event } ya gotta be a dolphin

[seeingyou]

WHO: All the little fishies!
WHAT: An underwater adventure
WHERE: Kupra City, or you can stay on Navi if ya want
WHEN: Dec. 20-Jan. 2 16
WARNINGS: Use ‘em in your threads if needed! And if you end up taking an extended dip in the big drink, please report it on the death page.

[Hello, passengers! Hope you're all ready for an announcement, 'cause Navi's voice is getting beamed into your head right about ... now.]

Attention, passengers.
We'll be landing soon on the planet Umora, at Kupra City.
We'll be docked for two weeks, local time.
Please stand by for atmospheric entry.

[Is it just your imagination, or does Navi sound more tired than normal? Either way, it's now time to BUCKLE IN, CHAPS. It's not a particularly rough landing, just your standard amount of turbulence, though it may seem a little jarring to those who aren't used to space travel.

Upon docking underwater and disembarking, passengers will find a bank counter just past the terminal, where your new windfall of Navigems can be exchanged for credits (the universal currency).

Have fun! And do try not to drown … ]

"Philosophy is a key component of quite a lot of psychology, an amateur hobby of mine." He nods, impressed, "Even without a degree that doesn't require much fundamental understanding. Do you prefer a more western curriculum or eastern teachings?"

He'll move to look for a place to sit at the promise of tea, "I confess after you saying it I must confess a certain excitement now after your description of the purpose of this ship."

It's still dangerous, and he still thinks it's a trap, but he'll confess it's exciting all the same.

"It is certainly one of my favorite topics," That and divination which he knows won't go over well with a man who has already professed himself a skeptic, if not in too many words. Murmur will be keeping that one close to his heart for the time being. "All of them." He answers easily enough.

"From what I understand the original design is long distance transport of personnel. Thus the lack of armaments or an armory of any kind. If you have a moment at some point Navi is a delight to converse with. Though I must advise certain topics will be lost on them, they are somewhat young and inexperienced with the complexities of social interactions."

He finds it charming, but worries for them all the same. While Richard goes to find somewhere to settle in Murmur will go make himself busy with getting the water ready.

"Has anyone thought of asking this Navi how long it will take to achieve our goal so we can return? I have speaking engagements."

He settles in and frowns, "also how much do we get from our so-called allowance? Forgive me this still reads like an episode of the twilight zone."

It was a favorite of his when he was a boy after all.

"...Is there a lab somewhere or any other facility? I would like to know if I need to find supplies."

"You know, come to think of it I haven't. I suppose I have not been in any particular hurry." He can, however, understand that others might not be so patient. Time is a luxury he has to spend as long as he likes on any one endeavor. World or universe ending notwithstanding.

"Another difficult question. I do not completely understand the currency exchange, and it does somewhat change from planet to planet. Fluctuating markets you see, but typically enough to accommodate a couple sets of clothing or thereabouts." Currency was a bit fuzzy to him. "Of course one may also be able to barter work or trade for anything additional. Navi handles ensuring that we are fully stockpiled on necessities for the length of the trip. Food and such, though if you desire anything specific you'll have to find that yourself."

Alcohol has been an intensely desired commodity of late.

"There is an infirmary which is also kept stocked, I imagine you would find most of what you need there. Floor three, should you wish to investigate further."
