Alright, we've finished up the Desmond thread so now it's time to get the hell off Beaumonde. We've got a mission planned in the Core off what little info the crew managed to pick up here. It's going to be quick and action-y with only a few threads so don't expect to stay long.
Our "Episode 1" is for all intents and purposes over. Tonight or tomorrow I am going to start a wrap up thread that is going to basically follow Roger from the cargo bay to the bridge. He's going to greet Mai as she arrives with her stuff, then go up and talk to Ros who is settled in by now, go say hi to Des who has recently arrived and is just getting a look at the Core or something, then hit the bridge and tell the ship to take off. Vitale and Keller can be interjected anywhere or nowhere, but the main idea is for one to three posts back and forth with the new hires to get them established as on the ship and then GTFO this planet.
Although we have talked about fears of the feds finding the Peerless, having the ship locked down, etc. none of this is going to happen. It's going to just be smooth sailing. If you want to talk about your participation in that thread, please reply in this thread (most important for now being how Mai is going to arrive at the start of it).
Now that everyone is happy on the ship (or soon will be in that thread) feel free to RP as you please with the ship en route to the Core. New crew meeting old crew, cleaning guns, girls having a sexy pillow fight, planning the next mission or even further missions down the line... it doesn't matter what it is, you can RP it during the flight.
In other news:
1) You may have noticed some WIPs added to the crew list. Namely we're filling out the ship with more NPCs other than just Lewis. We're trying not to be completely overwhelmed with them (Onas!) so take the next sentence with a grain of salt and remember moderation. If you have an idea for a NPC then feel free to propose it. Remember that these guys are mostly all from the Syndicate so at least at this stage of the game we can't have a new hire bring along their very best good friend from growing up because that just wouldn't make sense. Maybe down the road we can run into that person and they might join but not yet.
2) The ship layout is getting an overhaul because 1) we were nearly out of individual rooms before we got smacked with tons of NPCs and 2) the rooms were already huge to begin with. I'll let you know when I update that and then the room claims can begin again.
3) The side plot thread is there for your use. We've got plenty to deal with, but if you've got the time to type out a more detailed idea for your plot (or to add new ones) then go for it.
