new player welcome post
[Hello, new players! This post is for new and old players to get acquainted with each other in-character (IC) and out-of-character (OOC). I will be updating the character roster shortly for easy reference. Characters from the first arc who are still wrapping things up in Move 24, feel free to continue; I'll get to y'all shortly.
In the meantime, feel free to introduce yourself in OOC threads, including any information you want other players to have about you (including pronouns if relevant, or what time zones you're usually on, that kind of thing.]
[IC]
Ashari has just recruited a number of newcomers to the team in the hopes of shoring up its weaknesses and is, in classic Andan fashion, throwing a party on the Cantata (the moth ship formerly known as the Wasp and/or Bumblebee) so that folks can meet-and-greet. There are canapés, and Ashari promised Sulen that there are no recreational substances other than the alcohol if anyone wants it; Ashari is currently in the galley mixing drinks for anyone who asks. The public spaces of the interior have been decorated with somewhat lopsided and overly colorful artificial flowers (the matter printer was feeling cranky) as well as plush moths. There are in addition six friendly levitating baby moths, all wriggly tentacles and eyes, who will gravitate toward anyone who sings to them, and who like to be petted.
For the purposes of this post, "public areas" include the galley, the common room, and the storage hold, which has been temporarily pressed into service as a place where people can hang out. People are also welcome to hold private conversations elsewhere. For the moment, however, the cockpit, engine room, commander's office, and communications room/gunnery are off-limits.
[See this wiki entry on the Cantata-Wasp for more details on its layout.]

interplanetary anthropology
At this point, Sasha gets sucked back into the practical conversation with Seyli, and from there she goes to speak to Ashari and Sulen at the bar. When she returns to Ione's side, she's obviously flushed.
"The thing I keep wondering is, does the heptarchate really have more torture? Or is it just more obvious about it? Or--hells--more effective? I know it was easier to be a foreigner in the heptarchate in my time than it became, later. But where I come from--though they never said they tortured people--they said people had made appropriate recompense for crimes committed. Or that there was a little brushfire war somewhere else. The soldiers had not exhibited ideal control under stress. You know, the way governments always lie."
