Finally, the blasted beeping had gone away. All the stress over the mystery marble and being rejected over Moonlight Maria had sapped Dr. Inosilicate’s energy and reminded him that ah, yes, he has a body which requires food.
At least there’s always his good friend the bacon cheeseburger! [+1 5FP Bacon Cheeseburger]

Alas, the moment he opened his mouth to take a bite a brand new beeping started. Apparently he was being summoned immediately to the bridge… if he could find it that was. Why did this ship have to be such a blasted maze?

By the time he got there, Dr. Ino was decidedly fabulously (or, rather, embarrassingly) late. Everyone else was gathered around the comms panel; Sol only shot him a tiny glare as he joined the group.

“So what’s the new beepification about?” Dr. Ino asked casually, bemoaning the cheeseburger he wasn’t able to eat.

“We’re receiving a distress call,” Ember said, pointedly not looking at him, “Which I wanted to run by all of you to see if we were up for responding.”

Kika frowned, fidgeting with her star-marble in her pocket. “I mean, we might have other problems too…”

“Or maybe it’s two birds with one stone? Help someone and solve our own problems” Dr. Ino suggested with an odd, lopsided half smile. “Let’s hear them out.”

Everyone shrugged. Ember pressed play.

This is the SS Furzetuft. My name is Captain [garbled noises] and my first mate was supposed to meet me at the nearest asteroid station. However, the shuttle they were on seems to have disappeared off the map… please, I can’t look for them alone.

[An NPC, Furzetuft, has asked for your help in finding their missing friend! Will your crew help them or leave them be?]

☆ explore writing (optional):
‘Nothing could get much better than this!’ thinks Clementine as she glides through city streets, the lights on the frames of her skates leaving neon trails as she goes, a shine much at home in the vibrant streets of Dynama city.

Something catches her eye as she zooms past, a blank wall, prime real estate for the piece that’s been lingering in her brain, she shifts her feet coming to a stop with a powerslide and turning back toward the wall, only to find an unfamiliar person standing there, in front of the wall, her wall, the wall she specifically turned back to paint.

Angered, or rather mildly offended, by this development, Clem rolls up to watch them, their red hoodie obscuring their face as they lay precise lines upon the canvas of wall, its colorful and fast, a well planned out and clearly practiced throwie that fit the space perfectly.

Briefly mesmerized, Clem snaps back, remembering she had something to be mildly inconvenienced and mad about, “Hey! I was gonna paint that wall!”

The hoodie’d figure jumps, spray can nearly flying out of their hand as they whip around to face her, “Well maybe you should have got here first, then.”

Clem makes an annoyed face, she was there first! Well, kind of- but it wasn’t her fault that some swift stranger managed to get there in the minute she took to turn around! She opens her mouth to begin her tirade upon the poor stranger, but they beat her to it, “And warn a guy before you startle him half to death! You could’ve made me ruin my lines!”

“Ruin your lines!” Clem fumes, “You ruined my entire plan! I’ve had a piece in my head for weeks that would have been perfect there.”

“So what! Are you saying my work is a waste of space?! How rude!” He shouts

“I’m not saying that at all!!” she shouts back, “It’s a lovely work and utilizes that space perfectly well!!”

“Thank you for the compliment!” he gasps in a breath around the yelling, “Also why are we still shouting!!!!”

Clem lets out something between a cough and a giggle, then doubles over laughing, “Sorry, sorry, that’s my bad, I think I just wanted something to be mad at.”

“It’s no problem,” he laughs back, “I like your skates, I’m Teijo.”

“Clementine,” she smiles, extending a hand, “but my friends call me Clem.”

He shoots her a lopsided grin, a missing incisor creating a childish gap, “Well I should probably finish this then.”

She nods in reply and leans back on a nearby bike rack, watching Teijo finish his work. He’s quite good at this, his line weight is even and his fill gradients smooth, it’s impressive how fast he works, finishing off with highlights leaving a shiny, red ‘Teijo’ on the wall.

