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!

backdated to December 15th

[riseunparalleled]

Admiral, may I ask that my temporary inmate, known to some by the name Paul Hill, be given blood to consume. Thank you for your time.

[littleonewhosteals]

Hey! Since you directly fucking killed me, maybe you'll actually honor this request. I need a shitload of butterflies. Thousands. I even have a list for you. You know, to make it easy.

Any combination of:
Brimstone butterflies
Monarchs
Mourning Cloaks (best option)
Any large heliconians

[routemistress]

'Ey Admiral, 'ow's it going? Can you give me access to everything John Seed puts on the network please? 'E sort of needs a few extra eyes kept on 'im for a bit.

[shamebat]

Since the greenhouse is now gone and my husband is without his topiaries, I would like to request a 'grow lamp' or two so he can grow them inside our home.

[ukan]

Can we get a few safe 'ink stones'? Or ink that approximates the consistency of cinnabar except sans the mercury. [He's asking for Xie Lian because Xie Lian only just learned about mercury poisoning.]

[skitter]

First- Glad to have you back. Second, paperwork point of order- I need my surname changed to Kiryu anywhere you have it, please.

[epistemological]

[ There's a moment where he's clearing his throat before he starts out. Because this is, uh...

Awkward. ]

I realize you were, uh, very busy with everything going on and the whole ship being a mess and I'm- I'm sure what happened with my lot certainly didn't help but, um...

I wanted to ask if-

If it's possible to know if you've retrieved the tape recorders that were almost certainly either dropped into the sea or ransacked from ship? A-as, um, that- that might leave the- the Dread Powers an in to that world, g-g-given their connection?

I don't-

I know my deal is what it is, but it's-

It's a concern.

[brushoff]

Hey there babe, [ which is an entirely unprofessional way to start off one's announcement but fuck it! ]

Two requests. One, do you do key duplication? I've only got one key to where my lovely little Achilles heel in the form of a lovely little portrait of myself is kept. I'd like to have a back-up, if at all possible.

Two, I know that the wardrobe room has clothes, but does it also stock linens? I've never actually been in there as no offense, I'm not sure about your sense of taste. But my darling inmate has finally gotten herself a man and I'm not going to let her fuck him on whatever awful Wild Wild West sheets she's got in her bedroom. So if the wardrobe room doesn't have linens, consider this a request for one bedding set, pillows included, sized to fit Trixie's bed and made from a nice silk or a nice cotton blend.

[punched_hitler]

[Hi Admiral, how are you doing, long time no talk. In fact, this might be the first and last time now-warden Steve puts in a request, like, ever. We'll see.]

I'd like to be paired with Annie as her permanent warden. As soon as possible. I have to go home for a little while but I'm coming right back. She knows about it.


[ooc: We're requesting this via the pairings page as usual, but it also seemed worth an IC request because Steve wants to "prove" to the Admiral that he needs to come back.]

backdated to shortly after Envy's death

[vampere]

Given his apparent willingness to try and start fights, I'd like to request that Envy be made intangible if he attacks someone. Or otherwise goads them into a fight, if that's possible.

[riseunparalleled]

Admiral, would you be willing to make a copy of Misty Quigley's photograph of her Yellowjackets team photo, from when they were in school? Thank you for your time.

After Elias's Death

[epistemological]

[ He takes a moment to clear his throat. ]

I would like to request your assistance in a punishment for Daniel, given his recent actions.

Specifically, I would like his body to be marked (in places that he can see easily and not his face) with a single brush stroke that he will feel at the time of the marking.

Black marks for lies, spoken aloud to others or spoken internally to himself.

Red marks for violent thoughts of any kind, any moment wherein he decides that he might, for whatever reason, want to or 'have' to cause harm to another passenger.

I would like these marks to be visible to others. They should not be removable until I request as such, if you please.

And I would like this to start immediately, if possible.

[questionsonly]

Afternoon, Admiral.

I'd like to make a request regarding my cabin. Specifically, I would like to switch out the interior of the Urania for the great room of my grandfather's house just outside of Chicago.

I'd like if the biometricly locked container could remain there, but if we could get the master bedroom of that room attached as opposed to using the greatroom as a bedroom? That would be helpful as well.

You can leave the rest of the cabin alone. If you please.

[major_rawne]

One disintegrator ray gun for Norton, please. A small one.

[crab_rangoon]

Admiral, darling, so good to see you. Well. Metaphorically.

Now. I know, I know, I've only just arrived, but I'd really like to do this warden thing right. So! My new little shitheel of an inmate has this hideous pet dinosaur that she calls a bird and has named Caligula. There are pictures of this thing all in her phone. Could you be a dear and provide some printed copies of those pictures?

