When: Before the 6/14 shuffle

[ACTION AND VIDEO]

[For whatever reason, it's eerily quiet, and the sound of two bare feet hitting the metal floor of the hospitality deck can be heard. (it's really for dramatic effect, who are we kidding) The owner, a small girl of fourteen, stares into space (ha!) as she takes a few slow, deliberate steps. After a moment, she crouches down and places her hand on the floor, pauses, then speaks. Or yells. Whatever.]

Hey!! Someone tell me what's going on! This isn't another weirdo spirit thing is it? I'd hit my quota for the month already!

[She huffs in annoyance, straightening up. Now she's quieter, talking more to herself.] What's with this weird place?

Comments

[bolder]

You mean besides the weird surge of knowledge that's suddenly in my head?

[deshabille]

You should have gotten an augment as well, if you're lucky.

[bolder]

Pilot. I think. [A sort of uncertain face. Because really.]

[deshabille]

Nothing wrong with pilot.

[Because she can't . . . tell . . . that Toph is blind . . .]

[bolder]

Nope, not at all. [A casual pause.] Unless someone's blind or something.

[deshabille]

Oh. Unless someone's blind or something.

[p a u s e]

Try not to crash into the rest of us, then.

[bolder]

No promises are being made.

[deshabille]

I only ask for some effort.

[bolder]

Occasionally.

[deshabille]

Oh, well. At least it would probably be interesting to look at if you blew your ship up.

[bolder]

We'll see how that goes. Or at least you will.
