Stern? I wasn't exactly intending for that look, I'm just dressing and acting how I normally do.

Man, I'm going to have to show y'all how to loosen up a bit if we get some free time. Feels like some wacky modern western in here.

Well that's a bit harsh... albeit somehow I don't think I'd like your version of fun.

Ah no you’ll be fine, everyone loosens up with a bit of booze!

Thanks, but I prefer my own drink.

Appreciate the offer, but drinking is a liability.

So what the hell are you? Lost on your way to the hospice? This isn't even a boat, old man.


Hmph, we all know why we're here. Jury duty at some obscure tribunal.

I wont complain given how luxurious this is.


Well you look ridiculous. I guess they pick off just about any weirdo they see on the street nowadays. Why even bother is what's beyond me.


You don't look that well off yourself


At least I look like I belong to this century, old fart.

[Renetear] sits in a seat with both seats next to it unoccupied.

[Nelly] waves to [Schultz] and pats the seat next to them.

[Cyantic] wakes up. Never before has a wake up been as graceful or beautiful as this one was.

Have we not taken off yet? Who are we waiting for, then?

...

Guess that's more of a rhetorical question then anything. I guess... it gives me some more time to puzzle things over. I suppose that's a virtue in of itself.

They can take as long as they like. Haven't had time to rest like this in a while.

Hm. It's odd, though. Just thinking about it. Did they make you perform an ID check at the gate? That's... very strange, right? And now... ridiculously plush airline and a captain with no legal experience.

Nothing screams clandestine like a billion dollar jet, right? I don't get it.

If this is as important as it is, they likely want to be absolutely sure we are who we are. Wouldn't you do the same?

It's exceedingly sloppy. If this is that important, then such a thing shouldn't happen at the gate. They clearly have the money to check ahead of time. There's no need for it at that point - if there is, they've done their job horribly wrong. And... well, look around you. They don't really strike me as the type of people to fuck up that badly.

So, why then? Did they genuinely not know who was going to show up? How many invites got sent out? A few other bits and pieces, too. It's too odd for me to shake the feeling entirely.

(You did all have to pass through customs and present a valid passport and your jury summons letter. That was going to be the starting game "puzzle" but I felt it to be so trivial that I didn't bother with it. Also I didn't want 12 PM threads of it.)

[Schultz] turns their head towards [Nelly], then turns back and straightens up against the wall.
