Meet and Greet

The rest of the crew assembled on the Observation Deck to meet the latest editions to their numbers.

Several people are set up near the doors to provide the new people with omnicomms and comm rings. They are also told they must read information about their current situation and a survival guide with their new omnicomm. New crewmates might see a tall dragonish guy with wings (but don't call him that), a large afro attached to a smaller girl, and talking ponies 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. But thankfully this time, there's a system that was set up to aid the new crew members with a few more experienced ones.

[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. Big brother/sister, there will be a thread for you as well!]

He reflected on what she said. He knew she was right; they couldn't give up hope that they would be fine, that some day they'd all be reunited. And he expressed this most complex thought in his customary way.

He smiled, and said "Eeeyup."
elementofloyalty: (well i am best pony after all)

And that was so homelike and reassuring, she couldn't help but feel entirely confident herself. Spreading her wings, she lifted back up into the air, the same way another pony might have just taken a step sideways to reposition herself.

"And I have good news, too! There's a place here where AJ's growing apple trees!"
eeeyup: (Yay!)

[personal profile] eeeyup 2012-04-08 04:36 am (UTC)(link)
"Great!" That news seemed to raise his spirits. Farming apple trees was his thing. He was all over that. "Think she could use some help?" he asked.
elementofloyalty: (playful and smug)

[personal profile] elementofloyalty 2012-04-08 03:39 pm (UTC)(link)
"Of COURSE she could!" Rainbow leaned in with a sly, conspiratorial smile. "She might even admit it for a change."

Big Macintosh chuckled. He knew AJ could be a stubborn one, and so did her friends. So the thought of her actively asking for help was something a bit foreign to her, but all the same, he was looking forward to going back to work with her. "Eeeyup."
elementofloyalty: (that's a relief!)

[personal profile] elementofloyalty 2012-04-11 08:25 pm (UTC)(link)
Ah, sounds like home (or at least Sweet Apple Acres, which was still a pretty cool place). Rainbow almost sighed in relief and relaxation, though she caught herself before she could be quite that uncool.

"There's gonna be fighting, too," she warned him.
eeeyup: (Big red grump)

[personal profile] eeeyup 2012-04-11 08:30 pm (UTC)(link)
He frowned a bit. "Tell me about it," he asked her. He wanted to know what was going on. If his friends were in danger, he would do whatever he had to.
elementofloyalty: (hope no one saw that)

[personal profile] elementofloyalty 2012-04-12 02:03 pm (UTC)(link)
"Something else I don't know much about, but it's pretty dangerous, I hear. We even got Applejack a special suit of armor made for her!"

She looked left, then right, making sure no orange earth ponies were in sight, then leaned in. "Don't tell her I said this, but it looks pretty awesome."
eeeyup: (A-whu?)

[personal profile] eeeyup 2012-04-16 03:56 am (UTC)(link)
"Armor?" Now he was curious.
elementofloyalty: (a little sad and serious)

[personal profile] elementofloyalty 2012-04-16 03:49 pm (UTC)(link)
"Yeah. The stuff we're facing uses some pretty nasty weapons. You get hit with it, and game over!" She gestured with one hoof in a cutting motion. "So this way she's all protected and safer when she's out bucking bad guys."
eeeyup: (Big red grump)

[personal profile] eeeyup 2012-04-16 08:25 pm (UTC)(link)
He knew AJ was tough, but he still didn't like the idea that his sister was facing down something that could legitimately harm her, or worse. And that discomfort was evident on his face. He didn't say anything about it though.
elementofloyalty: (glare)

[personal profile] elementofloyalty 2012-04-17 01:12 pm (UTC)(link)
"Hey! Don't you go giving her that look when she's around," Rainbow said, poking him in the chest. "She's doing this for her friends, and all of Equestria, so you know exactly what she'll say if you start openly looking upset about it."
eeeyup: (Sister Scolding)

[personal profile] eeeyup 2012-04-17 01:42 pm (UTC)(link)
He had to admit, Dash had a point. He DID know what AJ would say if she saw him looking like that when she talked about joining the fight. He couldn't help being afraid for her safety when and if she had to go up against evil aliens.

And this time around, he found a better way to articulate that. "I know, and I won't. But... She's all I've got left, y'know?"
elementofloyalty: (i dare you to say that again)

[personal profile] elementofloyalty 2012-04-18 05:41 pm (UTC)(link)
"You got me! And Rarity, and Pinkie Pie. We may not be family, but we're as good as, right?" Hard to tell if she was indignant, hopeful, or just annoyed at him for worrying, because really it was all three. "You trust your sister to come back okay the same way she'd trust you!"

[personal profile] eeeyup 2012-04-23 01:10 am (UTC)(link)
He nodded and smiled. "Eeeyup," he said. Hope you didn't mind a hoof on your shoulder, Dash, because you were getting one. Extended member of the Apple family.
elementofloyalty: (what i really meant was)

[personal profile] elementofloyalty 2012-04-23 02:47 pm (UTC)(link)
Of course she didn't mind. Though that touching little moment lasted only a few moments before Rainbow had to get sick of the mushy stuff and snorted. "Now, the people on this ship are mostly humans, but there are some other ones that are even weirder. They're mostly good folks though. A couple of weirdos and a couple of bad eggs, so look out, but for the most part they're okay."
eeeyup: (The tickets are now cupcakes.)

[personal profile] eeeyup 2012-04-28 11:27 pm (UTC)(link)
Big Mac put his hoof down when he realized she had enough of the sappiness. He nodded in response. "I'll keep my eyes open," he told her.
