Day 296 — Real MarinaNova — Busted
[ Did you really think you'd be allowed to explore freely to your hearts content? This was never meant to happen and it certainly wasn't meant to last — before long the security system kicks into gear, unleashing a veritable swarm of spider robots designed to encourage and hoard reluctant prisoners. You're welcome to try and escape or even destroy a few, but they'll keep coming in overwhelming numbers, armed with tiny tasers that zap and prod until every single one of you has been sniffed out and brought to the exercise yard.

The Engineers are waiting for you there. You were brave enough to exploit a security breach. Perhaps your rewards will be a one-on-one with the very people responsible for keeping you here? Or perhaps this is just a way to buy time. Either way, you'll be stuck out here until they decide to end it. ]


(OOC: This mingle is for those who went through the doors only. Feel free to mingle amongst yourself or approach the Engineers if you're brave enough! They will have threads for this purpose here: SMITH and MARY

EVENT INFORMATION | REAL MARINANOVA INFORMATION.)

[Smith is not happy. If you know anything about her people you'd be able to tell this from the way the normally greyish-brown exoskeleton has warmed and darkened to a bold russet. But you probably don't know anything about her people. In fact, you might be looking at this multi-eyed, multi-legged lady who is a good two feet taller than the tallest in your bunch and thinking she's a monster or an inmate from sector 6.]

Aren't you all curious and eager? [The voice forms perfectly coherent words, translated by your collars, but there is an effect to it that sounds something like the hollow trill of a cicada. Just walking into any glowing door that will have you.



(OOC: Please note, she is unlikely to use the name Smith or identify with the blond that is sometimes in MarinaNova.)

[Given the wide variety of alien life forms in Phanan's home galaxy this is a less terrifying conversation than it could be. The zapping robots on the other hand have been less welcome and a few of his prosthetics are starting to feel like they might be in for some real trouble. He smiles anyway.]

Oh come on, like I could resist the glowy thing.

[If there's one thing she's learned from walkers, it's when to fight, and when to run from a hoard. Unfortunately, escaping the swarming spider bots wasn't an option. She found herself herded along with everyone else.

She was just coming to terms with this place. The whole pod/virtual world thing. Now she's looking at ... She has no idea what she's looking at. Might as well ask.]


What are you?

[Looking back with several, if not all eyes.] I am one of this facility's engineers. [Not the answer you were looking for?]

I hope that's what you were asking. Otherwise, it's rude.

Such a wise reply.

[There are a few chirping sounds before words happen again.] I helped design and program this place. I didn't do a lot of welding.

[Well, this was strange. Martha looks up, masking what fear she may have.]

It is hard to ignore a door that opens up in the middle of the clinic. I'm unfamiliar with your kind.

[She was just thinking the same of Tyki.] Have you tried changing your perspective? Doing new things? Maybe the problem is less boredom and more running away from yourself.

If trying the same old things isn't working then it would be foolish not to.

[ being the counselor she is, deanna holds herself as straight as possible. there's a lot of fear and anger buried inside right now, but at least she's not crying like she was and her eyes are no longer red. she looks fairly normal now.

so she's careful when she finally approaches each being individually. no use in being confrontational or upset when one needs to be diplomatic. information is what she wants, not a confrontation. ]


Are you one of the people in charge here?

[ she asks this of both of them separately, her voice calm and even, just as it normally is, with a slightly hard edge. she's not giving them emotion. part of that is because she always feels like she's lost a limb when she doesn't have her empathic abilities and part is because she knows the importance of this meeting. diplomacy is the game now. ]

[ oh they will and they'll probably be the same as the ones she posed to the other. because that's how deanna rolls. she wants to compare answers after this. they don't get this opportunity very often. ]

It's a pleasure to finally meet you. [ it actually isn't, but as this one hasn't demanded something in turn, she feels she can offer this much. and maybe that'll receive some sort of response she can work with. ]

I'd like to know why we were brought here, what purpose we serve.

[ again leaving the "here" part vague to see what answer she'll receive. ]

You weren't. You stepped through that door of your own accord. If you mean the prison at large then you already know why you were brought here. Because you're guilty.

[He was going to talk to the one who looked less like a giant extraterrestrial crawdad, but Chekov happens to overhear this one tell another captive that she (she?) is an engineer. He was an engineer for, like, a day; maybe they have something they can talk about.]
