We begin our visit to the Space Colony Omega in the same way many of the other visitors, colonists, and scientists do, being hauled out of juice stasis and gently acclimatize to the space in their new (hopefully temporarily) swollen forms.

Here we see  The_Golden_Hat still firmly in stasis, their turn to get woken up soon to come,  DaveKitsune being woken and helped by  DiZZee,
 D. Wayne Kentson being rolled out of stasis by The_Blue_Mage, and  Umbra helped by  DeanFox. Being a taur must be quite helpful when being on roller duty!

 magicbees makes sure that all those coming out of stasis are accounted for, and  BigFluffySnep does their part in directing the flow of berries, it's not their first rodeo.

Looks like  ZarosTheFurry,  LyleTheAlpaca, and  fan_owo are much more awake already, but it seems Lyle wasn't quite mentally prepared to wake up like this. Good thing a quick run through the juicer is soon to come and remedy their condition.... right? Hopefully nothing weird is going on with the Colony on their day of arrival.... right?

With all the influx of juice, it's important to keep things clean, and  Si-moo the cleaning bot does this job wonderfully with their powerful water cannons.

 Tagmer, a resident of the colony, doesn't really seem to notice the new arrivals at all, instead they seem fairly sucked into the entertainment provided by their chair, which helps with mobility around the station for someone so hefty... I wonder if they were like this before arriving to the station.

 Toko, the owner and head of the colony always likes to put on a good face for the new arrivals, but perhaps the inability to get out of their office would put a damper on things...  Greyline, who has trouble fitting anywhere in the station besides the promenade's atrium just seems to like chatting with the owner as the welcome party begins.

What welcome party would be complete without an orientation?  Kitami-Kitsune the Hologram seems to be explaining the specifics with dealing with the arrival's newfound size, and the importance of juicing.

 IAteABox the hologram seems to be explaining about restricted access to the less glamorous parts of the ship, where berries are especially not supposed to go, but given the amount of juice trailing that way, and how much the hologram is glitching from said juice, I think their warnings were not heeded...

 MidnightAnimal seems to be late for work in the labs, they throw their lab coat onto their peachy Hylotl body in a rush. Hopefully the lab won't mind the mess. Meanwhile Wyrwulf can't seem to understand why the station refuses to produce bigger boots, these ones barely fit their big toe!
