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.

[ karkat is just kinda ??? since he has never seen dave express any interest in the kharaa before.... ]

Wait what recording? When did this happen?

[ he hates not knowing what is going on but he has nothing too useful to add here. ]

It was pretty recent, when that guy with the crazy white hair did an exploratory thing? I tagged along.

[ for fun and profit, since he hadn't realized they'd find That Recording that he definitely could translate. ]

Do they all shriek? Also, uh, I did not know that it was classified. Do you guys know what the like...weird noises mean, though? If we run into them, it could help. And like, we seem to run into everything we hear about here eventually. Because we're super lucky that way.

[ Naoko wonders, not for the first time, what exactly is going on in their "base" or whatever it is that they call it. She pushes the thought aside though, as she figures she would rather not know. ]

We don't, no. Usually when they are shrieking at us we end up dead. Any facility that seems to be making any type of breakthrough on research about them gets attacked by the Kharaa army. [ She frowns. ] Of course, there is always the chance that there's information on that that I'm not of a high enough rank to access. War is politics, after all.

[ karkat actually snorts at naoko admitting she might not be privy to more classified junk. it's funny to him... ]

So... that probably means they have spies on the inside or whatever, right? That'll explain how they track those places down. Or they're just smarter than humans.

[ conveniently ignores the fact that the kharaa attack other species besides humans... ]

Well, anything you have would be helpful. You never know, maybe we can figure something out about it? We do have a ton of people with really specialized skillsets, and we'd share back anything we found out.

[ dave is a lying liar who lies, until and unless he figures out how to convince naoko and co to like. maybe not kill some kharaa.

but he's a really good liar. damn him? ]

Dude, I'm standing right here. Why you gotta insult humans 24/7.

Oh, so he normally does that? And here I thought I was special.

[ She smiles for a second, but her expression turns more serious again. ]

How many of you are there, anyway? When you say "a ton" do you mean more than ten, or...

It's more than ten.

[ he gestures at dave. ]

Are you going to give him what he asked for or what.

He does this literally all the time, yeah.

[ despite dating a human? ]

Not sure of our exact count. It's more than ten, like he said, but like...somewhere around a few dozen, maybe?

Hm. That's interesting.

[ She won't dwell on the subject of their numbers though. Still... interesting. ]

There's only one sound bite that I have access to. If my ship didn't crash, I probably could have looked up more for you since we had files there. I'm pretty sure those are all gone now... They were programmed to self delete in case of an emergency. Stay out of enemy hands and whatnot.

[ Naoko plays the audio file. The shrieking can be roughly translated to, "Find them. Find the--" before the audio gets cut off. ] I can send it to you.

[ karkat still doesn't want naoko to know... too much about their base lmao. they may be on friendly terms now but you never know if something might change that later?? ]

Jegus, that sounds awful. [ he glances at dave ] And you think this might actually be helpful?

[ well not anymore he doesn't because it sounds like nothing more than kharaa hunting humans, maybe, unless they're trying to "find" something else, but it was worth a shot and he hums in agreement.

if her ship crashed it's...probably not the one rose wants him to find? dave makes a note to bother rose about this later. ]

It could be. More information never hurt, right? I mean, beyond giving us headaches and a sense of our own mortality, but whatever.

[ Naoko looks between the two of them. The frown's still there, but it looks less serious now and just tired in general. ]

Do you think the Kharaa is here then? All of our intelligence indicate that they haven't made it to this planet yet. And even if they did, the planet would screw them over as badly as it screwed the rest of us. Actually, it'll be even worse for them, because most of the wildlife here wouldn't be their first choice as hosts. Fish can't exactly operate machinery and all.

[ She presses a few more buttons on the datapad before putting it away. ] Unless they find a conveniently placed based filled more than ten, maybe around a few dozen, kids though. That might make things a little easier for them.

Maybe they'll find you guys first. Although at least we have people who can fly, so we'd be more useful than you all. Sometimes I think you made up the other two guys, we never fucking see them.

[ where are they, naoko??? the cat is around!!! what about the rest!!! ]

It's better to be safe than sorry though I guess is what he means.

If they find you guys first, give us a call. Which reminds me...actually this has nothing to do with any of that.

[ he pops a basket of halloween candy out of his sylladex. there are chocolates thanks to their chocolate plants and the people who actually...cook...and rock candy and a bunch of flavored stuff based off what they have. fruity hard candies and some other things. all mostly in halloween shapes?

what does naoko think these guys do all day. ]

Halloween candy from the Halloween candy team, as like. Thanks and Happy Holidays and shit?

[ It says a lot about Naoko that she doesn't blink at all of this appearing out of thin air, but her eyes widen once she sees what it is. This is the happiest she has looked all conversation. Actually, this is probably the happiest she has looked since Dirk complimented the AI she made for them. ]

I can't believe it's already October... Time flies when you've abandoned all hope of ever seeing your friends and family again. [ She picks up one of the chocolates. ] Thanks.

Wow there, tone that all that goddamn sunshine you're emitting here. You're going to blind us with all that positivity.

[ as if he can really judge... karkat glances at dave. ]

Is that all you wanted to say to her or is there some other super secret question you have to let out?

[ having handed over the basket, dave shrugs. ]

Uh...no? I mean, if the other two people - it's two people, right? - don't want to meet us I didn't have a whole lot more to ask...oh, wait, no. Uh, about how you guys got here. Like, do your memories on that all match up?

[ to naoko. ]

To the planet itself, I mean.

Yes? [ Naoko raises an eyebrow. ]

We came here on our ship, which crashed horribly. Is there something wrong with your memories?

That's not important.

[ karkat isn't sure if he wants to explain the whole paradox space shit to naoko?? at least, not unless they absolutely have to. either way he grabs dave's arm. ]

Anything else before we ignore each other's existences until the other party becomes useful again?

[ dave rolls his eyes. WAY TO BE SUSPICIOUS, KARKAT. he covers with: ]

Not all of us were from the same shipwrecks, and it's useful to have, like, more data on how the fuck people crashlanded here. In the event we someday get a ship up and running, it'd be cool if we could avoid whatever-the-hell keeps crashing us, you dig? Some people remember it happening a hair different than others, so we're not sure if it's all the same...event. Thing. I'm not sure how to word it.

[ but he lets karkat take his arm and just loops said arm around karkat's waist. ]

I think that's about it from me, though. Y'all good?

[ Luckily she is used to Karkat being weird at this point. She still looks somewhat suspicious, although that's also the usual look she gives the kids whenever they pop up to see her. Naoko may have gotten a lot more comfortable with them since their first meeting, but she still doesn't entirely trust them.

She, at the very least, seems to buy Dave's explanation enough to just shrug. ]

It was the pulse that shot us down, although I wouldn't be surprised if there's other things bringing down ships here. This planet is special like that. [ She smiles, though it borders on a smirk. ] And we're as good as we can be. By the way, I also sent you guys a list of other items I'd like for you to bring to us if it's in your position. It's just a few simple things like clothes and metals, nothing fancy. We'd appreciate anything you can manage.

[ fuck u guys???

anyway karkat just makes a face. ]

You are so needy. But sure, yeah, if we can [ they totally can they have the technology for this?? ] we'll send shit over.

We'll send some more snacks, too. And cat treats?

[ ok karkat say your final insults because dave just starts floating off the ground. ]

[ Okay, yeah. The flying is still weird. ]

Oh god. Please bring cat treats. Where did you guys even get cat treats? Actually, I don't care, just give us some, thanks.

[ Naoko at least waves them off. ]
