01 - Light the fire
Who: Yang Xiao Long
Broadcast: Network-wide
Action: Marsiva and SS Bishop
When: 1/08/16 - 1/10/16
A: Arrival on the Marsiva (Backdated to 01/08):
[When the communicator's network feed goes online, it does not show anything at first. Seemingly just an empty cot room aboard the Marsiva. However, after a few seconds, a girl with long blonde hair slowly sits up in bed, rubbing her bleary, sleep-filled eyes. She stretches both arms above her, yawning loudly, and trying to evict whatever remnants of sleep were lingering on her person.]
Bluh. Hope I didn't oversleep. Weiss will kill me if I'm late to the--
[It's then that she takes a moment to look around, still looking half asleep. Slowly, she noticeably begins to realize that this is not, in fact, her dorm room back at Beacon Academy. No, this appears to be something far different. She notices a nearby window, the inky blackness of space stretching far out beyond the glass. She walks over to it, looking outside. She crans her neck this way and that, as if looking for the seam or the border of the set, some clue that this could actually be an elaborate prank. However, she quickly determines that this is all rather convincingly real. Rather than freak out though, she takes a moment, crosses her arms, and even grins a little.]
Well, this certainly was not what I was expecting to wake up to today. Space, huh? I can dig it.
[She spies the communicator sitting on a table, nearby the cot that she woke up on. She walks over and picks it up, offering a wave of greeting.]
Hi there to anyone watching this. All you aliens and space people and whatnot. Um, as cool as this all is- and really, it is pretty cool-I kind of have to get back to Vale soon. Like, right away actually. Got this big tournament that I'm fighting in, and my team's counting on me for the one on ones. So, if we could turn this thing around or if you could beam me back or just do the reverse of whatever you did to bring me here, I'd really appreciate it.
Maybe we can do this whole outer space thing some other time?
B: Arrival on Bishop (01/10):
[From one ship right to another. Not that Yang was complaining. After only a day on the Marsiva, she was already bored. She'd never been one to want to hang around in one place for too long. Unfortunately, it was seeming like this new ship was smaller than the old one. Still, at least it was something new to explore.]
[After the shuffle, Yang can be found wandering around the Bishop, getting the lay of the ship and figuring out all that it has to offer. She can be found in the kitchen, combing through the food supplies or playing with the drink machine's options--she'll be mixing flavors to see what tastes the best. She can be found in the bunkroom, looking a little disappointed with the overall lack of space provided. In the bridge, she'll be curiously checking out all the fancy knobs, switches and buttons. You may walk in on her about to push one or two. In the cargo bay, she'll be ogling the Bishop's shuttle craft, wondering how easy it would be to take one out for a spin. Not like she exactly knows how to fly one, but how hard could it be, right? Finally, she'll find her way to the armory, inspecting the various weapons that it has to offer. Sadly, discovering that she'll likely not find any good substitutes for her ember celica here.]

Oh, you're the cook? That's awesome. So how does it work? Do I just text you my order, and then you let me know when it's ready? Or do you have specific hours of service? Is there a menu I can look at too? What's your specialty? Do you do pre-prepared meals?
no subject
I am not the main cook here, despite having that augment. I am a mage, and slow the fuck down or I will knock you out.
[... It would probably sound a lot more threatening coming from someone who wasn't 5'1 and skinny enough to make you wonder if she's eaten in the past week.]
no subject
Sorry, my bad. Everything's still so new, so I guess I'm just a little anxious about it all.
no subject
[Sorry, Yang, she's just a little high-strung. She at least takes a deep breath.]
Belthazar- You'll meet him before long, elven kid- is the main cook around here. Ask him how you go about getting food, but it's not like we're a restaurant.
... But, here.
[Maybe she was a little harsh, snapping like that. So she holds up a hand, and a grilled fish on a skewer appears in it, before levitating itself over to Yang.]
If you're hungry.

Thash wash so cool! Howsh you do thash? Wash thatsh your semblencesh? I've never seensh one likesh dat beforesh!
no subject
Eat, then talk.

So is that like your semblance then? Wind manipulation?
no subject
It's... magic? Wind, a really basic utility spell. I have never heard 'semblance' used to mean that.
no subject
[She looks Nightingale over, clearly looking like she's trying to locate something hidden on the girl's person.]
no subject
[Well, now Nightingale's totally lost.]
Of course there's no dust, I keep my areas clean.
no subject
[She stops herself, remembering that not everyone here is from Remnant, and thus would not know about things like dust, or semblances or huntresses. As obvious as that would seem, to go from these things from being common knowledge to practically unknown took some getting used to.]
Oh, right. Of course, you don't know what I'm talking about. Well, basically, to be able to use magic so freely like that, it be considered pretty impressive back where I come from.
no subject
[She shrugs awkwardly, out of having no damn clue how else to react.]
It's no big deal. I can use a bunch of other elements, and I learned Wind when I was really young, so... I've just had a lot of practice.

Wait a second. You know Weiss?
no subject
Yeah, Weiss Schnee. She's one of my teammates on team RWBY. We go to Beacon together. You know her? She's here isn't she? Blake said that she was, but I haven't seen or heard from her at all yet.
It's actually kind of unlike her...
no subject
I asked her out once a couple months ago, and never saw her again, so I'm assuming either I got pretty soundly rejected, or she vanished from the fleet too. Or both.

Oh my god! That's so cute! What did she say? What face did she make? Did she blush? Where were you going to take her? Were you going to make her dinner? Did you get her a gift? Flowers maybe? Oh! Or chocolates? I mean, they're cliche but still kind of romantic!
no subject
She posted a drinking game to the network, she had some cute reactions to some of the shit I said so asked her, it was absolutely nothing like what you're thinking, and nothing happened anyway, please calm down.
no subject
That's still really cute though. I wish I could have been here for that. Maybe you'll get a second chance with her some time?
