[ lioriley had planned to check and see if any new members had arrived aboard the bishop after the shuffle. but plans often did go awry with her, as she had been sufficiently distracted while visiting one of her friends aboard another ship earlier in the day. by the time she sees adelina, it's probably after the other woman's been wandering around for a while.

but she makes sure to stop for the unfamiliar face, smiling brightly as she greets her. ]

Hello, Adelina! [ she says softly, lines across her cheeks flickering as she bows her head. ] I am Lioriley - I cannot say I have seen you aboard the Bishop before. Are you a new arrival, or did I happen to miss someone whilst searching previously? [ she would feel terrible if it was the latter. but this ship was so big she's certain she hasn't met everyone. ]

[She makes an effort not to stare, but Lioriley's markings are altogether unfamiliar to her. Her smile doesn't falter as she gives the woman a curtsy in greeting.]

I've only just arrived in this place, you're correct. It's lovely to make your acquaintance.

[ she honestly wouldn't notice if she was staring. ]

Likewise. How are you fairing so far? I know this ship is... quite large.

[bloodbiter]

I am... adapting. I won't act as though this situation isn't extremely frustrating, but there's no point in getting too upset. I'd rather prepare myself for the moment when escape becomes possible, whenever that may be.

[invigorates]

A cool head will do you wonders in such a situation.

[ preparing for the moment to escape, however, does't seem very viable. she doesn't say as much though - doesn't want to discourage her. ]

Until that moment occurs, I would suggest making the best of what has been offered. The Fleet is hardly so bad.

[bloodbiter]

I'm glad to hear you agree.

[a short pause; it's hard to think of this place as "hardly so bad", so the opinion makes her curious.]

What are the best parts about it, if I may ask?

[invigorates]

The people here — others from worlds unlike our own — and the knowledge that they possess that we could never dream of learning otherwise. The chance to visit different places in the universe.

[ she shrugs. ] Though that is my opinion, and I know some will disagree.
