OPEN PSL ❖ fragment space

[moes]

"Welcome to the S.S Phoenix! We hope you enjoy your stay!"

You open your eyes feeling a little stiff. The last thing you recall is seeing your planet get destroyed before a hand reached out to you--Captain's hand. You were then greeted with the same introductory phrase before receiving the keys to their brand new dorm, a device--you're told it's called the Babelfish, something that allows you to interact with others through the interdimensional network--and perhaps an extra thing or two.

You are then ushered into the onboarding area, where you can see your fellow passengers. Some foreign faces, perhaps even some familiar ones. Before you are given any time to think, however, Captain, at the head of the room, speaks up.

"Once again, welcome new guests, to the S.S. Phoenix! You may call me Captain. Today is your first day of onboarding, where you can get to learn more about us and your fellow passengers.

We are part of the Interdimensional Galactic Coalition, a system that was created to keep order and peace amongst the multiverse. This ship that you're currently in is now your new home. Consider the card that you have obtained your citizenship. However, staying here comes with a price.

As you already know, your worlds were destroyed. And we are here to help restore those worlds into proper order. But in order to do that, you must obtain Fragments. These mysterious Fragments will then power our ship's Revival Program. Those can be found in various worlds.

Now, if you have any further questions, now is the time to ask."

And she opens up the floor for questions--any questions.

[ OOC: Welcome, everyone, to a long form PSL in the form of Fragment Space! The premise of this is that your character's universes have been destroyed -- player's choice on the how -- and they have been rescued by the Captain to adventure to various worlds.

This PSL will very much be an exploration/mystery setup, with various types of settings that I will work with players on.

Locations for the S.S. Phoenix can be found here, and current NPC information can be found here.

In terms of moving things along, I will try to make sure that things move smoothly at least once a month. If you need to contact me for any questions/comments/concerns, please ping me either on plurk (tsundereban) or Discord (tsunderebans)! As this is an open PSL for my timeline, characters who participate may also interact with each other if they'd like, or keep things separate. I'm willing to run with things either way. ]

[ Literally rolled a crit fail so like, even though she may have slipped, she isn't noticed! ]

[s1986u4]

[phew... well, while she's under here, is there anything notable aside from dust bunnies?]

[moepcs]

[ Nope.

Nothing notable under there! ]

[s1986u4]

[Okay... well, trying to climb the couch again! Let's see if I get above an 8 this time.]

[moepcs]

[ Still not noticed!

Looks like the girl's actually taking a nap now. ]

[s1986u4]

[Hm! Anything visible on the phone from up here?]

[moepcs]

[ Phone's just on a timer - specifically set for one hour. ]

[s1986u4]

...highly concerning.

[Anything else she can see about the sleeping mystery girl from up on the couch? If not, Rosalind will head to the window.]

[moepcs]

[ She looks like a normal girl, looking like... a teenager, really.

But sure, window is right behind them - what she will see outside the window is not space, but what seems to be a spacious courtyard. ]

[s1986u4]

[Huh... indoor park? Has this ever been accessible to the public before? And are there latches on the window, since it isn't space?]

[moepcs]

[ There are, but they are impossible to remove. ]

[s1986u4]

[Grumbles. She'll be studying these, then... time to figure out why they can't be opened so she can invent a way to do it later, since SOMEONE won't let her use explosives.

Anything else to find here, or should Rosalind head back to warn everyone of the ominous timer?

[moepcs]

[ There's nothing of note at the window unless you decide to, you know.

Wake the innocent teenage girl up. ]

[s1986u4]

[Nope Nope Nope she's gonna try and make a run for it back out the door. Climbing back down the couch and... Wait can she steal the ominous phone? It's as big as she is right now, but.]

[moepcs]

[ what has an innocent girl ever done to you.......

I'm gonna need you to roll one (1) d20 for that. ]

[s1986u4]

[Been suspicious and shady and probably going to dissect them for science is what!!!

(Disclaimer: The contents of this tag are entirely the creation of Rosalind's all-encompassing paranoia.)]

[moepcs]

[ Unfortunately, the girl starts to stir from her nap and unfortunately notices and turns pale in the face as she immediately snatches her phone back, pocketing it. ]

What are you doing here.

[s1986u4]

Oh, shi...fty girl.

[Rosalind backs up and nearly falls off the couch.]

I could ask you all manner of similar questions! Namely, what are you planning!

[moepcs]

Hah?

[ She sounds baffled as she crosses her arms over her chest. ]

I don't have anything to answer to someone who snuck into my personal space.

[s1986u4]

What, am I supposed to just let you blow us all up in an hour's time?!

[moepcs]

[ Once again, with feeling: ]

Haaaah? For fuck's sake, and here I was thinking I was the one who...

[ She trails off, realizing what the other girl said and, well: ]

In what world does a timer immediately equate to someone being blown up!?

[s1986u4]

In a world where our worlds were destroyed out of nowhere and we're stuck in this gilded cage of conspiracy! Excuse my suspicion!

[moepcs]

...

[ She is utterly quiet for many, many seconds. Just dumbfounded as she pinches the bridge of her nose. ]

I know better than anyone what it's like to be constantly suspicious of others, but coming up with stupid shit like that with no concrete evidence is...

[ ... ]

Get out.

[s1986u4]

Wh -- fine, if you must.

[Grumbles as she climbs back down the couch, utterly devoid of dignity.]

[moepcs]

You decided to make assumptions and complete bullshit about me, I don't need to tolerate that in my space.

[ She takes out her phone, checking on it. ]

I'd much rather deal with those who would try and help me.
