2. Oh how droll.

You know, it's pretty worrisome when the lights go out in the showers. You never know what' s waiting in the shadows. It seems familiar.

{Private video to Bertie]
Last time I was here, I was killed in the showers. Twice. It's scares me when things are like this. Can you ask the Admiral to give me a bathroom? I'm really worried about this.

[Lip wibble, and a haunted glance..]

[Private to Rex]
Okay, baby bro, you've been quiet for too long. Where are you?

[The lip wibble gets him every time.]

Why, that's horrible! A girl shouldn't have to be afraid to wash up. I'll request a private bath for you right away.

Private

Thank you, Bertie. I'm going to keep on trying to be good.

[Someday this will be considered too easy, but for now she's having too much fun with it.

Private

[what_ho_jeeves]

Right-o. So far you've been quite good, indeed. Not a single national monument destroyed since you've been here. Keep it up and we should have you graduated in no time.

Private

[seeyaduke.livejournal.com]

Here's hoping, Bertie.

Private--Later

[what_ho_jeeves]

What ho, Ana!

I asked the Admiral to give you a private tub, and he say he couldn't. I--OW OW OW OW!

[And the video image starts bouncing around madly as Bertie plays hot potato with his communicator. It doesn't occur to him to just drop it.]

No joke, yo. It's getting kind of Oz out there.

[seeyaduke.livejournal.com]

Less like Oz and more like a Stephen King novel, I think.

Next thing you know they'll be creepy clowns or Randal Flagg.

[yeahscience.livejournal.com]

Nah, it was already skewing like Silent Hill. Now with the showers...

[seeyaduke.livejournal.com]

Silent Hill. That makes sense. We'll know if there's a port.

It's pretty worrisome when lights go off anywhere, especially with all these...oddities going on.

[audio]

[seeyaduke.livejournal.com]

Definitely. I'd much prefer it if the lights stayed on.

You're new right?

[audio]

[momunculus.livejournal.com]

Yes, I just arrived here a few days ago. I've been reading as much about the ship as I can over the journals, though.

[seeyaduke.livejournal.com]

That's clever, and a good way to start. I'm Ana. Who are you?

Private

[requiresssacrifice]

Ever since the... kidnapping fiasco, I've been hiding in Iago's room.

Private

[seeyaduke.livejournal.com]

Are you alright?

Private

[requiresssacrifice]

Yeah. It was more irritating than anything else.

Private

[seeyaduke.livejournal.com]

Good. She was the one who looked like Duke?

And now 21 fails at smooth.

[twoton21.livejournal.com]

Now there's a face I was hoping to see.

[seeyaduke.livejournal.com]

Two Ton Twenty-One. I wondered if I might see you again. And now a warden. My, my, my.

[twoton21.livejournal.com]

Well remembered.

And yeah, trying that one on for size, just for now.

[seeyaduke.livejournal.com]

Going over to the side of the right and boring, huh?

[fearcutsdeeperthanswords]

Familiar to what?

[seeyaduke.livejournal.com]

How things were during the blackout.

[fearcutsdeeperthanswords]

What blackout?

[seeyaduke.livejournal.com]

A couple of months ago there was a blackout. Well, probably longer now. The whole barge went crazy and all the rooms changed to vacant places and there was no heat, no power and very little food.
