the mock mingle
[An hour ago you woke up in a bed that wasn't yours, awakened by a chirpy, feminine voice coming from the device on your non-dominant arm. The voice cheerfully requests that you exit your sleeping quarters and to please make your way to the the main deck of the ship for a debriefing on your circumstances.
It was around this time you might have noticed the clothes you last remember wearing are gone and replaced with this little number. If you take a moment to check out the Personal Identification Program on your arm, you'll find a touch screen with a few icons that lead to a series of 21 profiles and a series of apps that lead to note-taking functions and a number of customization appearance screens. The profiles all contain a photo of each Champion, their name and title, their age, species and world of origin.
As you stumbled out of your chrome-y quarters (into an equally chrome-y hallway), with every step the floor lights up under your feet, illuminating the dark ship a little at a time. On one side of the hallway are a series of mechanical doors with screen pads embedded on the walls next to them. A quick flash of your PIP will open them for you without hassle. On the opposite side of the hallway are a long string of windows showing nothing but vast amounts of stars and the deep, dark blackness of deep space. Once you reach the end of the hallway you'll find a large central living space with 20 other people, the same people from the profiles, either there already or filing in along with you. Floating well above everyone's heads in the middle of the room is a large computer screen. Once everyone piled in, the screen blinked to life and the same voice from your PIPs greeted you in the same peppy tone from before.
The voice introduced herself as the Champion Excellence Control Environment or C.E.C.E. before welcoming you to the Deep Space Champion Excellence Program, explaining that you were selected for this program based on being the best in your particular field in your particular world, hence the title of "Champion". In this program you will be expected to live communally together here on the ship for as long as possible. The ship is fully-functional and fully-stocked for an extended stay.
Oh? You don't want to stay and participate in the program? That's alright, there's an easy fix to that! All you have to do is kill one of your fellow Champions and not get caught. That is easy enough, right? Right.
When the debriefing is complete, the screen dims but doesn't turn off completely. If need be C.E.C.E. is available to answer any more questions you have throughout the week. For now, you're free to explore the ship as you like. There's the communal dining hall, a zero gravity room, a kitchen, a holo deck, the central living area and the personal quarters everyone woke up in.
Go make some friends, dears, you may be here a while.]

You might've noticed, dude, but none of the rest of us have anything but these dumb leotards.
[ They're certainly not space suits, that's for sure. And call him petty, but he's jealous. Even a tie would make this outfit work better (and maybe distract from how much Barney is packing?) He shifts his weight and squints at McCree. Yep.
He snaps his fingers and draws two fingers up to his eyes in a "eyes over here" gesture. ]
My eyes are up here, bro. Whose ass did you kiss?
1/3
But sure- he pushes the brim of his hat back with a thumb, looking up at Barney (but not bothering to stand to meet him or anything).]
Funny- disembodied ladies ain't my cup of tea. I asked her the same thing when I saw the rest of you.
[He whistles.]
Hey, sugar, mind tellin' this nice gentleman here what you told me earlier?

["Whoop, shit, what was your name again?"]
I am the Champion Excellence Control Environment. You can call me CECE.
["Sure thing, Cece."]
Thank you.
Mr. McCree was allowed to retain one of his personal effects because when he was being changed into the Champion's unitard the Overseers decided that he looked like "a sad, pathetic puppy" without it.

Also note to self, CECE doesn't like nicknames? Lame. Barney just crosses his arms. If he had a hat he could totally look cool. Or a suit, really that would just make everything better. Dammit. ]
So they... took pity on you? Damn, I knew my awesomeness would work against me someday.

["He looked very pathetic without it. Like a sad, naked, scruffy-looking homeless person."]
Thank you, Cece.
