OOC thread: https://legendofkrystal.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=7168Looks like the day got interesting.
About 12:03 local time, Stardate First Day of the Founding Month 2335, as people are bustling around the cramped corridors and huge internal courts of Starbase LK0 looking for food, rest or diversion, a huge black slab of a ship crashed into reality outside of the starbase. It had no identifying markings or, indeed, any features - just a polished onyx cube, hanging in space.
The new arrivals have been the talk of the station for about a day. Nobody knows who this enormous ship belongs to, or what its purpose is. Rumors that it wasn't a ship, perhaps some living being or a strange artefact, were dismissed the moment the Captain of the starbase made a hasty and rushed announcement about the newcomers, saying that they were coming aboard and introducing themselves.
It's now 13:00 of the next day. There's a huge gathering in the main docking bay, where the new aliens are due to land. The Captain is at the front, surrounded by officers and looking nervous as hell. The people who aren't trying to cram themselves into the hangar to witness the events are flocking to their homes and to bars to watch the events unfold on holovision and give their own comments, and whip up their own rumors.

Your superiors seem very interested in the newcomers. As such, you're there in the hangar alongside the Captain. In the distance, you can see a small cuboid detatch itself from the alien ship and float towards the open hangar docking bay. How much have you told your superiosr? What are you hiding from them?

Unfortunately, you've been shafted yet again. Work was meant to be cancelled today, but what that actually means is that you've been left in the offices of the hangar bay next door to do paperwork. it's boring, but nobody's really keeping tabs on you. Dare you risk not filling in this spreadsheet to go see the new aliens?

The networks are buzzing with talk. The small clan of hackers on the station trades rumors and bullshit with each other, and regular users hoover up the drips that the two-credit news outlets can provide on the subject of the new aliens. What's the most interesting thing you've found?

You're supposed to be on guard duty today, preventing people from sneaking into the warehouses and stealing stuff. Currently, you're finding that difficult, as the guard you've been paired with has taken the opportunity to activate your sexual subroutines and is currently fucking your face. His dong was not as impressive as he'd been boasting about, but it fills your mouth quite nicely. Are you concerned with the newcomers at all?

Hah! Everyone's busy looking at dumb aliens. Now's your chance! You've sneaked down to the warehouses on the lower floors and are looking for some goods to steal for yourself to hang in there a bit longer. What are you looking for in particular?
