Happiness lies in the past. Ahead waits only empty SPACE!
WHO: Remaining Vanquish Crew [ Jon, Teddy, Raphael & Chikai ] & Network || Open to potential visitors
WHERE:The one place that hasn't been corrupted by capitalism. SPAAACE
WHAT: The Vanquish's pilot has vanished after its start and one Archivist begrudgingly addresses the network.
WHEN: Shortly after the ships leave Agra 10 + the happy space trip that follows
WARNINGS: Moody Archivist
NOTES: Basically a Free For All sort of things for everyone on the Vanquish. Our Pilot!Bucky is on hiatus, and Raphael will fill in for him so we don't crash into any planets! Bother Jon, make your own TLs or have sleepovers while we fly through space~
Missing Pilot
If it were up to him, Jon would have rather stayed back in Temba, hiding away in the basement of the library and not having to deal with anyone or anything. And yet, here he is. Standing quietly next to the miraculously empty pilot seat of the Vanquish, staring at it with a deep frown.
That's... Great. He briefly eyes the controls and the monitors and the many, many buttons. Thankfully, the ship's course has been set before the man that has gotten them off the ground has simply- How does that even work?!
With a brief sigh and a displeased mutter the Archivist taps a finger against the recorder in his hand, then turns back around to find the rest of the people he is stuck with in this dreadful contraption.
"So. We may not know where he is, but we do have a second pilot. That's... Acceptable for now, I suppose." Acceptable. Still, if Jon hasn't appeared very pleased before, his mood certainly has dropped even further.
Visiting Hours
It's a long trip they have ahead of them and of course people are bound to get bored. And it's notably worse than being stuck in the tunnels. They had more space there. Finding a quiet corner has been easier. And quiet corners are what Jon yearns for.
It's especially bad when people from the other ships decide to visit and he has to try and avoid more people than his own crew. And every darn time someone requests to enter the Vanquish, the Archivist flinches with a little grimace, dreading that the person about to board their ship is the one person he just can't bear facing right there and then.
So he tends to watch from a safe distance whenever someone shows up and in most cases simply retreats either into the crew quarters or the cockpit, depending on which happens to be empty at that moment.
The remaining crew may be happy to see some friendlier faces than his, however.

[ There's a brief flicker of static before Jon's voice cuts straight through it, crisp and somber. ]
Right.
[ He's putting in a lot of effort to hide how tense he really is - And just how much being in a space ship freaks him out. ]
Jonathan Sims reporting from the Vanquish. Our pilot, Bucky has vanished. We do have a replacement on board, however. We're fine.
[ He pauses and there is the faint sound of paper rustling. ]
To the ships' medical personnel:
I assume you have found and picked up the bag of medical supplies I left at the entrance of each ship. Be mindful with these supplies and refer to the included instructions. Any questions can be directed at me.
I am well aware that the medical data point did not magically teach you about human biology or basic first aid. These were originally set up to use the equipment in the hospital which has never been designed to be used on humans. So again: If you run into a problem you don't know how to deal with, I will try to assist as best as I can with what I know.
[[ ooc note: The bags Jon is referring to contain a couple of bandages, sterile cloths, two bottles of disinfectants - one for surfaces, the other to be used on wounds - and three bottles with medications in liquid form. None of the bottles are labelled directly, but have differently colored caps on them and can be identified with the mentioned instructions: One is a basic painkiller, one is a simple anaesthetic that can also be used to help people sleep, the last is basically the opposite. There is also a bag of tea made from herbs native to Agra 10 that supposedly helps with nausea and has an overall calming effect. ]]

"People that were brought to Agra 10 vanish all the time. We will find out if this disappearance is tied to the trouble the Agrii are in right now." That? Is another troubling thought. What if the people the Agrii are currently fighting are sending them back home? What if...
At least right now Jon wouldn't be too bothered by that outcome anymore.
no subject
"Hope we're not flying into a trap. Does this ship have weapons?" If he's going to be the one stuck flying this thing he supposes that's a good thing to look into.
no subject
The question for weapons is met with an unhappy noise. "I found nothing indicating weaponry, I'm afraid." Though he does hope the same regarding potential traps.
no subject
Either the Agrii had a whole lot of faith in their he-rows or they just had no one else. Neither possibility is very reassuring. Still, Raphael isn't about to lose hope. They've faced a lot worse with fewer numbers, although not without too many close calls.
He sure hopes there aren't going to be any of those.
Jon's report about weaponry makes the turtle groan. "Ugh. So we're being sent to who-knows-where to possibly fight who-knows-what, and we don't even have a way of defending ourselves if it turns into a space fight. I think I'm going to have to stare down that console and make sense of what all got stuffed in my head on how to pilot this thing. There's gotta at least be shields."
no subject
Space fights. That's something he hasn't considered. Do those actually happen...?
"...and we can ask the other ships if they are armed."
no subject
"Yeah, I'm thinking it'll be better to figure out what we can and can't do sooner than later," he says, nodding at Jon.
no subject
He turns to exist the cockpit to let the turtle familiarize himself with the controls "I will take another look around in the back - And inform you if I find something."
no subject
Raphael gets himself settled in, nodding back at Jon. "Awesome. Thanks. I'll do my best to make sure this thing is taking us to where we're supposed to go."
