( shortly after the dossiers drop, and after a hurried convo, McCoy and Yzak hop on the network and get right to business. Bones takes the lead: )
McCoy here–
Since we have our marching orders, I'd like to remind everyone to refill your first aid kit or, if you're new, to come pick one up in the infirmary. Please refrain from eating anything outta them. ( he looks temporarily haunted. don't ask. there's labels on everything for a reason. )
In addition to the included info sheet, a digital pamphlet is now accessible via your earpieces, with a choice of languages and narration provided by your fellow orbers. Thank you again, to those of you who've added to the available database. If you don't see your native language, come find me or Nurse Cabrera. We'll make sure to add it.
( Your choices of languages and vocals are:
Chinese: Wei Wuxian
Common Speech: Yennefer
English: Rita & Marta
Federation Standard: Jim
Galactic Basic: Finn
Japanese: Yujin &Itachi A Female Option
Korean: Jake
Ravkan & Old Ravkan: Alina
Russian: Natasha
Spanish: Marta )
As we're heading off into the black, I've synthesized an additional stock of single dose Tri-Ox for everyone.
( he holds up a slim silver cylinder the size of a pen, flat on both ends, and mimes delivering it to his own shoulder over his shirt.)
If you're caught in a low-oxygen situation, administer it like so. The needle-less hypospray will go through most fabrics, and it should give you a couple of hours before hypoxia sets in, instead of seconds.
Unless you freak out and panic, so try not to do that,
( McCoy composes himself, looking solemn. )
I've asked Viveca about puttin' together a permanent memorial for the orbers, past and present. While we may ultimately leave the Ximilia behind, I feel that there should be something left to honor everyone, their efforts and sacrifices, and the relationships we've all forged here.
Though I've offered up my own ideas on it what it should be, I don't feel right bein' the only voice of a project that concerns all of us.
Please contact Viveca or Degar with your thoughts and suggestions.
( Good? Good. Bones gestures aside. )
Now, I'd like to cede the floor to Yzak, to share what we've been working on the past couple months for you all.
( Yzak appears on the network, expression all serious business as usual. )
We've been focused on expanding the space program that's available to access in the simulation room. We were fine-tuning some final, minute details just prior to receiving our new briefing, so it's just been uploaded as the information will be essential to know for the upcoming mission.
It contains what you'll need to know about all manners of getting around in space. Moving in as well as adjusting to and from zero-g, specific differences as to how space shuttles are operated and kept safe, the ins and outs of wearing and operating an EVA suit. We also have a variety of emergency procedures programmed in, all with a number of different actions available that one can take in response to them, and much more.
It'll be wisest to familiarize yourself with at least these basics by the time we head out. For active training we have shuttle flights set to get the feel of entering and exiting a planet's atmosphere, zero gravity spacewalks, how EVA suits feel on a foreign planet, and other scenarios where you'll need recall and utilize all of the things you learn. While we cannot guarantee that we will see the same things on the mission, familiarity will go a long way.
Between the three of us – Jim Kirk, the doctor, and myself – we figure that since we're being split up into separate groups, we each focus on the team members we're dispatched with. The first group can come to me for simulation training over the next two days, the second to Doctor McCoy, and the third to Jim.
We're all available at any time between now and our departure.
( OOC: Yzak & McCoy will be around just a bit for questions, so feel free to specify who your character's reaching out to! More info about the space training is here. Due to OOC time constraints, the basic training will be handwaved, just please know it takes roughly 9 hours to complete!
Viv & Degar can be reached out to here for memorial ideas! Lastly, check out the holiday survey below! whew. )

Okay, I understand. Thank you. I'll think up a response soon.

Holiday Name: Belleteyn, May Day, Blossoming
Date(s) Observed: April 30th to May 1st
Description: Celebrations start when the sun's setting and last until the next dawn, so station time it's going to be weird? You'd have to pick hours. Maybe Viveca can do something for lights but the next mission's going to happen before this anyway. It's an older fertility festival, but there's food, and drink, and celebrations and expressions of love, mostly the physical kind, too. People jump over bonfires for luck!
Items Needed: Whatever foods people like, whatever drinks people like. Sim room with a bonfire we can leap over for luck. Can the sunshine room have a night sky at all? We couldn't do a bonfire in there, I don't think so at least, but it'd be nice to have a sunset to sunrise somewhere other than the sim room.
Do you need assistance? I can't cook anywhere near enough for this so yes, please. I mean that literally, I can make broth and probably soup and the rest is in progress.
May others celebrate with you? I'm going to say you should all enjoy celebrating it with whoever you choose in your own privacy later, but maybe we can set up a bonfire together in the sim room first? That and the feasting together would be fun. Not that I think we'll be here for it, but at least the idea's nice.
There's others, but I guess...
Holiday Name: Saovine, Samhain
Date(s) Observed: End of October through Beginning of November, at least the 31st to the 1st? Makes more sense for it to be shorter here.
Description: I guess you'd call this a new year celebration. It's the start of our new one. It's also the end of the harvest season and start of winter, with feasts and big gatherings along with bonfires. These ones aren't for luck this time, they're for protection and cleansing. The boundaries between the living and dead thin, so you can leave settings at the table in honour of your dead family. Blood or otherwise. The ones who might come visit, wherever you are.
Items Needed: Um, food? Another bonfire in the sim room I guess. It's more feasting and drinking, and I don't know that anyone's going to set things out for their dead. But it might be nice. We won't have to worry about hearing any banshees at least. Unless one of us is one.
Do you need assistance? If there's food involved and anyone expects it to be more than broth.
May others celebrate with you? Yeah, well, if anyone wants to?
