Meet-n-Greet

The rest of the crew assembled on the Observation Deck to meet the latest editions to their numbers. After the revelation that their worlds are gone, many of them are even more eager to see people they knew from home.

Several people are set up near the doors to provide the new people with omnicoms and comm rings. New crew-mates might see a tall man in green armor and snake girl among their number. There are also several authoritative-looking figures ready to introduce themselves.

There's a lot to tell the new people. It's going to be a lot to take in.

[ooc: Only new characters and Command Staff can start new threads for introductions, to limit the number of threads. Everyone else, just tag in and have your guys greet the newbies.]

"That much I've gathered, I'm afraid." Words like 'chosen' being flung about as if they were prophetic rarely meant good news. And Turlough was never accused of optimism.

"They say wherever you're from, it's gone."

His response was a blink. That reply left him cold, but he wasn't the type to fall apart, unless he was cornered. "You don't believe what they say?" he asked. It would certainly be rather pointless for him to enter into mourning if it wasn't true.

"I believe in the people of Frontier, forever and always."

"Any particular reason why? Given I have never been there," he asked, diplomatically. Because that was a little vague for him.

"Because they've fought angry super-dimensional bugs before and won!"

"Yes, I can understand how that would be a mark in their favour," he replied mildly. "My own planet does have experience with bugs, though more intergalactic than interdimensional."

"So the ship could be wrong."

"Certainly shouldn't be considered infallible," he agreed. He held out a hand. "I'm Turlough."

"Pleasure. Anything else I need to know?"

"Duly noted," he replied with amusement. "But where do I go from here?"

He forced down a sigh. "So, there's nothing beyond this room, then?"

"What? No, there's a whole colony ship."

"So, where does one normally go from here?" he asked, hoping she would see his question as something practical, not a mission statement.
