Who: Jaina
Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action: There's a new engineer joining the Bishop.
When: She might manage to wait five minutes after the latest shuffling.
The layout of these controls don't make any kind of sense. Not by any scheme I've seen on a ship, anyway.
[Yep, there is a teenager with her device propped on a nearby console, leaning elbows on another while she peers at it, intent. As she goes, she nearly taps buttons and levers, behaving enough not to actually muck with anything.]
It's not like snubfighter controls. Believe me, I know. But if this were anything like a Corellian YT-series I'd expect this to handle pitch, and...that should be yaw. Are the thrusters strictly forward? Maybe there's a z-axis control.
[These are all incorrect, and she seems to understand that. She chews her bottom lip, distracted with thought, before she finally turns her head to look directly into the camera again.]
How universal are the designs on these ships? I'm on Bishop, and there's a few things I can peg as customizations, but not too much. I've got a feeling I should try to learn as much as I can. Especially if I'm going to have to open a few of these panels up after a while to make sure it keeps working correctly.
[Admittedly, part of that feeling is the simple fact that regardless of the circumstances surrounding her presence in this fleet, she is stoked about learning the intricacies of a new style of ship.]

So what can we do in the meantime?
no subject
[ Haruka pauses for "thought". ] Window shop, maybe.
[ Looking at all the tech in this Solar System is pretty neat. ]
no subject
I'm not sure they'll take credits from the New Republic.

[ She thinks. ] The shuttles might still work.
[ Might not be worth risking the attention of whatever runs security here, but. It's a thought. ]

For now, let's take a look and see what's around. If you don't mind.
no subject
[ Wink. She likes this kid. Haruka begins unbuckling herself from where she'd been demonstrating how they would fly if they could fly. ]
no subject
[Practically hopping up, yep.]
no subject
[ Then again, the only person who she thinks might care where she goes tends to be able to read her mind enough to find her anyway. She may be spoiled.
They are, in short, good to go. ]
