pulse, and other, open mingle (12-7 to whenever)

[ex_resound725]

[Wowee! We get hit with a pulse on the seventh! Isn't that fun! Also, a ship crashed, and baby it's cold inside. Some prompts.

A: Pulse: A pulse hit the planet! Life support went out, and that super sucks, but it will only last for an hour. Maybe more sucky: some or all of your powers may or may not have died! That's awkward. Are you disappointed you can't walk through walls now? Has nothing changed for you? Are you now a dead girl because you made a deal some aliens? Are you a sword? Have fun kids, and try not to hold a Class Trial.

B: Salvage: That sure was a ship that went down! URSULA identified it as the Narcissus which is apparently a human military ship so obviously this will be safe and no one is going to come across any type of trouble salvaging the ship. Maybe someone should text Naoko to tell her what's going on. Everything is fine.

C: Blanket-sharing meme: You know what you're here for.

D: ETC: Roxy is putting up mistletoe, there are flowers, people keep building stupid things. Do whatever!]

More or less...well, it works best in a group. If it were just me I'd probably just hide under all the blankets.

[thatsthespirit]

[leans over and peers into the blanket fort]

A group? But there are only two of you.

[oneandmikleonly]

Well--

[it's not like there isn't room. gestures at the pad he's holding]

Do you want to watch?

[thatsthespirit]

[tilts her head to the other side]

Before I answer, may I ask what it is we're watching?

[oneandmikleonly]

Well, I decided maybe we'd watched The Little Mermaid enough times this month, so we're trying Atlantis...I haven't read a detailed breakdown of the plot or anything, but it's an animated film about a researcher who goes under the ocean to find a lost island and the people that live on it.

[thatsthespirit]

[. . . she has no idea what any of that means, but. . .]

Now that sounds appropriate for the situation we're all in currently. Of course I'll join you.

[a pause]

[and then she crouches down and CRAWLS INTO THE BLANKET FORT. her floofy hair takes up like. . . half of the available space. . . sry Mikleo]

[oneandmikleonly]

[makes a noise of faint surprise and sort of shifts the pillows and blankets around to make more room. at least it's warm. waits until they're all resettled before hitting play]

Just let me know if you want to switch it over at some point, all right? We've got a surprisingly broad selection.

[thatsthespirit]

Considering I don't know anything about The Little Mermaid or other pieces of your collection, I doubt I'll want to switch.

[plus maybe she can learn something about living in an underwater society from Atlantis?? maybe. . . after all, she learned so much about humanity from the human books she read back home!!]

[oneandmikleonly]

[MILLA...MILLA NO...okay actually maybe Atlantis is a slightly better reference than 1950s instructional videos]

Okay. I don't think this one's meant to be racy or anything, at least.

[only TRAGIC TO START WITH]

[thatsthespirit]

[shhhh everything will be okay]

It isn't? That's almost disappointing. Nevertheless, I'm sure it'll be enjoyable.

[what does that say about her tastes, omg]

[oneandmikleonly]

[um. covers his mouth]

I mean, we can take that into consideration for next...time...?

[kida's mom glowing is a little distracting]

[thatsthespirit]

Oh no, it's all right. It isn't a nece-- did that entire city just sink into the ocean?

[why yes, yes it did]

[oneandmikleonly]

I...admit, I was not quite expecting that, but, well, that explains why someone's...looking for the place...

[thatsthespirit]

And how it got underneath the ocean, too. I suppose neither of us should really be surprised.

[she chuckles to herself in amusement]

[oneandmikleonly]

It seemed improbable, that's all! For a landmass to just--sink--
