Housepets!

'fraid not. I don't live there, and haven't visited in a while.
------------------------------------------------------------------
On another note, I feel I should mention that at the moment the FIREBRAND device I've been talking about is a bit of a McGuffin. I don't plan on revealing exactly what it is or what it does for a long time. I feel I should mention this because I've been revealing stuff about it faster than I wanted to and I've had to come up with a lot of different and increasingly complicated ways to keep it from folks. I have more layers prepared if needed, but part of the fun of this is the mystery of what it is.
------------------------------------------------------------------
Also, am I allowed to respec or something? I think I need to drop MT's intelligence and put the points to his charisma. I didn't actually expect to get his personality fixed this fast, and his intelligence might be lower than I set it due to lack of experience.
------------------------------------------------------------------
Why do I get the feeling that something is going to happen during the drill? I have nothing solid, but my foreshadowing sense is tingling.

I would be interested in rejoining steelhaven if possible. If yes, then I'll add a character list tomorrow after work.

Sorry I took so long to respond. What was your character again?

i believe this is the one : https://www.housepetscomic.com/forums/v ... 36#p632136

Oh Barry? Yeah he's fine, go right ahead. Just find a spot for your character to reinsert himself.

where is the ship? in space?
can Barry have his security job back?

If so, you get to work with my character!

And I think we are in space right now, but since my character just woke up from a 250 year long nap, I don't fully know where we are.

As he never resigned and it's pretty much the next day...

They've left the Tarn Station and are en route to Earth.

I will try to read through and catch up, then post.

I think our characters will get along when they eventually meet.

PM'ed Corp's reply to Deske.

Oh. Ok.

Lies. I'm just omniscient.

I've got some bad news. My cat Petey, one of my best friends for the past fifteen years, is in a really bad spot. We don't know how much longer he has. I'm going to try to keep posting, but if I go dark for a bit.....
Just wanted to let you guys know, in case worse comes to worse.

Oh no! I'm really sorry to hear that.

Do what you need to do to take care of your friend. We will be here when you are ready.

I''m sorry to hear that , take as much time as you need.

Yeah. Sometimes these things can come as a hammer blow. I've ridden out a few in my time. You will never forget this friend. This family.

Cyber, you and Deske need to slow it a bit. Some of the more irregular posters may be having trouble keeping up.

There used to be a limit of five posts a day. I don't want to go back to that but it has to be an option.

Sorry. I'll slow down.

the plan is they're moving toward earth or something right ?

Yup. They is on their way.

Name: Lieutenant Richard Kingston
Sub Rank: Engineering Technician
Color: #977abc
Type: Main
Species/Breed: White German Shepherd
Age: 6.6 Human Years/23 Pet Years
Neighbourhood: STEELHAVEN

Appearance: Predominantly white with black coming up from his muzzle and down his ears, as well as on his hands and feet. Born with an exceptionally long tail, he has since had it amputated following an incident, and it ends at half its original length. His eyes are light brown and can look amber in some lighting. He wears a standard uniform but tends to accessorize with guitar picks, false communicators, and various implement that allow him to look busy without actually being up to anything. Though he's a layabout, he's pretty trim in build, though it may not necessarily be any more healthy than if he looked like his diet would suggest.

Personality: Relaxed and sure-footed, he comes across as knowing what he's doing even if it's not quite clear to everyone else, potentially not even to himself. He is a quick thinker, and a little too eager to get out of work, but he is an honestly skilled technician. It's convincing him to do his job that's the hard part- unless there's pressing concerns, he's the worst layabout you've ever heard of, but with a cause he can be determined and focused. This is probably the only reason he still has a job.

Other notes: May have skipped out on as much of non-essential classes as possible, and is as a result not very skilled with aiming firearms, though he knows the ins and outs of many weapons. He has never experienced first-hand combat, and might go into a numbly panicked state if such a thing happened, in spite of his years of training on the subject. He is fine under long-range ship-based combat, however. Eats a lot of energy bars and snacks, but should probably be reminded to eat some real food every now and then.

S.P.E.C.I.A.L stats:
- Strength: 4 "What? That was my bad arm"
- Perception: 7 "Something's up, and I'm making it my business"
- Endurance: 4 "Let's see... doctor's notes got me out of... 300 days of phys ed?"
- Charisma: 8 "I'm here to make friends, of course. Why else would I go to tech school?"
- Intelligence: 7 "Just because I can't be bothered to look up doesn't mean I'm not listening"
- Agility: 6 "I bet you I can catch that"
- Luck: 7 "Sure, I guess I have it pretty good"
- Repairing: 9 "It's literally my life's work"
- CB: 2 "Like I said, engineering, not military"

((I hope I did this right :0))

My only real concern is the 'layabout' part. People seem to be tying to slip those in like the STEELHAVEN is a cruise ship rather than a battleship and explorer. Plus any such person would need approval from both Corp and Captain and it's doubtful they'd let that pass. Someone who does their job and nothing more would be better.

Got to agree with Welsh about this. The ship seems to be under constant threat of attack, so the captain and chief won't really tolerate someone who won't work without being forced. Though I think a talk with MT might help him realize the importance of the repair man's job.

BTW, can I change around MT's stats? He went through a major change when he got his brain fixed.

Yeah, Richard would not last long on this ship, unless he was REALLY good at his job. Though I suppose he could've transferred to the Steelhaven as a punishment.
Also Cyber, feel free to change whatever you think needs changing.

so we have Jacey's character who got transferred here as a punishment, Cyber's character who got locked up and ended up here, Furrhan's characters who i think snuck onto the ship, Deske's character who has disciplinary problems, my character, if she ever shows up, is a literal villain-made bio weapon gone rogue, and now Silver's who might ended up here as a punishment........

Is steel haven a cargo ship or a disciplinary facility ?

Mine didn't sneak onto the ship. They were rescued.

Welshie's character Keeva snuck on.

oh , right , my bad. Still proving my point though

My character got stationed here. Barry was here because of disciplinary problems.

barry is officially here because of that, your character just doesn't take orders seriously from time to time

But that has nothing to do with why he's here in the first place unlike everyone else's reasoning in your list.

i wasn't listing everyone's reasons for being there, i was listing some details which lead to my joke, in that each of the characters has their own traits which might not be desirable for being the crew on a ship.
But i think i should stop before a joke turns into a argument

Agreed. No harm, no foul.

My apologies, I missed the last line.

Here. Take this picture of a dog as proof.

I don't even think I made an official reason for Barry's punishment, I kept changing it I think.

I think barry once told someone about hí backstory, which is i think he went against order to save someone or something

Yup.

So what is everyone waiting on?

I'm really not sure. Lego will post in the next 24 or so hours, I know this. But, as for everyone else? Unknown.
