Fifth Report; Dated back to event-start

[iwitnessdamsel]

[Two seconds after the ship makes some VERY distressing sounds and shakes all over the freaking place, April dives for her comm. Her voice is...close to calm. Most of all, it's urgent.]

Okay, anyone else feel that?

I don't think that's normal.

[She's looking out her window.]

It looks just fine outside. What's going on?

[tic_tech_turtle]

You're okay?

[iwitnessdamsel]

[JUST BECAUSE I HAVE OVARIES--]

I'm fine, Don.

Admittedly a little worried, as this kinda screams precursor to weird things here, but I didn't slice anything open. I swear.

[tic_tech_turtle]

[doesn't realize he said anything that could be taken as sexist he was just concerned ;_;]

That's good. That was rather sudden...you haven't seen any signs of land or underwater formations out your window, have you?

[iwitnessdamsel]

No.

[She's checking again.]

No, just...water. Looks the same as it did yesterday...

Didn't it sound more like...wind to you? A very strong wind catching the side or...?

[Only it's not windy at all out here.]

[tic_tech_turtle]

I don't know.

[Don goes quiet for a moment]

It might have been. It could also have been a particularly high wave, some sort of unformed whirlpool, the engines...

...If this ship even has engines.

[iwitnessdamsel]

That's a good question.

...Zeke told me things spring up pretty fast here. If this is gonna lead into something, we've got 24 hours max before it hits. It could be something...potentially dangerous.

He mentioned a pirate attack in the past. There's just no telling.

[Maybe you boys should get prepared?]

[tic_tech_turtle]

Pirates, right.

Are you going to be okay in your room or do you think you should come stay with us?

[in before before Leo orders you to do one thing or the other]

[iwitnessdamsel]

I may come over, yes.

[She's a proud woman, not a STUPID one.]

[tic_tech_turtle]

All right. I'll keep my door unlocked.
