Event: Expulsion
Welcome to our first train event! The IC start is here!
The train will remain in space for the whole of the 24th day and night cycle (ooc: 16/17th August).
During that time:
On the 25th day characters will wake up in their beds as normal, albeit with a small bump as the train re-enters the void and gravity is restored. Hopefully with minimal damage…
If you have any questions just ask below! Have fun!

During that time:
~ There is no power throughout the train. There are red emergency lights above each door and also low level lighting along the floor. Some emergency system clearly is in place as the fridge and freezer still have power to them, as do the machines in the medical bay. Nothing else works though. The ICP screens are all down, though the voice function still works for getting messages around the train.
~ Likewise the water supply has been cut. Don’t worry there is a supply of bottled water in the store room for such an emergency!
~ Whatever emergency system the train is running on right now has managed to maintain the temperature at a safe level. Safe however does not mean comfortable. It is cold. Characters are not in actual danger of freezing but they probably want to wear those extra hoodies and wrap a blanket or two around them.
~ Everything big is bolted down. The beds, the chairs, the tables and the appliances in the kitchen and laundry room are all bolted to the floor or walls. However the small things are not. The crates in the store room are likewise bolted down and the lids to have catches, if they have been fastened by the last person to use them is a different question… The shelves have barriers to stop stock from falling but that doesn’t do much to stop them falling when every way is down. It is quickly apparent what the announcement meant by securing the train. Crockery, cutlery, food supplies, luggage, anything that was loose is now floating free and while it’s not necessarily a problem right now it may turn into one once they re-enter the void. Or if someone nudges a knife in your direction…

Questions?
Re: Questions?
Is the language-translation thingy affected even briefly? Or at all by whatever emergency power the train's running on? Asking for reasons.

There is a very brief moment (where all the systems are critical) where it is down but by the time the announcement about oxygen systems stabilising happens it is up and running again. They are not likely to notice (between the pressure in their heads and their ears ringing) but if they are close to someone else they might realise for a moment they can't understand them.
