Four!

[tobeajedi]

Who: Vima Sunrider, waking up from hiatusy coldsleep.
Broadcast: Video
Action: On the Heron.
When: 12/2

[Vima rubs her face and groans, making a face because wow, did she brush her teeth last night? And then her eyes pop open wide. When did she get back on the ship? She looks around... something is different. It's warmer, for one thing.

And then she spots the flat, circular portrait holoprojector laying on the bunk... she picks it up and she's about to turn it on when she notices her comm is broadcasting. She makes another face--obviously Atroma wanted to see her emotional reaction--but she might as well make use of it.]

Hey, if anyone's picking this up.

Is everyone else back on their ships? Have our hosts said anything yet? [there's a pause as she goes back through a few posts... uh...] I think I overslept.

[ Kotoha is actually brand spanking new to the Heron! And the fleet in general, of course. She's hanging out on the bridge when she picks up on the broadcast, and. Well. There's no harm in reaching out to a shipmate or something, right? She smiles. ]

Good morning! Sorry, I'm not very helpful for you, I wasn't here until after everyone was talking about being back on the ships... but at least that answers your question?

[waaaitasec that's the bridge! They got a new shipmate while Vima was under?]

Hi! Yeah, if we're getting new people sorted onto the crews again, I guess it's been a little while--hang on, I'll come up and meet you properly.

[She needs to check out the piloting station anyway--and as she approaches the bridge, Vima gets that old 'this person has SOMETHING akin to but not actually the Force' feeling... kind of a weird one.]

Hey! I'm Vima, our pilot. Who are you?

action~

[ And hold on, she does! When Vima arrives, she smiles again, even gives a short, polite bow before waving her hand. ]

I'm Kotoha. It looks like I'm going to be your security officer - I hope that'll be useful. [ nod! ] It's nice to meet you, Vima!

[tobeajedi]

I'm sure it will be. We do get into trouble around here, now and again. Nice to meet you too.

[She hops over into the pilot's seat to check out if anything's changed here, but also trying to work out what it is about Kotoha that's bugging her... it's like there's something bad there, but Kotoha doesn't seem like a bad person?]

So where'd you get yanked from? You look Human, like me.

[maschinenpistole]

Oh, I'm from Earth. Sakurahin, Japan. And I'm actually half. The other half is demon.

[ Which, "demon" is almost nbd where she's from (keyword: almost) - so while she seems a teeny bit worried about admitting it, she's still pretty calm and casual about it. ]

Where are you from? You look human too, at least to me...

[tobeajedi]

Earth is one of the most popular places to nab people from, it looks like. And I'm all Human myself. But I'm not from anywhere around Earth--whole different galaxy.

I've met a couple of people who use that word 'demon.' What does it really mean?

[maschinenpistole]

Oh wow! A different galaxy! [ So exciting! ] Did you know about Earth before you got here?

And I think it depends. You see, where I'm from, demons come from another dimension, and are powerful beings that are inclined to be dangerous or trouble. But not all of them are like that, because I come from a town where humans and demons live together just fine, and in peace.

[tobeajedi]

Nope! Never heard of it before, so I was pretty surprised to find out that Humans live there. Our species really does get in everywhere.

Another dimension... is that like an alternate universe? [She sort of... kind of knows a little bit about those, mainly that they exist. But that explains the odd 'dark' sense she's getting, then.] Supposed enemies working together, huh? I like that.

[maschinenpistole]

[ She laughs a little at that. ] Sounds like it, if so multiple galaxies are involved!

Ahhh, sort of! I guess. It's a world that's parallel to ours, exists at the same time... [ It's not very clearly defined. Never has been. Makes it interesting to think about! ] But you're right. I like it, too. It's especially great to throw in the faces of people who want to think it's absolutely impossible!

[ Who hates black and white thinking? This chick. o/ ]

[tobeajedi]

[A parallel world that... exists at the same time?]

You know, I thought hyperspace involved some strange physics, but I'm starting to think that my galaxy is pretty tame as far as that goes.

But that sounds like--like a lot of fun, really. I bet it really irritates the people who thik it's impossible, right?

[maschinenpistole]

To be fair, I don't think I understand it fully either! I'd have to be some sort of special scientist or magician, probably.

[ She griiins. ] It does irritate them! They're so stuck in their own worlds that the existence of Sakurashin is enough to rock the boat! It's very fun.

[tobeajedi]

We've got both scientists and magicians in the Fleet. Maybe they can work it out.

Hah, that's what I thought. So what kind of stuff do you and your demon friends do?
