Who: Arthur Kirland and You
Broadcast: n/a
Action: Various places, see headers
When: 22nd-26th

Pathstone/Solace
[The Pathstone might not have been damaged as much as some ships in the fleet, but there were still repairs to be done. And with their former 'super genius' captain (whom he'd never actually got around to meeting, so he'd have to take his crewmates' word on that) missing in action, they were left to Arthur as the engineer. Who knew he'd be so thankful for the augmentation. A space ship was nothing like the engines he'd worked on before.

Arthur was in and out of the ship itself while he worked, either working on repairs inside or ones to the hull and outer systems from the Solace docking port, somewhat splattered and smeared in engine oil. Do excuse him.]


I'd better be able to find some decent tea after this.

Solace: Parks
When he wasn't working on his own ship, Arthur'd taken up a job maintaining a few of the Solace parks. Replacement parts weren't cheap! But on the bright side, Arthur actually liked gardening. Even if these parks all lacked some proper English roses. Still, it was nice to be back in nature after being on a ship for the better part of a month. Well, sort of nature.

He paused from replanting an incredibly generic looking flower to watch the park's resident bird splash around in a birdbath, smiling at the sight. The Brit didn't look up until he heard footsteps behind him, the bird flying off.]

Aye...I suppose folk are more used to these guns but... I cannot quite adjust.

Even so! A little impersonal, although I feel that is not a bad thing, necessarily...

You are familiar with them as well as blades? That is fortunate for you, I deem!

You have lived through a few changes yourself, then?
