Uh, not too much yet. I haven't quite found the bunks yet, but I did check out the cargo bay, the kitchen, and the bridge already.

[bloodbiter]

I see... What was the cargo bay like?

[since she has no idea what a cargo bay is.]

[onlyburnhotter]

Big, spacious... I don't know. Basically what you'd imagine a "cargo bay" on a spaceship to look like, I guess. I mean, there's the shuttles. Those are pretty cool. I'd love to learn how to fly one of them.

[bloodbiter]

Ah... I'm afraid I haven't heard of a cargo bay or a spaceship prior to arriving to this place, so I'm not sure what most people would expect.

[a short pause, and then she speaks in an apologetic tone]

And if I may ask, what is a shuttle?

[onlyburnhotter]

Huh, well, I guess we're kind of similar then. I mean, I've never been on a space ship before either. Still though, do they not have planes where you are from?

[Yang considers her question.]

Maybe it'd be better if I just showed you?

[She makes a gesture for her shipmate to follow her.]

[bloodbiter]

I have never heard of a plane.

[so, that's a no. but she nods eagerly at yang's offer.]

If you're willing, I would appreciate that. Thank you.

[she follows after her.]

[onlyburnhotter]

[Yang leads her fellow newly-minted crew member to the ship's cargo hold. Pointing toward the large shuttle craft that takes up a large part of the bay's space, she turns to her companion.]

That's our shuttle. It's capable of flying through space like this ship, though not as fast or as far or for as long. It's basically used for short range travel between the ships, and I guess the planets too.
