the word of the day is "paranoia"
Who: Kirito / OTA
Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action: Hiding out in engineering on the Paisley, if you so desire
When: Now!
[So, this is something he's been wondering - and eventually, seriously considering - for the last couple of months, mostly when they landed on Arslae and he realized how ill-equipped he is to deal with conflict. For most people, it would simply be a matter of avoiding fights. But for him... well. It's kind of all he's ever been good for.
Getting told that, hey, one of your crewmates is a murderer is more or less the last straw to break through his indecisive camel back.]
I have a question, mostly for whoever's gotten personal those personal augment upgrades you can buy, or at least thought about it. I'd really like to know- what's it like? Which did you choose? Why would you choose to get one- or why not? I mean, the people offering them up aren't exactly trustworthy, but they all sound pretty useful, too.
Basically, I'm trying to weigh the pros and cons. I'd appreciate the help.

action
[He is probably way too young to be this cynical, but that's life.]
action
While I'm thinking about it, have you asked Anakin or anyone else about sword lessons? [As much as they've trained together, there's only so much Stefan the fist-fighter can do.]
action
action
[He thinks. He's not exactly an expert when it comes to fighting with more than bare fists.]
I know Ahsoka was offering classes too, so you could ask her next time you're at the gym.
action
[Slowly but surely, he's starting to ease off on all that stress he's been feeling. It won't be gone entirely, but- this helps. It helps a lot, actually.]
Thanks. I guess I wasn't thinking as clearly about it all as I should be.
action
[He'd felt it in Tokyo too, right before he turned. Sure, the timing was convenient, but he wasn't exactly going to face a giant monster without powers.]
Let me know if those plans go through. We can cut back on our stuff, or switch it up a little, or... you know. Whatever works.
action
[He's not about to act ungrateful, after everything.]
action
[Most days, he doesn't even feel 168. Which makes sense, considering memory loss + reincarnation shenanigans, but sometimes, he feels more like a twenty-something than a hundred and sixty-something.]
action
How old are you, anyway?
action
[Stefan gives a shrug as he goes for another cookie.] But I was turned when I was twenty two.
action
[WHAT THE HECK STEFAN that was a bomb of knowledge.]
action
Surprise? [He rubs the back of his neck, not really sure what to do now...] I was turned in... 1864? Something like that.
action
[He's only 17! That many years is practically unfathomable.]
action
I remember bits of my childhood, and pieces here and there. Nothing fully concrete.
action
[Memory problems, always kind of an iffy area. He doesn't want to cause problems for his friends.]
action
[He shrugs, a little helplessly. Sometimes, Stefan thinks, he's better off not remembering.]
action
[But still- over a hundred and fifty years is amazing.]
So that's... young. For a vampire.
action
You've also got the newborns - the ones turned a year or two ago, but most tend to be significantly older.
action
[He's spent so much time in recent years trying not to die young that he hasn't given much thought to a long life. That sounds too long.]
action
action
[It would be sad, not having a long-term home, but he kind of likes the idea of being able to go where you please as a trade-off. The world is a big place, after all.]
action
[All in the past two years. Stefan's scarily well-traveled, given his age.]
Honestly, most of my travel's within the US. I didn't see much reason to leave.