He stands back to admire his work and picks up his skateboard, turning back to Clem to ask, “There’s a pretty good boba shop around here, wanna go?”

“Oh, yeah, sure!” She replies, pushing off the bike rack, “I’ll follow your lead!”

He smiles and drops his board, hopping on and kicking off.

The two of them cruise a couple blocks, occasionally slowing to toss up a tag or admire a piece.

Graffiti is everywhere in Dynama, the city’s commitment to expression and artistry practically ingrains it in the culture, to ban graffiti would be to kill the spirit of the city. Of course there’s a code to these shows of artistry, you can't go around covering up just anyone’s work, but for the most part anyone with a pen or a spraycan can get ‘up’ in these streets.

It’s one of the many things Clem loves about this city of hers, it’s all about expression!

Teijo slides to a stop in front of her and she follows suit, admiring the scribbled names on the doorjamb as they walk into the boba shop.

Teijo casually tosses down a couple dollars on the counter, proclaiming “The usual, please.”

“Yeah, yeah,” comes a disgruntled voice behind the counter, as Clem is assessed by judging green eyes, though that judgement is pretty bold from someone wearing a shark hat, Clem thinks, “What do you want new blood?”

“I’d like a-”

“Yeah, no, you don’t,” they dismiss, taking the cash right out of Clem’s hand “one orange-cream coming right up.”

“What?”

“You’ll love it,” they deadpan, “get out of my face and sit down.”

Frazzled by the interaction, Clem joins Teijo at the counter bar where he sits, “What even was that?”

“Oh, yeah, that’s like their whole deal,” he explains, “Eun just knows exactly what drink you’ll like, they’ve never missed with even one of my friends.”

Clem isn’t exactly sure what expression she’s making, but clearly it’s doing all the talking it needs to as Teijo bursts out laughing upon seeing it, “Just trust the process, ok?”

“Whatever you say, dude.”

A few minutes later Eun sets drinks before each of them, Teijo’s a vibrant purple and her own an orange color with a creamy foam on top.

She takes a sip and is delightfully surprised to find that Eun was right, it was just what she wanted, to think she was about to order some strawberry-kiwi concoction.

“See, you just gotta trust them,” Teijo chuckles, seeing her delight, “now come on I know a good spot to watch the trains!”

“Seems you ‘know a place’ for everything,” she comments, as they head out.

“Yeah , something like that I guess.”

“So, what do you just plan on dragging me around the whole city or something?” She jokes.

“I mean, you can leave whenever you want, Clem.”

She considers it, skating backwards to face him and slyly smiles, “Nah, I wanna see where this is going, lead the way.”

They skate a couple blocks up Gerard avenue to a park overlooking the river and the train station on the other side.

They sit there at a bench for a while, making small talk and sipping boba while admiring the art on the trains.

Everything was chill as the sun started to set, casting warm hues across the sky, a wonderful way to end a wonderful day, surely there was nothing that could possibly go wrong.

…

It was just then that everything went wrong.

The sky splits open with a bright cyan glow as hundreds of yellow lights fly up from their source, a skyscraper in the financial district across the river, one well known for its unique architecture, the Grey corp headquarters.

“What the hell?”

Clem looks to Teijo in shock, and finds that he is equally as befuddled.

A hum sets in as the lights spread throughout the city, flying right above them, they stand from the bench ending up back-to-back as the lights land before them.

The angular bodies of metal are painted in yellow and black with white upon their necks and arms, their singular eyes glow red while their bodies emanate yellow from every seam, insectoid wings sprout from their backs beating with great speed to raise the robots from the ground.

“Please surrender your paints and roller blades, skates, or boards, all forms of skating and vandalism are now strictly prohibited as ordered by the new mayor of Dynama.” A robotic voice commands.

