Some quick Jaunt planning

[senpaidol]

Hi everyone.

As far as I'm aware (I've been trying to keep track but this is a pretty chaotic Jaunt), the Empress of Moths has all of its officer positions filled except for Captain. As that seems like it would be rather important to have in-universe, and I neither ICly nor OOCly want my Interface Officer here in charge of that boat when it's flying, I wanted to put up a quick open planning post to ask:

Who on the Jaunt is interested in being Captain of the Empress?

Reply here if you want your character to have the job; you're likely to get it if the rest of the officers don't think the character is certifiably crazy or otherwise unsuitable for decision-making. If a lot of people are interested and just haven't spoken up yet I guess we can go the anime route and have a talent contest.

Tossing Lapis in for this for now. If someone else really wants it, I can back out.

With two people interested in the part but willing to step back, should we use RNG to determine this? Or would your chatracters be comfortable sharing as co-captains?

On Plurk, I said jade would do it, if she got up to the Empress and found everyone running around like idiots. She has no experience with technology more advanced than a blacksmith's forge, but she's been second-in-command of a small town in crisis for years and knows how to both take advice from people who do know their shit, and make decisions in a hurry.

If someone else wants it, Jade will shut up and follow instructions.

Jade would be happy with this, especially since having two people in charge means that she can sleep and decisions still happen.

And our Naoto-player's life has gotten much busier this week, so it looks like the Captaining position is yours and yours alone! Congratulations.

Now go herd cats in space.
