RAC IC for The Warrant

B52 (lionel is included from now on!!!).

[.....] Been a while since the last open Europa warrant.

To whom it may concern: Thank you for the dragon fire cracker left ignited on my desk. When security has scoured through camera footage, please accept a token of my appreciation.*

B52.

As of this morning, you will be welcoming one Lionel Owen aboard your ship as a probationary RRI candidate until the 3rd of May this year (2073). He is under no condition to be treated with disrespect, as per agency policy, and any indiscretions committed against him are punishable by suspension. In this probationary period, he is to be treated as a full-fledged member of your crew regardless of skill level. He will introduce himself to you all shortly.

Questions and concerns may be directed to myself or Captain Vance. Have a good day.

LIONEL.

I trust you have reviewed the company handbook, Owen?

(* do i even have to clarify she's being sarcastic, bc... )

[CASTOR]

Where are you and the crew?

B52.

saint nic has a late gift if you're looking for a reason to get off ganymede. director phan wants this one wrapped up before the new year. fifty mil, red level.

[warrant attached, surprise it's lionel]

HECTOR.

got the nicest mug for christmas. i'm pretty sure it's because copeland doesn't appreciate my sense of humor.

[......] by the way, your sister

B52.

I know it hasn't been an easy year for us. And I know that part of that is because of me. Whatever happens from this point on, I wouldn't exchange this crew for anyone else.

Enjoy the party if you go. Merry Christmas.

HECTOR.

busy?

Happy holidays to everyone! I hope people are enjoying their trips home, or have pleasant, restful plans for the occasion, even if you do not celebrate. Please take care of yourselves.

Thank you very much to my Secret Santa for the incredibly thoughtful present. I would thank you in person if I knew who you were!

[B52]

I'm still going to be on the ship for the holiday. If anyone else is staying, let me know. Maybe we can plan a dinner for Christmas Eve?

[CASTOR]

When I said you can I didn't think you'd really I'm not mad at

I'm sorry for how I spoke to you the other day, Castor.

CAPTAINS.

So what are we doing about these idiots?

B52.

[.......] The last time I said anything here, it was unprofessional. It's not going to happen again. We have new problems now, which means I'm only going to say this once: for the time being, don't go out alone. Be cautious of anyone approaching you on the street. The chances of a repeat are slim to none, but that's not the point.

And if you need me, you know I'm a phone call or filter away. At all times. If you want any time off, the further from Ganymede the better.

KIRBY.

I [....] know I've said it already, but if you need anything. Just let me know.

HECTOR.

Get some rest or I'll drag you into one of the med rooms and lock you in.

PENDLETON.

[...] Hey. You holding up?

[ * ftr he's still staying at Ireland's, for his crew's ref!! ]

[ posted is an unhackable & untraceable (non-live) video feed of the following: our masked kidnappers against a grey, stony backdrop without a single thing to identify the location. they're relatively jovial throughout the whole thing as they greet the RAC and introduce themselves as the ones who left the little present last month, DID YOU LIKE IT? :') because there's more to come!

edited throughout are short snippets of video surveillance of RAC members and footage of outside HQ as they launch into how the RAC would be nothing if not for them: the bad guys, the villains, what would you have without them? all you are is a bunch of desperate wannabes; it's just sad, tbh. we've been watching you, looking so safe and snug, but how safe do you feel now, reclamation agent coalition? are you missing someone, maybe!? :(

the terms are laid out: five names listed of vergil's incarcerated men to be released in exchange for the five agents they have. no footage is released of the agents, sry gaiz. the cost of failing to comply? in 72 hours, your agents are dead. bye bye now! :) ♥♥ ]

[ OOC: characters may reply to this!!!! there will be no replies back, though, obviously. also feel free to retcon in your character(s) into that video surveillance (it's like CCTV; it can be from anywhere in ganymede, but probably around HQ/the downtown core). this is the official kick-off of the 4-day kidnapping plot! ]

You have got to be fucking kidding me.

Who wants in?

1. Please comment, either in a filter to me or not, what kind of thing you would like. Ie. my name's Kirby Copeland, my favourite colours are blues and greens, I like nail polish, nice teas, fluffy socks (the B52 is coooolllld), stuff for baking, fingerless mittens and hot cocoa. And bath bombs!


2. If you are shy, there is also a box left with the receptionist downstairs!


3. Price limit of 25 woolongs per gift!


4. No lumps of coal or similar, please. This is not the thing for that! If you absolutely think that you can't be an adult and give the person you're paired with a decent gift, get back to me and I will sort something else out.


5. All gifts need to be delivered to me by the 21st! I will then distribute them with possibly a merry army of '68 helpers. It is up to the gift giver to decide whether the gift will stay anonymous or not, although I of course will know your identity.


6. Have fun!
