Meat 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.]

"Okay, you used to be here before. You were - how old are you now? Whatever you are, you sure as hell look older now, so when you were here before you were younger. Stacy's fun like that. She likes to pull people from different times and mess with their heads."
Marco took a deep breath. Okay, time to just...start talking. "It's good to see you too, man. But I gotta tell you something. It's about Tom." He paused eying Jake and considering. He wasn't sure if he wanted to tell Jake about Rachel if he hadn't seen her die yet. But he did look older than Marco ever remembered seeing him. "...And Rachel."
no subject
"And... I know. They're alive and on the ship."
Which was a relief. It also brought a sickening sense of dread and anticipation. How was he supposed to confront the two people he wished he could bring back from the dead?
no subject
"Wait, you do? How? Did you already talk to Ax?" Marco asked, blinking. He'd been all geared up to try and explain things to Jake and now it turned out that someone else already had. "Did he tell you that Tom's free now?"
no subject
But at least Tom was free.
"...yeah, I heard that."
He tried not to let on how much that news was affecting him. It was hard, but he managed with a slightly forced smile.
"So, what's the deal with this place, anyway? Aside from the usual save the world kinda stuff."
no subject
He rubbed his nose, and sighed. There was a hell of a lot to tell. "Well, apparently we're saying the multiverse instead of just the world this time, for one. The ship's alive and calls herself Stacy, and she was made by these guys called the Daligig. Supposedly, she saved us when our worlds were destroyed by the Ohm, which conveniently means no one has anywhere else to go to. And since Stacy doesn't seem to discriminate at all about who she picks up, we've have a few nutjobs here with us as well. Not to mention guys like Iniss. There's a Council who act as a government, but you sure as hell can't trust them either. They voted to keep Tom infested rather than making Iniss get the hell out, because according to them as someone gets 'decides' to stay enslaved, it's okay! Never mind the fact that Tom's a mess and he was basically coerced into it."
no subject
"Well, that's convenient for them, considering they weren't the ones fighting the war against those slugs..." Jake gritted his teeth and then forced himself to calm down.
"...it's alright. I'm just..."
Glad? Happy? Excited? Worried? Nervous?
"...glad to hear that TOm's finally free. Here and now, anyway."
He'd let the past stay the past, or at least try to. He shook his head.
"I think I'm going to have to talk with this council, just to make sure they're on the same page regarding us."
no subject
Marco? Bitter? No.
"Good luck with that. They'll probably declare that because you're brother was a Controller you just hate Yeerks so much that you couldn't possibly think at all rationally about them," he said, sarcastic.
no subject
Him.
"...me. Us. I don't want us getting killed because someone on their stupid Council thought we'd be useful."
no subject
He folded his arms, thinking. He did want to tell Jake about Kang and Intelligence, but not here. Hell, just talking about possible taking on the Council was more than Marco wanted to do in public like this. And if knowledge of Intelligence got out there, it wasn't just Kang that could go down - Rachel and Ax could go down with him. "Look, there's more to tell you, but not here. This isn't exactly secure."
no subject
He brushed a hand through his hair with a sigh. "Yeah. You're right. Just fill me in later, alright? I want to know what we're dealing with. I just... I'm tired of being jerked around all the time. And it's good to see you again."
He paused.
"...even if you are a bit shorter than I remember."

no subject
This he could deal with. It was almost like being back home again. Except for the living ship and the really weird statue in the corner.

Not to mention he and Rachel tended to butt heads even more than usual when Jake wasn't there.
"Ah, yes. The good old days, when we lived in a valley surrounded by walking salad shooters instead."
