0003: THE SCIENCE CAPTAIN COMETH!
"Attention all personnel: The Glorious Dream of Uncontested Starfall is performing docking maneuvers. All supply personnel, shift changes, and guests report to Bay 12." There's a brief pause. "Warrant Officer Foster, Science Captain McEngineer says that he has a new toy for testing. Bring ear plugs. All others with appointments, Science Captain McEngineer will see you when docking and resupply is complete. In other news, rain will be scheduled for..."
Bay 12 is huge, over a hundred meters long and easily two hundred feet tall. As the Uncontested Starfall rests, connected with electromagnetic clamps, supply tubes, and force fields, people supplies move in and out of it at a steady pace. The ship itself is visible from outside cameras. Largely red and gold, it resembles a long-necked bird of prey, with swept back wings and plating where Model Ts have been hooked on for long shifts.
If you've already made an appointment with the Science Captain, you're immediately taken inside the ship. Inside, the ship is full of tubes, pulsing with green fluids. The AI aboard speaks in an unrecognizable, chittering language and the floor lights up, guiding you and your host to a lab. The door only opens half-way, there's an axe stuck in it, but you can just barely squeeze through. Inside is Science Captain Urist McEngineer. Four and a half feet tall, stout, heavily bearded, and snoring into his lunch. A mug of something frothy sits next to him and a holographic display of some kind of weapons system slowly rotates above his head.
Thankfully, he appears to have no more axes at hand.
