Meet N' Greet

||All crew-mates. Please report to the Obs Deck to meet your new crew-mates.||

It's time for all the newbies to get a chance to have a formal meeting with the crew. Given the confusion of their arrival, that's probably a good thing.

Word gets out among the crew mates, spreading in a game of whisper down the meat-alley, that an informal crew meeting is what's happening, free from Stacy's prying ears, and sure enough, as soon as everyone's in the room, they're gestured to move in close, and a wall of blue energy goes up around them all.

"What exactly did you see? Anything I'd understand without needing to hear a dissertation on this place first?"

"Something about real faces. 'Don't trust the ones without real faces.'"

"And just cryptic enough not to do a damn bit of good right now," Nathan added.

"I think it'd be better if we just showed them," Lyta said, looking directly at Leela with a look on her face that hinted that Lyta was requesting the girl's permission for something.

Leela winces instinctively, but then juts out her jaw.

"Alright."

She knows how important the exact wording is.

Lyta nods then takes three deep breaths and, solidifying her block on Stacy's being able to read the groups minds, she focuses her attention on Leela. She closes her eyes as she slips gently into the girl's mind, finding what she's looking for rather quickly.

Her body jerks a couple of times before finally, Lyta stands very still. When her eyes open, her pupils and irises are not visible, overwhelmed by a bright white light that seems to be emanating somewhere deep inside.

And when she spoke, her voice had taken on an other-worldly tone. It was as if her voice were echoing in some chamber deep in her throat. And she wasn't alone. As Lyta spoke, Leela recited the very same words in tandem.

"They'll kill infants. Children. And realize, too late, that blood is on their hands. Do not trust them! Do not trust the ones without real faces! They are lying. They want to kill a star--the star has to be saved or the crossroads of everything will be lost. Un-Man must become god, not us--not any of us!"

Then, Leela fell silent as Lyta--her eyes still glowing white--looked upon the crowd.

"SEE!

Then, Lyta--still maintaining her block on Stacy--stretched out and touched the minds of everyone and anyone who was not immune or not resistant to her telepathy. And she showed them...

A bat-winged monster. A man with skin as dark as the darkest night, like its very own void, sucking in and killing all light.

A pharaoh wandering worlds, being trailed by legions of followers, wild-eyed and crawling over bodies as they fall from exhaustion, dehydration, and hunger.

Worlds fail and die, thrown into chaos and madness. The deepest depths of sin and depravity, and the chaos the results from them.

Horror. Madness. Chaos that crawls like a slick fungus over the surface of planets, and consumes them.


She shows them. She show all whose minds she can touch. Those she cannot, see nothing.

Rose has seen weirder things in her life than psychic mind links that make people speak in tandem - even if the words are cryptic echoes that bring some incredibly unpleasant thoughts to mind - but the vision is what bowls her over.

She hasn't felt anything this intense since her first extended vision years ago and this is straight off the scale she normally works on. She could swear to god at points that she's been ripped off her feet and plunged through a roller coaster ride unharnessed. The visions are utterly immersive, overwhelming and above all terrifying.

It's the dark monster that burns itself to her however. Even as she swears no light could escape that pitch she has the crawling sensation of it's eyes meeting her own through the blackness.

When the vision recedes she buckles over, one hand on her knee and the other up to her mouth, smothering the sound of the first hard dry heave that comes in the wake of that mental gut-punch. It takes her a second to breathe properly again, but when she can a florid swear-word is the first thing out of her mouth, followed by weaker hollow words.

"Oh my god... "