At that same moment Clem feels her phone vibrate in her pocket and whips it out flipping it open to a yellow screen, behind her Teijo does the same with his.

The yellow screen displays the Grey corp logo, which fades out to a podium branded with the Dynama city seal and the Grey corp logo, behind the podium a fancily dressed older man steps up, papers in hand.

‘*Good evening citizens of Dynama*’ the man begins, ‘*I am Amelius Grey, CEO of Grey corp.*’

“What the hell is Amelius Grey doing making an announcement at the mayoral post?”

“I don’t know, I have a feeling it has something to do with these robots though.”

‘*Today we as a city will be taking a vital step forward for our economy and culture*’

Several slides of graffiti are shown as he continues, ‘*For years our streets have been plagued by gangs of roving youths defacing our city and terrorising businesses.*’

‘*Tonight that all changes,*’ a grand image of the very robots standing in front of them is displayed, ‘*Tonight we introduce our new leap forward in law enforcement technology, meet the Grey corporation’s Bedlam Elimination Enforcers, A.K.A the B.E.E.s.*’

‘*These B.E.E.s will serve to remove the newly illegal vandalism from our streets, in accordance with the ‘Clean Dynama’ act passed just this morning, as well as removing any criminals that get in the way of the enforcement of the act.*’

Amelius gestures toward another person standing to his side, ‘*To introduce this new innovation, the chief engineer of Grey corp, Amelio Grey.*’

Just as the man with a smarmy expression takes the podium Clem flips her phone shut, “Enough of this, Teijo, run.”

He glances back to her, “I know a place.”

“Then let’s go,” she pockets her phone and takes off just after Teijo does, they narrowly dodge one of the BEEs trying to grab them.

Rushing down city streets, they spot the BEEs taking spraycans, markers, and skates from anyone who had them.

It was only a matter of seconds before they were being chased, and despite their best effort, manpower could only get them so far against robots with boosters.

As Teijo sends it though a corner ahead of her, Clem feels something wrap around her skate just as she begins to turn, causing her to stumble and fall, scrambling on the asphalt as the BEEs pull back on her.\

“Teijo! Just go!” She shouts as she sees him glance back.

He hesitates, but starts moving again, Clem at least feels relieved that she could act as a distraction to let him escape, but as stupid headstrong guys often do, he grabs a hose off a nearby building and turns back to her.

“What are you doing, go!”


“They’re robots right?” Teijo asks rhetorically, “Water and electricity don’t mix!”

He presses down on the handle of the hose, spraying a jet of water out at the BEEs, unfortunately, all this manages to do is get the BEEs- and Clem- wet.

“Teijo! You idiot!”

He stands there dumbly, slightly defeated by his foiled plan, “I- uhm, I really thought that would work.”

“Just run, dude!”

Right before he could start doing something stupid again a mysterious figure swoops in. Donned in a violet hood, they fly in from a rooftop, leaving streaks of purple light in the sky behind them.

They drop down upon the BEEs, landing square on the neck of the one dragging Clem across the ground, swinging their other leg around the thwack it in the head, somehow causing the line to retract.

Clem scrambles to stand, turning back to watch her savior as they brawl with the BEEs, they manage to take down all three that had been chasing the pair.

The savior then turns to the two of them and calls out, “You two, some with me, those BEEs won’t stay down for long, c’mon.”

They race off, not activating whatever booster had left the light trail before, allowing the two to keep up.

“This way, two blocks up then hang right,” the savior guides, weaving through cars and pedestrians as they go.

The group turns the corner and the savior brings them to a stop in front of a big cyan door, scanning a keycard to open it.

The two stand behind them, dumbfounded by the series of events that had just occurred, the savior turns around, glaring at them through their goggles, “so are you coming in or not, I don’t have all day.”

“Right,” the two of them say in near unison, then move into the door, entering a small room that appears to be some sort of freight elevator.

The savior presses a few buttons and the elevator starts moving, going up.

