ROLE — MAINTENANCE CREW 🧹

[dropoffs]

MAINTENANCE CREW

welcome, crewmates ANISE TATLIN & CHARLES.

On MONDAY morning, Anise and Charles will hear the familiar ping of the I.R.I.S. at their wrists; the moment that they lift up their hands to check what the noise is for, a window immediately pops up. The projection fills in a glitchy spread of warm plum for Anise and cool swirl of minty green for Charles. A message sent only to their employee ID and address loads in the window.

While there's no compulsion to obey either of these requests, they do seem rather interesting, don't they? What's the harm in seeing what Europa and Thebe want to chat about?

Hey Anise, I've got something special for you.

Meet me over at Titan's Call, I have a job that you might find pretty interesting. Don't tell anyone, okay? It's top secret stuff.

THEBE

 

Charles,

Head over to Titan's Call as soon as possible, tell no one. You'll be debriefed properly in person. Don't be late.

EUROPA

The location of Titan's Call on the concourse pops up on the I.R.I.S. once the message is read, and will indicate where Anise and Charles should go to meet Thebe and Europa with beams of light leading the way - plum and mint respectively. There, past the entryway of Titan's Call, the two Senior Crew members are waiting inside the bar. The lights have been turned down low and there is one table with some snacks and drinks.

Thebe is sat in a chair at that table, preparing two separate tablets while swinging their legs. A little black cat is curled up comfortably in their lap. Meanwhile, Europa is found close by mostly surveying the area until the two of you show yourselves. They will gesture for them to come in and take a seat, though double-checking the area they came in to ensure no one is following. Once satisfied, they return to Thebe's side to prepare for the debriefing.

"We needed a couple of extra hands to help us out with some important jobs aboard the ship. Europa and I had a chat and we think that you two are up to the task." Thebe will place both tablets on a pair of stands, one with the pixelated face of a rabbit on it, the other with the pixelated face of a rat.

Europa, who remains quiet for the most part finally speaks up, "Let's get started."

RULES

As members of the maintenance crew, Anise and Charles are expected to follow a few rules:

1. For now, keep your new designation a secret. This can be revisited at a later date. Should this designation be shared with anyone without authorization, consequences and termination of position are possible.
2. If you distribute any information acquired, it must be done anonymously or without referencing the source. This can be revisited at a later date.
3. Once a week maintenance crew members will be tasked with accomplishing two jobs:

🐇 The Task Rabbit will be given a new task with each new week. Though the specific tasks may vary, it must be completed before Friday at 9PM EST / 6PM PST. Should they report a successful task completion in time, they may be rewarded. There may be a possibility that the rabbit may be tasked with an AC Kill, which may override other tasks.
🐀 The Pack Rat will be shown a list of three items to pick from. They must then submit the names of three people they would like to give the chosen item. This choice must be made by Tuesday at 9PM EST / 6PM PST. The Pack Rat may aid the Task Rabbit if they so choose with the AC Kill task, but will forfeit their ability to give out an item that week. This will guarantee the AC Killer's protection.

4. Additionally, the Maintenance Crew may use this time to speak directly with Europa and Thebe each week. They may ask questions, receive small hints, or simply chat with them, though any information received will be subject to their own discretion.

WEEK 1

[dropoffs]

TALK TO THEBE AND EUROPA.

[dropoffs]

[ They're here for your questions and concerns, after all. ]

[riverbeans]

[well he came over as soon as possible LOVE HIM EUROPA but]

... Interesting job names.

[dropoffs]

[ kabedons charles (no), something from the shadows near both Senior Crew members stares over with two blue eyes ]

Carried over, Thebe made the decision to stick with them.

[riverbeans]

[looks over at the thing in the shadows...]

Carried over from the last time someone had the job?

[dropoffs]

[ it peeketh... creeping out is a... black cat. ]

Yes.

[riverbeans]

[cat!! does it seem skittish if he carefully approaches...]

