Action/Accidental video

[kill_switch]

Who: Furiosa
Broadcast: Accidental
Action: Bridge
When: Tonight

[Furiosa has spent some time on the planet since it was so entirely different from anywhere else she's been, but the price of that was coming back sick. She's been ill before, but nothing quite like this. She's not about to let it come between her and her duties, though, so when she has the energy she makes slow rounds about the ship.]

[Otherwise, she can be found wrapped in a blanket and curled up in her captain's chair, either sifting through the network or dozing off. She's brought out the little flower that Asteffiel gave her, and set it on the console in front of her.]

[Of course, after one particular session of network sifting, she sets the device aside and accidentally turns it on. The video catches her as she shifts in her chair to get comfortable, settling at looking out at the stars with a melancholy and distant expression. It was a rare moment when she reflected on the life she'd come from, everything she'd been through, and tried to figure out where in this particular world she fit. Her talks with Nova and Sansa were at times both helpful and confusing. She'd run so far and fought so long for a reward she is not able to enjoy here.]

[She reaches out to brush a flesh and bone finger of her right hand over one of the leaves of the plant.] Maybe one day, we'll visit a Green Place.

[ He's new to the ship, but he's made his introductions, and he recognizes Furiosa when the video shows up on the network. He makes his way to the bridge when the feed opens and taps on the door, opening it gently. ]

Your camera is on.

[She looks over at him as he enters, pulling her attention away from the plant. It takes her a moment to register his words, and then she's frowning and reaching for the device.]

I had no idea. [She turns it off, ensures its off, and then sets it back on the console. She shifts into more of a sitting position for the sake of company, tugging the blanket further around her shoulders with her scrap prosthetic.]

Thank you. We didn't really have tech like this back home. At least, not in my time. How are you settling in?

[bothbarrels]

[ He leans against the door frame. ]

Oh, fairly well. I came from a different place—another world where they brought in people for their own purposes. So...it's strange, but I don't really mind the reality show business of it that much. I've been through worse. Are you doing all right?

[kill_switch]

I'm starting to get the impression there's a few of you here who've had experiences like that. [Furiosa only knows her own world outside of this one, but there's such a wealth of varied experiences.]

I've been better but I've also been worse. It's just a cold; it'll pass. [She's quiet for a moment, and then tilts back to look at him.] I'm also taking considerations for a first mate.

[bothbarrels]

[ He nods. ] I come from a world similar to this, and I served on a spaceship myself—not on the bridge, however. But my augment is in communications. Is there anyone else on board whose skills are suitable?

[kill_switch]

We've got an able crew. I've never appointed my own second, though; it needs some consideration.

[She certainly had her pull over the Warboys on her rig, and definitely her own weight against the other imperators, but that she gained through entirely different means which weren't exactly applicable now.]

[bothbarrels]

Well, I suppose I can say I'd be willing if you're led my way. I like to keep busy.

[kill_switch]

I'll keep that in mind. [She gives him a soft smile. After surviving the hyper-violent world of the citadel under Immortan Joe, it was refreshing to meet people who were so affable and pleasant.]

What was your ship like, compared to this one?

[bothbarrels]

Much larger, and busier. We were all training to serve in the war, so there was always someone sparring in the training room or shooting in the weapons galleries. This is a nice change of pace from that.

[kill_switch]

Do you think you'll get bored of it at all? [It is a nice change, but sometimes it can be hard going from such an active life to something more sedate.]

[bothbarrels]

Mm. Most likely. [ The admission is made with a small smile. ] We had plenty of down time there, though, despite all the busy work. We only went on a few missions, when all was said and done. So...anyway, I'll find things to do.
