ROLE — CAPTAIN'S LOG 📁
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!

WEEK 5
SELECTION: DUE FRIDAY
no subject
[ ideally the previous callisto, shooting for information from just before they disappeared/died/whatever before we got here. BUT WHATEVER I CAN GET, MAN, IDK ]
TALK TO GANYMEDE
I wonder if any of the access tunnels are closed off or not...
no subject
We gonna go crawling around in the vents?
[ delightful. also, just getting right to the point for the sake of your busies: ]
Enda had a good idea. Was wondering if we could look into senior crew the way we look into juniors. If the original Callisto went missing in the month or so between the end of the winter tour and when we got here, knowing where he'd been running around and who with might be helpful.
no subject
[ he doesn't jump, really, but he does come back to full focus to look at her over his shoulder. ]
Captain. Hi. Maybe? Adrastea suggested it - she uses them all the time to fast track her way places, though she can kind of fit in them easier than I can. It's just a thought if we can't break in.
[ anyways. ]
... I know you're not going to think I'm crazy when I say that I've been on the evil twin or clone conspiracy theory for a few weeks now, at least. Ever since we stopped being brainwashed into loving Nut & Bolt, I'd been pretty sure of it even if the others thought I was stress-crazy. But we can definitely submit for that, if you want to. It'd definitely be worth trying.
no subject
[ and unpleasant! for him! ]
Yeah, we're leaning evil twin. Well. Who knows about evil really, but... Difficult, let's say. Either way—more info on the original might be more helpful than looking into random junior crew.
no subject
[ it'll be unpleasant! but what's new for him at this point. also this is just their sense of humor. ]
Way less pleasant to be around twin? Callisto from before - [ gestures ] Was a friendly, jovial kind of guy. They also look different even if it's not... a hundred percent, obviously. Because twins, and all that, but the original was sunnier in a lot of ways.
no subject
[ GOD. ]
I've probably dealt with worse. Unpleasant doesn't always mean bad, anyway.
no subject
[ IT'S FINE! ]
No, just slightly uncomfortable, sometimes. I think we both can say this isn't our first rodeo of awful in a lot of categories.
no subject
[ jeez! ]
I'd rather deal with people head-on than have to sneak around for every little thing. I figure him being... difficult... doesn't mean that his goals and ours don't align.
no subject
We are, yeah. [ alright, he'll stop the bad joking. ] I don't necessarily think it's an "enemy of my enemy is my friend" situation, at least, but I can get why some people are a little leery. Here's hoping we can kind of figure things out together and go from there - the end goal is all of us getting the hell out of Dodge. Think he's just as set on that.
no subject
It's different from being on a planet.

PART TWO: CALLISTO
[ like the past few weeks, there's an overlay after lovelace has received her results.
but the difference, this time, is that she feels a little more like herself. no presence of the man superimposed over her, no sudden thoughts that aren't her own - just her, and something that is bigger, and vast, and trying to talk to her in its own way. it's not alive, and it doesn't speak with a voice. but she still gets the impression that there's something it's trying to communicate. ]
[ probing, tentative, detached. it's a distant, yet somehow it's close - and almost familiar, in a way. synthetic and uniform, toneless, but imploring, like a tap on the shoulder or the fleeting touch on a hand as it fades in
and then back out. ]
[ it's sick.
she's
sick.
and she needs everyone's help. ]
no subject
at least she's gotten to the point where she's willing to immediately just reach out for ganymede to keep herself steady. ]
Okay, that's... Everyone, but... [ ow. ]
no subject
If you need to take a seat, let's get you settled.
no subject
no subject
[ callisto's pronouns aren't she/her so i'll give you that hint. ]
It was more feeling, before, right?
no subject
Yeah. Before it was like... an overlay of memories. This time it was a voice talking to me. Asking for help.
no subject
lovelace is however feeling kind of not great, though, because it's a lot of Bad all at once. ]
... asking for help..? Skipping over the memories and syncing you up with someone directly, maybe?
no subject
But it doesn't exactly tell me how I'm supposed to help with that, now does it?
no subject
frowning, just carefully rubbing her back a little but trying not to crowd or over-fuss. ] I'm - gonna go out on a limb, but did it feel like a person, or something else? When the Castle of Lions was infected, the king that'd uploaded his memories and as much of consciousness as he could into the AI tried to fight back against the infection.
no subject
No. Not human. Not like Hera and Rhea, either. [ that means nothing to him! wow! ] ... But still sick. [ so still feeling, lovelace thinks. even if it didn't exactly sound feeling. she's projecting. it's fine. ]
