ADMIRAL REQUESTS
New Admiral Request Page Found Here

Post your requests to the Admiral below (and also a note if you would specifically like that request to be rejected), and we will get to them in a timely manner. All Admiral requests (with the exception of Inmate resurrections) must go through this post, and their approval cannot be handwaved. Additionally, requests will only be granted to Wardens.

Unless otherwise specifically noted, all threads on this post are considered to be Private.

Though the Barge does not speak in any traditional way and is not reachable by communicator, it is sentient, and characters occasionally reach out to it via tapping on walls in Morse Code, spelling out messages in alphabet-letter fridge magnets, and other creative methods; if your character decides to try this, those messages may be dropped here as well!

So! This may be a strange request, but I'd like to get a better lock for my cabin. Something as unpickable as possible. With a couple of spare keys.

Much obliged, happy Christmas, since from the decor I'm guessing you celebrate.

Hey, Big Guy.

So I don't have a job anymore ever since I got kicked upstairs to the graduating level.

And the only thing that's open is shit like shower duty and, well, you know me and water.

So! Like. Can we brainstorm here? Something more apropos to my skillset?

[14thcommander]

So! The geothermal vent in Bill's room is an initial success and I'd like to expand it. I'd like the sea cave part to be bigger, and institute a simulated tide cycle, two low tides and two high tides a day. Keep the bottom a mix of rock and sand, with a shallow side that gets exposed during the low tide and a deep end that always has water. I'd like the sandy floor here to get populated with some sort of bobbit-worm type creature that pulls down into the sand and only appears at high tide. The earth variety is acceptable, but I'd also like the water enriched with Yttrium, Samarium, and Promethium, so it should be an animal that can withstand the high heat and metal-enriched water, and I expect we might have to branch out from earth creatures for that.

I'd also like it if the worms concentrated these metals in their bodies, in case Bill decides to snack on them.

At the shallow end of the cave, if you could have a small waterfall dropping down constantly that'd be great.

On the deep side, with the vent, in the upper part of the vent could we get some kind of crustacean population going? Quick-swimming, that can press flat and hide in cracks in the rock, and again concentrating the heavy metals in their bodies.

Where the vent drops... how deep can we make that?

Hey. Long time, no see.

So...my temp inmate Sariss would like her connection to the Force to be returned so she can meditate. If you can do that without unleashing any crazy lethal super powers, I think it's a reasonable request and I'd like her to have it.

[worstweasley]

Admiral,

I hoped you might settle a question that's come up between me and my inmate.

Is his brother the Collector alive?

Thank you,
A. Hux

[shamebat]

Hello, yes, Admiral?

For my inmate Steve, his blood has this strange addiction to it? It makes people wish to do what he says.

He and I both think it would be best if you removed this strange, dark ability before he goes infecting anyone else on this ship.

[callmefives]

Would it be possible to please get Larry a set of blacks in his size, that's absolutely guaranteed to be proof against his own radiation? He only seems to want the gloves right now, but it can't hurt to have the bodysuit too, in case he decides he'd like to not have to deal with all the wrapping and unwrapping.

- Lawrence's control tablet, which allows him (or whoever) to adjust the "levels" of various core personality traits (Lawrence)
- Lawrence's host schematic—basically a Blueprint of Lawrence (Lawrence)
- Teddy Flood's host schematic (Lawrence)
- A copy of the Barge's ship's log (Gertrude)
- Something like a multidimensional trailcam...a camera that flips between different universes and shows animals doing animal things (Misty)
- One of the Admiral's teeth (Bill)
- Either some indication of the status of the egg hatchlings or insight into them (I was thinking like a page ripped from an encyclopedia detailing what species they were or something along those lines would work) (Misty)
- A personal Lyfe Boat (Tess)

- And you know what, give yourself a $10 Starbucks card, Admiral


[ ooc: APOLOGY NOTE!! A lot of these are William trying to push buttons and also metaplot adjacent...I've ranked them in order of importance so if at any point the Admiral would just be like "I'm not dealing with this shit anymore" and stop taking requests from him, you can just say when, it is fine. AND ALSO LITERALLY NO RUSH and also HAPPY HOLIDAYS AND SHIT.

The tablet's on here just so there's a non-plurk record of the request and the specs! ]

[salmonsnacks]

Please can you restore Connor's abilities?? Thank you!! Happy Crass Miss!

[loveisall]

Could Dancy have a key to her bus-cabin? One that would turn on the heat and the radio at the very least?

[wildguardian]

Hey there -- we've got an inmate who needs Zero access to help him control some unwanted powers. Can I get a copy of the Zero warden key for him?

