Blameless Mingle

[shishkebub]

Who: Those who are without blame
Broadcast: Nope
Action: On the Blameless
When: Whenever we feel like it! Gawd!

[A brand new crew has been assigned to a brand new ship. Can they find it within themselves to get along? Find out next time! Or you know, in this actual log.]

[ Miranda also took to making the rounds of the corridors of the Blameless. Enjoying this sudden windfall of elbow room but not pretending to find anything agreeable about what she had been given to work with. Flicking through the ship's manifest with the occasional click of her tongue, tutting at whatever little detail failed to clear the high bar of her expectations. ]

Working out of a damned shoe box. [ She mumbled, stepping over the legs sticking out interior paneling without missing a beat ]

Hmm? Certainly.

[ The voice was familiar - that had to have been newly minted captain and stopgap ship's engineer. With a flick of her wrist the hyperspanner was lifted off the ground as a flickering blue light surrounded it before being gingerly placed in Luke's outstretched hand.

Because manipulating physics was the best option when simply bending down to pick the hyperspanner would be too much effort. ]

[t65]

Oh! What was that-? [That felt-- odd. Like nothing he's ever felt before. He takes the spanner, but in a moment he's squirming his way out of the wall. When he emerges, there's some engine grease smeared on the bridge of his nose, and his hair's a dusty mess. Eyes wide, he looks to Miranda with open excitement.] Well, hello! I wasn't expecting that. You'll have to tell me how you did it.

[Said as innocently as humanly possible, despite the fact that, inside the wall, it would have been impossible for him to see anything.]

How did I - oh, the biotics? [ Miranda asked mildly even as she seemed thrown even flustered by the question as though Luke had just made a comment on a stain on her shirt. ]

You'll have to forgive me I'm so used to it that was like asking me what gravity was. In its most reductive terms you can say I just played with the laws of physics with a mass effect field. - You've got a little something.

[ Speaking of stains. Miranda taps her nose to mirror where the smudge Luke was currently sporting was. ]

[t65]

Oh-? Oh. [He wipes the grease away-- or tries to. Somehow he manages to smudge it worse.] A mass effect field? Or is that just like gravity to you too?

[ancillary]

Sorry I hadn't come prepared to give a physics lesson. [ She doesn't sound annoyed - caught off guard more than anything. ] Alright, I suppose the long and short of it is with my abilities I can increase or decrease the mass content of space-time. Essentially, I change an object's mass temporarily.

[ Then she reaches for a handkerchief she somehow kept in that skintight suit of her's then offering it to Luke. ]

Here.
