outstandingbalanceWho: Natasha Romanoff
Broadcast: video
Action: SS Vanquish
When: now or later
[Natasha's face appears on the video, looking tired but focused. Thoughtful. She also looks like the image she presents, insofar as she can control it, is intentional. She's in her quarters, but the camera is angled to reveal little aside from a blank ship wall and the edge of her bunk behind her face and shoulders. There's no fumbling.
When the video starts, she flashes a slight smile.]
As announcements go, this one's a bit late. As of the end of calibrations, I've been the listed captain for the Vanquish.
[It's not an announcement that comes with any pride, or any sense of authority.]
It has had me thinking. I know different ships treat the titles differently, take them more seriously—or less. Most of the time it hasn't mattered to me all that much.
Not like there's any qualifications for it.
[The 'but' in her words is heavily implied in the pause that follows, the slow way she sighs through her nose.]
I've been wondering lately how people would like it to be. If you had a say in it—hypothetically unless you're my crew I suppose—how would you like captains to treat their job? And what would you say their job is.
[She leans back a little, visibly waiting for a response before the video cuts out.]
