ROLE — CAPTAIN'S LOG 📁

[dropoffs]

CAPTAIN'S LOG

welcome, crewmate isabel.

On WEDNESDAY, after returning to the ship from their planetside work, Lovelace will hear the familiar ping of the I.R.I.S. at her wrist; the moment that she lifts up her hand to check what the noise is for, a window immediately pops up. The projection fills in a spread of purple, and a message sent only to her designation loads in the window.

There is no compulsion to obey the request, but it is rather politely made - and could be interesting.

GOOD AFTERNOON, CPT. LOVELACE.

Hopefully I'm not interrupting anything? Sorry, if that's the case! I tried to time this for when you weren't busy with work planetside for the delivery, and wanted to give you the chance to explore if you wanted.

If you could please meet with me as soon as possible, I would appreciate it. There's some work that you might find interesting. I think if we did it together, we could really do a lot with it - and it might help us get some answers.

GANYMEDE

The observation deck is highlighted on the I.R.I.S. once the message is read, and will indicate where Lovelace needs to go to meet Ganymede. The CCO can be found easily there, waiting patiently, a data pad in their hands before turning to greet her companionably. They won't begin the discussion until they're sure that there's no one else around. While relaxed, it's hard to say what they're thinking, as there's currently no emoticons or symbols displaying on the visor of their helmet, but their filtered voice is still steady and calm.

"I'm sure you've got questions, and we've got a lot to go over. Let's get started."

RULES

As the role responsible for the captain's log, along with information that is acquired through it, Lovelace is expected to follow a few rules:

1. For now, keep your new designation a secret. Should this designation be shared with anyone without prior authorization, consequences and termination of position are possible. This can be revisited at a later date.
    ↳ As of w2, you can share your role with ONE non-role person.
2. If you distribute any information acquired, it must be done anonymously or without referencing the true source. This can be revisited at a later date.
3. Each week, only one person can be investigated. You can choose that one person, or you can select three from which a random individual will be pulled from through RNG. You cannot investigate yourself, senior crew, or previously decommissioned crew at this time.
    ↳ As of w5, a second person can be selected; these choices can come from both senior and junior crew, the previously decommissioned, and the old crew roster.
4. Selection must be made during Lovelace's meeting with Ganymede when summoned on Wednesday (ICly, OOCly the deadline is Friday). Once one or both parties leave the meeting, the meeting is concluded until reconvening for discussion of results on Sunday. This does not mean that the role can't be discussed in audiences, however!

[ as lovelace receives this result, she'll also feel a brief moment of disorientation; it feels like her thoughts are being super imposed by another set, another captain's, another crewmate's data besides the familiar face of gregor. something that she can't quite make out. after that, the drift effect is gone - it's just her, ganymede, and gregor's information. ]

TALK TO GANYMEDE

[ ganymede is actually coming to find her, this time - and before the mini event is to begin. pre work order, ma'am! ] Hey, captain. Wanted to grab you before things got rolling - the delivery's going to be a quick one, and there's not really a lot of work for us to do. The lady Vespertine has actually invited us to the shindig she's throwing, once the delivery's done, and all of us think it would probably be nice to just not worry about anything for a night. But I thought I'd let you know. I'm going to try and track your choice, this time, to see if we can't figure out what caused that... impression? That you got with Gregor's file.

Amalthea

MOVEMENT DETECTED ON FRIDAY MORNING IN MEGA PARK (EAST).

[ lovelace gets to see the designation, the information provided on shu - unusual activity logged, and everything - but she also gets the drift effect again. the same, robust man that she was before, but now she knows for certain it was a man. looking down at a different dossier, shu's face briefly replaced with that of a severe, younger person, details harder to make out beyond that.

she - that is, the man - heaves a weary sigh, before marking the green ACTIVE into a red DECEASED on the dossier. there's the impression of words, something she picks up more as emotion, that this is a damn shame. a young life snuffed out by an accident. a need to investigate what's happened to cause the concourse to malfunction in such a way.

lovelace feels the man turn, even if she does not physically do so. and then it's like the man, the impression of one that drifts with her, steps out of the moment and leaves her alone with ganymede again. ]

[ he's not wearing the face mask or his helmet, now, when it's just the two of them at the observation deck. but he is sitting there with looks like schematics for a floor/grid that isn't currently available. he doesn't even look up from it - because they're honest to god paper ones that he's printed out as opposed to him using his I.R.I.S. for this. ] I wonder if any of the access tunnels are closed off or not...

RESULTS

[dropoffs]

WEEK 6 - WEDNESDAY INFILTRATION

[upholden]

[ alright.

so, shiro is holding the physical map and standing outside of the senior crew quarters, but facing the direction of the bridge's doors. he's got the black bayard mentioned on his profile holstered on his hip at the moment as he regards the map thoughtfully, figuring out where the access hatch is - he's not the one that uses these particularly often, as he's told her before. ]

There's an access hatch right outside the doors, here... [ he reaches out to activate a touchscreen panel with the back of his wrist presented, begins drawing a pattern like one of those grid phone locks, then enters a command. it lights up in green with an ACCESS GRANTED: GANYMEDE greeting them - and then, disappears into the wall again before a hiss fills the small hallway and the outline of a door appears, sliding up up up

there are no lights inside of the access tunnel, once the hatch is opened. but he thunks his right hand against the wall briefly, like willing technology to work, and it illuminates in purple to show them the passage. ]

Okay. Plan of action, I'm going to go in just far enough that I'll technically be inside of the room itself. We'll set a timer - if five minutes goes by and nothing happens, then we're good to go in further and try to get access to the main controls with a solid escape route. We can maybe take turns on who's in and who's out, so we don't lose progress.

If something happens, you can grab me and pull me out. We figure out our plan B. [ probably lovelace's plan. ("plan") ] Shall we?

[thematics]

... Sure, sounds good.

[ lovelace internally like: damb he's going first so I can't just lie and say everything's fine to keep going.

but fine. she will go along with it. ]
