Meat n' Greet

[cityship]

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. They are also told they must read information about their current situation and a survival guide with their new omnicom. New crew-mates might see a tall dragonish guy with wings (but don't call him that) and purple 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.]

Oh Cedric. I just want to hug him.

"Uhhh... security, I guess? Pretty much when stuff happens people put it on the omnicomms. You write "oh no guys people are attacking be prepared" or something and then everybody does. Or comm rings, if you actually wanna yell at people."

Me too. And Grif just needs a break :P

[theboywhodied]

"Got it," Cedric nodded, taking a mental note. "Though I don't think I like yelling, not really." He tapped the ring in thought.

"Is that what you are then? A security officer, commander?"

[whyarewehere]

Grif laughed at that. "Me? No way. I'm president of the Department of Being Awesome. That's way better than security any day."

[theboywhodied]

Cedric made a funny sort of face in disbelief. "Are you sure that's a real department? What exactly do you do?"

Dry humor---causes that other humor to go right past him.

[whyarewehere]

"...I was actually joking, but that should totally be a department now."

[theboywhodied]

Cedric had to fight to keep himself from laughing. "And you'll need a mission, right? Some statement of purpose? Is that how you found an organisation around here?

[whyarewehere]

"Uh, I guess so? People just kinda seem to adopt things and start doing them." He shrugged. "That's how we got the magic department, at least. I think."

[theboywhodied]

Magic department, huh? That was probably where he should go.

"Right, so you have an example. The magic department. Do they talk about magic? Practise with it?"

[whyarewehere]

"I don't really know, I'm not exactly magic. But I think they deal with all the mystical crap we run into and keep the powerful crazy guys from blowing stuff up? Best guess."

[theboywhodied]

That sounded appealing. Cedric made a note to talk to someone from there later on. "So your awesome department would be about preventing a...shortage of awesome? However you define that, I suppose."
