[Comm clicking on and the sound of fumbling hands. This is closely followed by a slightly disgruntled, muttered voice.]

What the hell is this? The damn Communicator is a relic. Am I going back in time or what?

[Realization that yes, the comm is on and yes, what he’s saying is being heard by whoever might be out there.]

Uh, hello! This is Cliff Fittir

Yep, it's on fire.

[tattoofists]

Uh.

Shouldn't we be running to put it out or something?

[chopshopgoddess]

Nah. It won't hurt anything. Been there for a year.

[tattoofists]

[Give him a moment to pause, blink, get a little closer and hold his hand out to it to see if it's actually hot or just decorative.]

Ach. What is it then? Decoration?

[missmimmi]

Ja, deck 11 is always on fire. It does not spread, however.

And the, um, Captain is hard to contact, unfortunately. The most you usually get to speak to is the crew.

[tattoofists]

So I heard. Still weird in my opinion, but kinda cool as well.

The Captain's out of range? Damn! Alright, who's on crew and how can I reach them?

[missmimmi]

Unfortunately, I am only familiar with the First Mate. But I believe if you simply ask for one of the crew, they may respond.

[tattoofists]

Sounds pretty easy then. You reckon they would of got the hint from this post?

[He got half of his message out before being distracted by something shiny fire. That's got to count for something.]

[rdmcatpaw]

Don't burn yourself!

[...Real obvious there Cat.]

Um, the deck underneath you has a lot of luggage that you can pick from incase you need more clothing.

[tattoofists]

I don't plan on it!

[There's a casual glance around to see if anyone's watching. Cliff may or my not of had a hand extended to the fire. Just testing the heat. Really.]

Whoa really? That'll be handy.

[Pause.]

Wait, did you say luggage? Doesn't that belong to people?

[rdmcatpaw]

That's good.

Well, the crew said that it'd be okay to take anything we want from it.

[tattoofists]

Did they now?

Huh. It still seems a little strange though. Kinda like theft.
