Good Cause Simulator: future is now/Heart Soldier Senshi (sunday)

[idolpro]

[ You’re in a sleek room full of all kinds of sci-fi dials and knobs. You feel like you’ve been here a long time with these people around you, and that you have a lot longer to go before this is all over.

You can hear the distant sounds of the station creaking due to shockwaves from the fighting outside. What is going on in this galaxy? Well, it’s not very important to you. What’s important is surviving.

You have a job to do. ]

EVENT 1

[idolpro]

Your station, and the people living in it are all rather poor. You can’t stand to see the suffering - something needs to be done, you think. There’s a major shipping lane nearby...perhaps you could take a self defense vessel and relieve those merchants of their goods?

EVENT 2

[idolpro]

While working in the mines, you hear the sound of rushing water on the other side of one of the cavern walls. It seems distant. Do you attempt to use the mining laser to break through?

An asteroid miner, just what I've always wanted.

Re: DISCUSSION

[adorabilities]

[hi fin, your teammate's face twin is here.]

This is kind of like the Princess game, isn't it...?

Re: DISCUSSION

[adorabilities]

Really?

Re: DISCUSSION

[scarvedforlife]

Exploring the outer regions of space with a career that doesn't hold back the possibility for exploration, instead allowing for some wiggle room to pursue your fascinations which are hopefully primarily rock-related, truly an opportunity not to be overlooked!

[ Staring at her for a second then. ]

HSS-version, right?

Re: DISCUSSION

[adorabilities]

Rock related explorations... Huh.

[Anyway! She is definitely wearing HSS clothes, so]

Yeah. You can call me Aster? Uh, to keep... us separated.

Re: DISCUSSION

[asonoficeandfire]

...it might be a little worse.

Re: DISCUSSION

[asonoficeandfire]

I wonder what we're mining for.

Re: DISCUSSION

[adorabilities]

How come...?

Re: DISCUSSION

[asonoficeandfire]

It doesn't sound that exciting.

Re: DISCUSSION

[scarvedforlife]

Technically, most planets are just big rocks.

Aster then! Shall we turn our attentions toward our poor station in need of such attentions? It seems like we may have to get creative with our problem solving abilities here.

Re: DISCUSSION

[asonoficeandfire]

The princess game didn't affect us directly, if I remember correctly. This one will, most likely.

Re: DISCUSSION

[scarvedforlife]

Space epics are no place for sticks in mud.

Water's a precious resource everywhere, right? Shouldn't we go for it?

Re: DISCUSSION

[adorabilities]

Sure.

[though since all the HSS's except her have dropped for this round, she pauses--]

Actually... Why am I with you guys and not Heart?

N-No offense or anything, just... I thought we always played with our teams.

Re: DISCUSSION

[adorabilities]

Oh.

[she frowns.]

That does sound worse. But how do you know?

Re: DISCUSSION

[asonoficeandfire]

The last time we were in space, I think we got burned.

[he just. breathes out]

Ah, water might be a good idea? [is anything a good idea in a game like this?]

Re: DISCUSSION

[asonoficeandfire]

Mm... the set up is similar to other games that have been like this. Paying taxes and surviving as a family over what will feel like a long time.
