WEEK 1

[bathymetric]

Happy New Year! ... You're still here. Looks like The Captain wasn't lying when he said the murdering is now up to you. That, or you can all live here on your own. Regardless, it's time to settle in. The days start passing much less eventfully after that first one, and, well... on it goes, huh?

There might not be a whole cruise ship to explore just yet, but there are a variety of amenities available to all of you! Who ever heard of a boring cruise ship, anyway? As the week goes on, you might even start to see some of those strange coins appear for you!

Better buckle down and get to know your fellow passengers, though, if you want to stand a chance of weathering this storm.

[ ooc: Welcome to peace week! Feel free to mingle (and investigate, if you like) to your hearts' content! Please ensure all investigation toplevels are marked accordingly, and otherwise enjoy! If you wish to talk to The Captain or Davy Jones, look here for the former and here for the latter! ]

I see. It is a tragic romance.

[boy what made him think this was something he could talk about]

I do not understand why humans are so fond of those.

[bonesorter]

Well... [She has to pause to think about why it was she decided on this book to read.] It has started tragic, but I want to see if the characters in it are able to overcome and be given a happy ending. At least, that's made me me curious about this one. Plus, it is one I've never read before, so it's exciting experiencing something new in comparison to what I'm used to.

[ltcommandroid]

I do understand that. I have been attempting to make my way through these books...slowly, so that I do not run out of new material.

[It's going......semi-okay, maybe?]

[bonesorter]

Is that so? [That's probably a good way to go about it, though Lorna is perhaps a little impatient given how she's never had so many books to choose from before.] So which one have you been reading so far?

[ltcommandroid]

I have been reading about the military history of a war in "Mobius".

[it was against eggman, 100%]

One side relied very heavily on robotic drones, but it sounds as though they were not especially well-constructed.

[bonesorter]

"Robotic drones"? What are those?

[Lorna has never heard of something like that before.]

[ltcommandroid]

Mindless machines controlled from another location, often with weapons capacities.

[did that....help..........]

[bonesorter]

That sounds... dangerous.

[To put it lightly.]

But you also said that the ones mentioned in the book were not well-constructed, yes? Does that mean they do not work as intended?

[ltcommandroid]

It means that they were easily destroyed by the enemy infantry.

[this just in, sonic the hedgehog is "infantry"]

They were attempting to conquer lands that were not their own. so it is likely for the best.

[bonesorter]

I... I see. In that case, I am glad that they were a threat that was able to be dealt with. They sound like they could have been frightening if they had been left alone to do wicked deeds.

[ltcommandroid]

Indeed.

[It sounds like military history isn't great common ground, though.]

I will soon have to move on to novels, if I want to keep having reading material. Do you have any recommendations?
