Of course not. Robin, Mynah. We're good people.

[which he seems genuine about, at the very least. he doesn't seem like he's making fun of her...!]

So, you never answered my question. How old are you?

[transferedfate]

[she stares straight at him, then nods. He does seem genuine, so she'll just believe him]

Seventeen. [...] Sort of. The place where I was at before, we never knew what date it was. But I was sixteen when I left home, and was there for a year... so we'll go with seventeen.

[birdsbirdsbirds]

[what a funny girl. she seems very serious... though, it sounds as though she'd been to one of these nexus' before, just like him, so that could account for it.]

That's good. You're about the same age as Riku and Sora. You seem very worldly, though... [leaning casually back against the sink.] Are you finally sure you're not where you thought you were?

[transferedfate]

Worldly... [does she really? huh... it's kinda nice to hear, but she doesn't comment on it and answers his question instead]

Yeah. If we were still in Haven something would have happened by now, or I would have run into other people that I knew there. [thinking about it still leaves a bitter taste in her mouth, and it shows on her face slightly]

I'm glad I'm not there anymore, but I hate thinking about the people who are probably still stuck there.

[birdsbirdsbirds]

I understand. [there. he won't make fun of her for being wrong.] I came from a pretty bad place before this, too... I don't ever want to go back, but every once in a while I wonder if the others are doing okay, or if they made it out too...

[...depressing! he shrugs.] For what it's worth, you're very welcome on this crew. And if you need anything, just let me know. I'll do what I can.

[transferedfate]

[sympathy shows on her face as he talks about his own past place. And she appreciates not being made fun of :3]

Thanks, I'm grateful to be on a ship that mostly seems to have their act together. [she gives an exaggerated sigh] It's easy to imagine people making a mess of the ship they're given.

[birdsbirdsbirds]

[he laughs! a little suddenly, actually, and he covers his mouth to not be too loud.]

I won't claim that we're perfect, but everyone seems to get along pretty well. And now we've got a lab... It's kind of exciting. Maybe we'll find some kind of alien creature that you need to science.

[transferedfate]

[her instant reaction is something akin to 'auuuugh']

What? Eugh, dissecting frogs in class is one thing, but aliens...

Can I just focus on weird chemistry stuff instead? [it's the biggest thing that she's actually kind of intrigued about]

[birdsbirdsbirds]

[ljfsdf he laughs again.]

All right, all right. But only if you read up on First Aid, too.

[transferedfate]

It's a deal.

[and her tone gets a bit more serious as she asks]

Do you think we'll be needing a healer on board? [even if she knows it's not Haven, she doesn't trust this place]

[birdsbirdsbirds]

Well, no one's been badly injured yet...

[...except for that part where he got his heart ripped out but you know what, that one doesn't count.]

So there's been no need for it in the past. In the future, though, it's hard to say.

[transferedfate]

Well then, I'll make sure not to let you guys down. [RESPONSIBILITY IS SERIOUS BUSINESS!!!!

And lamo Robin you are ridiculous.... she'll be so amused when she hears about the whole heart ripping thing]

[birdsbirdsbirds]

Fantastic. I think we're going to get along well, Mynah.

[he'll reach out and give her a pat on the shoulder. C:]

Want a tour or anything? Not that there's much to point out.

[transferedfate]

[ah... she looks kind of embarrassed by him being so nice and friendly for no reason, but not in a bad way. She's glad her ship isn't full of assholes. A-Anyway, trying to maintain composure she shrugs in a nonchalant way]

If you're not busy, I wouldn't mind. But I don't mind exploring on my own either.

[birdsbirdsbirds]

[yeah gonna kill you with kindness how about that.]

I'm done in the engine room, so I don't mind. I'll show you all the good nooks and crannies.

[transferedfate]

[ssssssh shes loves nice people and thinks they're sweet, huff puff]

Okay, lead the way. [although as they start walking she already thinks of a question and asks]

So if you're an engineer, do you build new machinery for the ship?

[birdsbirdsbirds]

I do. Half of the time it's just fixing stuff that breaks around here... The construction is solid, but most of the parts are old or cheap.

[he pats a wall as he goes...]

I can't decide if Atroma is looking for more ways to trouble our lives... or if they're just cheap and lazy.

[transferedfate]

They could be both? If they can afford crazy equipment to bring us here, then they can afford quality space ships...

But what's the fun in that, right? They probably want to see us squirm a bit.

[birdsbirdsbirds]

I guess it gets them the best of both worlds, you're right... Maybe our ratings get a little higher in exchange, which means more money, but... [he shrugs...] I don't know. The whole thing is bizarre. Definitely not where I expected my life to go...

[transferedfate]

Yeah, if anyone thought their life would go in this direction they were probably crazy from the get go... [she sighs a bit]

Luckily it's just temporary. We'll all get back to our real lives eventually and deal with this idiocy in the meantime.
