Who: Kai Gracen and Open
Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action: The Marsiva
When: Now

I’m figuring that at some point I’m going to get an explanation, or one of my guns back, or something. Because I’m not really likely to die of boredom, no matter how long I’m left here.

[And while boredom is a lot better than most of the alternatives, Kai would still rather have some kind of weapon.]

And I can still bite, if it comes to that.

[Kai shows his teeth and it looks like in addition to having pointy ears and purple eyes, he also has fangs.

He lets out a half-sigh after that.]

Seriously though. What is it I’m supposed to be doing here? I can’t see much use for a Stalker.

I see your ears clearly enough. Are you not Elven too? (He has never been called Elfin in his memory, but worlds differ.) It does not matter to me either way and I do not know what you mean by "kind of thing".

I am but one Elf, though some of my family is present within the fleet. We do not have a court or wish for one.

[halfbloodhatchling]

Technically, but I'm closer to the humans who raised me.

Good. I'll take care of myself.

[castintoflames]

I am glad you had such.

I wish you well.

[halfbloodhatchling]

Sure.

You have a name and a ship?

[Mostly so Kai can avoid him, but Kai's not going to offer that information.]

[castintoflames]

I am Maedhros and I am aboard the Huntress. (As are most of his family members aside from one cousin.)

[halfbloodhatchling]

I'm Kai and I'll find out where I end up.

[castintoflames]

I have not heard of a poor ship or crew yet.

[halfbloodhatchling]

Keep a close eye on these things?

[castintoflames]

I get the feeling you are...suspicious? (His scarred features are carefully schooled.) The longer you remain amongst the fleet, the more you notice. I was a crew member on another ship before this one.

[halfbloodhatchling]

Of course I'm bloody suspicious. But I'll see for myself soon enough.
