a mingle to kick things off

[devoursall]

Monobear has been kicked, the mock murder never happened (edit: or did it...? Your memories might seem a little jumbled...), the first round of refugees has been picked up (sort of), and GETHOMEQUEST 2014 has begun.

IT'S TIME

TO

MINGLE

setting info is here but feel free to make up your own shit, driving this hopeboat is a group effort

Haha! Yes! Jumba has been here since Hope Station launched, although was stuck in brig after little robot bear busted in. [Yeah.] Is okay, though, little robot bear was ejected into space before nothing too bad could happen.

727 is around, although Jumba does not know where she went!

[sweetlynasty]

That's a relief. I don't think anyone's in the mood for Murder Island 2: This Time It's In Space.

Hope, right? I'd guess around her "mom"... or Jimmy. He was almost like her big brother.

[And she also wouldn't be surprised if he'd run into her already, either.]

[prefersevilgenius]

Little bunny girl is mostly computer program right now, so would not be surprised if 727 was visiting computer banks.

[And because gdi I am enjoying making up bullshit about what happened before the start of this mingle...]

Jumba had robot body for little bunny girl, but was unfortunately sacrificed in effort to space little robot bear. Is okay, little bunny girl was connected by Hope Station wifi to computer banks. Jumba will make new robot body soon.

[sweetlynasty]

[MAKES SENSE TO HER.]

New robot body, huh? Hey, if you need a hand with that, you know who to ask.

[She's certainly got the time to spare.]

[prefersevilgenius]

Will definitely let little girl know!

Right now Jumba is continuing work on short-ranged space shuttle had started on before little robot bear tossed him and Pleakley and little rude girl in the brig. Would little girl like to help?

[sweetlynasty]

Sure, why not? Been a while since I've worked on some space travel tech.

Pleakley and "rude girl"?

[For the latter, her mind immediately goes to Madison for who could've earned that nickname. She'll laugh if she's right.]

[prefersevilgenius]

Pleakley is Jumba's little one-eyed one. [You know, the alien in the hula skirt in the picture taped to his computer.] Little rude girl is someone little girl already knows. Jumba has never met ruder.

[sweetlynasty]

Oh, right, from the photo! Your... significant other?

[She can estimate from the pet name and remembering that picture that they're an item, though she would've asked "Girlfriend? Wife?" or "Boyfriend? Husband?" if she knew what gender "Pleakley" was. They were wearing a skirt, but she's not the best judge of that thing when it comes to aliens and doesn't want to assume.

Heloise does, however, chuckle at Jumba's comment about the "little rude girl." Yeah, no way that isn't Madison.]

[prefersevilgenius]

Husband. [Chuckles.] Actually, Jumba was wife, 'Jumbina,' for ceremony. Pleakley's mother came. Was complicated.

[sweetlynasty]

[Heloise can't help herself from chuckling again, with a slight snort in her laugh. She's picturing Pleakley in a suit and Jumba in a wedding dress, a mental image which amuses her as much as she finds it adorable.]

Sounds like it, though I dunno much about alien weddings.
If he's on the board the ship, I wouldn't mind meeting him sometime.

[Honestly, with how much her and Jumba seem to have in common? She's a little curious to see if he's anything like Jimmy.]
