So, we've got a bunch of new people. If we haven't met yet, hey. I'm Jason Lee Scott. In the field, you can call me Amp. But Jason's fine pretty much anywhere else. It's great to meet all of you. I'd turn this into a general introduction and powers announcement thing, but I think I'd hurt Grif's feelings if I stole his gimmick.
But we are gonna get to know each other outside of the regular Legion-mandated training. Don't worry about that. See, I've been saving up my money, what I haven't been sending to charities supporting recovery efforts on Naltor and Winath...
[And here he pauses for a moment to insert links to information on those charities.]
...Yeah, anyway. Like I said, saving stuff there, and I've got enough to afford a three day retreat. I mean, last time we went to a beach and it was great, and free, but I figure one or two of us have had enough of swimsuits for a little while. So this time, I figured that I'd put it up for vote.
I'm looking at three choices here. No pictures, we'll let some things about this be a surprise.
Option one: Plain ol' camping in the woods. I can get us a reservation in Yellowstone. Apparently Old Faithful isn't quite so faithful anymore, but we've still got cliffs and trees and all of that. We can chat, maybe do a bit of training while we're there, explore, all that. It'd be great.
Option two, and this one is neat: There's a campsite that's actually on an asteroid. One that's got two others in a stable orbit around it. Apparently Brainiac 3 used to use it as a lab or something to work in private, but the Coluans have confiscated everything after they died and all we're left with is three huge asteroids with low level gravity and an atmosphere. They promised me that there aren't any killer robots. [They actually seemed a little offended that it had been a concern.]
Option three could be a bit risky, but it still sounds cool. This one mad scientist made this hollowed out planet and filled it with an artificial ecosystem. It's got a fake sun, atmosphere, giant mushrooms... It's a little humid, but there's already some buildings, bathrooms with showers, and cooking sites set up, complete with, uh. 'Primordial beast repelling sonic fields'. Probably not going to be too much of an issue if something gets curious, though. Gravity's going to be a little higher than Earth's, though. 1.2 Gs.
So, uh. Yeah! Vote for which one sounds good and I'll set everything up for us to get on a week or two from now. Same as last time, you guys just get a bit of say in it now. We can set up campfires, cook some s'mores, play some games, get to know each other when there isn't a big crisis going down... It'll be fun!
