URSULA CONTACT
URSULA is usually available for brief contact. Consider this her inbox. Although she may be busy ICly doing something at the time, she can usually spare some time to answer something.

Alternately, you can link to a thread where she is being called upon. Note that she may ignore these calls or contacts dependent on her mood. Don't worry if she ignores you once or twice, as she will sometimes comment on open posts or make broadcasts to everyone.

Please label the day and time of the contact in the subject header.

For those curious, her voice sounds similar to this.

If any players wish to contact Naoko and her group, they are free to use this page. They will have to take the three hour trip by air or sea as there is currently no long-range communication in place for them. Please specify in the header that it is Naoko you are trying to reach and not URSULA, in this case, as well as labeling the date you are contacting the group.

[ P Diddy chirps excitedly, and does not take over Dirk's body.

Granted, he is definitely not as relaxed with this bump as he is with when he does it with Dave, like he is still waiting for Dirk to attempt to like... kill him, or something? For some reason humans keep doing that? Why won't they just submit easily, geez. ]

We will accept the Dirk as a friend. Will he be joining you in the future?

[parodeity]

[ dave is working on the whole "submit" and "friendship" deal ok this is why he needs help. but at least the friend thing seems to be working even if dirk is The Dirk. dave thinks that sounds funny so he isn't correcting that turn of phrase? ]

Sometimes, maybe. He might not come out all the time, but if he wants to come I'll bring him out. I've taught him a bunch of line dancing, too, so he can join in a few dance offs?

[splinten]

[Dirk doesn't know all of what Dave says but he knows enough to know that he should show some Sweet Moves (TM). So he does. Thank God Dirk kept asking Dave to teach him to dance??]

[subnauticmods]

[ A few of the Kharaa immediately join in on the dancing. If only their existence wasn't a top secret, because this would make a great Creepvine. ]

Will you be bringing your other friends? Will they become our friends too... or not?

[parodeity]

I'd like to, if you wouldn't mind, sometime. For Thanksgiving we could have a party with more people? But like. I'd like you to be friends with my friends. And I promise to not bring anyone who wouldn't be. Sure, some of them are assholes, but I'm not gonna bring people who'll shoot first, okay?

[ or he will timestop them trying, tbh ]

[splinten]

[Dirk is definitely thinking this should be a creepvine? When the dancing is done he holds his fist out to bump the fists (??) of the Kharaa who danced with him? Look he has no doubt about Dave teaching every single Kharaa some variation of a fistbump that works for their physiology.]

[subnauticmods]

[ He gets fistbumped by three Kharaa at the same exact time. ]

... Okay! We trust you, Dave. And we will learn to trust the Dirk too. And your other friends!

[ Unless they shoot first because then W E L P. ]

[parodeity]

[ DAVE WOULD NOT ALLOW ANYONE TO COME UNLESS THEY PROMISED...NOT TO SHOOT...because god ]

Then in that case next month we'll chat about Thanksgiving. Which is like, an American holiday - well Canada does it but they do it in a diff month and like I don't even know why actually but fuck it I'm American and I don't think anyone on base is Canadian - and basically you get together with all your friends and family and eat a bunch of cool food and talk about how thankful you are to know one another, or something?

[splinten]

[He glances over at Dave, because while "very few words" + "general knowledge of Dave" is probably meaning he actually understands more of this conversation than maybe even the Kharaa would, his language is still very limited. Sometimes he has a hard time picking out which screech Dave is making. He did at least pick up the holiday Dave's talking about? Because obviously he would have asked Dave to tell him what he'd use for it, in terms of screeches. So he has to give his input in English.]

You might mention that it's billed as being about different groups of people coming together peacefully. Up to you if you include the genocide parts.

[Like. He sees downsides to that part.

He's also brought up the 'okay Dave, but you realize no one on base but you will be able to talk to the Kharaa' issue when they discussed it earlier so whatever.]

[subnauticmods]

[ All of that sounds extremely fake to P Diddy, but okay. Perhaps this is why humans are so easy to conquer? They spend all their time doing these types of activities instead of taking over the universe. ]

What is the Dirk saying?

[ Normally he would have asked more about Thanksgiving, but the whole not knowing what the unknown party is saying is more important. ]

[parodeity]

Sorry, he's like way behind in your language 'cause I've only had a week teaching him. But he caught enough of what I was saying to point out I left out the holiday is also about different groups of people coming together peacefully.

[ WHICH...HE FORGOT TO MENTION...BECAUSE HE'S A DUMBASS... ]

So it'd be kinda a good time to meet people?

[splinten]

[vague thumbs up of assuming Dave passed the message on]

[subnauticmods]

[ P Diddy seems to relax again after the message has indeed been passed on. ]

We will meet your friends on Thanksgiving. I can't wait to feast on more candy.

[ The Kharaa all start excitedly shrieking at the mention of candy. ]

[parodeity]

Hopefully by then Dirk'll know more Kharaa, and so will everyone else. And like, I know we have a ton of kickass chefs who will whip you up some new candies? And other food. But yes definitely candy, which is a thing friends totally give to one another.

[ i guess this is one way to make peace fuck it ]

[splinten]

[Okay he knows what that word means and—]

Have you asked them what they need to be healthy?

[subnauticmods]

[ Dave has probably not asked that. Which is probably why the evil conquering aliens are now addicted to sweets. ]

What is he saying now? Is it about the candy?

[parodeity]

Kinda. Dirk worries about what I eat all the time, because he thinks I'm not healthy enough. He wants to know what it is you guys need to eat to stay healthy, 'cause he thinks I probably have not asked, which I have...not. So, uh, this is me asking?

[ to dirk, in english: ]

No, but just did.

[splinten]

[Dirk puts his face in his hands because now he has to look after the health needs of an entire collective.]

[subnauticmods]

[ Thanks for adopting the Kharaa, Dirk.

P Diddy considers the question. ]

That depends on our host. For example, if the Dirk became a host, anything that makes him healthy would work for us.

[parodeity]

Huh. Do you know what stuff would make the hosts you guys have now healthy? If not I guess we could ask some of our doctors?

[ he just slides into providing dirk with a telepathic translation of shit which he should have done to start with. ]

[splinten]

[Thank you, Dave, that would have been easier earlier yes.

Also please do not consider the Dirk as an example host???]

[subnauticmods]

[ Too late. The Dirk is an example host. ]

Hmm... we are not sure! The species of Iniidae are not on any known databases that exist off planet. We can only speculate based on what we have seen from watching them in the wild. If you give us more time, we can research this more carefully, Dave!

[parodeity]

If you can, that'd be cool. You guys need to take care of yourselves and stay healthy, okay?

[ advice dave himself does not take ]

[splinten]

We can give them the information in our databases on Red Eyes.

[To help them stay healthy. Sorry Kharaa you get this now.]

[subnauticmods]

[ They seem slightly confused by this since thing like taking care of themselves and staying healthy isn't normally very high on their list of things they need to do. ]

[ To Dave: ] What did he say? [ And then to the both of them, even though Dirk can probably only catch a few words: ] Normally we do not have to worry about things like health. We are many off this planet.
