I'm excited to meet you, too, Jade! My name is Kaworu. I'm an engineer for the Vanquish. Do you like being a pilot? What are spacey powers?

[ AWH kaworu. jade will take a beat here to wax nostalgic - she knew a version of him in asgard. ]

i do!!
i was kind of a pilot'ish at home, too
and they are kind of exactly what they sound like, hehe
i can manipulate things in space!
i could probably make you reaaaaaally tiny if i wanted to :p
(but dont worry, i dont!)

[He hasn't yet run into anyone who knows an alternate version of himself... it's kind of her not to startle him with it.]

I piloted at home, too. I'm glad if you're happy with your designation.
Things would probably be hard if I were tiny! But that sounds very interesting. I've never known a person capable of such things. Do you like that, too?

i do! i like it very much
i couldnt do it at all when i was in asgard, and i missed it a bunch :(
its not actually very reliable here sometimes, though
i try not to use it on people if i can help it
i dont want to accidentally launch anyone into a sun or something

Yeah, that would be unfortunate. The sun part, I mean.
But I'm happy it's something you like!
What I think sounds especially nice is the ability to grow plants. Though, there's something nice about watching a thing grow over time, too. A plant is good either way.
By the way, what are :p and :( ?

[He's not learned very much about emoji, yet.]

yes, i agree!
i used to grow a lot of them back at home
they were very much my friends!!
but thats a little harder to do in space

and oh!!
those are little sideways faces
see? :p is sticking his tongue out, and :( is frowning because hes sad!!

Having a lot sounds wonderful.
I had a tree I liked. And I enjoyed seeing wildflowers. [Which were mostly weeds, but...] Thinking about them makes me smile.
I hope it makes you smile, too!

I see... I think I learned a little bit about that recently.
In this case, the colon is the eyes, right? The p and the parenthesis are the mouths?

what kinds of flowers do you like?
i can bring you some if im ever on your ship

and yes! there are lots of different faces you can make
:D is grinning really big because he's really happy
:'( is crying because he's soooo sad

it can be pretty hard to interpret tone through text sometimes
these help out :)

That's really kind of you, Jade. I'd be happy to see any flowers you want to bring. But I really like dandelions.

:) :) :) :) :) :) :)
So I'm smiling a lot?

its not really that kind!!
it doesnt cost me anything to grow them and i like doing it
so i find excuses where i can, hehe

and yes!
you are smiling bunches :D
