I'm not the kind of person to panic over things. It doesn't really do anyone much good, in the long run, so I've been working through the situation since the lightspeed jump completed.
We're already in orbit of the planet, and I'll need to recharge the ship to complete the return jump. If we can complete the mission so that the Eudora can leave Strihira, then, great. If we can't - you guys get to spend a little time dressed up and taking a break off the ship, and we'll figure something else out.
Unfortunately. [ :nyeh: energy even without emotionshare ] But what I can infer is that it's likely a plant, or perhaps something used to take care of the plants in the Hanging Gardens, since it's central to the location itself and apparently related to this Blooming Ceremony all these elite rich are attending.
A plant seems obvious, but I guess we'll find out.
...We're really supposed to just go in and steal it in front of all those people? Everything really is like a movie here... but it's like they can't decide on a genre. First sci-fi, and now we're doing Ocean's 11?
[ a blue light - besides the usual glow - illuminates the inside of their visor, and data can be seen as they tilt their head thoughtfully. then the data disappears when they seem to get the information that they need. ]
Oh, I see. [ they sound... interested. oya? ] If you can steal it, then I don't see why not, honestly. But if you can all just get some information it might benefit us more than attempting that - your flight suit helmets can act as earpieces to communicate with one another and me, even if they're down to earpiece size, so you can relay it to me.
We probably can do that. We do have a movie theater, but yet another place that's out of commission at the moment.
[ confirming that you will not be getting that this week just fyi. ]
If I had to take a guess, I would likely say because you're a music person. If need be, you could say that you're there to perform and be able to duck under the radar that way. There's also a good number of people in a younger crowd that you would be able to mix in with.
Ehhh, you've really locked away the interesting places, haven't you?
...I don't know if my style of music would fit a big bash like this. [ now he's just picturing a bunch of rich people in their fanciest outfits moshing and headbanging... which, honestly? kind of hilarious. ] But I'll keep it in mind.
Maybe it'll be kind of fun. I've never been to a fancy party before.
[ he says this like he expects something to definitely go wrong but hey they can maybe enjoy it while it lasts? ]
[ enigmatic but also they're just playing. they tilt their head thoughtfully. ]
You're smart, you can get creative with it. Besides, it takes all tastes across - I've seen a good number of people getting into rock music that I wouldn't have ever expected before it was introduced. [ so ]
Enjoy this one. If nothing else, free food and drinks. And I'm just a call away.
But yeah, I know. That's not really what I meant. It's more like - they usually expect a certain kind of music for things like this, right? So it's less about what one person likes and more about what we're supposed to do for something like this. But I guess we'll figure it out when we get there.
Can't complain about free food. [ he is but a simple teen. ] Too bad we won't be able to bring any back for you. I think they frown upon that at these kinds of things.
No promises~ [ sing song, in their autotune, but the glow in their helmet crescents like someone's eyes crinkle when they smile just right. ]
You can always see what the musicians there are playing, or what sort of instruments that they have. If nothing else, I think we have a couple of guitars that will at least be beautiful enough to pass muster rather than have any noses turning up.
[ the last part does make them laugh, though. ]
If you find anything spicy, see if they'll give you a to go bag.
Seriously? I'm definitely taking one. [ as if he'd ever pass up the opportunity!! ] I know there are ways to blend a guitar into formal music, if that's how it is there... It's just not something I've ever done.
Maybe I'll be able to get away with it with the performer cover? [ grinning. ] At a shindig like this, they've got to have something. I'll see what I can do.
[ this is a lot easier than thinking about weapons. ]
Keep it, after all this is over. What're they going to do, charge you?
[ y'all are making more money than some of the people at this party, frankly. ]
Let's see if we can find out what the venue will be playing... I do have some of the information here, exclusive as the whole shindig is. [ they sit back in their seat, switching which leg is crossed over the other to scroll on their datapad. ] You can use the descent to think over what you can play if you need to.
[ but yay... a snack for adrastea. (it will be crushed in kazuki's pocket when he gets mcfucked up) ]
Shouldn't be too hard to blend in, then. That makes it a lot easier for me. The others... [ glances. he does not trust them with instruments. ] ...They'll figure it out.
[ krusty krab pizza... is the pizza... for you and meeee ]

It's not much of a consolation, but I don't actually recall getting on board the craft either.

I guess a break won't be a bad thing. [ party party ] They really can't give us more information than this? We have no idea what to even look for.

Play it by ear, so to speak.

Information first. That's... a little easier, probably. [ hm. ] Why us, though? Mistral-san might be qualified for this, but I'm definitely not.

[ for WHAT, kazuki ]
Already on it. I've been getting some practice in improvising lately, too, so don't worry about me too much.
[ i hope when kazuki gets mcfucked up adrastea's snack is magically intact. ]

[ for whatever he wants!!!
they nod to him to acknowledge it, scrolling through the information that they have. ]
There's a few different groups that will be playing, it looks like, so you can have fun with that.