It might cheer her up after she went and got herself killed somehow. Feel free to send them straight to her room, please. I don't need to see it any more than I already have.

[epistemological]

I'm sorry to come back to you about things, but it was brought to my attention that, well...

There's quite the demand for positions in the library. Not only that but, to be frank, it's a rather complicated and decidedly large space and we really could use the extra work.

I don't know if you'd like to split it by media, such a books, video, and music, or simply fiction and non-fiction, I... leave that in your hands. But I'd rather not turn away those who earnestly wish to work when there is- well, quite frankly, there is plenty to do.

...especially considering the number of people who like to climb the shelves.

[ At least this request doesn't require any real expendature of effort? ]

[ ooc: as per the discussion with Iddy on Plurk ]

[Text, the morning B and Steve leave for their brief sabbatical]

[worthallthis]

Hi.

Not sure if this is a thing you're doing again for more personal things, but can I please get another room added to my cabin with a bed and dresser in it? It doesn't have to be fancy.

Slightly less personal, can we get a small soft and an armchair for the kennel's main room? When we get back I want to finish turning that into a kind of pet therapy room, where people can come relax and play with the dogs and cat.

The kennel stuff is probably more important but if you can manage both I'd be grateful. None of it needs to be done until you pick me and Steve up again once he's done kicking Thanos's ass, so that will give you a little time, if that helps.

[kissthatgoodbye]

I'd like Sariss's lightsaber returned to her, please, with the following modification: if she uses it to initiate an attack on a Barge passenger outside of consensual sparring, or escalates a spar past consent, it shuts off and notifies me via communicator with information regarding who, what, when, and where. Self defense is fine.

There's some sort of connection between a lightsaber and its owner, but I need it to feel as if it's completely normal to her.

In conjunction with his resignation from Zero

[walkingtrigger]

Sir,

I am sorry to hit you with this on the heels of my resignation, but Warden Pagan was unsure how a request from a former Inmate might come across and this is something we both feel strongly about.

In an effort to afford Inmates spending time in Zero a sense of humanity, we were hoping that one of the cells might be transformed into a shower dedicated to Zero. This would allow Inmates to clean up, rather than be forced to sit in filth, which can be damaging to the psyche. It would also remove any temptation to try to escort an Inmate up to the Inmates' showers, which would risk a vulnerability to attack or escape attempts.

Truly we are simply trying to maintain the integrity of Zero, but also taking steps to keep it from becoming a breeding ground for despair and worse behavior.

Thank you,
Tim G

Hey, Admiral. I have a fairly long request, but they're small items. Misty Q wants some photos: one of her high school graduation, Taissa at her wedding, Shauna at her wedding, and Natalie in a leather jacket.

[no_innocents]

A request, Admiral, for my inmate specifically.

I should like to get her favorite knife, the large one I believe, as well as it's sheath. I should also like to request an additional box of bullets, as apparently her concerns for scarcity of such prompted her to allow herself to be beaten.

[ He doesn't sound pleased about that. ]

And, as she has requested the extra time for 'adjustment', in a week or so, if you could return her necromancy to her, at it's full strength. Rest assured I will be teaching her to harness that power properly, but we can't do so while she is restrained.

[tinstar]

I know powers on the shorter end and I appreciate that fact, so instead of asking for a reno of my cabin, I'm looking to get some things that we weren't able to get in port - A couple of chickens to fill out the survivors of the flock in the Greenhouse and a Rooster to go with 'em. Some extra feed to supplement when our scraps won't tide them from day to day and some herb seeds. Just because we're in the middle of space don't mean we don't have a right to fresh herbs.

And any butterflies you can give us.

Thank you.

[brutallyefficient]

Hello,

I know this is a sizable request, but I wanted to ask.

I've met the standards for graduation. In that timeframe, I had one assigned Warden - Rita. She left before I graduated but I know she put in a considerable amount of effort toward helping me. I was wondering if you could give her the deal she asked for even if she is no longer on board.

Thank you.

[draculabutbackwards]

I'd like to request the return of Sephiroth's very special sword. With the mutually agreed upon caveat that the sword will be rendered insubstantial--and, let's say, brilliantly pink and sparkly, so as to detract from any intimidation factor it might retain--in the event he uses it as an aggressor. Incidents of self-defense from immediate threats and mutually agreed upon sparring matches, the consent to which can be revoked at any time will be the exception. And, optimistically, let's include sincere defense of others, just in case that comes up.

[brushoff]

Hey there babe.

Might I have another position in Inventory? I know it's not one of the high importance positions or anything like that, but I've got an inmate that I think I can coax into taking a damn job and not being a useless layabout.
