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!

Sometime midway through the 27th

[A good chunk of Hopper1's time, once it actually GETS to the Barge, is finding a place it can be useful.

The rest of it is finding a place it can safely spend time without being overwhelmed, or causing a surprise transmutation. This battle does not need Malgams!

In all of the chaos, options such as the Greenhouse, the Library, the Engine Room... all get ruled out as people bring the fighting around, to various catastrophic ends.
At least the Engine Room is still intact?

Still, it ends up settling somehow on one of the middle floors - in the Inmate Bathrooms, in fact - and tries to calm down.

Then, mindful of certain discussions it had had this month, it tries reaching out - to the Admiral, the Barge, whoever chooses to respond, if any of them are available during what's probably the height of the fighting.

It taps out, using what it hopes is Morse Code like what B was using:]

Testing. Testing. Can you hear me? Hello? Would like to talk.

[Over and over, perhaps in variations, until or unless someone responds.]

It takes a while -- the Barge and the Admiral are both extremely distracted -- but at last the lights flicker wildly: two short two long two short, pause, repeat.

? ? ? ?

The pause does serve to emphasize just how chaotic the fighting is getting - if this ship starts listing, it's not sure where everyone could even go.

It taps out, trying to condense its thoughts to be as concise as possible: captains ever normally ask for help? fighting = normal? avoidance = normal?

Avoidance of each other is what it means, but that may not be how it sounds - hopefully the Barge can at least pick up the Chemy's intent?

no the ship says: three questions but one answer, with the Barge rushed and her focus on the combat going on around her.

And Hopper1 allows itself a moment to feel that ache; lack of interaction with those like you, having to fight to survive...
Having no one to ask for help, even when you have those you help.

okay, Hopper1 taps out, and seemingly the conversation ends there.

(By the end of the fighting, it manages to sneak out, collect just enough scattered flowers from the disarrayed Greenhouse, and make something that could be mistaken for a flower crown.

It's left in the inmate bathroom, though Hopper1 is whisked back to the Narrenschiff before it can offer any sort of explanation.)
