[armsmode]

I won't wear something I dislike. [ARMS STUBBORNLY FOLDED.]

[averagehero]

I didn't ask if you'd wear it, I asked if you got one! [buzzkill, gosh!]

[armsmode]

I have not unpackaged my uniform, nor do I intend to wear it unless necessary.
