The Moon Pie Initiative (MPI)

[SymphonianBookworm she/her]

Symph, at the last minute, boards the rocket with a rakish grin on her face. “This is gonna be so fun!”

[Channelknight Fadran]

Fadran does not like moon pies. Too sticky.

But he's at ground control to be supportive of his friend's opinions :)

[Lord Gregorio he/him]

Don't worry. I'm on the rocket. Just didn't have time to say so.

I'm sorry I haven't been keeping track of what's going on, can someone catch me up?

 

[The Wandering Wizard he/him]

The black kitten appeared without a space helmet. He mewled curiously at the shiny balls that seemed to comprise up everyone's heads.

[Wittles he/him]

*le gasp*
Wittles sees the kitten from his station on ground control via the cameras he had placed on the spaceship. He yells into his headset connected to the ship. "That is a magic space kitty! give it pets at all costs!!"

The rocket has been launched with Myself, Rael (Telrao), Symph, Lord Gregorio, and the two space kittens: Kelsier Jr, and the black one (The Wandering Wizard). We are on our way to the jupiter and saturn and as of right now you are acting president

"Alright team, we are on our way, and we will be at Jupiter within a few days, so get comfortable, but not too comfortable."
 

I then give the two space kitties pets and a little bit of catnip @The Wandering Wizard 

[Telrao she/her]

"Uhm... giving cats catnip during spaceflight isn't a good idea..." Rael said. Kelsier Junior's eyes widened as he sniffed the catnip. He mewed loudly and sniffed it eagerly, flehming when he looked up - his tiny pink mouth open.

"Prrrmew?" He asked Rael. He edged towards the small collection of glass vials.

"No.... not yet..." Rael replied, picking him up and cuddling him.

The black kitten's eyes grow huge as he sneefs the catnip. He vigorously licked Cash's hand.

“It’s good to start a trip out with celebration!! In fact….”

I whip out a scrumptious apple pie

”I have made and chilled my family’s recipe of apple pie to eat as soon as we had launched. Mission Control, there is one for you all in the break room fridge labeled DO NOT EAT UNTIL LAUNCH.”

[Wittles he/him]

Wittles wiped the pie crumbs off of the table that had been eaten before the launch. "Yes! I love pie, I can't wait to eat the pie that was specifically meant to not be eaten after launch that I definitely did not eat before launch!"

There is an obligatory joke that must be told here.

I was thinking T minus pi honestly  I think mine is better personally  

A voice Wittles doesn't recognize taps in over the comms system. "Don't worry my good Wittles. I replaced the pie to be eaten after launch with a normal pie. The pie to be eaten after launch is in the backup freezer. I changed the temperature so it should be fine."

"Oh shoot, sorry. I forgot to turn off my voice modifier. Infiltration isn't going as planned, but I should be in soon." The platypus breaks off and through the line the sound of a grappling hook followed by glass shattering follows. "And I'm in. The receptionist was very unhelpful, I'm going to have to put a bad review on when I'm done. I left a device that lets me transmit in each of the rockets and in the launch center. Basically if you want to hear what's going on, press the green button. If you want to hear old audio, press the blue button. If you want to hear future audio, I'm afraid I can't do that. Sorry. The only way to contact me is the one use red button. Besides that, the only thing that can contact me is to come in person. But I have to go. Got to find Bookwyrm. Executive Platypus out." 

Static falls over the line and through the device that he had referred to footsteps sound.

[Lord Gregorio he/him]

*I eat a pie, instantly bringing this rp back to not quite life.

[Cash67]

I awake from hypersleep, noticing that we are approaching Saturn and seeing on the console in front of me that the Jupiter team is currently orbiting Jupiter and preparing for their bake.

"We are a little behind schedule, but that will not stop us! @Lord Gregorio @Shining Silhouette How does the preparation go for the baking of Saturn?"

*turns on comms to Jupiter team*

" @Telrao @SymphonianBookworm How is the baking of Jupiter coming?'

"Ah, so glad you asked! Jupiter, being mostly made of gas, is proving slightly more difficult than turning the moon into a pie. Should we use the pie ray?"

Spoiler

I guess the pie ray is a sort of large hyperspace cannon that can select a group of matter and transform it into pie.

“What they said”

[Telrao she/her]

Kelsier Junior glanced up from where he was playing with Rael. "Mrrew?" He asked poking at a red button with a paw. It was labled "Pie Ray." Rael carefully pulled him away from the button, and he protested, nomming her hand.

"Oh, hush. I'll let you press it once we're in position." Rael said, setting him back on the floor. He licked his shoulder in annoyance, then trotted over to where the black kitten was.

"Purrow?" He asked the black kitten.

@The Wandering Wizard

[Immortal Platypus]

A voice bursts through the intercom.

"I can't find Bookwyrm! I've infiltrated all of NASA and looked all over! He's not there! What are my orders Mr. President?"

@Cash67

[Telrao she/her]

Rael jolted upright and pressed a hand to her earpiece. "Confirm, Platypus, Bookwyrm has gone AWOL?" She glanced out of the thick glass window, studying the deep darkness and glittering stars. We can't help very much if he is AWOL...

"I have found no trace of him in my extensive searching. It is almost as though he's on another planet... But probably not. Still, I'd watch out. He could be anywhere, plotting our downfall. Or maybe just ignoring our existence."

*President Awakes from hypersleep*

*Checks display on ship*

"Well it seems that the mission was successful! Where are we, exactly?"

Spoiler

I believe Telrao is away from the Shard for a while.... we can figure out vice presidency later
