open mingle post;

Who: Everyone on the waystation!
Broadcast: n/a
Action: open to everyone to tag into
When: October 11, 2014

[It sure is a lovely day actually pretty much indeterminate time period out here in the vast darkness of space, isn't it? I bet everyone's enjoying themselves, getting a chance to get off their dinky little ship and stretch their legs. Even on this shitty, empty little waystation.

Where are you, droot flooters? What are you up to? Stay out of trouble, now.]


[ooc: hi everyone! I thought I'd give this a try and see how the game liked it. What we have here is a mass mingle post. Rather than everyone making a bunch of different posts about landing on the station, everyone is invited to post a parent comment with their character out and about, doing something. Everyone else is invited to look at who's posted, tag them, post their own parent comments, thread jack, tag around and generally have a grand old time! It should hopefully be a nice low-pressure way to do some action tagging with each other.

Please tag in if you feel so inclined! Don't be shy to tag around!]

I suppose you'll have a bit more time now...it may just be true for my own talents, but it's wise to gain understanding of as many things as you can.

I'll be glad to share them with you.

I would like that. [She reaches over and squeezes Emblica's shoulder again.] And I'm glad to have met you!

[ What a good little sister, Hange. ]

Thank you...I am too, I really am.

You've been dealing with some scary stuff all alone, huh? Well, Emblica, you don't have to do these things by yourself now.
amarant: (lavender)

[personal profile] amarant 2014-10-17 10:51 pm (UTC)(link)
[ She'll still try to do things herself first, but... ]

You're far too generous, Miss Hange.

[personal profile] aberrant_type 2014-10-17 10:52 pm (UTC)(link)
Hardly. Things are easier when you're working in tandem with another person.

[personal profile] amarant 2014-10-17 11:00 pm (UTC)(link)
It doesn't mean others want to work with another, much of the time.

I suppose it depends on your circumstances. In mine, often teamwork is synonymous with survival.
amarant: (white violet)

[personal profile] amarant 2014-10-17 11:08 pm (UTC)(link)
Where I come from, teamwork is just a way to let others take credit for what you do.

[omg she laughs] I suppose some of that might happen too! But if scouts come back alive, they should be happy no matter what.

Maybe the people where I lived are just too selfish.
aberrant_type: (noble.)

[personal profile] aberrant_type 2014-10-18 07:09 pm (UTC)(link)
Maybe you didn't meet the best people.
amarant: (olive)

[personal profile] amarant 2014-10-18 07:13 pm (UTC)(link)
It's very possible.
aberrant_type: (cheerful directed serious.)

[personal profile] aberrant_type 2014-10-18 07:54 pm (UTC)(link)
Have you spoken to Nunnally, Emblica?
amarant: (bellflower)

[personal profile] amarant 2014-10-18 07:57 pm (UTC)(link)
Ah-- yes, I have.
aberrant_type: (conversational.)

[personal profile] aberrant_type 2014-10-18 08:03 pm (UTC)(link)
She's a kind, goodhearted girl. Why don't you try reaching out to her a little more?
amarant: (cypress)

[personal profile] amarant 2014-10-18 08:07 pm (UTC)(link)
...I can do that.

[ As long as that doesn't require telling her the same stuff she told Hange......... ]
aberrant_type: (swiggity swag)

[personal profile] aberrant_type 2014-10-18 08:11 pm (UTC)(link)
[She wouldn't ask that of Emblica.]

Good! Let me know how it goes.
amarant: (marigold)

[personal profile] amarant 2014-10-18 08:15 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Oh, good. Maybe someday, but.. ]

She's nice...she said she was happy to have a friend her own age.
aberrant_type: (cheerful directed serious.)

[personal profile] aberrant_type 2014-10-18 08:17 pm (UTC)(link)
[Given how Emblica's real age doesn't match her apparent one in the slightest, Hange can see how that wouldn't be the most delightful thing to hear. She pauses slightly, unsure of what to say...]

Her error is understandable. You can still build a genuine friendship with her even if she doesn't know the truth about that.
amarant: (cypress)

[personal profile] amarant 2014-10-18 08:20 pm (UTC)(link)
[ It's mostly that she feels bad for Nunners... ]

Could you really call it "genuine," in this case?

Of course, I'd rather not lie to her, but I wouldn't want to hurt her with the truth, either.
aberrant_type: (soft.)

[personal profile] aberrant_type 2014-10-19 05:53 am (UTC)(link)
Perhaps if she asks you again, you should explain it to her.

If you brought it up, I don't think it's plausible she'd reject you.
amarant: (marigold)

[personal profile] amarant 2014-10-19 02:58 pm (UTC)(link)
Either way, I'm betraying her trust, aren't I? It's normal for people to be unhappy about that.
aberrant_type: (pop them glasses up :>)

[personal profile] aberrant_type 2014-10-20 09:38 pm (UTC)(link)
What's worse: allowing her misconception to extend for a long time without correcting it, or bringing it up and coming clean early?
amarant: (cypress)

[personal profile] amarant 2014-10-21 12:38 am (UTC)(link)
[ Dammit, Hange, why do you have to be so right. ]

...I know. This was all so much easier when I wasn't getting involved with people.
