[The video begins by showing nothing but one of the many hallways on the ship. Once in a while an alien will plod on by in a leisurely pace but on the overall it's one of the rare, peaceful spots on the Thor.

AND THEEEEEN...

"OH MY STARS-!"

"AIEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!"

"GET OUT OF THE WAY GETOUTOFTHEWAY!"

You get a view of one alien diving out of the way as one ( Read more... )

You know, when I was telling stories about the forest being haunted, I didn't think there would be any actual ghosts. I guess that shows what I know.

Speaking of the planet, we'll probably be leaving it pretty soon and I haven't gone whitewater rafting yet. Polly, you still want to join me? What about you, Judith? Anyone else?

[The guide flickers on and off a few times, flashing with a blank screen, then an oddly tilted video shot, mostly of the floor, which seems to have a discarded pair of black pants on it. It then transmits a minute or two of background noise from a crowded area before it finally switches back to video. The child on the screen is somewhere between ( Read more... )

And now it really has been a year. Huh. Funny, it doesn't feel like I expected.

Maybe that party was a better idea than I thought.

I realized something recently - in a few days, I'll have been here a year. It's kind of funny - I never expected to be here this long. If you can rebuild a world, looks like it takes more time than I expected ( Read more... )

How did I miss this place before? This is great!

You guys have got to try this. Drop whatever you're doing and come over here.

[Nope, no video, and he's deliberately being vague. Have fun with that. :)]

You can't see what he's doing from the angle, but he looks more bored than anything else. Repede's sitting next to him, watching intently. Suddenly, he stands up and barks. Yuri stops and ( Read more... )

[The camera shows Yuri and Wolfram, sitting at a table and playing some kind of card game. They each have a pile of different sized candy in front of them and there's a smaller pile in the middle of the table. From the angle of the camera, you can't see either of their hands.

Yuri looks at his cards, then sets them down.]I'll raise you three ( Read more... )

[The video feed is jerky, as though the person holding the Guide is moving around. It's not immediately apparent whose Guide it is, all you can see of them is glimpses of a towel, bare skin, and occasional flashes of long dark hair (though the voice may be recognizable). But you can (most of the time) see Renge, wearing an excited expression and ( Read more... )

It's nice to see that everyone's back to normal. Nothing like a week-long demonstration of reasons why I shouldn't get another dog.

This might not be the best time to ask, but has anyone seen Flynn around lately? Sure, people get busy and all, even here, but I haven't heard from him in a couple of weeks.
