the_zone | [SEMIOPEN LOG] EXPEDITION 3, ALL TEAMS

Semi-open log for the second expedition, Team 1 (Yanagi-Inui-Akutagawa-Ibu) and Team 2 (Ryuuzaki-Tezuka-Akutsu-Shishido)

How this works: only characters involved in this event can tag in this log.

Pre-Expedition Events (Open until everyone gets tired of it): Training and Packing. These events will involve only training/supply personnel (e.g. Medical for First Aid, Engineering for equipment, Logistics for requisitions, Tachibana for rations etc) and the personnel going on the mission. This will also include everyone hopping on the shuttle to get to the outpost (total 8 expedition folks + one NPC pilot)

Expedition: (Open until everyone gets tired of it): Set up categories/threads as needed, for example :Camping, Digging, More Digging. Other characters can also tag eg if someone makes a comm call, but make sure you ask/inform that person first, and this should not take up significant portions of the log. As always, ask in the Discord if you have any questions.

There maaaay be an event halfway through the expedition :D
Have fun!

Say your goodbyes, do your prep, write your will...

As the final part of his preparations, Yanagi had to see one last person. He'd much rather be saying goodbye to Sanada and Niou, but it was increasingly likely they'd caught some kind of infectious disease, and Yanagi had no wish to start getting sick halfway through the mission.

He walked to Marui and Kirihara's room, and knocked on the door.

"Mr. Marui, it's Yanagi," he said.

Marui was used to getting visitors, but Yanagi was the last person he expected at his door. He half considered pretending he wasn't there, but this was Yanagi, and he'd probably double checked the cameras before he'd come. Ugh.

Not exactly thrilled, Marui went to the door and opened it. "Yanagi, funny seeing you here. What's up?" Hopefully something short and sweet so Marui wouldn't have to fake being pleasant longer than necessary.

Yanagi smiled blandly.

"I am pleased to see you have recovered from your ordeal, Mr. Marui," he said. "I have a task for you. May I come in?"

"Can we talk about it here?" The last thing Marui wanted was this guy in his room. He had nothing to hide, but he still made him feel uneasy.

"If you like," Yanagi agreed readily enough. He didn't much care either way, and was amusedly aware of Marui's wariness, but he still found Marui's actions somewhat impolite. Another strike against Marui in Yanagi's books.

"It is a simple thing - please call your patron at least once a day throughout the mission. Five minutes each would be sufficient, though you should vary the timing."

In case Marui was truly damaged beyond repair by the concussion, he added, "By patron, I mean Mr. Akutagawa, of course."

Of course he knew who Yanagi meant, and his eye twitched at Yanagi explaining it to him like he was stupid. Self-preservation kept him from saying anything about it, however.

"So you're using me to keep Jirou awake. I'll do it, but you guys have to take care of him too. Don't go letting him die, okay?" He liked Jirou, and he wanted him to stick around.

"I'm glad you understand," said Yanagi agreeably. "I will do my best to ensure his safety. There is no 100% when it comes to fieldwork, of course, but Mr. Akutagawa is a valuable asset we will protect."

As compared to certain other people.

Marui nodded. Yanagi’s promise to take care of Jirou made him feel a lot better; at least one of the nerds had some sense.

"Cool. So... Anything else?" As lovely and reassuring as this conversation had been, Marui was still keen to end it.

"That is all," Yanagi said with a nod, not expecting much else of Marui. "Thank you for your cooperation."

"No problem. ...I'm gonna, uh," Marui gestured over his shoulder with his thumb, indicating that he wanted to escape back to his room but wasn't entirely sure he was allowed.

"Please, carry on," said Yanagi, amused. "I'll take my leave." He gave another nod to Marui, then walked off in the direction of the elevators. He had other things to do.
