Chocolate-flavored Dessert Cream on the House

[The bunks are filling up, but the new faces just keep appearing!

Are you a travel-weary passenger having trouble keeping your crew roster straight? Perhaps you are a fresh new recruit, finding themselves dumped into a new (and much less shiny) home. Or, maybe you've been around for a little bit and just haven't bothered meeting the other weirdos on this ship yet--what is their problem, anyway?

Well, this is the place for you!

All new passengers from the last few Shuffles, especially those who haven't met their crews yet, are welcome to post starter-comments here to invite those living on and visiting your ship to come and interact. Newbies could be just arriving on the ship, busying around where others can find them, or you can offering multiple options for interaction--however you'd like to set up your thread is fine. Just make sure to include the name of your ship in the header, so your crewmates can easily find you!

Everyone else-- go meet those newbies! Whether they are new to your own crew, or on ships you frequently visit, now is a great time to bump into them.]

[ Ahsoka is a very strange-looking girl, as far as Alistair is concerned. But she covered the "horns are not a hat" thing right away, so there goes that question. And he was raised with a certain amount of politeness, at least enough not to simply blurt out but why are you orange. So he just gives her a smile once he makes it to the cargo hold - for such a small space, the ship is pretty confusing to get around at first! ]

Hi, I'm Alistair. I guess I'm - security?

[ That's what his augment seems to be telling him. It's weird, though, suddenly having knowledge that he knows he shouldn't have. ]

[Whup. Have one very excited sixteen year old alien girl.]

Finally! Boy, am I glad to see you.

I'm Ahsoka-- but I already said that. Hi.

[theirinurpants]

Er... [ That's an interesting reaction from a perfect stranger. ] You've been... expecting me?

threadjack ok?

[lord_wizard]

Actually I wager she's pleased that your position on the ship also means we are now equipped with guns.

[Enter Felix, wearing his usual lazy smirk and a large shopping bag in the crook of one arm]

[resnipstance]

[Ahsoka grins a little sheepishly.]

Felix has about the right of it.

I don't really like the idea of being a sitting duck out there if we're attacked.

[theirinurpants]

Oh, right, those. [ He knows what a gun is, even though he knows he shouldn't. Or rather, he didn't before he arrived here. ]

I'm sorry to disappoint, but I've never used one of those before.

[resnipstance]

Well, there's no time like the present!

[theirinurpants]

What, you mean - learn, now?

[ To shoot a great big gun out into space??? Does she even know who she's talking to??? Until they made him king, no one ever trusted Alistair with anything particularly important or dangerous. ]

[resnipstance]

[Ahsoka just looks puzzled, and then sheepish.]

Oh, right. I guess you, uh, probably want to settle in first...

Sorry. I got a little over-excited.

[theirinurpants]

That's all right. It's not very often people are happy to see me! [ Sorry, Ahsoka, your new security officer is also a bit of a clown. ]

Where do I sleep?
