im 500 years old and what is this

[invigorates]

Who: lioriley and anyone
Broadcast: fleetwide
Action: the bishop
When: right meow

[ lioriley isn't really one for asking such seemingly random questions to the fleet, but she has no idea who to turn to in her moment of need!

hence why the elf is sitting in one of the medbays aboard the bishop, a set of boots before her. she gestures to them and cuts to the chase quickly; ]

A question, for those that may be familiar with such things:

...How is one meant to walk in these? I had tried them on earlier, but I was met with - ah - well, let us just say that I am not accustomed to such things. If you happen to be though, any input would be highly appreciated. [ lessons in walking in heels even more so, but they can get to that eventually. ]

[ she shakes her head. ] I never had a need for such things.

Well... if you've never worn them before, practice is what it's gonna take. They'll feel weird at first, and don't wear them too long or you'll get cramps in your feet and your calves. But you get used to them.

You could try walking up and down the corridor of your ship with them. [It's narrow, so you know. If you lose balance you'll probably able to catch yourself before breaking an ankle.]

And if you hate them, don't wear 'em.

[ the dark elf just nods her head through all of this, committing the advice to memory. she glances to the shoes again, ]

I doubt it will be so terrible that I hate them. Difficult, maybe, but I will endure as best I can. Thank you, miss. [ she feels like she should know her name, seeing as they work together and she knows for a fact she has seen her more than once in passing in the space bar. ]

I do not believe I ever caught your name.

[Well, they haven't spoken really before this, so Nami just smiles. Fair call.]

Good luck with them. And it's Nami! It's nice to meet you properly.

[invigorates]

Likewise, Nami. I have been meaning to try and introduce myself properly, but the bar is often far too busy for such things.

[namisan]

Yeah, not the most conducive environment to get to know your fellow workers. It's okay. Maybe we can have a drink ourselves some time.
