[hatch log] the stealth ship's running out of fuel
CHARACTERS: All
WHERE: The Station + Concordia
WHEN: DAY :29 - :30
SUMMARY: A new brood hatches; two new hosts arrive in Concordia.
WARNINGS: Will update as necessary.
YOU WAKE UP. Something is different - something unnamable, but palpable. You aren't the same person you were the last time you were aware of yourself.
You might not know it right away, though. What you do know: you're in a just slightly claustrophobic compartment. A gentle white light diffuses from the top panel. You're wearing the clothes you remember from wherever you came from. You feel... good - regardless of what condition you might have been in before you came to this place. Whatever injuries you might have had, whatever agony you may have been experiencing, whatever fear dogged your heels, they’re all gone. It’s quiet. Lastly, there’s a faint pinch at the base of your skull. Reach back to it and there's a small cable connected to the base of your neck and running back into the rear wall of the compartment. Disconnect it. Then it’s not so quiet anymore. Wherever here is, you aren't alone. You can feel that in your head: something big taking up space.
Welcome to Station 72, Mara and Murphy. All new hosts will have one day aboard the Station before being whisked off to Concordia to join the others. Get to know one another, ask the guardians of the Station - Prince and Cathaway - any burning questions you might have, explore Station 72. At the end of the day, a slick stealth shuttle will arrive in the hangar to take you to Concordia.
The pilot of the craft of a young man who buzzes across the fresh mental connection. It's loud enough to be irritating; he apologizes for it a few times during the trip through the pieces of the multiverse, as the ship pops into existence over the planet, and descends into the bustling inner city of Concordia in the dark hours of the morning on DAY 30. Nirad lands the stealth craft in a garden district; once you've disembarked, the ship reverts to an autopilot sequence and lifts off of it's own accord.
From there, it's just a short tram ride to the Bearings Apartment block building. The hosts, Nirad explains, have rented out Level 13. There are still some empty rooms there if you want one (you probably want one). That said-- if you don't want to go to Bearings and meet your newfamily comrades in arms ...friends...?
No one's stopping you. But some of them might come looking.
((OOC Notes: This is a mini-hatch log for Mara Jade and John Murphy; on-Station prompts should be closed to either one another or Station NPCs, but Concordia prompts may be open to everyone.
If you have questions about the mission specifically, direct them to the most recent calendar post HERE. You can find a more detailed overview of the hatching process HERE; you might also want to take a glance at the MISSION CONCORDIA BRIEFING.

No. [Fighter brings to mind the guards on the Ark, the grounder warriors. He'd never put himself as one of them.] I'm a survivor.
[If that meant fighting, he'd fight. If it meant running, he'd run. In his experience, the latter tended to be the smarter option.]

no subject
[It'd probably be easy to dismiss as teenage dramatics if it wasn't for the look in his eyes, the weight of experiences he doesn't want drawn to the surface rolling in his mind. He looks away, gives a short shake of his head as he pushes away from the wall.]
All you need to know is that I can look after myself.
[He didn't need her, or anyone.]
no subject
And you haven't been where I have.
[But still.] What can you fight with? A blaster?
no subject
I don't know what the hell a blaster is. [Not walking away, but patience gone for weird words.] We have guns. Knives. Stun sticks.
[A whole bunch of other things in between. He can't be bothered to list all of them, when the general point is that he'd use whatever he could get his hands on when he needed it.]
no subject
no subject
A gun.
[He echoes back. He doesn't have one hidden up his sleeve, but he does have the image in his mind, the memory of the weight of a rifle in his hands, the sensation of recoil and the sound of gunfire.
Blaster makes sense, really. If you were naming things for what they did.]
no subject
[A second too late, Mara wonders why she cares.]
no subject
Yeah, well, if you see any around, let me know.
[He thinks he'd prefer a gun, or a knife. He knows exactly what damage can be done with those. But he wouldn't say no to any weapon.]
no subject
Is that a request?
no subject
You said I should have one.
