ARRIVAL

mmhmm

While she was totally the perfect contestant for this kind of thing. It was poorly timed. She'd been traveling to Montana with Cat. Montana, of all places. It's been over twelves years since she'd been home. Was this fates cruel way of telling her that this was a bad fucking idea? Or maybe it was a great idea and someone was just fucking with her. What was the phrasing for that??? Facing your fears? Maybe. Well, she didn't have to do that anymore... so why worry about it?

Except that she did worry... This was what relieve and annoyance felt like.

Freya pursed her lips together and a loud clear whistle echoed through the ships interior. "I can whistle! That's a plus." She had no issues with talking to herself. In part because no one else would listen, also because she rather liked the sound of her own voice.

"Hello~ other contestants of fate or the beginning of Dead Space 4. Time to say hi."

That was kind of like a welcome??? Maybe Freya should say hi like a normal person. Oh well, too late now.

Hello Hello?

Can you hear me... Sorry I got a song stuck in my head. Sadly, it wasn't a very good song. !ANYWAY! I wanted to do a shout out, also the basic, hello, how do you do sort of deal. I'm Freya. Not that interesting except that my name is pretty cool. It probably sounds cooler when you aren't reading it via texting but you know, shit happens.

Anyway, anyone who has more of a 411, that'd be awesome. Specifically, I'm hoping a few people I know aren't here. AKA. I am NOT saying their names or even risk typing them but there are definitely people in this universe, my universe, every universe who I want to avoid.

So poke me. Like, throwing sheep on Facebook style. If you're up for that kind of conversation.

Really, the sum up is that I'm new. I need assistance.
Thanks
Awesome

OH! QUESTION! This is actually pretty important for me. I know we do the E.T. planet thing but is there a good place to run on these ships? I am asking for a friend. This is important.

Thanks again.
Later~

[ooc: Hello! Freya is a werewolf and I'm happy to have people meet her as a wolf as well. Let me know what you want cuz I need samples! She's sassy and small, coming about 5' tall. She has a lot of information on her journal too if you're interested it's there! Otherwise hit me up!!!]

That's a lot of jargon.

[Which sucks. These things usually translate better than this.]

There's a mountain on the Iskaulit.
And yeah. No shit. A mountain.

text; network

[luckyescape]

I'm going to assume that Iskaulit is one of the ships in the fleet at which I'm going to say BullSHIT.

HOW IS THERE A MOUNTAIN!?

WHAT THE HELL?

Tell me more.

text; network

[theirondragon]

Don't know.

Uh. It's there? It's weird, right? Everything here's artificial. The plants are artificial. Then there's that thing. In the middle of space.

text; network

[luckyescape]

Do they smell artificial? I realize you might not be able to answer that question but it's totally worth asking.

Also. WOW!

text; network

[theirondragon]

They smell like plastic if that's what you mean.

Uh. Yeah. Wow's one way of putting it.

text; network

[luckyescape]

Ewwww, but I'm in space. I guess I'll deal.

So what's your thing. Sides pointing out mountains which is pretty cool.

text; network

[theirondragon]

I do a lot of things. Used to do a lot of other things.

I'm the Iron Bull. We can start there.

text; network

[luckyescape]

That is super vague.

Are you actually a bull made of Iron? Like a robot? That'd be really cool.
If I shorten your name do you prefer Iron or Bull?

text; network

[theirondragon]

Hit about as hard as one, but nah. That'd be kind of weird, right?

Why does everybody ask that? "Iron" doesn't even sound right. Bull's fine, but the Bull is better. I like the article at the front.

text; network

[luckyescape]

A little weird but I think that weird is good.

the Bull sounds too much like a title. I'd rather call you by a name or make up a nickname that suits you better. Not that I don't imagine you looking like a Bull right now.

text; network

[theirondragon]

Some weird's good, sure.

video; Because you know what?

[ And that smiling face is attached for a very large, gray-skinned man with horns with bases large enough to appear very large, though the camera doesn't have a view radius wide enough to encompass them. ]

It is a nickname and a title. Makes it sound like I'm just some...weapon of destruction. That really does it for me.

Voice

[brothersboots]

Hey, Iron Moron and the Jabbering queen, the plants and the mountain are real. They're mine. I should know. Just because they are on a big metal box in space doesn't make them any less.

[Edna is beyond annoyed right now.]

The gardens are filled with plants from people's homes that they got as "gifts" from the Atroma. Plus I'm growing something called Elfroot for Featherhead, if she ever comes back. I think her name is Hawke.

Video; network

[luckyescape]

[A small blonde with long messy hair appears on the screen as the text turns to video. Her features are cute and her manner looks fairly relaxed for someone who's just randomly appeared on a space ship.]

Oh we're Skyping now. Cool. I can roll with that.

[OH WOW, he really does look like a Bull. Neat.]

That's what does it for you? Sounds like it'd be an awkward bedroom experience. What if I called you Steve? OR The Steve.

[luckyescape]

Yup! A very close friend.
A close four legged friend.

What spots on Iskaulit?

Re: text

[tempredmental]

a snow park where a lot of ppl bring their pets that r more cold weather animals

a mini mountain

obstacle course tho im not sure how a pet would handle it

those are the main areas

but theres also just running through the corridors

ppl do that too

text

[luckyescape]

THAT SOUNDS AWESOME

I am so there!

My pet is awesome and can handle anything. I can also let her go off with out me and I happen to know that she loves the snow.

Running through corridors seems like fun too. Though kinda rough on your feet don't you think?

Re: text

[tempredmental]

not if u have the rt shoes for it

shiro does it all the time with his dog

text

[luckyescape]

I was thinking how it'd feel if you were barefoot. Like a dog.

Obviously.
