[aliased]

Who: Arya Stark
Broadcast: Shipwide
Action: Hospitality Deck
When: A day after she arrived.


The North Remembers.

[ the message is short but that's for a reason. she doesn't know if this place is safe and after exploring it, she wants to know if there's anyone out there.]

Comments

[aliased]

[ no video, no way.]

i've never heard of it. it sounds made up.

[passingthrough]

[Suiiiiit yourself.]

I absolutely do not care if you believe in Japan, oh ye of vague fleet-wide messages.

[aliased]

i don't care if you care.

[passingthrough]

Then we're agreed. So, was North a person or a direction?

[aliased]

it's a place.

[passingthrough]

The place like the one Robb is king of?

[aliased]

[ she stops. her eyes widening as the words echo in her ears.]

robb stark?

[passingthrough]

That's the guy. I'll take that as a yes.

[aliased]

[ she doesn't recognize this person at all.]

do you know him?

[passingthrough]

We're acquainted. How do you know him?

[aliased]

he's here?

[passingthrough]

He is. Now did I just tell a friend of his or an enemy? [Either way his name would have been on the ship manifest. It may have taken this person time to find that, but hardly something a person could truly keep secret.]

[aliased]

friend. i am his friend. [ his sister.]

where is he?

[passingthrough]

I'm not telling words on the screen that.

[aliased]

why not?

[passingthrough]

Because he seems like a nice, honorable guy, and I don't really know your intentions. [And she's nosy since this wouldn't be that hard to find out through other avenues and if they are newly arrived as she suspects they can't get off the Marsiva right now anyway.]

[aliased]

my intentions? i don't have any.

[passingthrough]

Then why do you want to know?

[aliased]

because i know him. because we can protect each other. and if you won't help me, i'll find him myself.

Private

[passingthrough]

[She makes an adjustment to the security of their connection.] I've secured our line. It's not impenetrable, but it's relatively safe. [Someone would a communications augment would have to take interest enough to hack it.] Show yourself and say that again and I might tell you. Otherwise, you can find him yourself.

Re: Private

[aliased]

[ she considers her options. can this person be trusted? she looks strange and she speaks nonsense. ]

i don't know you. [ why should she trust her? ]

how do you know robb stark?

Private

[passingthrough]

I'm Kitty Pryde. One of the X-Men which you've never heard of. From Chicago, a place you've never heard of.

I met him on the moon. He asked me a question and we started talking. Then we danced together at a masquerade ball. [Not the world's deepest connection, but they were nice talks. Of course she had to put him in check when he teased Tyrion's size. She wasn't having that.]

Private

[aliased]

you danced with him? [ gross. dancing.]

Private

[passingthrough]

If you are a girlfriend of his from back home it was just a dance. I'm with someone else.

[aliased]

girlfriend? what's that mean? i'm not jealous if that's what you mean.
