Captain's Christmas Message 2024

Posted on Tue Dec 24th, 2024 @ 11:02am by Captain Taiga Aisaka

Merry Christmas!

On behalf of the command staff of the USS Tokyo, I would like to take a moment to wish every single one of you a Merry Christmas for 2024! We've had an absolutely fantastic year! I am so proud of every single member of this crew. It's not often that a group of writers gel so well together and pull it off not only fantastically, but in their own style!

This year we had one of our longest running missions in the entire history of the Tokyo and you guys were throwing ideas, subplots and everything into it! Genuinely it made this year 100% worth it. I can't help but smile and feel a warmth in my heart knowing that you're all having so much fun and finding everything we do here so enjoyable! It's honestly a pleasure and an honour to not only be your captain, but your friend and a member of this family!

So, for the next two days I want you all to spend the Christmas period with those who matter to you the most. Family, friends, neighbours, loved ones and take a well deserved break. If you feel like putting a few tags in here or there if it all gets too much, or to get away from the 'strange uncle' after Christmas Dinner, then the Tokyo will be here to give you that escape! Just promise me that you'll all enjoy the next few days regardless of what you believe. For some Christmas is a religious holiday, for others it's a time for family and love. Whatever your case, spend it with others and treasure and cherish everyone and everything you hold dear. The most important things in life are those around you and the connections you make.

I'll leave you with this quote:

"Someone once told me that time was a predator that stalked us all our lives. I rather believe that time is a companion who goes with us on the journey and reminds us to cherish every moment, because it will never come again. What we leave behind is not as important as how we've lived." - Captain Jean-Luc Picard, Star Trek Generations.

Once again, Merry Christmas, enjoy the festive season and stay safe!
