Who: Gemini & Open
Broadcast: Nope
Action: On various ships
When: November 5th-Until fleet departs Lagan system.


[Besides the Bishop, Gemini's mostly kept to the waystations and the planet surface while the fleet coasts through the Lagan system, but after the Halloween party she's curious about some of the people she'd met and decides to explore some of the other ships...without their crew's knowledge.

Shuttles are always moving between ships, carrying passengers and items and it's not difficult for her to slip on board, disguising herself as an extra purchase from the waystation or whatever object that will get her onboard without being noticed. Once there she slips into the ducts, watching and waiting until most of the crew are asleep before emerging and taking human form to explore.]

A) Intruder

[Despite appearing to wear boots, Gemini's feet barely make a sound as she walks down the central corridor toward the bridge, striding confidently toward the bridge to access the ship's database.]

B) Crewmate [*see below]

[The cargo bay is dark, but it looks like there's a female figure looking through the storage compartments, but when the light clicks on it's just a crewmate that's blinking back at you a little sheepishly in the sudden bright glare.]

Hey what're you doing up this late?

C) Wildcard

[Noticed anything unusual on your ship? Strange sounds coming from the air ducts, get the sensation you're being watched or happen to see something or someone changing shape?]

A

[reflectedblight]

[Lark couldn't sleep. It wasn't a super rare occurrence, but it was certainly an annoying one. So the only thing left to do was distract herself. She deiced staying on the Paisley would make the most sense and use the least amount of effort, so she went to the ship's bridge to go over her Comm station.

The lights aren't on other than the ones set in place for when the pilot isn't actively piloting and whatever other flashing displays there are, but Lark is perfectly at home in the pitch black of the rest of the room. After all, elves could see just fine in the dark.

It's her rogue training that kicks in and alerts her to the intruder, but not until they're practically on top of her as they enter the bridge. Someone else who could walk quietly as she could, then. Interesting. Glowing green eyes flick to the woman with an intense interest.]

Who are you?

[Honestly, for all Lark knew, she was meant to be on this ship, it wasn't like the elf had discovered every person she now worked with...or bothered to remember their faces yet.]

[stretchy_girl]

[Gemini really hadn't expected anyone to be on the bridge, but it only takes her a moment to spot those glowing green eyes, her own blue orbs narrowing in response.]

None of your business.

[Her arm is already whipping out, the hand on the end of it swelling to three times its normal size to try and grab the Elf.]

[reflectedblight]

[Lark reacts in an instant, slipping out of the chair and out of reach. Rogue training was all well and good, but this was a little different. For just a moment it's as though she vanishes and the smell of copper tinges the air.]

You've made it my business now.

What do you want?

[stretchy_girl]

[When it comes to Gemini there is no such thing as out of reach, but she recognises a teleport when she sees one and knows there's not much point in trying to grab the woman. So she retracts her arm, holding her hands palm out to show she doesn't want a fight until the other gives her an opening to knock her unconscious.]

You're a teleporter aren't you? Useful skill. [Lark gets a little smirk in response to her question that says she's not telling.

[reflectedblight]

I'm not. I don't have magic.

[Her gaze doesn't waver from the intruder and she doesn't offer any further explanation to what the blood magic had given her.]

If you were simply curious about this ship, I would bid you welcome, but you speak like a snake and I can only assume you wish the people on this ship harm.

[stretchy_girl]

I didn't say that you did have magic, but thank you for telling me that's what it was.

[Gemini didn't believe that denial for an instant, and now she's advancing slowly on Lark, her posture distinctly menacing to go with her silkily dangerous tone.]

A snake? That's hardly a way to welcome a visitor now is it?
