Who: Octavia Blake and ??
Broadcast: Everyone
Action: Marsiva
When: Saturday morning (backdated)

[Luckily for Octavia's dignity, somehow her initial waking up freakout wasn't broadcast, so the first televised signs of her include the brunette leaning against the wall, curiously looking over her communicator. She jumps a little when it starts recording, but composure isn't too far off.

A raised brow greets the fleet, followed by a hesitant attempt at a smile. It's a bad one.]

So, space. [It's said in a very dry, unimpressed tone.] Anyone mind telling me what the hell's going on? I've got things to do, and this wasn't one of them... Whatever this is.

[She straightens, moving back to her initial bunk.]

And someone tell me what dick took my sword. I want it back.

[Her brows furrow, and she bites back a snappish retort. Instead, she goes with more debates. Or whatever is going on.]

No, we're not. [Well, she admits it's her.] It means I haven't given up yet. There's still stuff to live for, and like hell I'm gonna spend my time coasting through waiting for it to go south.

[Octavia's not angry with him, not by a long shot. She just sounds pretty damned determined.]

Finding something to live for and hoping for something are two very different things.

...Still, many do not get to be at a point where it is safe to hope. You are fortunate if you have.

And I've done both. They're not mutually exclusive.

[She bites the inside of her cheek for a moment.] The word fortunate might be too strong of a word. It was either most likely die where I was or only maybe die where I am. Back home, I mean.

But I can explore. I'll gladly take it.

I see.

Then I wish you luck. In your exploration.

[The sentiment earns him a half-smile, though she appears a little puzzled.]

Yeah, thanks for that.

[And off goes the feed. HE'LL WORK ON SOMETHING FOR YOU, OCTAVIA.]
