This is Miranda Lawson and it must be [ There was a rustling sound as she toyed with her ersonal communicators to check the time and found the task not really worth exhausting what little energy she had regained since her arrival. ] damned if I know. I'll keep this brief - airing my grievances about Atroma to any of you is one more voice preaching to the choir.

Before I'm randomly assigned a ship I would like to know now which if any vessel in the fleet is in dire need of lab support. Even without these...unfortunate augmentations [ Even without the video feed the word could be heard thinly pressed through her teeth. ] I'm hilariously overqualified for the position. Still, I would like to know where I stand and make myself useful.

And not helpful ones.

Yes - I don't believe I caught your name.

I've been here half a year, and this is my second interdimensional shithole, so... I can tell you, there's nothing helpful anyone can do here.

Nightingale. Nice to meet you.

[ancillary]

Well, whatever interdimensional shithole you can walk away from. Or words to that effect.

A pleasure.

[experiencepoints]

Less 'walking away from', more 'getting abducted halfway through'. But, close enough.

I have put together a guide for the new people, though, if you'd like it.

[ancillary]

Really? Prudent.

[ She hums approvingly. ]

That would be helpful, thank you.

[ancillary]

"What the hell is going on."

That certainly gets the point across, doesn't it?

[experiencepoints]

[that gets a slight snicker out of her.]

Well, that's the goal, isn't it.

[ancillary]

I really do appreciate this, thank you.

[experiencepoints]

No problem. I'm just glad to help. I know how much it sucks to be new to these things, after all.
