New Game! MAGIC!
Sep. 28th, 2009 12:19 pmOnce again, our intrepid captain is leading an away team down to a planet for a first contact mission.
The planet, let's call it Circe, has several unexplained phenomena associated with it: people sometimes change. They might lose their gender, they might change species, they might swap brains, they might grow or shrink... no one knows why or how. The locals think it is their goddess blessing those she chooses to bless. Spock could probably figure it out, but I have a bad feeling about his chances down there.
So when Kirk, McCoy, Spock, Sulu, Giotto, Kyle, Ricky and Uhura go to the planet, their friends and respective lovers are all worried about them.
What do you think they're saying? And what do you think is actually happening down there?
Mod note: I want to remind people that every game has it's own continuity. The only canon we have at the start of a game is the series/movie (which we do love to mix and match) and what we build as we go. In other words, I know some of you are K/S shippers or Chekov/McCoy or WHATEVER. CARPE AFFINITAS! Seize the 'Ship!

We're going to go rescue Spock. Anyone who isn't fit for duty will beam back. But everyone else stays.
I'm tracking his position now. Meet at the attached coordinates in 5 to rendezvous, we'll move out from there.

Can you get a transporter lock on the surface right now? It'll be at least 2 to beam up.

Yes, I finally "made out" with doctor McCoy. Now I am wearing his body. I must say, not what I expected, but he is pleasantly well-endowed. I look forward to exploring this if I ever get out of here.
I'm sure the captain is forming a poorly-thought our rescue attempt as I speak. I hope casualties are kept to a minimum.
I miss my ears and hope the doctor does not alter them.

Aye, sir. I can just about get through. Co-ordinates? There're a lot of mammals around and I don't want to beam up two of those orange puppy things instead of you just by doing a biological search.
Oh God, please, Cap'n, tell me one of the transported crew outranks me.

Today, I realized that this will be the thirtieth time I have written in my personal log after being "captured by natives". FML.

Our meeting point is attached. We should all be there soon. Right now it's Giotto and Ricky to beam up, possibly Uhura and Kyle as well. The rest of us have to go rescue Spock.

With all do respect sir, I'm an engineer. I don't understand all these forms these women keep chucking at me. If I'm still in command in a few hours, you're going to find this ship dropping out of the sky.
Spock's captured? Who else is? Are you alright by the way, the genetic traces on our biological monitoring system is showing something... odd. Er. You and Sulu aren't lasses by any chance now are you? 'Cause if you don't think you are, my girl is having a real problem accepting you've anything in the warp chamber if you catch my meaning.

DetrimentAl it May - More than may Indisputably - be to our healTh, considering JoIning Me and tHe science officer won't help Uhura's situation any, we may need fuRther medical Requirements Yes?

You're gonna have to hold out a little longer. We're a little busy down here.
He is, and Bones seems to be as well. Sulu and I are both female, Giotto's the incredible shrinking man, Ricky's half fish, Spock and McCoy switched brains and Uhura is a kitten. Kyle is fine as far as we can tell so far.
We need a few security men down here for the rescue. See if Galloway can round up a team of 4 or 5 asap. Then beam up Giotto, Uhura, and Ricky.

Gallowayy: Captain says he needs a team of five of your best to a rescue mission. Send 'em to Transporter Room one, Chekov'll meet you there.
Chekov: Meet him there. Also, I hope what Gaila's been telling me is exaggeration. (Actually, I don't, meet me in the recreation room after this mess is over and I want a blow by blow account. If you pardon the parlance.)

Alright, Scotty's gonna beam Uhura, Ricky and Tony back to the ship and send down a security team soon. Once they get here we move out for the rescue. Understood?

Aye, aye sir. I'll try to keep up the facade of competency for the crew's morale.
That's... quite a mixed bunch there. At least the good doctor won't be able to blame my transporters on the genetic cock ups this time.
Chekov should be beaming them up right about now.

Galloway should be rounding up a few of the brave boys in red now, sir.
Just out of friendly, pally, matey curiosity, when you say "female"...?
