[ That makes her brighten. She isn't oblivious to Nightingale's reaction, but there's no reason to poke at it. ]

Oh, but a cook is exactly what we need! I've done what I can here as a culinarian myself, but there simply isn't very much I'm familiar with here.

[experiencepoints]

It's a stupid position, I was good at that before I got an augment here. I could have been fine as a cook and gotten something like piloting the damn ship or something useful.

[she's grumbling, but she actually seems to perk up a bit at hearing it's needed.]

At least I can do that much for...

[There's a small pause. So far, the only shipmates she's met are O'Danya and Mal, and Mal is a vampire...]

... Are we really the only ones on the ship who eat?

[paeon]

What?

[ Such a weird question, and one she doesn't understand besides. Where did she get that impression? ]

Of course not. What gave you such an idea?

[experiencepoints]

So far, I've only met you and... um, vampire captain, on this ship. And she doesn't eat, so...

[paeon]

[ Her head tilts in understanding suddenly, and she begins moving back toward the bridge area. ]

Luckily for you, we are not only a crew of three. You'll meet the others soon enough. Beyond that, I doubt anyone else you might make friends with would say no to a well-cooked meal, either.

[experiencepoints]

That's a relief... But I can't exactly cook for people from a different ship. Is it common to visit others?

[She follows along obediently, not really sure why they're backtracking, but hey, the experienced one is doing it, so.]

[paeon]

[ She wants the tour to be given right, of course. Better to learn the important things and move out from those points. ]

Most definitely. Each ship has smaller shuttles used to visit either waystations or each other. We are not as isolated as our surroundings make us appear.

[experiencepoints]

... So that's the same, too... I thought we were a lot more isolated, since we aren't directly competing, but it doesn't seem like that's the case.
