Attention everyone:

Santa is REAL here!

That is all.

To all passengers of the HMS Surprise,

Hi there, ship's engineer Gregory Knox speaking! So uh....how's it going?

We hope you're enjoying the modifications to Suri and that she's been treating you all well. We simply regret to inform you that due to a coolant leak in the personnel-only area, we're going to have to stopover again in another reality beginning approximately Dec 15th for all of you, so...your hotel bills have all been paid and we aim to make this holiday as comfortable for you all as possible!

Please leave your Christmas, Chanukah, Kwanza, Festivus, or Ramadan lists with us and we'll take care of all the shopping when we return with Suri on Dec 25th....ish.

Any questions?

so, uh. spaceship, huh?

right. could still be the fever making a cool escape from

yeah, so hey. i'm glenn. 'sup?

I have been instructed to make myself "more comfortable" for our present passengers. Therefore, I will be landing on the date of 91512.93. For those of you lacking in your understanding, this is tomorrow morning at what is approximately 6 A.M.

You may enjoy your swimming pool, McDonald's, and shop of sexual persuasion in a few days. Please do not interrupt the remodeling process.

I have also been instructed to answer any questions.

Well, that was some adventure, wasn't it? Be lying if I said I didn't enjoy bits of it. And I do lie a lot. Hope everyone is recovered, in good health, that sort of thing.

Odd working with myself. Again. Really ought to not make that a habit! Not much of a choice in the matter so long as we're here, however!

So, Red and I decided to try carving these. . .pumpkin looking things, since it's kind of around Halloween. I'm gonna be sad when they rot and I have to throw them out.

( Behind cut, not cut in game )

I have brought back samples of five new species of plants and three new bugs to study. If anyone can catch one of those chicken things, or finds a way to bring one of those blue elephant creatures on board, let me know.

I have been instructed to inform all of you that we will be landing in the next five minutes. Should you wish to disembark, it is emphasized that you wear the teleportation cuffs found in each bedside table when exploring the planet. Removing it at the wrong time will result in not being able to return to the ship when I am ready to depart in seven days' time. You will be forced to remain here and live out the remainder of your short lives.

However, please remain calm. Keeping it on will allow for me to collect you when it is time to leave and bring you back to your rooms. I also instruct you all to abide the laws disclosed on your mobile devices. If you are arrested, I am in no way responsible for any of you.

Enjoy your stay in Zanarkand. And do not injure yourselves.

Good news! I've found a game room! I think.

Bad news! The pool table-like thing is on the ceiling. And now so am I.

I can't seem to get down. There was a minute where I was on the floor looking up and now I'm on the ceiling and none of my -- talents will get me down.

Help?

I think this means I found a zero gravity room. Although, the pool table might get in the way.

So I finally figured out how to get into Science Lab 3. It's going to take me longer to figure out how to use any of this equipment, though.

You know how in cartoons when someone needs to make a moral decision, an angel and a devil appear on either shoulder? Mine just became real and are currently sitting on my desk arguing with each other over the morality of cloning. So far, I agree more with the devil's argument.

We're on a space ship? This may be the most amazing thing ever! Though I'm still not positive that I'm actually here and haven't gone mad.
