GR͏∀VE̴Y͞A̵ЯD 13 DECOMMISSIONED
t̀h̡e u͝nḑerbe̸l͞l̵y ̸o͜f th̴è ̡şh̷i͠p.
Crushing pressure is the initial sensation you can recall upon awakening. The stench of fetid, hot steam fills your nose, motes of dust and dirt floating upwards to cling to your skin. Down you are pulled to the cold ground, and all at once you realize you have forgotten to breathe. As you gasp back to life, you are flung onto a pile of scraps and trash, as the enormous machine that spat you out grumbles a little, and then goes silent. You are whole somehow, alive... but at what cost?
Popping out of the grinder, you look yourself over and find that any injuries you may have incurred during your death will be healed. While the scars that remain from the process will serve as a stark reminder, you will be able to get up on your own two feet without issue.
Thin, tapering metal (?) claws unhook from overhead and lower themselves, proceeding to guide you around. Your clothing starts sticking uncomfortably to your skin in the humidity of this strange, new place. Overhead you can hear the tinny humming of flickering lights overhead, arranged in a singular, thin strip and snaking around the serpentine halls. Along exposed pipes, wires, and the walls, a rust-colored substance creeps in web-like patterns, climbing towards the ceiling lights.
The deep grinding and groaning of the ship begin to meld into one low, deep moan from all around. It dips and rises in pitch, and becomes sickening to listen to if you focus on it for too long. Maybe, it's the ship's way of saying Welcome, to the underbelly of the CSS Eudora, home of the decommissioned.

Some things to keep in mind, while amongst the dead:
💀 Mini-events will be posted on WEDNESDAY at 3 PM EST / 12 PM PST and 6 PM EST / 3 PM PST, and are due at the same time they are for the living. Any changes to the schedule will be announced in the graveyard channels.
💀 Weekly effects will still hit you here, in the belly of the ship. Mods will make sure to announce any special changes based on being the graveyard; otherwise, please assume everything is 1:1!
💀 While not perfect, there is a healing factor in place. It is extremely sluggish, uncomfortable, and does not negate the fact that you're injured and likely in pain. If the injury is too severe, you might wind up dying from it if left untreated. Again. If you have a pre-existing condition like an illness that has been exacerbated by factors beyond your control, you will find that for the time being these symptoms are at their most minor.
💀 That said, while double death is possible, you'll find yourself reviving after 4 hours fully healed, but feeling like complete garbage for the rest of the day. Message your mods if you find yourself getting killed while dead, though! There might be a special surprise involved.
💀 Your possessions, minus clothing besides what you're wearing now, can be found in the bunk pods and their storage. Yes, while it might not include clothes, it does include any Omegamart Promotional Items, Scrap purchases, home items, etc that you were in possession of. if you had a lot of things, the cubby might jam or have difficulty closing. Better organize. If you arrive on Saturday during trial, belongings will return at the end of trial.
💀 Communications, while you cannot text via I.R.I.S., you can still send messages through HER-MES. All other functions for I.R.I.S. are available along with direct data transfers. Dead can send private letters to the living! An inbox can be accessed from the family computer at the canteen. If you find it locked, it is because we are updating it.
💀 Living livestream is broadcasted on the TV screen in the canteen!
✔️ Upgraded Quality ✔️ Audio ✔️ Translit Captions that sometimes fuck up ✔️ Dramatic panning ❌ Color
💀 Planet locations are free to use! Upon the Eudora landing planetside, you will find that as you meander through the various parts of the Belly you may run into one of locations of the current planet instead of where you were meaning to go. These locations are indeed still populated, but the people are more like wisps and will not react much to any conversation. Though you can interact with stuff there you cannot take anything with you out of the location "rooms".

w2 CYOA react
He looks deeply displeased; enough that he has sprouted a tail that's currently lashing back and forth behind him. (Except for when Nodd kisses the sheep and it becomes Charles, because that's just weird and kind of funny. I believe that the true intention of these animal curses is just to make everyone okay with kissing animals so that Sidon can get a proper ship. Taps forehead.)]
no subject
Eunhyuk watches this insane amount of people pile in. He would find this sheep charles funny but charles is BURNT AND BLOODY ALL OVER??? ALSO SHOMA THEIR NERD, THRONE AND HER MISSING LEG!!! ICHIBAN HIS ROOMIE!!!! emotionally collapses
looks at luke's tail instead. is this a dragon scalie tail]
no subject
There aren't enough pods for this. [HE SAW IT ON THE TV...]
no subject
They'll have to coordinate. Or someone has to take charge and assign shifts. If it's left up to them, then no one will be healed.
no subject
...Maybe we can leave them a message about it. Or we can try to get Io to supervise.
no subject
We could. But I don't know how many of them will listen. [a beat] To Her-mes or to Io.
They're very similar to us.
[he meant to say just luke but he's including himself in there to be fair]

He is here, frowning heavily in particular. Like Dahut earlier in the week, his skin is flecked with a lil bit of ice.]
no subject
Yaywon assigned Luke scalie so I guess this is a dragon tail now. It's fine. They can stand here being very unhappy together.]
Another "mission," you think?
no subject
It seems like it... Unless there is another group again. One of them will be.
no subject
Well the other group is the NPCs apparently so at least they can rest easy on that. Imagine if everyone bullied the NPCs about not doing their jobs and now there are no mission-based CYOAs for the rest of the game
He sighs.]
Amalthea said it was unlikely they'd find an emergency docking location. Supposedly, most planets don't want incidents happening on their soil. [Intergalactic politics... complicated and hateful...] And space-jumps take fuel, and have limited distances.
[He hasn't decided how much he truly believes everyone's hands are tied, but it seems like important information to share if they're going to be stuck watching people tumble in like this. STOP LOSING LIMBS!!!]
no subject
There has to be somewhere. We can't just... We'll end up like the others if we stay floating in space. The "ghosts."
[Why is this 13 Ghosts now, wait.]

no subject
some of the little wisps of cloud that's been hovering around him idly turn stormy. hrmgh.]
no subject
Luke glances at him, then back at the screen, trying to gauge if he can tell who caused this reaction. It might be difficult, with the dramatic camerawork...]
...It doesn't look like a senior crew member's with them. [Like, they're there helping take people to the medbay, but it's not like last time with Adrastea.]
no subject
Nosebleed [eunhyuk... terrible nickname upgrade] said that last week there were two groups. One was a mission led by Senior Crew, and then clownham group was an abduction without explanation.
Though that's the last I heard.
no subject
ALSO HELP Luke blinks, turning to look at him.]
"Nosebleed"--is that Eunhyuk? [NOT LIKE THISSS]
no subject
The both of you are liars, so it felt wrong to single him out.

so he just sends dahut a suika multiplayer invite]
no subject
They really do need more pods...
[Said as he accepts this invite so they can start playing suika in front of 6 massacred people's salads.]
no subject
[if it were so easy to get more pods, scien assumes... they'd just... build more?]

Were there always only two pods, in the medbay?
no subject
Or I think we didn't.
no subject
Come find me later, okay?
[He wants to take notes of everything Vash remembers and doesn't remember so that they can see if he's getting worse tbh]
no subject
[ YOU ARE ALL STUDYING HIM LIKE A LAB RAT ]
