Now that we're back on shore...

... does anyone have even the slightest inkling why the boat sank?  In terms of causality, I mean.  Did we hit a reef?  Spring a leak?  Did Antarean barnacle geese chew holes in the hull?  And what made the engines stop?  Were they already waterlogged, or was whatever stopped them part of the cause?  And how did the entirety of the crew find out and abandon ship so quickly and quietly?  I mean, honestly, who abandons a ship quietly?

For that matter,why name your ship the Medusa?  But grim for a cruise, isn't it?

It'd be hard to get any sort of diagnosis on the boat when it's at the bottom of the ocean. And if anything was waterlogged before.. well, that's nothing to how it must be now.

What I'm more concerned about is the lifeboat situation. There should have been plenty for at least most of the people on board, if not all of them. So why were there so few when we started to evacuate?

Come on. Even with all the staff using the boats like that, there still should have been more than there were. Not that I'm suggesting sabotage, but it is curious.

I haven't heard any sign of them... do you think maybe they went the other way? Got lost?

Is this going to be one of The Doctor's famed investigations?

Can't wait. I do so love that slightly deranged look in your eye when you're on the scent of something.
chronosexual: (laugh)

[personal profile] chronosexual 2011-07-30 04:35 am (UTC)(link)
You see any other deranged mad men running about?
chronosexual: (cheeky)

[personal profile] chronosexual 2011-08-01 01:08 am (UTC)(link)
That is a fair point, but my statement still stands.

Is there no way that we can investigate this?

Somebody looks fancy.

[identity profile] milestoturn.livejournal.com 2011-07-31 03:05 am (UTC)(link)
This has nothing to do with the subject at hand!

[personal profile] turnedleft 2011-07-31 04:39 am (UTC)(link)
Just a friendly observation!

[identity profile] milestoturn.livejournal.com 2011-07-31 04:44 am (UTC)(link)
We need to stay focused.

[identity profile] milestoturn.livejournal.com 2011-08-01 01:10 am (UTC)(link)
It sounds like you have an idea.

Shall we petition the records?

[identity profile] milestoturn.livejournal.com 2011-08-01 01:31 am (UTC)(link)
If they are honest or not, they will point to the truth. No one can hide the evidence completely.

[identity profile] milestoturn.livejournal.com 2011-08-01 02:30 am (UTC)(link)
The truth will make itself known. We can move on from there.

And why not TELL people the ship's sinking, yeah? Still wondering about the HMS part too.

I keep hoping there's royalty here. Shmoozing princes is fun.

Leave some for the rest of us, would you?
chronosexual: (hm..)

[personal profile] chronosexual 2011-07-31 04:44 am (UTC)(link)
Now why would I want to do that when it's so much more fun to share?

You! Paranoid? I wouldn't believe it.

I know I'm not an expert on ships, or protocols for them, but I am fairly certain there should have been an announcement or a plan for emergencies set in place. There were hardly any life vests on the ship, either.

Would it be in bad taste to say it all sounds a bit fishy?
