Four Men and a Little Lady???

[got_it_memorized]

Who: The crew of the Tourist and potential visitors
Broadcast: probably not
Action: on the Tourist!
When: The week of April 12-18

[So the Tourist finally gets a female crew member! Hurray for representation! Or something. This is going to make quarters kind of awkward, but at least they have shields now, right?]

[When Colette took a quick gander around the ship, her exploration eventually led her to the crew quarters. But she pauses when she sees someone standing in the doorway. Were they thinking about something? Curious, but not wanting to appear too suddenly, she approaches slowly]

Hello? Are you busy? [he could be staring at the most IMPORTANT THING IN THE UNIVERSE!!! she's not sure, but wants to err on the side of politeness]

[He turns when a voice pipes up from the hallway, and his eyebrows shoot up.]

Oh! Hey there, newbie. It's Colette, right? [He gestures vaguely with one hand.] I saw you on the network, when you first arrived.

Nah, not really. [He glances back into the room and frowns a bit.] Just contemplating sleeping arrangements, is all. I'm Axel, I'm the captain; what'cha need?

[selfless]

Yes, that's me! [oh man, when she hears that he's the captain she stands up straighter and tries to look.... cool? Idk.]

It's really nice to meet you, Axel. I didn't need anything, I was just looking around the ship. [and as she kind of leans to the side so she can peer into the dorm room, it seems that he had just been blocking her way, haha. But anyways, her eyes light up at the room]

Is this where we sleep? Wow, we have our own beds and everything! [bed is a... generous term]

[got_it_memorized]

I can show you around if you want. I mean it's not real big, but I kept getting lost the first few days I was here.

[He frowns at the room, then rubs the back of his neck.]

Well, yeah, everybody gets their own bed, if you can call it that, but... I thought it was a little weird for a girl to sleep in the same room with a bunch of men. We're gonna get another upgrade, so we all get our own rooms, but that won't happen til next month, unfortunately. So I was trying to figure out if we could move one of the beds someplace so you'd have a little more privacy...

[selfless]

Really? Thank you! That would be wonderful. [and she giggles sympathetically at his story. Yeah... she's kind of worried that she'll have the same problem. Oh... and then she's caught of guard by his next statements, but... nods? Slowly]

Oh, um... [she hadn't even thought about it what way] Before I came here, I was with a group that was travelling together. We had a few men with us, but we all slept near each other. So... I really don't mind! But I don't want to make anyone uncomfortable, so I can sleep somewhere else?

[she doesn't know where yet, but she'll figure something out. Set up a sick hammock in the engine room]

[He waves his hands.]

Er-- That's not quite what I meant. I just thought you might be uncomfortable. I'm not kicking you out or anything. [He's a little abashed now.] I guess if it's not a big deal to you, I mean... I don't mind. [He's not quite sure what to make of girls, but mostly because the only exposure he's really had to any on a daily basis was Larxene. And Larxene was grade-A batshit insane.

[He makes a beckoning gesture.]

C'mon, I'll give ya the grand tour. It's a little messy right now, since we lost gravity for a while. Some of Asteffiel's plants came unpotted and got dirt all over the place.
