* Maestro scans the crowd
[Snipe] So, I want you, and Paladin, to run down to C Deck and begin to shift through all the people for me and then head up to the bridge for a conference.  Drake wants to tell us how this ship was meant to be built.
[Gravedigger] What about sending them to the medical bay a couple dozen at a time for a quarentine scan, and while they're doing that, have the meds take DNA smaples and run those through?
[Gravedigger] ...Great, yeah, I'll get RIGHT one that...

[Spirit] Fun...

[Diamondback] [Wha...] *ahem* Yeah, ok, right on it. *British accent shows through in his voice*

[Diamondback] D, dammit!
* Garland mutters to himself about DeathStar, that being the most troubling
[Ripple] NRP: whatd i miss?
[Paladin] Do we just wander around asking people?  Why don't we just wait for a crime to be committed before looking for criminals?
[Gravedigger] Because the smartest criminals aren't going to pull anything in a place like this.
[Maestro] NRP: Nothing Much, Get somone else to explain
[Snipe] Elevator: Goes.
[Diamondback] [Stupid elevator...]
[Ripple] NRP: OH THAT HELPS *so sarcastic, you could cut it with a spork*
[Snipe] ....*walks over to Maestro* How are the engine room hyper drives?
[Paladin] So there shouldn't be any trouble, making it idiotic to go looking for troublemakers who won't make any trouble.
[Gravedigger] NRP: On ship, Snipe assigning us to go to different floors to sift through people to find criminals

* Snipe the girl pockets Pal's things
[Spirit] Hopefully...
* Blackjack heads for the bridge (NRP: Blackjack was supposed to, I hope)
[Gravedigger] C'mon, buck up, it was a joke.

[Gravedigger] One annoyance down.

[Spirit] NRP: *Maki continues her assult on Snipe with Macaroons, having run out of actual ammunition*
[Ripple] So, Snipe, any luck tracking down Slash?
[Snipe] Could you PLEASE talk to the reploid and the tightass standing by the elevator and tell them to come to the bridge?  Thank you.
[Paladin] Hey . . . that hole in my armor is right near . . .
[Snipe] ...Uh, no, been to busy running for my life.
[Ripple] NRP: Mmmm Macaroons...
[Diamondback] Come on, Andrea...
[Paladin] Shit, she did take some of my gil.  Damn her.
[Gravedigger] Oh c'mon, you're alive, I'm...functioning, the Earth can be rebuilt, Good always wins, blah blah blah.

[Ripple] NRP: Thought he was paralized from the waist down...
[Gravedigger] ...Were we supposed to be doing?
* Paladin moves towards the elevator
[Gravedigger] ..something?
[Blackjack] Yeah... I'm cyborg, sort of. An experimental cybernetic replacement for the damaged portion of my spinal cord.
* Gravedigger shrugs and gets on too
[Paladin] Going to the bridge to let ourselves be lectured by wonder kid.
[Snipe] Drake: .... they're YOUR men...
* Ripple crosses arms
[Ripple] Dont ask me, I dont know where they go after the orders are given out.
[Gravedigger] Wonder kid, heh, that's funny.
* Blackjack stands, almost reverting, but keeping himself from doing it
* Snipe glares at a view screen of GD and Pal talking
[Gravedigger] I always used to call ihm "Ripe".
[Diamondback] NRP: That's the bad thing about playing multiple characters... That was DB.
* ShellX looks up from his access port wondering what;s going on
[Gravedigger] Man, let me tell you, never go into the bathroom after him.

* Snipe cringes
[Ripple] [.....  Well, its too big to hit too much]

