I thought there wasn't anybody at the top here-?

[hello? isn't is just those eight? DENIED BY WHO IS RIGHT.]

[messy]

That's what they said! So, what, did someone block them remotely?

[SHE'S ABOUT TO THROW HANDS]

[verminous]

This ship really is a pain...

[messy]

I fucking swear, I'm gonna blow up as soon as we can get the hell outta here.

[verminous]

Well-- thanks for not blowin' up on us.

[messy]

[i actually meant to type the ship but you know what that too

ANGRILY CHUGS HER WINE]

[frotag]

...hey, remember what I said about the ship itself bein' the one in charge?

[verminous]

...not sure how I feel about that, but it's sure not impossible.

[frotag]

It's either that, or some...hacker with a grudge against the company.

[messy]

What, like they uploaded evil Siri with the last update?

[inequals]

. . .

[ Rodion is giving off a vibe that is distinctly 'the hamster wheel cogs in her head are turning and maybe some pieces are falling into place, maybe not'. ]

[frotag]

Wanna share with the class?

[inequals]

Uhh...

Soo...

The Titan's Call had to get taped off two days ago 'cause of something weird that happened in here before.

[ She's looking towards the jukebox with apprehension. ]

It's gonna sound crazy if I explain the whole thing, but the short way of it is that the entire place started going kind of wacko.

The senior crew didn't know what that was all about either.

[frotag]

[ ...crosses his arms and settles in. ]

I mean, we're not going anywhere for a while. And, real talk, how much more crazy can things get at this point?

[inequals]

Ehhh. You really wanna ask that?

[ Something something, monkey's paw? ]

[messy]

Okayyyy, so what was it? All I saw were the drinks in the mess hall.

[inequals]

Oh yeah, Lukey and I put them there. The bar went totally crazy and made like, a thousand drinks nonstop. Didn't want another shake crashing all those so.

[frotag]

Maybe? Makes about as much sense as anything until we can get in contact with the crew again... and even they might not have any answers.

[messy]

Ugh... Course they won't. Why didn't they just decommission the stupid ship?

[roseoftexas]

[ PULLS A FACE. ]

[frotag]

Yeah, mood.

[roseoftexas]

Like some kind of Artificial Intelligence?

[ ...... ] If the AI's as reliable as the update systems are, then...

[frotag]

Thebe did mention something about how the senior crew wasn't around to meet us that first day because they were receiving those updates, too.

[ ... ]

Hey, if we got the nanites in our blood now, does that mean it'll even happen to us?

[roseoftexas]

[ oh, ew. ]

... I'd rather we didn't. Imagine if you wanted to do something and the ship could just-- [ clicks his fingers. ] Override you.

[frotag]

Yeah, screw that. But who the hell do we even go to?
