Who: Lily Evans
Broadcast: Video/Fleetwide (she's still learning)
Action: Wandering the First Breath finding her feet.
When: After the shuffle

All right, that looks about...

Oh, hello. I think I've done this thing right.

[A youngish red head was looking around herself, the interior of the ship clear in the background. She's in some hallways somewhere.]

Well, this is a bit sad to say but, can anyone direct me to the labs? Sorry, I should introduce myself first. Lily Evans here, I guess I'm your new lab support personnel. Blimey if I know what all that entails but, I was always a fair hand at potions.

Right, well then if anyone could be so kind, pointing me in the right direction would be appreciated.

[And belatedly.]

Thanks.

[ there is an odd crashing sound, because james definitely dropped his mug of tea (probably all over his piloting console, sorry anakin), because he would recognize that voice anywhere.

-- she looks alright, if not a bit confused. what ship is she on? lab support.

-- shit. ]

Bollocks --

[misterprongs]

[ as he totally smoothly cleans up what he's spilled because he totally didn't just do that on camera ]

Lily!

[ with a grin ]

When did you get here -- what ship're you on?

[ pause ]

-- what's the last thing you remember?

[ did you not want rapid fire questioning because that's what you're getting missy ]

[gifted_witch]

Potter?

[You are not getting the smile Remus got!]

This week, I think. The lack of proper day and night makes it odd. But just a few days. I'm still finding my way. I'm on the First Breath did you know Remus was here?

[Because clearly that was more important.]

I remember getting my owl for school supplies for the coming term. Why?

[misterprongs]

[ . . . well, this is going to be a bit more difficult than expected. ]

Moony's on my ship, the Paisley.

[ mildly indignant -- of course he knew where remus was, jeez. ]

And which term? Seventh year?

[theshabbiestofmen]

Lily!

[Remus is older looking, of course, twenty-one to her teenage years-- but it's undoubtedly him beaming at her from the video feed.]

How long have you been here? Are you all right? Where are you, can you tell me-- I mean, on the Marsiva or a different ship, or--

[A beat, and he cuts himself off.]

Sorry. Just. It's good to see you.

[gifted_witch]

Remus?

[She leaned into the screen as though she could see him better or more that way. Her smile was, well radiant. Here she was in all this strangeness and a dear friend was here!]

Well, I've only just arrived. I was on a ship and then told I'd being crewing on, what's this, the First Breath?

How are you? You look so, different. [Confused but happy sixth year is confused, but happy.]

[theshabbiestofmen]

James and I are on the Paisley-- and time's a bit . . . different here. [He hesitates, but then:] I'm twenty-one, actually, and you . . . are you still in Hogwarts?

...Lily Evans?

[ the name is almost only a whisper. it's familiar to sansa -- but only by hearsay, and only from james potter's mouth. it's enough to make her curious. seven hells, it's enough to uncurl her from her anti-social shell and make a brave attempt to converse with one of the newer additions to the fleet.

are you lily evans of house gryffendor?]

Are you -- [ ... ] Apologies. I hope you're well, my lady.

Re: video »

[gifted_witch]

Oh, hello!

[Lily offered brightly to the woman, her green eyes sparkled with a sort of open warmth.]

I am thanks, {she added more with a soft laugh.] Aside from fouling my directions up. I think this place changes more than, well just need a map is all I guess.

[steeledskin]

[ it only now occurs to her that others might find these ships maze-like. they cause sansa all manner of anxiety, but not because of their hallways. in this way, they are more like castles whose corridors are to be decoded. she's always been handy with directions.

softer: ] Has James Potter found you? [ ... ] Only, you see, he told me your name...

Action

[kill_switch]

[Hello this is your Captain walking by; she's tall, lean and muscled. Her left arm is a metal prosthetic cobbled together from odds and ends and tools she found around the ship. At leas, they certainly match the interior. She's headed to the cargo bay for a workout when she passes the redhead, stopping immediately and looking at her with piercing eyes.]

You're new. Welcome to the First Breath.

Re: Action

[gifted_witch]

[And this is your new lab person doing an excellent and valiant effort at not flinching in your presence. Because, you have quite a powerful one. She never thought anyone could make her snap to more than Professor McGonagall.]

I am yes, ma'am. Thank you.

[Was she supposed to curtsy or wave or salute or something? She was buggered on knowing protocol for this so she just stood straight and polite and silent until otherwise indicated.]

Action

[kill_switch]

[It's a product of a violent world, and while Furiosa doesn't carry around the need to intimidate, at this point there's a certain level of it that's ingrained; she can't help her bearing anymore.]

[She's not unaware the effect she might have on people, though, and after seeing Lily's posture, she reaches out her right hand - flesh and bone - in greeting.]

Captain Furiosa. Are you settling in alright?

Video

[tallasaking]

Welcome aboard, crewmate.

[Here is Tyrion's amused and scarred face.]

I trust someone has pointed you in the general direction of the labs?

Video

[gifted_witch]

Thank you, yes I have just met the Captain and she is showing me the way.

[She'd seen many a scarred face before, it wasn't something that upset or bothered her. More she was taken with the apparent amusement of his expression. the crinkle round the eyes.]

So you are here somewhere as well? With luck I won't be lost for too long.

Re: Video

[tallasaking]

[Now that was a strangely non-judgmental face. Oh well done, Lily Evans. He always grants special favor to women who do not flinch at his face.]

Why yes I am -- I am Tyrion Lannister, of House Lannister which everyone has told me is an unnecessary greeting, yet here we are. I am your Engineer.

Hey...

[ Nova emerges from her quarters, hair braided, and looks over Lily ]

I saw your video.

[gifted_witch]

Oh, hello.

[Lily smiled in greeting to her.]

Sorry, just still a bit turned around. All thee corridors look alike.

[takeabow]

[ Nova smiles slightly ]

Yeah, they do. Where are you headed?

video

[experiencepoints]

It would probably help if you mentioned which ship you're on.

Re: video

[gifted_witch]

Oh, yes. That would be helpful wouldn't it? I am on the First Breath.

[experiencepoints]

Oh. Never been on that one, sorry.

You're new here?

[onlyanapple]

Suppose that's something the ships are really missing. Potions. Do they explode at all? That could probably get messy.

Re: Video

[gifted_witch]

Not if you're any good at them, which I can say I am. Unless you wanted exploding poisons, I'd have to try to remember how those work. I remember engorgement charms and inflation hexes, but exploding potions not really off the top of my head.

Video

[onlyanapple]

Huh, how about that. I'm sure if we ever get very bored, we can have some fun with that. Bump up the ratings, and all that.
