Who: Nova & U
Broadcast: fleet-wide; video
Action: On First Breath
When: August 14th, early morning

[ Nova looks... tired, especially if you saw her on her first day. She's sitting up on her bed and her space looks pretty immaculate and not at all lived-in. She looks a little anxious, and rebraids the bottom of her hair before speaking, visibly uncomfortable with the camera. ]

Uh. Hey. I guess. I hope I'm not waking anyone up. I'm new so... I don't know. I can't sleep. Does anyone have any tips? Or something? It's... well, it's not exactly quiet, because things make noise. But it's... sterile? It doesn't sound right, or smell right.

I don't really want to think about it too hard. Anyway. If you could tell me what you did when you were new...

[ She trails off, awkward and tired and lets the silence go on a little long ]

It's probably just a personal problem.

We're not having a conversation now?

[tothefly]

We are. Doesn't have to be the first and last, unless you want it to be.

[She's good at keeping her distance.]

[takeabow]

I don't see any reason for it to be.

[tothefly]

Then stop by sometime. I could use company, every now and then. Remind me it doesn't have to be claustrophobic.

[takeabow]

Maybe I will.
