let's make a plan of attack

[airlockedmods]

[The Spitter account has been quiet for a few weeks, after the cameras were removed from the Temerity. The password was changed so that the crew of the Temerity couldn't get into the official account, but there was nothing stopping them from making their own.

Whether they have their own account or just scroll through it in their free time, however, #Airlocked! has been trending all week on social media and it all comes from the Airtalked spitter account which has been spitting vague words all week.

Today, there's a new spit on the account, along with a respit of a thread from what looks like a highly popular fan spitter:]

Got the clues? Join me this weekend for Airlocked! fun and games, and a chance to get YOUR message featured in the SPECIAL BONUS CONTENT!

[The image attached to the first spit in the thread is some kind of map with a variety of planet-sized buildings all with space-themed names like the Tropicancer, Halley's, the Monte Starlo, Treasure Planet, and the Milkyway Bay hotel.]

As if that wasn't enough, participating will also enter you to win a prize of 50,000 credits!! #VQCC

So get your clue-finding hats on and get ready for a mystery that YOU get to solve, and get excited for Season 3 coming soon! WOO!

And a BIG shout out to @Airtalked for giving me the honor of letting me run this event!! THANK YOU GUYS

[You have a fist full of spitter, a tank full of fuel, and a map full of stupid space puns. What's the plan, Temerity?]

[ well tbf it kind of is but ]

'Tis still an indecency!

[ look it's one thing to be the primary caregiver when your mother goes into labor or levitate naked in the woods with satan, this is still weird. however, she's remembering the latter right about now, so she follows up with a sheepish mumble: ]

And like as not unhealthy.

I know, Yurika, I know. [He trusts you guys and he's working on getting back into openly talking about feelings and stuff now that the, you know, constant threat of death and imprisonment isn't hanging over his head.] I'll be okay.

[unhappylittletrees]

[That gets a bit of a smile out of him.] If things get too rough, I'll hide in a bathroom or something. I'll be alright, Jane.

[Some more than other but he is Doing His Best with the help of some quality alien anti-anxieties.]

[There's plenty of advertising for the conventions! #VQCC is pretty much everywhere, along with ads for several other InterGal7 programs that seem to be focused on other hotels.

The only thing about the scavenger hunt is a vague "Find the clues, solve the mystery for your chance to win 50,000 credits and to have your message featured in the special bonus content." But hey, at least that's proof that it's a legit thing?

You've got the two places you need to hit up in the morning. Time to split up, team.]

[unhappylittletrees]

[He shoots her a thumbs up without lifting his face from the mattress. Thanks, Yurika, you're a true friend.]

[refusedtoleave]

Maybe they were looking for something more specific.

[refusedtoleave]

Like a hot spring?

[Not sure how she feels about this.]

[stitch_in_time]

Hm, contractions'd be a good place to start, if you can. "I'd", instead of "I should," that'll cover a lot of it.

[However English gets translated into the languages they're going to encounter, anyway.]

[And let's assume he gives a small rundown of other basic differences between modern day English and Ye Olde Puritan, because Phas is not sure where to start.]

And I guess overall I'd say to try imagining how Jane or Jimmy'd say something, if you're not sure.

[ratherdoweddings]

I'm worried they're baiting us.

[ratherdoweddings]

Huh? Why would it be unhealthy?

[ratherdoweddings]

Okay! We'll make it through this, just wait.

[refusedtoleave]

It could just be for show. If they'd wanted to stop us from getting loose they could have kept us trapped in this machine.

If they trick us into showing ourselves to the public, and they still think we're actors...

[ratherdoweddings]

I think they're only letting us be because we're serving as free advertising right now. We can't let the truth come out because they've got our friends. It's an equal, precarious balance.

[imnotfat]

That sounds like it could be worse.

[He still has no interest in the plebes' pasttimes, but given their mission right now, it doesn't sound like there's going to be big obstacles in the way]

So we should be okay as long as we don't get anyone's attention.

[cyan_maid]

[A tired smile, and she comes over to give him a tight hug. Please don't over-exert yourself Jamie, pleeease.]

Just say you're my big brother if people ask, okay?

[curdle]

We should be each in the other's ablutions!

[ Jane taught her that the natural protective layer of dirt is actually a good thing to get rid of, so she's kind of seesawed the other way. Clearly they are all washing off their own death germs and would be marinating in them in this scenario! ]

I mean-- [ wacky hand gestures that don't exactly illustrate her point ] --the dirt.
