the pygmalion. . . ONLINE CAPTAIN'S LOG: WEEK (1)

monday (41) survivors It had been three days since you had awoken. The ship was still quiet, except for the low hums of enigmatic machines with no apparent purpose. You awake, like usual, to dim lighting and poor rations. Perhaps being on the ship had grown monotonous — it was, perhaps, amazing how little anything seemed to happen in space, a final frontier of malaise. That monotony is crushed by a voice echoing through the narrow hallways. Reformatting . . . Reformatting . . . Reformatting complete. The Pygmalion is online. Welcome, travelers. Please assemble in the meeting room. Your presence is mandatory. Silence falls once again. A minute or so passes, and the lights around the ship finally brighten, the walls looking more alive and more unfamiliar — as if you must relearn the ship's interior once again. The robots on deck begin to make rounds, nudging and pushing at the ship's passengers to make their way to the meeting room. You hear the doors behind you lock. It seems there is only one path to take. ENTER COMMAND_

Monsters? [woah. neat.] What kind of monsters do you fight?

[adrien there are obviously more important things to wonder about than how cool adelina is but OKAY I GUESS]

[bloodbiter]

The last one was a dragon. Ogres and gryphons are much more common, though.

[monsieurchatastrophe]

An actual dragon? You're really impressive, Adelina! [adrien... you've fought a dragon...]

[bloodbiter]

Oh... Thank you for saying so. I should note that I had quite a bit of help, however.

[monsieurchatastrophe]

That doesn't mean you weren't part of it. That's what teamwork is for, isn't it?

[/thinking of ladybug tbh]

[bloodbiter]

[if she looks uncomfortable at all, it's gone within a few moments.]

Yes, that's true. Working together is very important, but that doesn't make individual contributions meaningless.

[monsieurchatastrophe]

Exactly. And with luck you won't have to fight a dragon here anyway.

[bloodbiter]

That's true, though I'm still hopeful I won't be in this place very long.
