001: Alex, Bobbie and Amos are Judging You

The Martians and the Earther are sitting at a table in the Mess Hall, and they've started a game. That game? To rate everyone else on the ship in order of attractiveness. Want to be rated? Find the comment header below, drop a picture in of your character, and watch the comments fly. Feel free to overhear them and give them hell.


002: Closed, Alex >> Frank

Going on the morning walk-about to search for Holden was ritual, at this point, and Alex was very used to Frank coming over first thing before they headed out. So the door was already open, waiting for him. Alex was fishing through his drawers, trying to find where he'd stashed that singular glove that he'd found, to show him for a laugh. But instead his fingers found something else - a thin sheet of plastic, creased and bent a hundred thousand times, and Alex's heart nearly stopped.

He pulled it out of the drawer like it was made of plutonium, careful not to touch the edges of the drawer with it.

Christ. Oh, Christ.


003: Open, Alex >> Anyone who wants to find this wrecked man.

He goes straight to the bar.

It's not that he isn't a fairly regular fixture there, anyway, but especially right now, all he really wants is to drink until he numbs everything. So hi, have a depressed Martian with a bottle of who knows what, sitting at the bar and just staring at a picture of a woman and a child smiling lovingly at the camera. He keeps stroking his thumb over it, then looking wrecked and saying something like 'god damn it' under his breath before he pours himself another drink. One of his arms is still wrapped up in a sling against his chest.

If he recognizes you, he might look up when you get close, and sigh. "Hey, partner. Everythin' alright?" Because it's a lot easier to worry about other people, than to keep being miserable about yourself.

She seems to think it over, when really she's just deciding if she should press to get him to talk about whatever's on his mind. It's a quick decision to get him to help out, and then maybe get hm to talk later.

"I found these under my pillow a week or so ago."

The four pages containing information about locked doors, codes, and the need for a crew manual. "I've been trying as many codes as I can think of, but I could always use help thinking of more."

"I might have found a way. I'm not sure how true any of this is yet. Frank and I have been working separately to see if we can gain access through any of the doors, but we haven't been successful yet."

With a frustrated sigh, she reaches up to rub at her temple. The numbers are starting to all blur together now, and with nearly limitless possibilities, it's even more of a headache.

"Each door has a unique code, so it's really a matter of trying everything."

"Well over a million," she agreed, sighing in frustration. "I've just been working with numbers so far, but letters are a possibility."

Her fingers tap against the edge of the bar top, thinking some things over. "But we can start listing combinations of both. I'll start putting them in at different panels later today."
