You're the Next Captain of the Nadesico

[The past few days there had been a drone of Ruri running around, but now she was replaced with some normal unremarkable drone girl in the house on Stevens as Ruri woke up just before sunrise in a new house, in a new bed, next to a sleeping figure with a confused look on her face.  Outside the house at 947 Beulah Street, hovering over it with its loading ramp down covering part of the driveway hovered the Nadesico-C, sitting there as the sun just began to glisten off its hull.]

Action 1 - 947 Beulah Street

[Dressed in a simple dressing gown and bathrobe Ruri peers about the house, she looks a bit older than she did just days ago, though not much.  She walks outside to look around, looks at the address and lets out a breath.]

Two years...  I see.  I wonder how long its been here.

Phone -

I'm not sure how long I was droned, several years passed at home so I'm not sure what has been happening here.  I remember a nuclear bomb attack and that's about it.  The town seems to think I'm the guidance counselor at the High School now.  If the Cosplay Cafe is still open could someone let me know?  Also if there is any new data to be analyzed.  Also apparently the Nadesico is here with me, though I need to check all of her systems over.

Action 2 - School

[Ruri walks into the school, now not as a student but as the force that guides the children to mental stability and prosperity.  You may find her wandering the halls occasionally, or sitting in her new office, putting out a bowl of little chocolates.  After school you will find her sitting at cheer-leading practice, looking horribly unimpressed.]

Why is coaching this my job again?

Action 3 - The Nadesico

[Its big, its shiny, its just hovering there, over the house, and the lot behind the house, and the street....  Its really freaking big.  Ruri is at the entry ramp going over several holoscreens and "hrm"ing a lot.]

[The appearance of a giant ship in Mayfield's skies is enough to get Caesar to trek out to Beulah for a closer look. This better not belong to another giant evil asshole and... that's... okay, that ship really is that huge.

It's not that he doesn't notice Ruri there. He does! But he's taking a moment to stare at the Nadesico and try to decide what exactly he is looking at here.

... Huh..? Are you saying you forgot all about Mayfield when you were in your own world?

I got sent home for a few years... Well... Few years at home... And I woke up here this morning.

Given how she's 23rd century technology it may be a while.

[Ruri peers over at Caesar and after a bit walks over and taps his shoulder]

Are you all right?

[She smiles and gets up, giving him a hug]

Its good to see you again though.

[identity profile] hontobakabaka.livejournal.com 2011-12-03 03:25 pm (UTC)(link)
She is. The third ship to have the name of Nadesico.

[identity profile] hontobakabaka.livejournal.com 2011-12-03 03:25 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, now I'm in a position to ground him I guess so maybe that will count for something.

[identity profile] hontobakabaka.livejournal.com 2011-12-03 03:28 pm (UTC)(link)
Its possible. It has been a well, long time for me. I did try to greet everyone on the phone. Or at least everyone who wasn't an idiot.

[identity profile] hontobakabaka.livejournal.com 2011-12-03 03:29 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes, I woke up there like I was never taken here. Neither I nor Omoikane had any reference to this place.

[He laughs at that, messing her hair up playfully]

Now that, I would pay to see.

That's.. a little sad. [ for a moment she goes quiet, thinking about it. ] If I go home.. I-I would.. like to remember this place. Both the happy and the sad moments, because I don't want to forget everyone..

[identity profile] hontobakabaka.livejournal.com 2011-12-03 11:25 pm (UTC)(link)
There is that. But, I do think that this leads evidence to the theory that those who are droned go home and aren't destroyed so.... That has to count for something, right?

This is your ship?

[He asks as he turns to look at her. He vaguely recalls he mentioning a ship before, months ago.]

... They let ya have the weapons? Are they nuts?

[identity profile] webfreedomftw.livejournal.com 2011-12-04 06:25 am (UTC)(link)
Nadesico... Is there any chance I might be able to talk my way on board for a tour?

[identity profile] sunnysnakeup.livejournal.com 2011-12-04 10:55 am (UTC)(link)
[Sunny looks unsure how to take that. She didn't quite hear the call, so does that still make her an idiot? Ruri, you're totally getting this face.]

You really, really went home? ♪

[...she's just gonna go in for a tackle-hug now.

You know. Because OBVIOUSLY, if you haven't seen your good friend for two whole years, that's how you need to greet them!!]

[personal profile] imoutos 2011-12-04 01:42 pm (UTC)(link)
... Yes.. Y-you're right.

[ she nods to herself. ]

I shouldn't complain, since that kind of news will.. actually make a lot of people happy, won't it..?

It's odd that their body would still be here though.

Yet, when you were home, obviously you had your body, too.

It's like they made some kind of carbon copy or. . .something.

. . .

[a groan!]

Aaaaaaah, man! All this thinking is making my head hurt! Too many questions, not enough answers!

[gonna grab more candy now, chompchompchomp]

[identity profile] hontobakabaka.livejournal.com 2011-12-05 12:25 am (UTC)(link)
Yes. This is the third Nadesico, the one that was designed for me specifically as a captain.

Most of them can't target anything smaller than a semi truck. And there isn't enough power to fire the gravity blast cannons.

There's not much to see right now, but I don't mind giving a tour.
