[OPEN] October Information Meeting
Who: CALLING ALL PASSENGERS
What: It's afamily meeting Information Sharing Event!
When: October 1st, from the afternoon on.
Where: The Library!
Warnings: None? (Will add if necessary)
Notes: The information learned here can be osmosed by any character on the ship, regardless of whether or not they actively tag into the event. Consider this a game lore catch-up! Top-level comments don't have to be exclusive to the library,; if your character is likely to run off to the bar for a drink, or contemplate jumping off the bow, then you can include that prompt here as well! Basically a catch-all post for any "reacting to our existential crisis" posts you want!
The Setup:
A few nights beforehand, everyone Skulduggery's ever texted will receive a simple message:
The Library:
There are too many people to comfortably fit in one room, which will make it difficult for people to discuss the information that's been gathered. The library, thankfully, has anebulously existing front desk area that is... currently unattended by any ghosts? Weird.
Everything is mostly the same as you'd expect it, except the majority of the chairs have been pulled towards the front. A low table is settled there as well, with every copy of Battle Royale and Gil's Diner set out to read.
The front desk has an array of memo notebooks and flimsy Eterna branded notepads strewn across it, along with a variety of writing implements. As the day goes on, these notebooks and pads will be filled with more and more insights from other passengers.
There's a black binder sitting there too; this is full of the information Skulduggery specifically has to offer.
The Meeting:
"Meeting" may be an overstatement, when all's said and done. There's a bunch of information available to read, and a place to discuss and process with others. Some people may choose to try comforting those who are visibly upset. Others may want to read some of the books that inspired their previous ordeals.
At some point, the realization that the buffet is the only working restaurant will spread, and food may be brought down for an awkward potluck. Still others may begin to bring liquor into the library. It's really dealer's choice here, as far as coping mechanisms go.
One thing that can be taken away from the atmosphere of the room: be very certain you want to learn whatever's in that black binder.

The Setup:

A long overdue information-sharing session will be held all day in the library. It's time we all get on the same page regarding our situation. 1st of the month (is it October already?), attendance is encouraged. Please forward to interested parties.
That's how word spreads for the most part; but there are also some neatly printed notes pinned up in heavily traversed areas with the same simple news: Discussion of Our Situation: 10/1, Library.The Library:

I, uh. Grew up pretty rough, too, for what it's worth. Bullied for being the dumbest kid in class, for having clothes with holes in 'em, for having next to nothing for lunch some days. Ma was working two jobs while putting herself through college. Didn't have a father.

[ And somehow that doesn't sound as badass as it used to. He felt big and tough when kids were running away from him on a daily basis. Now? Not so much.
He sighs. He was technically the dumbest kid in his class, too, wasn't he? He was certainly the oldest. ]
I'm still in middle school. Got held back twice.
no subject
[It's sincere commiseration hours here. Not pity, not lectures, just...someone who kinda does get it.]
no subject
[ It's legible, but it's sloppy. It looks like a kid a lot younger than him wrote it. And he's still willing to make posters and send out messages in bottles, but only because he isn't expecting any critique for it here. ]
I've had people offer me lessons here but I don't want them to laugh at me or get angry if I'm not fast enough.
no subject
[That's not even bullshit, Bash genuinely doubts his own abilities that much.]

[What, was he expecting Bash to argue?]
You get to choose what you spend your time here doing. How's that going for you? What have you been up to?
no subject
[ And sometimes he gets dragged to parties. ]
This place is less boring than the last one I was stuck in, at least.
