"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.

What kinda mutants? They green and big? Or sometimes grey and big. Point is, big.
t65: (IM PRETTY SURE NO)

[personal profile] t65 2016-06-02 04:48 pm (UTC)(link)
Uhh, normal ones? [Wait, how can a mutant be normal?] Normal human skin tones. They had too many eyes or limbs, though, that kind of thing. And they were covered in sores.
chipouttaluck: (that's not gone well)

[personal profile] chipouttaluck 2016-06-02 06:04 pm (UTC)(link)
Never seen that kind before. Sounds like it must've sucked, though. Ick.
t65: (luke skywalker has surprisingly muscular)

[personal profile] t65 2016-06-02 06:22 pm (UTC)(link)
It wasn't my favorite, n- [There's the trash fire. Well, not really a trash fire. But they've wandered into a district by the shore side, and there's a gigantic dumpster off the pier with a large, heavy-looking metal lid. Throwing and burning them in there shouldn't cause any damage.]

[Luke points.]
There, that should be good. Do you have anything to start a fire?
chipouttaluck: (ooooo)

[personal profile] chipouttaluck 2016-06-02 06:28 pm (UTC)(link)
[Aha! We're on a roll now.]

Lemme see. [Doot doo doo, rummaging through her backpack. Oh, shit, she forgot all about that.] Turns out I got a lighter. [It's got some dame on the side or something. Definitely not her style.]
t65: (my twin is so hot??? i mean)

[personal profile] t65 2016-06-02 06:34 pm (UTC)(link)
[They shuffle totally inconspicuously over to the open dumpster, and Luke holds out the bag of drugs. The drug bag.]

Do you want to do the honors?
chipouttaluck: (yeah he dead)

[personal profile] chipouttaluck 2016-06-02 06:40 pm (UTC)(link)
What the hell, sure. [She'll be throwing the bag in like she's trying to shoot a basketball. If she knew what basketball was, anyway. Point is, drugs are in the dumpster now.]

[She's started flicking the lighter, trying to get it to start.] Think I should just throw this thing in, too?
t65: (beru always said to clean your teeth.)

[personal profile] t65 2016-06-02 06:43 pm (UTC)(link)
If you like. Or you could- [Luke pulls a crumpled receipt from his back pocket and holds it out.] You could just use this.
chipouttaluck: (you gotta be shitting me)

[personal profile] chipouttaluck 2016-06-02 06:46 pm (UTC)(link)
Hmm... [She'll take the receipt, but let it be known she was thinking about it first.] Got it. [Too late for that, because now it's lit up and being dropped into the dumpster. She steps back a bit to watch.]

Guess that could've gone worse--

[That is, of course, exactly when the chems explode.]
Edited 2016-06-02 18:48 (UTC)
t65: (oh shit)

[personal profile] t65 2016-06-02 06:57 pm (UTC)(link)
[The Force is a mysterious and powerful thing. Luke's coming, slowly, to understand how it guides every interaction and choice in subtle, almost invisible ways. Impulses and instincts are a part of that guidance, leading him to make choices that are ordained and encouraged by the very forces that shape the universe. It's a strange, beautiful thing, and it's always with him.]

[When the dumpster explodes, and trash begins to rain from the sky, Luke instinct guides him with all of that ancient and vaunted power.]
Run!
chipouttaluck: (you gotta be shitting me)

[personal profile] chipouttaluck 2016-06-02 07:02 pm (UTC)(link)
[Running. Very good idea, let's do that.]

Shit shit shit--- [And, of course, swearing as she goes. Must help her keep her speed up. Yeah, we'll go with that. Who knew various chemicals mixed together by people addicted to those chems could be so flammable!]
t65: (c:)

[personal profile] t65 2016-06-02 07:09 pm (UTC)(link)
[So they run through the hail of trash and plastic and burnt trash and burning trash. It may be childish, but Luke is pretty sure having to be bailed out of this planet's penal system would be worse, and probably less appreciated by his friends. They turn a corner, and Luke stops to catch his breath.]

[He's kind of disappointed in himself to find that he's laughing.]
I can't- believe- [He slides to the ground.] Did you know that would happen?
chipouttaluck: (what you gonna do)

[personal profile] chipouttaluck 2016-06-02 07:16 pm (UTC)(link)
[Once it's clear she's not dying or poisoned, she'll be leaning on a wall. Almost doubled over, but not quite. If it makes him feel better (or worse), she's starting to get the giggles, too.]

Kinda--Kinda figured. Lots of stuff back home's explodey. But not-- [Here she'll make a big mushroom cloud shape with her hands.] You know, that explodey. Crap.
t65: (i need more smiling icons.)

[personal profile] t65 2016-06-02 07:18 pm (UTC)(link)
[Sheepishly,] Well, there were a lot of them. [Several of which he didn't even recognize as as drugs, initially. Then again, he's only heard of spice.] At least we know now that no one can use them.
chipouttaluck: (never said i was a role model)

[personal profile] chipouttaluck 2016-06-02 07:22 pm (UTC)(link)
There's a good point. [So... it all worked out in the end? Huh. Didn't call that. Still, they should probably beat it before people come around, lured by the explosion noises.] Wanna grab something to eat? [Awkward.] Hide from the cops?
t65: ('this fucker over here')

[personal profile] t65 2016-06-02 07:28 pm (UTC)(link)
Sure. It's on me. [Luke says, mostly joking. He knows they both have unlimited cash.] What are cops?
chipouttaluck: (cooler than being cool)

[personal profile] chipouttaluck 2016-06-02 07:42 pm (UTC)(link)
[That's a very good question.] Show up after you cause trouble to cause you trouble. Something like that.
t65: (yoda ur such a dick)

[personal profile] t65 2016-06-02 07:47 pm (UTC)(link)
I... don't think I've ever seen one before. [Luke cocks his head to the side. Mental note: stop asking Surely to explain things.] Well, let's look for some place to eat before they show up. C'mon, I saw a nice looking tapcaf earlier.