They stand in awkward silence for a moment before Teijo asks, “Thanks for the save, but where exactly are we going right now?”

“Headquarters, don’t worry about it.”

“Y’know, with all due respect, I am now worrying about it.”

“Oh my god,” they say dramatically, “Aether will explain when we get there, just chill out, kid.”

“I don’t even know you lady.”

“My mom always told me not to talk to strangers,” Clem adds half jokingly, “She also said never to go to a secondary location.”

“You are both insufferable,” the savior groans, removing her mask and goggles, “For your information, my name is Violet, this is the Vision Society, and you can leave whenever you want to.”

With that the elevator dings and the doors open into a large atrium lined with windows. Violet herds them toward a series of gates, scanning her badge and holding one open for Clem and Teijo to go through.

‘*Welcome back Vi,*’ a crackly voice comes through a radio on Violet’s belt, ‘*We're waiting for you in the panel room.*’

“Yeah, yeah, I’m on my way,” she replies into the radio, continuing to strut forward through the lobby.

She opens a door and ushers the teens through into a large conference room full of people, “take a seat, I’ll see you later, maybe.”

They sit among the crowd, it seems to be almost entirely teens and young adults, most holding skateboards or rollerblades.

Clem takes a moment to remove her own blades, just as someone starts speaking.

A young man with resemblance to Violet stands ahead of a projector screen, which shows a very default looking powerpoint titled ‘Vision Society, who we are and why you should join.’

“Hello, everyone,” the man begins, “I am Aether, the training coordinator here at the Vision Society, and I am sure none of you expected to be here today.”

Aether fidgets with his hands as he speaks, clearly nervous about presenting, as though he didn’t have the time to memorize his script, “as you all know, Grey corp has released BEEs upon the city, each and every one of you were attacked by these BEEs.”

“But you resisted their enforcement,” Violet takes over, “Fighting back for your right to expression in this city, making a brave stand for the same thing we stand for.”

The slide switches on the screen revealing a word at the same time that both presenters speak it, “Vibrance.”

“Vibrance is what brings our city together, without it, Apathy will prevail,” Aether explains, “This would destroy the hope and joy in the city and allow Grey corp total control over the hearts and minds of civilians.”

“You have been selected for your particular skills with vibrance,” the slide swaps to several images of graffiti, Clem recognises one as her own work and one as Teijo’s from earlier, “your dedication to spreading art on the streets of Dynama caught our eyes, and we invite any one of you to join us here at the Vision Society to continue spreading vibrance and fighting apathy as Grey corp tries to take down expression in the city.”

An air of hesitation smothers the room and many stand to leave until about half of the original population remains.

“Ok,” Violet begins once people stop leaving, “those of you that remain will be grouped up for training, thank you for your help.”

Teijo and Clem listen and watch as groups of three to five get pulled from the room, each group walking out with a Vision Society member, their designated trainer.

By the time their names are called only a handful of people remain, and the pair are grouped with three other people around their age.

Violet collects the group of five, bringing them to another room, its walls lined with all sorts of gear.

“Each of you grab a boostpack,” she gestures at the one on her own back, “You’ll need one to outrun those BEEs.”

“And again,” she emphasizes, “Welcome to the Vision Society.”

Opted in for death?: No

Bovineleg had to leave, the large rabbit they caught needed to be taken back anyways. Along the way a charming familiar face greeted him. The fluffy and shy Cocotabby was quick to inquire about the party's location. Bovineleg's thin body struggled to carry to the large piece of prey and yet determination sparkled in his eyes. “Just ahead, a few strides or so.” He mewed through a muffled jaw. Cocotabby nodded, dismissing himself as he dived into the shrubbery around him.

