Who: Everybody
When: Day 02, evening
Where: The Heart Chamber

[Suddenly, the computer's voice comes back online, filling the ship.]

— sting, testing, testing— success.

Attention, crew. Please listen for an important update:

Automated computer self-repair is proceeding without errors. The process has recovered a cache of encrypted data. Decryption of these items is relatively low priority, as they do not directly pertain to the safety of the ship or the crew. However, based on their original indexed locations, this data appears to contain the old crew roster, the computer's original personality matrix, and backups of the current crew's memories.

In addition to being encrypted, the crew's memories have been badly corrupted. Before further decryption can be completed, it is essential to determine which set of memories belongs to which member. One memory from each set has been isolated. Please proceed to the heart chamber and enter a pod to experience the memories. After you are finished, please indicate which belong to whom.


((Ask questions of the computer here
Deposit memory write-ups here. When in a pod, everything feels very real, as if it is happening to them in real time, but is on a set course that cannot be changed. There's an IC pause between each one, so feel free to react to them. Their own memory will feel slightly more "correct" than the others.
Reactions))
Who: Dumb jerks with amnesia
Where: A dumb spaceship in space
When: Day 02

[YESTERDAY SUCKED maybe today will suck marginally less???]
[That night (it's night according to the computer clock, anyway), something happens. Wherever you are, whatever you're doing, you open your eyes and see a glowing display hovering in the air. They follow the motion of your head, and you can only see your own. It is accompanied by a voice that reads the text and seems to be coming from inside of your ear. It has the same electronic cadence as the computer, though the voice seems a bit... off?]

HI! IT'S ME, THE COMPUTER. :)

YOU'VE ALL HAD A VERY ROUGH DAY AND IT IS TIME FOR A MORALE-BOOSTING OPPORTUNITY. PLEASE RANK YOUR CREW MATES FROM BEST TO LEAST BEST. THE CREW MATE DEEMED BEST OF BEST WILL RECEIVE A REWARD.

VOTE BY LOOKING AT THE FACE OF YOUR CHOICE AND BLINKING TWICE.


((Preliminary vote for the game that starts tomorrow, 6:00pm PST. The display will not disappear from the characters' vision until they have blinked at every face on the display, either intentionally or accidentally.

VOTE HERE
Pre-game mingle and general confusion over what is happening goes here))
[After two hours, give or take, the doors open. The computerized voice makes an announcement:]

Life support is fully operational throughout the ship. Bridge crew, please proceed to the bridge to view the full damage report.

((Characters are free to explore the ship. I'll answer whatever questions are posed to the computer, but it doesn't get replies so poke me if I don't seem to notice. o/

ETA: Assume the engine room is locked off for now!))
[You awaken from a deep sleep. You are groggy and cold and feel off in ways that may be initially difficult to place. The door to your stasis pod opens. How did you get here? That's a really good question. Who are you? That's another.]

[Step outside into the warmer (albeit not especially warm) room and you'll see the others, all dressed in a similar style of stasis suits. One or two of them are wearing the same colors as you, though it's perhaps hard to tell with the dim, red glow that fills the room.]

[The doors are closed. There is no apparent way to open them. And a robotic voice intermittently rings through the room:]

Life support is being restored to the facility. Please stand by.
Here is a post for the planning and talking of things more conveniently than in a googledoc!!

Free-for-all dream post!


Make your own dream threads, hop into others'. Bounce characters off each other, try out effects, see what sticks. Anything you want to keep you can keep, anything that isn't working, it was ~all just a dream~.

ESSENTIALLY:
- The character does not remember their name
- Something else is missing/altered as well. Memories? Feelings? Abilities? It's up to you. o7