[Paladin] Essentially, yea.
[Gravedigger] NRP: Yeah, your pants. Baa-dump!
[Ripple] NRP: *smacks Grave, and gouges out his other eye*
[Snipe] Drake: Anyway...this ship wasn't designed for just 500,000 people to run.  Uh, anyone ever watch 20th century space adventures?
[Snipe] ....Uh...space adventures...uh...?
* Diamondback snickers, and Blackjack laughs
[Paladin] . . . no, why the hell would we?
[Ripple] ... Not that i... can recall...
*** Seraphna^Arunsun (dobahold@209-130-200-232.nas-2.MON.frontiernet.net) has joined #TAW
[Ariel] A bit before my time.
[Diamondback] [Dad over there's a fanatic of old movies.]
*** Seraphna^Arunsun is now known as Airier
* Garland walks up solmnly to the group, just to see what's happening
[Snipe] Drake: *Brightens* You ever seen "Star Trek" or "Babylon 5"?
[Gravedigger] Do remakes count? Even if they suck really bad?
[Blackjack] Yeah.
[Airier] (Session?)
[Blackjack] Yipe. I see your point.
[Ariel] NRP: Yep
[Gravedigger] NRP: Bingo
[Ripple] NRP: of course.
[Paladin] NRP: Yes.
[Blackjack] NRP: Yeah.
[Ariel] NRP: () = telepathy remember
[Snipe] Drake: Then you'll be able to translate this.  This ship was designed to have people living on here...to have them run businesses, etc. etc.
[Airier] NRP: Where are we?
[Paladin] An independant space station/vessel, then
[Gravedigger] ...I can finally be a traveling undertaker! YES!
[Blackjack] Yeah, kind of like a moving city.
[Snipe] Drake: Basically, this ship is like 1 big city...we don't have many weapons...we have levels and levels of just blank space...for store
[Snipe] ...no weapons, charmed...
* Airier walks in
[Snipe] Drake: SOME, Snipe
[Ripple] Probably have to do a bit of reconstruction to ad a bity
[Snipe] ...no decent weapons, charmed...
[Spirit] Sounds like Macross...
[Gravedigger] NRP: Be explained to what we're gonna do on the ship
[Snipe] Drake: Macross?
[Paladin] Ok, so why do we need to know all this now?
[Spirit] 20th century anime.  One of the classics, I'm surprised you haven't seen it
[Snipe] ...so, basically, I can open a friggin' cookie shop on here?
* Gravedigger takes out a cigar and lights it.
[Ripple] NRP: *Goes to translate Plasma cannon to german*
[Ripple] Thats about right..
[Diamondback] *all but Snipe and Drake* [Hrm, pretty obvious Snipe doesn't like this idea.]
* ShellX is only half paying attention to Drake, instead he is looking at the schematics.
* ShellX looks up
* Airier sits in a chair in the shadows of the room, looking remarkably chisled
[Snipe] Drake: Uh, yeah...that's it....We only need a crew of about 500 people to run what you need...etc. etc.  The small group you got here could be the fighting force, maybe Foreigner Inc. can direct us to getting some crews...I checked and hardly any of the 100,000 people we saved have the skills.
[ShellX] What type of experimental facilities does it have?
[Snipe] Drake: None built...just MedBay.
[Snipe] Which is where X2 is....I bet.
[Gravedigger] ...There goes finding any mass murders in the crowd.
[Diamondback] [Great, so we're the only fighters on here.]
[Ripple] No engineering bays at ALL?
* Diamondback repeats himself aloud for Snipe's benefit
[Snipe] Drake: Just the main engineering bay.
* Gravedigger takes a puff of the cigar and coughs badly
[Snipe] Drake: Basically...
[Gravedigger] *hack*...smooth....*gag*
[Snipe] Well, guys...what should we do with the 100,000 people on board this ship....?
[Airier] We need allies then...
[Paladin] Civilian allies?  Ha.
[Airier] Help them survive..
[Blackjack] Treat them as citizens, mainly...
[Ripple] They are whats left of the human race...
[Snipe] ..Great, next announcement: Please see Blackjack to open a Bakery..
* ShellX goes back to looking at the schematics, trying to think of where he wants to get a science lab placed
* Ariel laughs
[Blackjack] Ha. If anything, I'll open a casino.
[Airier] Allies as in Alien Allies Snipe...
[Gravedigger] Put on the biggest Broadway musical in history....What? It was just an idea!
[Garland] ......*jusrt listens*
* Ripple listens
[Snipe] ........Well, you guys are pretty chipper for someone whose homeplanet is toast..
[Airier] AHAHAHA!
[Airier] *Home planet..
* Snipe glances at Airier
[Diamondback] *all but Airier* [Yep, he's insane.]
* Gravedigger pats Snipe on the back, then smacks his head
[ShellX] Hey, I'm trying to forget that for now, Snipe!
[Spirit] NRP: So we're doing the macross thing and I just happened to have a character that could be a professional singer... stupid coincidence
* Airier hears the remark..
[Snipe] Drake: *hands DB the money he bet on it*
[Airier] Oh.. I'm insane
[Snipe] NRP: WHAT MACROSS?!
* ShellX goes back to staring at the schematics
[Diamondback] NRP: And just how do you hear it?
[Airier] About as much as the last General Death Star...
[ShellX] NRP: Robotech
[Paladin] NRP: Robotech
* Diamondback pockets it with a snicker
