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!

How was Barbie world as bad as this?!

[ but at least that's a little promising. he's been through this kind of thing before? because she fucking hasn't! she is kicking harder at this thing. is there anything she can grab onto to pull herself away from it? ANYTHING NOT ALSO FLESHY??? ]

The meat's worse! But I'm tired of things trying to assimilate me -

[ screams with mouth closed. just because he has experience does NOT mean he's happy, or doing any better, and he hacks and slashes and burns at the flesh until he can get off the wall at least.

scrabbling at the fleshy ground, eventually she feels a groove where the floor is no longer meat mimicry, where it meets the real floor. she can give herself a pull to get out.

Yeah, not a fan either!

[ yay she will try to pull herself out of this horrible fleshy grip, then. where can we go now, she wants to keep moving Fastly. maybe if we move fast enough we can outrun its grabby meat. ]

[ back the way you came, back the way you came! shiro will follow quick enough once he gets his leg free, and you are - not necessarily in the home stretch, but you're trucking.

the path, fortunately, does not change. nothing chases you, although the entire maze is now frigid. you go back to the staircase shape, and you can go right (the straight path you did not choose) or left (back in the direction you started in).

There is no level of reimbursement this company can give us at this point...

What, you think they were ever actually going to give us anything?

[ right! ]

Nope! [ smacking his galra hand to reactivate it again as it flickers. ] Not even sure that Jeff is real, at this point, but we'll see next week.

[ good news cola



you solved my maze puzzle and only went the wrong way once. there's a grated vent ahead, once you've run far enough, that can be seen on the lefthand side the moment you round a corner. you could of course keep going straight, but that would just lead you to more meat, probably, and there's a quiet hum of technology coming through here.

I doubt it...

[ i did so much better at this maze than the one in homo. i can't believe i didn't force anyone to come with me to witness this. goddamn it.

well then. in we go?? ]

[personal profile] upholden 2024-04-12 02:07 am (UTC)(link)
[ i know it's so funny. no one will see in real time how this went. maybe you could have kept going without seeing the grate, but it's thursday and i want you to get to your AI seance attempt. could've generated a more complicated maze but here we are.

he's just going to remove the panel so that she can see what they've got. she'll fit through way more easily than he will - and it turns out that she's right at the main terminal for the bridge.
]

... so, we got this far but didn't necessarily plan what we were going to do once we got here.

[personal profile] thematics 2024-04-12 02:10 am (UTC)(link)
[ :bless:

well she'll slip out and get in front of the terminal, then. she's familiar with space ships and space stations and AI hardware. but. also things work different here than what she's used to... anything look familiar? anything look like a big obvious 'TALK TO THE AI' button? ]


We'll just figure it out. Trial by error.

[personal profile] upholden 2024-04-12 02:25 am (UTC)(link)
[ :bless:

unfortunately everything looks extremely alien in here, even by her standards. just the kind of tilted axis that's almost, but not quite, so it's hard to say what exactly is what. he's peering out as he sets aside the panel, starting a timer for her so she knows when five minutes is almost up.

ignoring that he's looking at it from a different angle, he's also bemused.
]

I've got your designation datapad with me, if you want to try and hook it up to the terminal. Familiar interface to work with?

[personal profile] thematics 2024-04-12 02:27 am (UTC)(link)
Nothing here works how I expect it to, but... Yeah, try and connect it.

[ any... keyboard like parts? help ]
upholden: 🅤🅝🅒🅞🅡🅡🅤🅟🅣🅢 (016)

[personal profile] upholden 2024-04-12 03:04 am (UTC)(link)
[ there are no keyboard parts. there's probably a way to activate a holo-keyboard like the I.R.I.S. has but you can't see. where that might be.

he will pull out the datapad from one of his belt pouches and pass it through to her, before tapping away at his own I.R.I.S. to try and route the access to either connect to the bridge or at least message the bridge system.
]

Try... typing a message? Or enter a profile query like you usually would? Test some things out - you still have time before five minutes.

[personal profile] thematics 2024-04-12 03:08 am (UTC)(link)
Good idea.

[ okay, for now she will refrain from pressing random buttons on the terminal. instead she's submitting a query using this data pad, like she usually does for profile checks! can we check...

Eudora? ]

[personal profile] thematics 2024-04-12 07:54 pm (UTC)(link)
[ well fucking OW and also concerning that she can't really perceive anything else at the moment, but look. she's here with a goal. gotta stay focused on that.

She'll try typing: ]


How can we help you?

[ and if that doesn't get a response relatively quickly, do a profile search for herself, isabel lovelace. trying to like. convey who she is through the limited functions available to her. ]
thematics: <user name=acrosc site=tumblr.com> (pic#16968931)

[personal profile] thematics 2024-04-12 10:30 pm (UTC)(link)
[ okay, some of that is almost understandable. IS THIS ABOUT WORMS okay

um um. if her best means of communications is just pulling up profiles. what if she tries pulling up vash's? then callisto's. does the system even know to distinguish them? whatever, that's what she's trying. ]

[ i understand... a stowaway worm...

well she will just keep entering profiles until i'm forced to stop. what about someone who's been active on her-mes lately? can she pull up ellya serry's profile? ]
