Cycle 003: Voyage of the Mare Crisium (Integration)

WHO: Everybody (this is a group plot post)
WHEN: This post actually takes place Wednesday, June 12th, but nobody knows that.
WHERE: The Hive
WHAT: This plot post IS an interactive scene, and characters can feel free to interact below and are encouraged to do so! We’re also going to take care of some of the inactive PCs with this post, as well as give people a chance to mix up their locations. Huzzah! Removes Emma, Jon, and Eden from the pool.
WARNING: Please take care not to assume with other player characters. Give others some chance to react/weigh in before rushing ahead to a finish an interaction. That’s the fun of group posts! Everyone can and should interact! But it is a little trickier because of that, so just be considerate.

( Then the walls came down… so to speak. )

Cycle 003: Voyage of the Mare Crisium (June 8th)

WHO: Everyone!
WHEN: Saturday, June 8th, dawn
WHERE: Nowhere, Middle Of
WHAT: Opening another calendar day spent on the island. This post bumps the calendar forward and contains a GROUP MEETING, so feel free to reply here if you want your character to have an assigned job, share information, pitch ideas to the group as a whole or publicly interact with/argue with/question everyone else! MODNOTE: It is cool to respond to this post with short tags, like in an interview/1st person post.
WARNING: This post does assume the presence of at least most of the cast. Characters are not required to respond, but all the information shared in this post and subsequent comments can be assumed as public knowledge. As always, please don't feel like you have to jump in new scenes right away if you're working on incompletes. Finish those first, if you can, for continuity’s sake. It’s totally okay to gloss a scene ending in order to move forward!

( Excuse me, can I have everyone’s attention, please? )

( Abandon ship! )

Mechanical Error

WHO: Archer and O’Brien
WHEN: Wednesday, June 5th, night

Family Time

WHO: Archer and Hunter
WHEN: 31 May, morning, long before guests are set to arrive

WHAT: Uncle Archer’s genuinely glad that Hunt’s here for another summer. And no, not ‘cause now he’s got someone to go running with him.

Shooting the Breeze

WHO: Archer and Max
WHEN: 30 May, evening
WHERE: the lounge
WHAT: The night before they’re set to depart, the captain makes an effort at relaxation... since he probably won't have much time for that once the cruise gets underway. He visits a friend.
WARNING: Do I have to keep warning about Archer’s bad language or can we all take it as a given at this point that he’s basically incapable of cleaning it up?

( He was a man who woke up early and went to bed late. )
