[ Lois had been on the ship for a few days and she already had more questions than answers. She should lay low and stay out of trouble or ask Clark to do this for her... But that wasn't her style. And considering recent revelations, she'd rather do this on her own.

Despite the temptation, she didn't snoop around upon arrival - instead choosing a more direct approach. She starts the feed in her room, seated at her desk. ]

Hi, most of you probably don't know me. My name's Lois Lane and I have a question for all of you, or a few I suppose. I'm a journalist back home so call it a habit, but I'd love to speak with whoever's willing. Either on or off the record, considering my job seemed to find a way to transfer itself here. I'd preferably like to meet in person, but I can be flexible. Nothing too serious - more about backgrounds, how long you've been on the ship, demographics to establish a baseline. A few questions about your experiences while here if you're willing to share.

[ Her more in-depth questions are something she'd rather keep off the network, at least the ones she'd figured out so far. This process was going to have to be organic based on responses. Speaking of keeping things off the network and getting it out of her head... ]

Also, does anyone have any actual paper and either a pen or pencil they might be willing to part with until I can get a supply of my own? I'll find a way to pay you back. Thank you all for your time and possible assistance.

[ Seems fitting to throw that in there right before she ends her feed, try and work towards building up her own resources as best she can. The message is short and to the point, she'll deal with trying to get interviews with the Captains once she's got a bit of a firmer grip on the real situation.

Hopefully.]

[When you work for a secret government agency, the press isn't exactly a friend. Peggy's seen both the good and the harm that can come from their digging. The information Lois is asking for is honestly what she's been trying to gather herself. Learning about the others trapped here, hoping to find a common element that might explain why they were the ones chosen to be brought here? All things she's been trying to piece together. She isn't any closer to an answer than she was a month ago, but that didn't mean there wasn't an answer to be found.]

Will the information you gather be public? I'm willing to speak, but I'm also curious to learn what others have to say.

Of course. Ultimately I'd like to compile my own database to try and find patterns in all of our backgrounds among other things.

[ And the more willing people were to share, the faster this might go. ]

I have no plan to hide any of this.

The patterns are what I'm most curious about. I find it highly unlikely that this isn't all related in some way or fashion, the trick is just determining what that thread is.

[But she had been operating on the down-low. She can only hope that enough people want the same answers as her and offer their own side of things.]

Exactly. [ While it wasn't something she completely ruled out, it was nice to find a like-minded individual when it came to finding answers. ] And since that happens to be something I specialize in, I'm cautiously optimistic that in time we might be able to get to the bottom of it.

[ She doesn't want to say it, but it's going to take a lot more data and time to get answers. ]

I can only hope we aren't the only two on this ship wanting answers. [And she doubts they are. Even in a case like hers, where she literally got to be reunited with a lost love, the situation itself didn't set well with her. She didn't like being trapped, and she was sure everyone else on the ship felt the same way. If they could have answers, anything that might shed some light on this mess, it would help.]

Is there a time in particular that you would like to meet?

I don't think we are, honestly. The response so far has been pretty positive. [ She voice it if Peggy won't. It'd be ridiculous to think everything and everyone on board was going to cooperate and there'd be nothing too dangerous. There's no way that every single person they brought on board was perfect back home. They wouldn't have a hold if that was the case. ]

I should be free in... [ Hold on, time to consult her notes. ] Two hours? Otherwise, I'm wide open tomorrow. Whatever is best for you.

That's a relief to hear. [Given the extensiveness of just where everyone could come from, there was no way to know just who you were dealing with around here. She was rooming with a murderer already, and he was just a kid.]

Two hours would be perfect. Shall we meet in the dinning room?
