watch out for falling space debris.
who. Anyone and everyone on the station.
what. Two shuttles come through the relay. Only one makes it through intact - and it's the one bringing in the new recruits.
where. All around the station, but most of the action will probably take place on and around the landing pads.
when. Right now.
warnings. General, mass hysteria. Not much else.
It's that time again. Time for that shuttle to come through the relay and bring in a new batch of people that don't know where they are or why. This is something that everyone has gotten used to, and doesn't think much of.
This time, though, something is different. And because no one is expecting it, it catches the entire station by surprise. Two shuttles come through the relay, and while that's more than surprising enough, what happens next, no one is expecting.
One of the shuttles explodes. Out in the dead of space between the relay and the station, it bursts into a thousand smaller pieces. The debris left behind tells nothing of what had been on the shuttle, or who for that matter, but the fact remains that this wasn't supposed to happen.
Which means people are going to wonder why it happened in the first place.
With the newcomers arriving on the station, there's going to be enough confusion going on, but with the shuttle explosion tacked on to the end? It's going to raise some suspicion.
This log is not only for the newcomers to mingle about, but also to gauge reactions about the shuttle exploding. To speculate on why it happened, and generally allow for all kinds of reactions all throughout the station. You can assume that by the time the shuttle with our new characters has landed, news of the explosion has travelled through most of the station. Please see the OOC post for more information.
Have fun, and try not to freak out too much.

"Okay, look, I have no idea what a 'relay' is, but are you telling me you people only have one way of getting between solar systems and it's broken?" She narrows her eyes. "That's ridiculous! There has to be another way, don't you have any psionics?"
The context of the 'whole universe away' thing seems to have gone over her head. She knows she's pretty far from home – that much, at least, is obvious. She's just content to assume that 'a universe away' still means that if she goes in the right direction for long enough she'll cross the Alternian Empire's borders, just that it'll be a long while.

"First of all, I'm not even from here, okay? Like you, I got yanked out of my own universe and dropped here, on this criminal-infested space station in the middle of nowhere. I don't know what psionics are, and I'm not even sure I know what the relays are, but I'll spell it out for you real simple: you're stuck here," Rachel says, clearly enunciating the words, maybe a little more than necessary just to be obnoxious. "You're not the only one. We're from all different universes. And you're definitely not from this one. There are a lot of aliens here, but I've never seen any that look like you."
