Oh, definitely still a thousand burning ones left.
[smiles grimly]
I'm no expert, but kind of a weird effect for all of us to theoretically get from this "stasis" thing as they suggested, huh?

Well, I don't know if they promised me anything, exactly. Considering they didn't even think they could get a supply of river beans, expecting anything more than that seems silly...
[this is CLEARLY important but no anyway]
The important takeaway for me was that they said we'd be returned to the same point in time that we last remember. If that's the truth, then at least we don't have to worry about being missing, so here's hoping. [not sure if that's something lucien cares about, though.] They also talked about payment—apparently the default is currency, but alternate compensation could be discussed at the end of the contract.

[ gasp the river beans .............. username name drop. ]
They said as much. Must mean we are in the Astral Plane or some equivalent, if time is not a concern.
[ oh, he definitely cares! he definitely cares. ]
Yes, they mentioned the alternate compensation to me as well. Interesting how the story changes so quickly.

Astral Plane?
[you fantasy man "isn't charles from a jrpg fantasy" well yes but]
Seems that way. I don't know how much the senior crew knows compared to the upper management, but we'll find out. Though so far, all that's on the schedule for the next week is, uh, team bonding and then arriving at our first destination, Strihiria. Ever heard of it?

[ Lucien is pacing the hallways, pointlessly, and in the process is spreading a really fun variety of emotions. Paranoia, like an animal pacing the bars of its cage, and an exhaustion so profound the freakin' walls are moving. Maybe someone should actually try sleeping in ... his room ... ? It's pretty clear he did not do that, based on the rumpled clothes. ]
[in contrast, charles's vibes are basically just. calm. shifting into confusion and concern when he sees lucien being like this.]
... You good?
... You good?
[takes out a bean from the bean void. gibe hand to deposit it in.]
[yo. my energy to write a real starter dies with every passing moment.]
So... how much did you not like the last nine hours?
So... how much did you not like the last nine hours?
... Well. Technically, you're not wrong, I guess.
This is a lot more philosophical of a discussion than I was expecting tonight. [...] So, who would you say you are?
Didn't expect people to get philosophical after all of that? Of course they will. It's what these moments are best for.
[ he shrugs a shoulder. ]
A reasonable enough person who thinks that the man ripping people apart and leaving them splayed about the ship should be found and eliminated?

To be honest, I think most people are too tired to have deep thoughts right now, so I'm kind of impressed.
[he shrugs, lightly.]
Not interested in hearing what he has to say?