Were you still senior crew then, or junior crew like us?

[dropoffs]

[ cat is curious! and watches with a flick of its tail, Europa on the other hand seems to watch charles very closely ]

We were at your level.

[sexyasmieu]

"Important jobs," huh...?

Do they come with "important job" pay?

[riverbeans]

[HOW DID I KNOW ANISE WOULD IMMEDIATELY ASK ABOUT THIS]

[dropoffs]

Of a kind, yeah.

Certain jobs need doing around the ship, things we can't exactly do ourselves because we're juggling a lot already. They may be simple, they may be difficult, but regardless, we know you both can handle them if you work as a team and divide up the tasks.

[sexyasmieu]

Of course! If you were looking for someone talented and reliable, you've come to the right girl!

But what's in it for me? -- sorry, us?

[ charles is here too, she guesses. ]

[riverbeans]

Hey...

[dropoffs]

I can certainly add a slice to your end-tour pay, I guess, if that's what you're asking. If there's anything else I can offer instead, then I may mention it when you arrive to me with the job done, but otherwise...

Cash is king or something like that. I can relate.

[sexyasmieu]

Yay! ♪

I'll just need to get that in writing, and you've got a deal.

[ and she'll look at the tablets... ]

So it's two different jobs, one for each of us?

TALK TO ONE ANOTHER.

[dropoffs]

[ Maybe you want to hash out decisions together? ]

[riverbeans]

[looks at these tasks]

Well, looks like we'll be working together, little miss. D'you want to take the Task Rabbit this week or should I?

[sexyasmieu]

Ehehe. Glad to have you with me, Charles! [ a smile and a wink! ]

This task sounds like it'd be pretty easy for either of us! I can take it, if you don't mind.

[riverbeans]

I'll leave it to you, then! [grins back] Of course, I'm still happy to consult on the other one—got any preferred picks for item or crew members?

[a beat]

... To be honest, I don't know what most of those items are. But for recipient, we'll want people who we know will use them...

[sexyasmieu]

I get why a fingerprinting kit would be useful, but opera glasses seem like they wouldn't be that helpful... and I have no clue what an "8-ball" is.

[riverbeans]

I kind of wonder if the other items have more functions than what's apparent, but Europa says that this is all the info we're getting. [...] Do we want to go with the fingerprinting kit to be safe?

DECISION.

[dropoffs]

[ Pick your jobs for the week:

🐇 The Task Rabbit

Have a personal conversation with at least 3 individuals that you do not know well, or tend to avoid.

🐀 The Pack Rat

Select one of the following items and then list the names of 3 of your fellow Junior Crew members.

1) A fingerprinting kit
2) A pair of opera glasses
3) A magic 8 ball

Choose which of you is performing what task, claim and respond to this comment. ]

PACK RAT (CHARLES)

[riverbeans]

item: 3) a magic 8 ball (because neither of them knows what it is and curiosity wins)

crew members: margaret, shoma, eunhyuk

TASK RABBIT (ANISE)

[sexyasmieu]

[ Had a personal conversation with 3 people she doesn't know well: Nodd, Gregor, Eunhyuk ♥ ]

W1 TASK RABBIT TURN-IN COMPLETE!

[dropoffs]

[ thebe is here to accept anise's report and looks pretty pleased. they will be giving anise an item in exchange. ]

I managed to get this off Scrap. I think it could be pretty useful... This one's kind of "special edition" so try and keep it lowkey, okay?

[ this is a hypnos' sleep-eez pillow REDUX edition.

anise will get the feeling that this particular pillow may be used at her leisure (the effect has no time limit, even when the week is over.) it is fluffy looking and shaped like the planet uranus. it has an invigorating scent and will enhance one's alertness. the minute your head hits it, you will have the best, most restorative sleep of your life, imbuing you with energy upon waking. this item has three uses. the pillow can be loaned to another person for use. ]
