Who: Jill Valentine
Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action: Heron + Iskaulit
When: July 18th onward


Hey, two questions.

Are there cameras in the bathrooms? And does anyone know a good place to start growing plants? If you have somewhere, I will gladly exchange piano lessons, fighting (and weaponry) assessment and suggestions, or some sort of favor (within reason). I'm afraid I don't really have much in way of cash right now.

Last but not least (not a question), if anyone would care to buddy up for a little good ol' fashioned exploring, then I'm your gal.

[ She doesn't ask if it's a nickname or short for anything. She's been there with her own name (it is not short for Gillian), so it's not something she really considers for that reason alone. ]

Nice to meet you, Peebee. Might be it's where we don't have access to that's possibly special?

I don't know. I think its a little smaller than the other ships. I really only have the Marsiva and Iskaulit to compare it to (which it pales in). Is there anything specific you might want me to look out for that's "interesting"?

Otherwise, I'm currently in the gym on Iskaulit. Your trip should give me enough time to finish up and not be covered in sweat!

[pb_n_jocular]

[Probably a good thing that she doesn't ask because she wouldn't get a straight answer anyway.]

Iskaulit it is! I'll head over! We'll start from there and just see what catches our fancy

[torsion]

Alright. I'll stick around the gym so I'm easy to find.

Only one in here right now. I'm on the shorter side and I've got brown hair, pulled back into a ponytail. Blue compression top, grey pants.

[ She does not think to mention she's human. ]

[pb_n_jocular]

See you there!

[By this point Peebee has resigned herself to the face that practically everyone here is human. That's okay, though, because humans are fascinating creatures with short life spans who tend to just dive right in to whatever.]

[On the flip side, she doesn't think to mention she's asari.]

[She arrives at the gym in all her blue and purple resplendence, looking around for whoever might fit that description. Once she spots the other woman, she shoots a hand in the air and waves eagerly as if they're already old friends.]

Hey, Jill! It's me; Peebee!

[torsion]

[ This sure isn't a thing where she's from, but she doesn't seem surprised or worried in any way when approached. Peebee is humanoid and doesn't seem ready to unhinge her jaw and attack her and that's all that matters.

Jill's clean and dry with a towel around her neck as she wipes the weights clean (who doesn't clean up their weights?), making sure to inspect them, hunched over with a wave and wide smile. ]

Hey, Peebee. You know, I'm really going to have to get used to this whole alternate universe thing. [ She doesn't bring anything else up, though she is curious. Maybe at a later point in time. It's only fair she offers any information in return if there's a curiosity there. It should be exchanged. She finishes wiping down the bench and sighs before quickly crossing to discard the thin paper towels she'd been using. ] Anyway, done here. Feeling good after working out, so now's the time to go. Got anywhere specific you'd like to start or should we just wander?

[pb_n_jocular]

Eeeeh, I've been there ... well, different galaxies, at least. So long as you don't mind giving up everything you had before with no way to go back, it's no big deal. Of course, back then we actually had a choice about whether or not to go. This was a lot more like kidnapping. [Peebee raises her arms in an exaggerated shrug.]

I am good with just wandering! That's how you find all the best things, usually.

[torsion]

Honestly, still more experienced than me in that case. Just one planet where I'm from and space travel is in its infancy. [ To put it mildly. It's barely travel when they can only go so far and live through so much, even in the ship. ] Typically I consider being taken against my will to be kidnapping, so that's for certain.

[ She hasn't really even looked much. She knew there was a gym and two bars, a garden, and apparently some sort of faith center... but this place is absolutely huge. Even if there's nothing secretive that will give information to their situation, they'll at least be familiarized with it if they give it a look around. If the rumors are true, it might mean that they may need to know where to go at a moment's notice. One can never be too prepared. ]

Well then, here's to the best things. [ Jill's polite enough to not rush ahead, languid steps until she's certain that they're headed off together. ] I know there are a few businesses beyond this here, but I'd like to see if we can maybe get into any kind of duct work, if that's alright with you? Don't know if it'd be dangerous.

[pb_n_jocular]

Duct work? I am totally up for that. Sneakin' around like a couple of jewel thieves, it's perfect. I hope there's some juicy secret plot we'll be able to uncover.

[She's hardly concerned if it's dangerous or not.]

[torsion]

Just gotta see if we can find an entrance. There's bound to be something on this ship, right? [ She half-laughs to Peebee's enthusiasm, her smile hitting her eyes with a slant. Honestly, it's kind of fun to do this for reasons that aren't life or death (to her knowledge) rather than trying to escape or enter somewhere like that. ] I mean, considering all of -- [ A vague gesture with both of her hands, meaning not just this ship but the entire fleet. ] -- this, wouldn't you say there's something more to it?

[ Honestly, isn't it just as likely to find something just because they thought it would make good television? Maybe it would be a plant in that case, but there must be something worth seeing. ]

Bonus, I guess there's two bars here so if we get bored or tired we can just drink until we hit second wind?

[ How encouraging. ]
