Security members! You're my next project. Well. Actually, not you, but I'm working on stuff for all of you!

I've noticed that you guys have to get around on foot like everyone else. That's not gonna be good if there's an emergency. Also, you guys don't have much to carry your tools and equipment with you. So here's what I'm going to do! I'll build you guys some police dogs! Robot police dogs! They'll have advanced scanning systems and stuff, and you can put things in them like your handcuffs and nightsticks and forensics equipment and... Yeah. I'll make them transform into various modes of transportation for you guys!

So, here's my question for you. Would your department like these? Would they be useful? What kind of vehicle would you like them to transform into (I'm thinking motorcycle, Segway, rocketboard, or jetpack). And are there any specific designs you'd like?

I've got about four preliminary ideas right now, but I'm willing to make more!

[Attached are Design 1, Design 2, Design 3, and Design 4.]

I could give them all a link to your main security computer as well (you do have one, right?) so you could keep track of their location and status. I'd really rather they be partnered with various members, but I can give them more AI than the robots running the train and Awesome World so that you can send them to patrol on their own.

Are there other ideas you'd like implemented? Do you want them? Please tell me!

This is Rock Light. I've finished the train tracks! And the train! You guys didn't give me a lot of destinations, though...

Anyway! I tried to figure out the main points that everyone went to, and I think it went pretty well! Since they cover such a wide area, I built three trains, too. At least two of them are on the tracks at all time, if the third isn't there it's probably in Grand Central Station getting looked over by my mets. It has a few major stops along the way, but I've decided it'd be better to install a patch on the Omnicomm network (included in this post, btw) that will allow everyone to call the train to a halt so that they can board. I've also included a bit of programming so that the same person can't call a halt to it a bunch of times in a row, to keep pranksters at bay.

The main stops are the Transport Tubes, Grand Central Station, Awesome World, the Outsiders (And you guys really need a better name) HQ, the Drunken Dragon, and the WITCH Bus. They'll automatically stop at these places for five minutes. It takes about an hour for each train to make a complete circuit. So that's either twenty to thirty minutes for a train to pass by each location, depending on whether there's two or three on the track. The track has safety sensors that will call a stop if there's a blockage, and I put cow catchers on the front just in case.

The trains work on a recursive inertia engine, so there's no kind of fuel needed. They're named, by the way, the Buddy Holly, the John Lennon, and the Warren Zevon.

I've got a few new projects in mind, Billy! But I'd also like to ask the crew what kind of improvements they'd like to see. I'm already considering building vehicles for Security, but we have some in the Vehicle Bay they can use to get around already... Hm. Anyway! The tracks have already been uploaded to your Omnicomms, and you can get the patch [here].

[And as soon as the map gets done and updated, I'll link it here.]

Welcome to the ship, to all of the new people I have been accidentally ignoring since the last release from the pod caverns. I discovered a new species of slug in the water at hydroponics and I've spent the last few weeks cultivating and breeding my own tank of them because I believe I'm starting to lose my mind.

In any case, my name is Dr. Luis Sera and I'm the Chief Science Officer and head of the Science Department on this lovely vessel. The Science Department is responsible for scientific research and development in all areas of practice-- physics, chemistry, biology, and anything else that doesn't fall under Engineering or Medical. We are called upon to assist other departments of the ship and crew members in commissioned scientific work. If you are experienced in any discipline of science and this sounds like a good time to you, you are welcome to inquire about joining the department.

Joining the department gives you free access to the Contagion Laboratory across the hall from Medbay, given that you agree with two simple stipulations:

1. All projects using department facilities and resources must receive ethical approval by the Chief Science Officer (myself.)
2. You will not work on anything that has more than a reasonable chance it is going to explode, infect, mutate, or otherwise horribly kill us all.

There is also absolutely no biological weaponry research allowed in department facilities. It gives me a headache and I have had way too many headaches for one lifetime.

Other than that, you're free to pursue your own avenues of work. Good deal, right?

This announcement is also to let you know that we are always accepting new projects. So if you are a crew member and you are in need of some type of specific research, please let me know and I will see the project handed off to a capable member of our staff. We are here to help you in any way we can.

In any case, if you are interested in joining or commissioning the department, please contact me here and let me know.

- Dr. L. Sera

I thought this should go without saying but apparently not.

At NO time will ANY live fire exercises EVER be permitted in the hangar by ANYONE, NO EXCEPTIONS UNLESS DIRECTLY AUTHORIZED.

We have Sensoriums for a reason. Use them. Any further incidents will be reported directly to Security. If you have an issue with this, take it up with the Council.

Sorry I couldn't make it to the meeting, everyone. I've been working on building those railroad tracks in the City, so you don't have to walk everywhere. The good news is that I should be done in another week or so!

Anyway, I'm Rock Light! I'll be pleased to meet all of you in the future, but before then I'd just like to give you some advice on places to go while you're here! First off, there's everyone's favorite spot, the Sensoriums. Basically, whatever you imagine in those rooms, it happens! Like magic! Though I think it's actually a sophisticated hologram system, but none of you really care about that. Stacy probably keeps some pre-set locations, too, so just ask for any random ol' thing and you'll probably get it. Plus, you can get stuff that tastes like real food there! Except if you take it out, it turns right back into slop. Eeeeew.