Maybe it was the revenge path of the stick that poked Frostedsilt beforehand but the question of following the snake scent wasn’t up for debate. Her large thick pelt bounced as she angrily pressed on. Beanie was delayed in realizing she was even hurt, but he still stumbled after her wanting to help out. “Wait up!” He called out, tripping over his own paws. The scent of a slippery snake would be hard to follow but Mrs.Fluffy & Gorgeous demanded that she would find the predator! After all, they are the line of defense for the clan.

Cocotabby was swift to catch up with the two despite his fluffy proportions. He was quick to spook the two weary travelers why they tried to be stealthy. Creeping up behind them was easy, it was a bit harder to do it unnoticed. His large brown and black pelt blended in with his environment, helping him get mere inches behind Beanie. His chipper tone echoed in his voice as he gave a very gentle “Boo.”

Frostedsilt jumped nearly 3 feet in the air, her hairs all standing up with fear. “YOU DON’T DO THAT!” She spat, quickly batting at the tom. His cheerful smile crept on his face as she angrily collected herself. “We are tracking a possibly vicious predator Cocotabby, breaking our concentration could be life or death out here!” She grumbled as she kept the party behind her as she pushed forward. Beanie looked back to Cooctabby who was clearly holding back the biggest laugh he has ever had. Beanie tried not to smirk and yet his maws lightly curled. Cocotabby broke out into violent laughter alerting probably everything within a 8 foot radius of their location.

Near some water, a small bounty of food and herbs awaits the pair of silent cats. (+1FP bug, +2FP small fish, +3FP frog, +1 burdock root, +1 dandelion, +1 ragwort leaf)

Dorado steps away as Batclaw finishes the last of the gathering, and finds another strange item in the ground. He takes it, shrugging at Batclaw's questioning look. (+1 star’s greetings)

A cat comes rounding one of the tall trees, mumbling about sticks. He gives the patrol a passing glance, and Batclaw catches the words "new explorers... no stick on them..." before the cat disappears. How strange. (Feather of Jay appears! Since the clan does not have a stick, he disappears. No action will make him reappear.)

~Moonlit Clan~
The morning was warm. Warmer than usual. The sun was beating down on the Moonlit Clan. A perfect day for a clan's very first patrol.

Palestar lept to the willow tree and called a meeting for all of the cats. New and old, young and elderly, boy and girl. Palestar climbed up as they all gathered.

"I have called you all here to announce that we will finally be going on our first ever patrol today," Palestar announced to the entire clan. "We will need the strongest, bravest, most courageous cats out there with us. So, I will nominate two others to come with me."

Tensions were high as Palestar thought for a moment. Tails flicked. Ears strained. Paws scraped against the grass on the ground.

"For my first cat, I I'll nominate myself," Palestar announced. "As all of your leader, I deserve to be part of this exciting new journey. I hope no cat takes it to heart that I wish to go."

Cats nodded with Palestar in understanding.

"For my second cat, I will nominate the deputy that I chose. I will be taking Mudstep with me," Palestar announced. The brown she-cat looked shocked. Almost as if she didn't think she would be picked. She quickly climbed up and stood next to Palestar.

"And for my third cat, I will nominate Speckleclaw," Palestar announced. This caused confusion in the other cats. Speckleclaw wasn't the easiest to get along with. He was rude to the other cats. He barely ever saw eye to eye with Palestar and Mudstep. But he was picked anyway?

"I'm not going," Speckleclaw hissed. "Pick someone else. Anyone else. Pick anyone that isn't me. I shouldn't be going."

Speckleclaw knew he wasn't worthy to go. "Take someone else. A better hunter...a better fighter. Anyone but me," Speckleclaw begged. That's something nobody expected to see: the arrogant cat Speckleclaw, begging.

"I picked you to go because you are a good hunter. You are a good fighter. You will be going, whether you like it or not. Now let's go. Meeting dismissed!" Palestar said, happily flicking her tail.

Please make sure to update your explore code accordingly on your future post(s) as well! For ease, the only change to the code is to switch "writer's reply preference" to "patrol type" (select scouting or exploring) from there. More information about this can be found here!
