At least there's no elevator music...

[At least two weeks have passed since the Drift Fleet passengers woke up on this strange wing of the Marsiva... Some new passengers have even joined the group instead of being Shuffled off to a fleet ship! The large monitor in the central room remains quiet for now, so how is everyone holding up?

Have you been relaxing? Enjoying the Earth media? If you can even remember them, how have Calibrations been treating you? Has anyone started getting a little stir-crazy?

Don't worry... This ship has no shortage of mysteries, and you'll be seeing a few more soon.]


ooc: here's another mingle for the current game event! players can start or continue threads here from any point during the event. the additional setting information is still being postponed due to sickly mods, but y'all are welcome to post additional topcomments for reactions and investigation once it's up!

[ weiss is close, but at a respectable distance, she'd insist, and now that conversation seems to be straying towards "small talk," she finds it a bit easier to focus. ]

I've only been here a few days, so I'm spending my time brushing up on what I can. I wish I can say this is my first experience with these sort of situations, but admittedly I'd never been on a spaceship before...

It's a once-in-a-lifetime-chance. [ Well, Haruka supposes there may be some worlds where that isn't the case, but those seem to be in the minority here. Otherwise, why the implants? (Or the excuse they give for the implants, anyway.) And why the focus on Earth culture? ]

[ weiss' expression flattens a bit. ]

I suppose I could find more reason to be excited for it if I were actually given any say in it beforehand...

[actsmagnificent]

There are good points. [ Now she's really playing devil's advocate. As they reach the kitchen, Haruka starts going through the motions of getting the coffee ready - yes, she was the one invited, but please allow her to serve the lady. ] Like meeting company you wouldn't otherwise.

[ A grin for the full implications, there. ]

[ weiss squints at her a little. there's no way she can misunderstand that, she's sure of it. ]

You're quite shameless, aren't you?

[actsmagnificent]

Is that a problem? [ Haruka doesn't know that she'd put it that way, but....she does indeed tend not to regret or second-guess herself.

She also knows her way around a coffeepot quite skillfully. If it's possible to be especially skilled at coffee. ]

[multiglyphs]

It can be, but I don't think you've crossed that line yet.

[ ah, is she playing hard to get? she could be playing hard to get. ]

[actsmagnificent]

I'll be careful. [ This is not the facial expression careful people wear. ]

How d'you take your coffee?
