Welcome to the Daedalus Rising!
"To stand on a new world and look beyond it to the next one. ”

Hope.
When we venture out into the dark, we do so not in fear. We carry a torch to illuminate our path and unburden knowledge from the shadows of mystery. When we venture into the unknown we make it known, a path from where we were to where we are now. But without those brave enough to venture out beyond the light of our campfire called civilisation, what lays in shadow can look foreboding and ill-intentioned.
The USS Daedalus is a bright light in 2404, a ship designed to go where no one has ever gone before boldly. They follow in the footsteps of their sister ship the USS Icarus which went missing in the same densely packed stars orbiting the heart of our galaxy. The ship's mission is one of exploration, but also one of hope: to find the crew of the Icarus and bring them home, along with the treasure trove of knowledge they'll have collected on their travels.

Hope Punk is a genre of writing where the collective will to overcome the pessimism and apathy of a harsh world is given form in our writing and ideas. We are always strong together working to solve a problem, and uplifting one another in our struggles. And if the world of today and tomorrow need hope, I think we'll bring a goodly supply with us on the greatest adventure we'll write together.

Mission: The Icarus Files
Posted on Sat Jan 6th, 2024 @ 6:32pm by Lieutenant Commander TaijanSuda ch'Thulhu & VixN
Rather than go to Sickbay, Finch retreated to his quarters in order to run his own diagnostic. Medical tricorders were sophisticated devices but their firmware was easily cloned onto other devices. He'd rather not let anyone know that Commander ch'Thulhu had gotten the better of him. He'd rather not remember…

"Huuum..."
Proximal, whose voice box no longer made a loud and grating CLICKING noise every time he spoke, looked from Finch and then back to Jayla.
"Intelligence officer, you say?" Proximal said, folding his upper main limbs under his 'head' again. The fact that he had gotten up off of…

The walk of shame to the bridge where the captain was did not represent Finch's best life. While he was regaining function to his dematerialized and rematerialized hand, it began to burn like fire as the nerves tried to figure out just what the hell had happened to the appendage.…

Archer wanted to be alone. It's not so much that he felt humiliated; it was that he felt humiliation was inevitable. He had managed to bumbled his way through his first rotation on the ship. Chief Teral had even let him run the duty roster that day. If one merely…

"CLICK Ahhh...Captain Maddox, please come in. Come in. Can I offer you anything? A drink? A morsel? This dialysis is especially good."
Proximal raised a limb to which the medical device was attached, pumping out and then returning the machine oil like the blood of the creature. Now without the…

Approximately fifteen minutes after the vandalism first appeared, notes appeared with it.

Whose mother should've had an abortion.

"There once was an engineer who was Martian,
Whose mother should've had an abortion.
He cried so much every day,
His mum died just to get away,
Now his face looks like testicular torsion."
