Who: Nova + U
Broadcast: Video
Action: On SS First Breath or planetside
When: now

[ a video pops up. Nova is looking mmmmore rested than she has in previous videos, but thoughtful and slightly distant ]

I have a weird question... have you ever met someone in one of these places who's supposed to be dead? Or... I guess, are you? How do you know?

[ she's also available to be found just outside of town on the dusty moon, or back on her ship later ]

[takeabow]

...Who knows.

Are you looking for something?

[grounds]

Something new, I guess. I'll let you know if anything pops out. Toss suggestions at me if you come up with them.

[She spares Nova a glance.] You can ask me stuff, too, if you want.

[takeabow]

I will.

About your life? I'm not sure what the ask.

[grounds]

I didn't say you had to, I just meant I don't mind if you do. [She shrugs.] I'm being nosy enough, so I figured I'd return the favor.

[takeabow]

Okay, well, thanks. I appreciate it.

[grounds]

No problem. [Octavia stops, looking warily at the building they've reached. "Stables".]

You ever ride a horse?

[takeabow]

Actually, I can't say I have. I've ridden in a chariot?

[grounds]

[And now a look back at Nova.] The horse drawn cart used for battle? That thing?

[takeabow]

Yeah, but it was a parade I was in.

[grounds]

[Octavia just stares at her friend for a long time.]

You world is weird.

[takeabow]

You're just now realizing that?

[grounds]

Just reaffirming it, I guess. [She turns back to the stables and goes inside.]

Let's see what we've got.

[takeabow]

Maybe there's someone we can ask? About how to do it.

[grounds]

Maybe. Did you see anyone around? [She pokes her head back out the door to look around.]

No one here.
