ROLE — NAVIGATOR 🧭
NAVIGATOR
welcome, crewmate SHOMA ENDA.
On SUNDAY, once the unfortunate procedures of ... "Execution" has gone over, Shoma will hear the familiar ping of the I.R.I.S. at his wrist; the moment that he lifts up his hand to check what the noise is for, a window immediately pops up. The projection fills in a spread of maroon, and a message sent only to their designation loads in the window.
There is no compulsion to obey the request, but it is an extension of knowledge, and curiosity - and could be interesting.

Shoma Enda,
Unfortunate and ill timing given what's just happened, but mayhaps this invitation can provide some insight into what's to come with these upcoming weeks. I wish I could have done this at a better time but it is a decision that must be made before our next travel destination.
Meet me here as soon as possible and I'll be sure to explain more thoroughly.

METIS
A location pops up on the I.R.I.S. once the message is read, and will indicate where Shoma needs to go to meet with Metis. It will lead to a command room in which only the Senior Crew is allowed access, and an important factor when it comes to navigation. When he gets there, he'll find the COS waiting patiently, observing a line of data and routes illuminated on a panel above the main control that vanishes once they spot Shoma. A brief ! displays on the visor of their helmet before they lead them towards a table for seating with a gesture, some snacks and drinks already prepared.
"Let's have a seat. Ready to go over the details?"

RULES
As the role responsible for navigation, along with information that is acquired, Shoma is 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 prior 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. As the Navigator, Shoma will be presented with two/three routes to take in order to reach the Eudora's next stop. Each route will come with a brief description, and Shoma may only choose one. No further details will be offered regarding the route until the following Monday, and each will have its own consequences to bear. If you choose not to act, then a choice will be made for you.
4. Additionally, Shoma may use this time to speak directly with Metis each week. They may ask questions, receive small hints, or simply chat with them, though any information received will be subject to Metis' own discretion.
5. Your findings will be given to you after your decision is made on Sunday, with results of the path chosen announced Monday morning with the new mingle post.

I'd probably spend just as long if you let me. I don't suppose there're star maps or anything we can use to even get a visual. [ he is accepting this. ] ...right now I don't have a reason to say no. At least until I see the consequences. Am I going to find out what they are at the same time as the rest of us?
[ this last part does not make him happy though and he pauses again. ]
Wait. From everyone-everyone? [ hm. he's not unused to keeping secrets from mizuki, but this kind of seems like a choice. ]
no subject
[ Preparing with Role Day. ]
Any possible useful information we may glean from this we'll be able to get with our decision, but the consequences will only be learned alongside the rest of us, yes.
[ Senior Crew is also included in that surprise, yay. ]
Everyone, including those from the same planet as you I'm afraid.
no subject
Of course it's a surprise. [ grumbles softly. ] But getting useful information now might help.
[ anyway he's still not thrilled about that, so he just silently drinks more tea and stares at the dossier for a bit. ]
...I think I know what I want to do to start with. And if it turns out bad, I can try again next week.
no subject
[ Even if not directly involved, there's a guilty touch to their words. No one deserves a fate such as that. Nor to having witnessed it. ]
Then I will be happy to work with you from here on, Shoma. I'll aid you to the best of my ability. And, hopefully, we can figure out some answers together.
[ A genuine feeling of appreciation, and gratitude, even if it feels murky. ]
no subject
Thanks, Metis. I'm hoping we'll figure out some things, too. [ a pause. ] Oh. Am...I allowed to ask you questions about this stuff outside of this room? Like if I message you during the week because I've thought of something.
[ or if i want to audience with mod on monday about his info. ]
no subject
Of course, just ping a location and we can discuss things in private for whatever questions or ideas you come up with. Though, I would only ask to avoid the messaging function for those kinds of conversations - I find it easier to discuss in person.
[ But also wary because of how the systems have been lately... So yeah! Go for it! ]
no subject
[ i am literally coming after your ass tomorrow. ]
no subject
[ For some peace and quiet. Shoma is allowed as the role so long as Metis is here. also my ass ]