[14thcommander]

Bill and I have been discussing the matter, and I can get him to confirm if you wish: please transform him into a standard-issue human for one week.

backdated to sometime late December because what is time

[weakerprey]

Hey. Double Trouble wants a different cabin setup. Here's the example I got.

[It's a book, flipped open to this image.]

Can you do it?

[gamjam]

Hi Admiral!

This isn't really a request but is it okay if me and Warren put an EMP inside the Enclosure to test it? We're worried it'll hurt the ship so I wanted to ask first.

[shadowsran]

Hey, those forcefields that are keeping Callisto from butchering animals on a whim? Could I get some temporary ones for the koi, aquarium, and chickens that apply to everyone? Not big, just 'can't touch aquarium wall', 'can't dip anything that isn't their food into the koi pond', uh....I don't know, weapons glance off of chickens?

Not forever, just want to suss out some stuff.

[hauntedcalamari]

So Renfield's cabin is basically unfit for human habitation. He wants...

[Here Ben tries his best to recreate Renfield's rambling description of his preferred home.]

So, you know, spooky and Victorian. Probably some of that creepy hair art, four-poster bed, Pre-Raphaelite paintings of women who look dead and kind of annoyed about it? Maaaaybe a fake fireplace, just in case.

And, uh, I've seen these in a zoo once, and I think this might be good for the various living things aboard and him, could one wall be a Madagascar hissing cockroach habitat? That could function as a... vending machine? Spitballing here. Renfield gets bugs, everybody else gets to not worry about their critters?

[amicustenebris]

Please have a second copy of my Inmate's file delivered to his cabin as soon as possible. No redactions necessary.

[14thcommander]

Admiral, for planning purposes, not immediate action: if you'll recall the recent-ish flood where passengers shared emotions... is it possible you could set something like that upon Bill Cipher and I? Possibly more people, but I am intending to ask for their agreement to it and have no specific names to offer right now.

[sunshinelilly]

Hello Admiral! I'm Reith! This is my first request!

Can Sariss have her powers back?

[biocomposer]

Jasper appears to have disappeared from the Barge. I intend to wait for a short time in case she returns; is it possible to be spared from further temporary or permanent pairings until then?

[Note: OOCly it doesn't matter what the Admiral says to this because Jasper's back soon regardless!]

[roci]

Hey, uh. I remember we had a shop on the ship, for a while. I want to start that up again, except instead of souvenirs, actually useful stuff -- you know, basic toiletries, candy, drinks... the stuff you'd get in any kiosk in a base, or at a spaceport.

And I'm volunteering to run it.

People would ask you for little stuff a lot less. And it's another place inmates can work, I guess, if you like that kind of thing.

How about it?

[ukan]

Hello, Admiral. I'm requesting that Pagan Min receive a gun, with the condition that the gun cannot fire unless he's in danger, or unless he's protecting someone else from an immediate threat.

[brutallyefficient]

Hello. I realize this is unconventional, but I'd like to request information about The Barge. You would be the best person to ask in order to get the most accurate information about that. In any case, I've included a list of questions. If you could answer these or point me to a resource where I could find the answer, I would really appreciate it.

[Text Follows]
• Why not give Warden's the quickest method to graduate if the goal is to have Inmates graduate?

• How do you obtain the information for Inmate files? How do you decide what to include in them and what to omit?

• If you have access to Inmate files upon arrival and know what they're like, Why not just assign them to a Warden immediately based on personal characteristics?

• Why do you pair the specific Inmates and Wardens together? Is there a method that you use to assign Warden’s and Inmates together?

• What are the temporary assignments supposed to achieve as opposed to permanent assignments?

• Why do you bring certain individuals here as opposed to others? Are there certain characteristics you look for in a passenger?

• There are certain individuals who have been here multiple times. Is there something significant about those individuals?

• Once an Inmate graduates, what kind of passenger are they if they remain aboard the ship? At that point, they would'nt be considered an Inmate or Warden.

• What does a Warden have to do in order to obtain their deal once an Inmate graduates?

[electronaut]

I know I've only been here, like, exactly a hot minute, but I have come to the humbling conclusion I might have forgotten a thing or two while packing my suitcase, so I have something of a twofer for you.

So, gritty details: Theoretically, would it be possible to grab something out of my closet, and if that's a yes, could we maybe have that happen. Something in the vaguely man-sized and shaped category, the busters are a little in the won't fit in my cabin range.

If it's a no, then how/where would I see about obtaining a very extensive and proprietary list of components I'd desperately like to get my hands on, if that's easier and-or more accessible. And if that's here, what do I need to do to make that happen.

[neverjoinyou]

I'd like to request Merlin's powers be restored. At least in part. I'm his fourth temporary warden and so far, no one's even asked him what he needs, as far as I can tell.
