00.001 [VOICE] - Meet the Turtle

Jan 08, 2010 22:39

[there's a harsh sound, like a thumb being dragged over a mouthpiece, and then a pause before there are sounds of the communicator being shuffled around.]

Oops. Uh, well, hello then. This is...interesting. I guess. I can't really say I've ever been given a communication's device when taken captive before, though I suppose that being unable to pick ( Read more... )

Don-

[Oh thank God, he can stop going completely out of his mind and only go halfway out of his mind now.

...But if Donatello's here, that means the stone generals will go after the others. Mike and Splinter are in danger. And...Raphael.]

Don. Where are you?

L-Leo?

7281. Deck 6, I think. You're here, too?

Stay put. I'm coming for you.

[85% now!] [Well, he wasn't going to let the whole ship know where he was] tic_tech_turtle January 9 2010, 07:51:19 UTC
Yeah.

[do-ti-do-ti-do. Just hanging around inside his room. Waiting. And not pacing tight little circles, thank you]

You're on the M.S. Elegante. A cruise ship that doesn't play by the rules of reality. It's unsettling, I know, but at least you're taking this a bit more intelligently than some of the people who show up here.

Name's Gideon, by the way.

...Doesn't play by the rules of reality, how? If you don't mind my asking.

[to give his name or not to give his name. er.]

Gideon. I'm Donatello.

Well, for starters... people show up here from all sorts of different worlds. We've got everything from humans to aliens to walking robots.

On another subject, the Captain can make things just... happen right at his will. Made it start snowing inside the decks fairly recently. Want me to keep going?

Nice to meet you, Donatello.

Other worlds, aliens, giant robots, and snowing inside the decks.

No, I think I get it. Thank you. I knew that vortex was going to have consequences...

Nice to meet you as well.

[Gideon beat her to the punch...]

It is a bit of an unorthodox captivity situation, although I can assure you that you will find those aboard who do not consider themselves to be hostages. I cannot deny that it is an odd predicament. I hope it will not be too terribly taxing on you.

[oh, great. Stockholm Syndrome.]

Excuse me, and thank you for your reply, but would you mind explaining why the people here don't consider themselves hostages?

Oh...! Well... Some people came from terrible places and to them, this ship is more like a safe haven. Not everyone is like that, but there are some who are. It likely sounds a bit confusing, but all new arrivals suffer from that.

[She pauses for a moment.]

Forgive me for my hasty nature. My name is Zelda.

[Voice] tic_tech_turtle January 9 2010, 07:45:05 UTC
Nothing to forgive. I'm Donatello.

And I...suppose that does make sense. Thank you.

[and a "safe haven" could mean so many things. Not all of them good.]

You're still in lock down, friend.

Our cell is just larger than you think.

[Voice] tic_tech_turtle January 9 2010, 07:40:41 UTC
Yes...we're on a boat, aren't we? How far from land?

[Voice] headfullapuddin January 9 2010, 08:08:23 UTC
There's a few here, they say they've been riding the waves On The Elegante for over a year.

No telling when we're docking!

Get comfortable--there's quite the wait ahead of you, Donny.

[Voice] tic_tech_turtle January 9 2010, 08:13:03 UTC
Over a year? That far without docking, you mean?

[that's more disconcerting than the news about snow indoors]

Uh, yeah, thanks.

This happens often?

Reply

[Voice] tic_tech_turtle January 9 2010, 07:52:31 UTC
Well, no, not often. But enough times that it had become fairly routine.

And you are?

[Voice] heavyweaponsbot January 9 2010, 07:55:09 UTC
... Do I want to know?

Ironhide.

Reply

[Voice] tic_tech_turtle January 9 2010, 07:59:05 UTC
Probably not. And no offense, but I likely wouldn't tell you much anyway, even if you did.

Ironhide. [well, that's a strange name] I'm Donatello. Pleased to meet you?
