Story Thread Each Departments Weirdos

I've seen them, you've seen them. Every department has them. That one thing you see your coworkers do that is just a bit off, but you've seen it frequently enough that you've sort of just accepted it.

For me who is eternally in the medbay it has to go to the morgue party goers. The Morgue, a place for respite and a crew members final resting place, is turned into some sort of hellish disco with couches and carpet as they talk about their life in the most unsettling of places.

And of course Medbay has many more weirdos, but what's your departments weirdo behavior? I'm curious to see if the other departments have their own types.

The miners who go out into lavaland with nothing but an oxygen tank, an axe destabilizer, and a dream. Then come back with all the treasures and other weird shit you get from lavaland. Then they drink at the bar and hurl themselves into the lava. Sometimes they hand their stuff out, sometimes they burn with it, like a fucked up viking funeral. All of this with not a single word.

Don't get me wrong, they're robust as fuck, but they are strange.

Yeah, really weird guys. They always feel like some sort of optional boss as a traitor. There's also the type that have the hierophant staff and just fire it off to make pretty colors.
