Who: briony vincent
Broadcast: anyone. come at me.
Action: marsiva
When: 4/5, afternoon

[ None of this seems possible. In fact, it all seems like some crazy dream, maybe someone drugged her. But when pinching herself doesn't do more than leave her arm red and sore, Briony starts to wonder if maybe being drugged would be preferable to what is apparently reality. The really weird part is how much of it all makes sense to her. Space, the ships, how to work these weird machines... And she's never been much of a fan of science-fiction, either.

So she's communicating with folks now by use of those nifty communication stations, at least trying to look proper and like she doesn't want to throttle someone. ]

Alright, well...I don't quite know what I'm doing here, and I know someone's going to want to explain that, but you really don't have to do that because, well, I don't really care-- sorry.

[ She is so not sorry. ]

And I'd just rather know how to leave peacefully because I don't think anyone wants there to be trouble, right?

[ She looks like she's looking for something in a purse. Unfortunately, when she does pull out what she seemed to be looking for (a book), absolutely nothing happens. Thaaaat'll put a damper on things.

Just not her temper. ]

Oh, what-- this shit isn't funny at all!

[ Cutting the feed then. If any Marsiva folks are around, feel free to make fun of her. Or just watch out so you don't get hit by the book she's tossing behind herself with absolutely no thought given to who is around. ]

I am afraid, for the time being, there is no way out of here.

We are working on it, though.

[volatilise]

Working on it, huh? How's that going?

[ She sounds...uh, skeptical. ]

[puro]

Noooot as well as we want.

[volatilise]

So...no progress?

[puro]

Not yet. No.

[volatilise]

Fucking stellar. Anything else going on, then?

[puro]

Right now? No. We're between planets.

Oh! Excuse me! [ahaha, I'm sorry... Briony... But a blonde girl is hurrying over to you, and looking at you like you are the LITERAL MOST IMPRESSIVE PERSON THAT SHE'S EVER SEEN]

You know how to use that magitech to talk to other people?

action

[volatilise]

[ Well, she is impressive... ]

Eh? Yeah, it just kind of...dunno, makes sense to me.

action

[selfless]

Do you mind if I watch you use it for a moment? I think I'll understand it with a little practice.

action

[volatilise]

Knock yourself out.

[ Don't actually do that, you're clumsy but don't take that literally please ]

What'd you call this thing again?

action

[selfless]

Magitech.

Is that... not what it's called?

action

[volatilise]

Hell if I know. It just looks like a big telephone with a screen.

[video]

[delincuente]

Aw, c'mon, trouble's the best part.

[She notices the girl searching in her bag, though, and raises an eyebrow.]

Did something get taken?

[video]

[volatilise]

Trouble's only good if you're the one causing it. I don't think they want my kind of trouble.

[ She...kind of smiles, but it's obvious she's more than a little frustrated with all this. ]

Something...they cleared out what they wanted. Left my train pass, but doesn't look like I'll be getting to use that anytime soon.

[ Still rifling through her stuff. ]

Oh, they let me keep my house key too, that's real goddamn useful right now.

[delincuente]

I like the way you think.

[Alex gives a little smirk back, but her brow is a little furrowed.]

Who took it? I didn't think they did that here. Seemed pretty chill to me.

[volatilise]

I don't know who did it, but when I do...

[ Oh good, they also left her makeup. ]

...who steals a lighter and leaves the cigarettes, anyway?

[delincuente]

I'd give you a light, but I'm stuck out on this station for, like, the rest of forever.

[A light with her wand, of course, since she doesn't have a lighter - though she's still dumb enough to think smoking's cool and doesn't want to say that.]

[volatilise]

And I'm stuck...I guess over here. Looks like that option's off the table.

[ Frowns slightly. She could...really use a smoke right about now. ]

[birdsbirdsbirds]

You're... going to say that a lot, over the next couple of weeks.

[hello, girl. there is a guy waving a little from over the video feed.]

Welcome to the fleet, ma'am.

video

[volatilise]

What, how I'm not laughing? I don't much like repeating myself, though.

[ Shrugs, taking another brief look around. ]

Least someone here's got manners, I appreciate that.

video

[birdsbirdsbirds]

I do try. [smiling, politely.] Do you need any questions answered? Aside from the obvious "why am I here" and "how do I leave", since no one's quite figured those out yet.

video

[volatilise]

[ Heaves a sigh and looks like she's ready to start counting off the things to ask. No, but she'll go easy. ]

Why'd they take my shit, when can I get my shit back, am I getting paid for this, and...

[ Oh right, the other pressing issue. ]

I need a lighter too, they swiped mine.

video

[birdsbirdsbirds]

Okay. Easy. No idea where they took your shit, no one's gotten their shit back yet so that's in the air, you are being paid for this right now, and...

[he's counting these off on his fingers. that last one...]

Not sure about the lighter. You might find one once you can get to a station.

video

[volatilise]

Great, thanks for...a little bit better than nothing, I guess.

[ This would be the part where a nicer person apologized, but...well, Briony isn't a nicer person, sadly. ]

They at least giving me money I can use? I have some from home, but I feel like they don't take it in fucking space.

[ Of all the times to not be able to smoke. ]