Speaking of food, there's two more places to eat on the ship. You've got the Mess Hall, where Stacy gives out your daily doses of slop! Whatever nutrients you need, she's got it in there, even if the taste is something to be desired. (Actually, I heard a rumor that someone can make it taste like fruit or spiced meat. Does anyone know about that?) Even the trays are edible! The second place is Hydroponics, which is really more like an overgrown petting zoo than a proper hydroponics lab. But you've got plants from tons of different worlds, and a bunch of animals! It's awesome! You can get there through the Hub, or by walking through Spacewalk. Spacewalk's like this glass tube. In space. You can just sit there and watch the stars, but that gets kind of boring after a little while.

The Drunken Dragon Tavern has a kitchen, I hear, but mainly it's there for fruit juices and ciders. Kang's a dragon guy, and he's pretty cool! Just don't cause a fuss in there.

Also: Awesome World, the amusement park, is still open! Go and check it out, there's something for everyone in there. A roller coaster, a shooting gallery, a funhouse, a zero gravity ball pit...

And if you just want to go for a swim, there's always the River! I understand that Billy and a few others are building a bath house, so that'll be something for the future, right?

...Well, I can't think of much else to say, so I'll be signing off now! Have a good day!

So. I'm going to be building a train track for the City. It's kind of big after all, and I know you guys are probably tired of walking all over the place.

So! I'm building a train! But I'm going to need your help. My robots and I can handle the actual construction, but where should I put the tracks? Where do you guys find yourselves going most of the time? I don't want to lay everything down just to find out that everyone goes to different parts of the City.
[identity profile] igotjetdog.livejournal.com
Hey, everyone! Rock Light here. With Mr. Cranston's permission, I've been building a bunch of robots and doing some construction and stuff and... Well. I'd just like to announce that my first ever project on the ship has been completed! I built you guys an amusement park!

Come on, everyone! Head to Awesome World! You'll have a blast, I promise!

...Just don't trip over the mets, okay?

Oh, and Mr. Cranston! I have another idea, if you've got a moment!
[identity profile] igotjetdog.livejournal.com
Billy! Hey, Billy!

You got some free time? I've got the plans for the project all drawn up and stuff, I spent all week on it! I can just show you in the Sensoriums!

Good morning, afternoon, evening, etc., crew. This is Councilor Kal-El.

We've had our first meeting recently and, despite some setbacks, we're ready to make a few announcements.

First of all, I would like to announce that Councilor Matthew Olsen will be the Chairperson for this gathering. I am more than certain that he's up to the challenge.

Second of all, we would like to announce that, as of now, both physical and psychological evaluations are now mandatory for all crew members present and future. However, we do want to reassure you that these will be purely confidential and only be known to the doctors doing the work.

And lastly, in light of recent events, we have decided to pardon the Yeerk known as Schmuz. We feel that his help during the incident with Shiva outweights the reasoning for his continuing imprisonment. As well, we are seeking ways of giving him and others the means to be mobile without the need of an actual host.

Thank you, all.

Hi everyone.

For the newcomers and those that haven't met me yet, my name is Billy Cranston. I head the Engineering Department...by myself, for the moment, and I will be your temporary administrator of this omnicom network until a replacement is found.

I've just conducted a search and confirmed that Allen Gentry, my former department co-head and the previous administrator, has been returned to biostasis. His belongings have been left to me for the time being. So in his honor, I'm going to now describe the Engineering department and review the omnicom network rules.

ExpandAll about the department )

As I said, I'll be your department head for the time being, but I expect we're either going to appoint another co-head or replace me altogether. Captain, Command, I await your decision on the matter.

On that note...engineers, have any of you thought about becoming a department head? It would help smooth the transition to have some willing people available.

Hello and welcome to all the new arrivals from podpop. My name is Dr. Luis Sera, and I'm the head of the Science Department here on the ship. The Science Department exists for all your scientific needs-- research, investigation, and even development of scientific-based solutions for all of your problems.

No, we have not come up with a way to send you home yet.

In any case, if you are scientifically inclined yourself and you are interested in joining the department, we are based in the Contagion Containment laboratory (down the hall from Medbay) and always accepting new members from all disciplines. Joining the department gives you free reign of the C.C. laboratory, as long as you agree to a few simple rules:

1. You may work on any projects you like as long as you agree to assist the department with assigned projects from the crew.
2. You may work on any projects you like as long as you follow the department's ethical standards-- this involves showing me your work and if I do not scream or turn colors, then you're good to go.
3. You may work on any projects you like as long as there is not a statistical chance that said project is going to kill every person on this crew.

If you are in need of research and development in a particular scientific area, feel free to submit a request and we'll hand out the work within the department.

NOTE TO CREW: Science classes will be starting this week. Our first lecture will be on basic biology, taught by yours truly. Let me know here if you'd like to attend.

On another note, thank you to those of you who donated blood and tissue samples for my research. I've gotten some interesting results from them and I'm very grateful for your assistance.

- Dr. L. Sera