[Snipe] NRP: Never seen it
* Garland looks at Airier
[Spirit] NRP: Great anime, you should pick it up.
* Snipe glances at Airier
[Snipe] General Death Star was insaNe?
* Paladin glances at Airier
[Ripple] NRP: it rocks.  Watch Sharon A.P.P.L.E.
[Airier] NRP: I'm a good listener
* Gravedigger pulls Snipe to the side
[Diamondback] NRP: It's not aloud. Telepathy.
[Airier] Enough that Spade was able to pin him...
[Paladin] . . . will you shut up?
[Spirit] NRP: Nah, you'd need to see the original series to get the connection
[Gravedigger] Mind if I give you some advice?
* Garland looks at Airier and Snipe with undying anger
[Airier] NRP: Whatever, I picked up the wavelength
[Diamondback] NRP: Ok, GM, step in.
[Snipe] NRP: Airier cannot hear it.. There
[Garland] .......He.....was.....a.....great......man.......
[Airier] NRP: Ok...
[Snipe] Yes, Grave.
[Ripple] Death Star.. 
[Airier] Was... it's a big word...
[Ripple] I wouldnt know anything about it.
[Blackjack] Whoa, Garland, calm down, there... We all know DS was a great Reploid...
[Paladin] . . .
* Ariel glares at Airier
[Paladin] Can we get back to the ship?
[Snipe] Drake: Who just got banished from Earth..*glances at Paladin*
* ShellX finishes looking at the schematics and downloads them into his memory
* Garland clenches his teeth
[Gravedigger] Okay, as leader man, it's generally YOUR responsibility to NOT bum out the team, capisce?
[Ripple] NRP: Mmm catfish..
[Snipe] ...But a friggin' BAKERY..
[Airier] Reploid is another... At least he was normal...
[Gravedigger] You keep morale UP, not Down, HAPPY, not sad, BOUNY, not flat, got the pic?
* Maestro is back from - Auto-away (idle 30 min) - Gone 3secs - [i²]
* Airier seems almost jealous of DS
[Snipe] ...Alright *leaps to his feet and claps hands* WHO WANTS TO START A BAKERY!
[Paladin] . . . Christ
* Gravedigger smacks his forehead
[Ripple] Snipe, just shut up, and lets get down to business...
[Snipe] Thank you  *sits down*
* Gravedigger yanks Snipe back down
[Airier] Yes snipe...
[Snipe] ACK1
* Blackjack shakes his head
[Garland] .....
[Gravedigger] First chance I get, BAM! You're going out that porthole.
[Snipe] Drake: ....I just told you what this ship was designed for; life, not war...it's up to you now.
[Snipe] Awww, thanks mute.
[Snipe] ...Alright, suggestions anyone?
[Blackjack] ...*tries to come up with something* Float around in space?
[Airier] Now what do we do... According to the history files, Foriegner Inc. would shoot us on sight, with so many Carter's around...
[Paladin] . . . live like hunted prey until we die wanderers alone in space?
[Snipe] ....Foreigner Inc. would?  Man were you briefed wrong.
[Airier] Not to mention Garland, and Ariel..
[Gravedigger] We educated the crew in minimal combat conditions for any event of a boarding crisis.
[Snipe] ..I meant about the ship....you IDIOTS
[Paladin] Armor and equip it
* Ripple sighs
[Snipe] ....Good idea, Grave...lets give basic training to 12 year olds..
[Ripple] The weapons need a complete overhaul..
[Airier] Find a pit stop somewhere...
[Gravedigger] Then we live among them, never once revealing that we're really the fighting force of the ship
[Diamondback] Actually, Snipe, it's a good idea.
* Garland looks ay Airier again.
[Snipe] Computer: Exiting hyperspace in 10 minutes.
[Snipe] I know it is, Db...
[Airier] Why not Snipe?
[Diamondback] I started learning to fight at 11, so it isn't impossible.
[Airier] I was...
[Diamondback] [Damn, I hate talking aloud...]
* Gravedigger whacks Snipe
[Airier] 7 when i was trained
* Spirit remembers the day she was kicked out of school and looks at the ground
[Garland] NRP: BRB
[Ripple] ....
[Snipe] .....*feels a flashback coming on so he whacks the dashboard* Alright, more suggestions
* ShellX moves to the science station and sits down in front of the sensor controls
[Gravedigger] Boy, don't MAKE me turn this ship around....
* Snipe grabs grave's hand
[Ripple] [You were trained... I had to learn on my own.]
* Maestro falls asleep somwhere
[Snipe] Don't EVER do that again...*throws it off*
* Airier sits at the engineering station
[Diamondback] *all but GD* [Anyone feel like ripping Grave's vocal cords out?]
* Gravedigger kicks Snipe in the shin
* Snipe blocks
[Snipe] ...Grave, you're pissing me off..
[Ripple] NRP: *holds up hand, and the voice card*
* Airier nodds
* Blackjack looks at DB, snickers, and nods
* Paladin begins to laugh
* Ripple snickers
[Spirit] *To Vespers* [I liked him better when he couldn't talk]
* Airier calls engineering
* Paladin laughs hysterically
[Gravedigger] As I once was told, "It's better to be pissed off then pissed ON."
[Airier] COMM] How many people we got down theree?
* Gravedigger glares at Pal
[Diamondback] *likewise (NRP: I'm counting BJ as a Vesper, also.)* [No kidding.]
[Paladin] . . . this . . . this is the "best of the best"?  . . . Ha ha ha
* Ariel rolls her eyes
HA HA HA
