voice - [mid-morning, January 7th] [open to everyone]

[abundantlove]

Good morning everyone!

To the crew of the Shepherds, I have good news! You all probably already know, but we've reached Green Breeze Island! With this, I have to say, my first voyage as your captain has been a great success! We wouldn't have made it this far without all of you!

But we can't take this as an excuse to sit around, no no! This island is just like any other! We have to vigilant! Make sure we take care of each other...

[with her next statement, Mana's voice becomes harsher, more demanding]

So my orders are... no one goes off the ship without Alice or I to accompany them. Furthermore, any requests to explore have to be approved by me, first. This is not up for debate.

Second, I feel I should address any other crews out there...

Any vessel that comes within sight of the Shepherd will be treated as hostile. I'm absolutely done not taking any of you seriously... I will protect my crew at any cost.

Let's all have fun on Green Breeze Island, everyone!

[That doesn't sound right.

Marvelous had never spoken with her directly, but this was a girl whose team had helped out the Murderess while they were off battling the Navy on land. They'd defended other people's ships.

This was a girl who was wanting to plan get togethers for people just to get to know each other.

This was... far from right, and looking through replies, it was clear he wasn't the only one who noticed so.]

You're painting a target on their heads.

No, you all are.

This world is dangerous... all worlds are dangerous. Everyone has the potential to have their selfishness, their darkness turned against them!

I can't trust ANYBODY right now! Not even the people I care about! No one except Alice!

I will protect their hearts, at any means possible! No one is trustworthy! No one!

[Yeah. This girl was out of it. And that other one, too...

Something, something...

...wait, what Dog said about things...

...

FUCK. Okay, this was going to require some discussion elsewhere, but in the meantime...]

You think you're the only one who can do it?

Huh.

Somehow, I only see one person being kinda selfish, there.

If someone else is willing to go as far as they need to, then that's great. But I'm not seeing anyone else besides us.

[gokai_red]

Or you don't want to.

What the hell do you think the Murderess is doing right now?

Why do you think we are?

[Mana abruptly ends contact here]

Several minutes later, once he realizes nothing else is coming

[gokai_red]

...

Well, then.

That's sure as hell interesting.
