25 1/2 Love Chains

[verygassy]

[Minako has thankfully recovered from her hysteria upon learning she's now married to the one person she never even wanted to date on the SoL. The piles of eaten ice cream cartons notwithstanding. She still looks a tad angry, and also...a bit determined?]

OK! Its time for me to get down to business! No more crying!

One, 90s Kid, I want a divorce.

Two, someone has stolen my bow - the one I put in my hair - and I want it back. Immediately. Its an important item to me with a lot of sentimental value, and if one of you who's under this spell has shot it out the airlock or set it on fire or whatever, you better hope you can pay for another one!

Three, I remember more of what happened in Vegas now that there are no effects of that Klingon booze that someone said was Diet Mountain Dew...[this is spoken through gritted teeth] Now that that has worn off, I realized something, and this one is super important! Its about the guy who, uh, officiated over our wedding. I can see my soon to be former husband--[again, spoken through gritted teeth]--has neglected to mention it.

[A clearing of the throat.]

His name was Joel Robinson. He knows we're up here. And he told us why too.

But the guy said that's what it was!

[Yeah, he heard the divorce part. But PRIORITIES!]

[verygassy]

....Really.

[...

Actually, knowing 90's Kid...that wouldn't surprise her.]

[liefeldisgod]

Yeah! The Klingon guy totally said it was Diet Mountain Dew!

[verygassy]

....................

[Thanks for proving her point, 90s Kid.]

[liefeldisgod]

[aaaaand awkward silence. He really has no idea what to say to this.]

[virtualunknown]

Is that so? Is he working with the scientists?

[verygassy]

Nope! He actually used to be the guy up here before Mike.

[virtualunknown]

Really? What happened to him?

[verygassy]

He got off.

[virtualunknown]

Did he tell you how?

[optimistickey]

Hmm...your bow was red, wasn't it? [He hopes it wasn't Riku...]

[That last part catches his attention.] Wait, he knows why?! What is it?

[verygassy]

Yup!

He said he did it!

[optimistickey]

Wait, he did? But...why?

[verygassy]

Because he said he didn't want Mike to be all alone up here. So he made a device to bring people here!

[optimistickey]

Ohh, I guess that does make sense.

It's a device? What kinda device?

[dadandgone]

Wait, you met a guy who says he knows why we're up here? Did he tell you anything else like how or for how long?

[verygassy]

Yeah. Joel said it was because Mike was up here all by himself.

[dadandgone]

So we're here to keep him company or something? Or...help with the riffs I guess since that's what HE'S up here.

What else did he say?

[verygassy]

Actually...he said the thing which brings us to the satellite is actually here, on the ship.

[dadandgone]

Huh. Interesting.

Guess we better start looking then.

[thirteenth_brat]

So... wait a minute. Not only did you manage to get married in a place where unexpected weddings seem to be common, but the guy that was up here before Mike officiated?

[verygassy]

Yup!

[thirteenth_brat]

If things can get stranger, I'm not sure I want to know how...
