[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!))

I like the big scary teeth and claw things... But I like coloring and yellow and flowers. And games. But those are pretty dumb things to call someone.

[scribbly]

[okay, names she's starting to get the general gist of, thanks piggyback man, buuut...]

My what? [sounds like boring adult stuff!!!]

[court_chesster]

Daisy? Daffodil? Lion Lily?

...Those are the only three yellow flowers I can think of.

[whenitrainsitstorms]

Rank designation.

What you used to do on the ship, before we forgot everything.

[whenitrainsitstorms]

I think we just don't remember them.

The voice said that the crew suffered memory loss and possible psychological damage. Does that sound like anyone you know?

[scribbly]

Roses are yellow too sometimes! [This isn't a suggestion so much as it is her saying a thing because she likes that she knows that thing.]

They're all so pretty... Is it okay to have a flower's name?

[court_chesster]

They are, huh? I don't think I knew that.

The flowers won't mind, I promise. Do you like Rose?

[scribbly]

Roses are my favorite! Does it sound cute?

[court_chesster]

Super cute!

[fandisservice]

Unfortunately, my dance card was booked solid and you had to ask whoever the fuck second choice was.

[ Starts looking through the lockers himself, as he chatters. ]

[fandisservice]

What, are we taking role-call or is there an emergency the computer is being blasé about?

[ Hi, he's late because he took the time to try and get new clothes, but in the end decided slacks and shirtless is the best option. ]

[whenitrainsitstorms]

A little bit of both.

[Turns to look at him, and does a bit of a double-take at the clothes swap. But he just raises an eyebrow before going serious again and returning to business.]

The computer is missing information that it needs to function well enough to keep everyone on board safe. Among that information is the name and rank designation of the crew.

[scribbly]

Oh. That sounds dumb. Coloring and hide and seek and stuff is what I wanna do. Can that be my...rank designation?

[court_chesster]

[nods]

It's got to have some kind of auto-pilot. None of us should be touching anything while we're in this state.

[whenitrainsitstorms]

Well, one of the designations is "passenger." It means the crew does the work, and you're just along for the ride. Does that sound like something you'd like?

[whenitrainsitstorms]

Agreed. I don't want us breaking anything vital.

[He taps the screen with the map, touching the engine room.]

We need to do something about this, though.

[scribbly]

That means I can just do what I want, right, if there's no work I have to do? That's fine!

[she knows what she's about and having to do work sounds like not doing games!!!]

[scribbly]

Then...I think calling me Rose is fine!

[court_chesster]

Hopefully it can walk us through how to fix it.

[court_chesster]

Nice to meet you, Rose.

[pats her on the head]

[whenitrainsitstorms]

Right. You can just have fun and do what you want. We'll set your designation as the passenger, then.

Have you picked a new name?

[whenitrainsitstorms]

[Nods.]

It seems to have a lot of information.

Computer... Do you know how to fix the damage in the room in red?

[court_chesster]

I'm pretty sure your room is the one next door...

[ima_npc]

Diagnostics are in progress.

[court_chesster]

That means "maybe."
