[deshabille]

Who: Mal
Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action: SS Caprine
When: After the shuffle!


[The first thing she did once she got a good handle on exactly what was going on - which, for the record, she did not need help with, she is a perfectly capable and independent adult vampire, it's fine - was dive into the engine room and begin to pull things apart. There is knowledge brimming out of her mind that she has no origin for or control over, it's chaotic and it's mad and she loves it.]

[She broadcasts from the engine room, looking at a wrench admiringly. She's messy and a little greasy, but it's a suave sort of messy and greasy. Gods only know how she manages this.]

I'd be interested to know how many people are actually upset about this. Being here. Because I know all sorts of things now that I never could have known before, and that's worth something, I think.

Also, have there ever been any riots here? I think I could do with a good riot sometime soon.

ACTION

[principality]

[And here is Aziraphale, peeking his head around the corner and holding a mug of cocoa.]

Umm????

[Which is as good as hello, and then he looks at the wrench.]

...are you new? Or are you, er, just disassembling for fun? N-not that I'd stop your fun but, umm, I'd have rather you asked.

[ video ]

[forcemageure]

No riots - to my knowledge - but you did just miss a load of exploding things.

[ Tragedy face :{ ]

ACTION

[deshabille]

[It is the least commanding series of words Mal has ever heard. She peers around a pipe and drops the wrench to the floor with a deliberately loud clatter, giving Aziraphale a piercing look.]

You didn't ask me to ask. So I didn't ask.

[onlyanapple]

Personally, I find it less miserable than a soul-eating castle, and less tedious than my actual life. [Discounting the last week. Which was not tedious. At all.]

No good ones.

[ video ]

[deshabille]

[A noise of utter disgust!]

The one time arriving fashionably late has failed me.

ACTION

[principality]

[He jumps at the wrench being dropped. It's a thing. He is a wee lamb.]

Er. Oh, perhaps I should have. Good point.

[And then he nods a little.]

I'm Captain Ziraphale. And you are...?

Video

[deshabille]

There was a soul-eating castle in space? I can't imagine where you'd put it.

ACTION

[deshabille]

[She straightens up, wipes her greasy hands on her trousers, offers one to shake. For politeness's sake.]

Corporal Maladict. [A slight, impudent upward tilt of her chin.] I'm not expected to report to you, am I?

[onlyanapple]

No no, it was in it's own little...dimension. Very magical.

[Video]

[child_of_bhaal]

Do you think learning a new skill is worth your freedom though?

[She's not hostile at all, she's just honestly curious.]

[Video]

[deshabille]

Probably not. I'll get angry about it later. Just you wait.

Although I have to point out it's not technically learning if the information is just dumped into your head like this.

[deshabille]

Well, yes, I don't know of any non-magical things that eat souls.

[Video]

[child_of_bhaal]

I'm more frustrated than angry. I'm still looking for the exit too.

But no that's true, it's really not learning when it's force fed to us like this. Is it itchy for anyone else? Is it just me?

[Video]

[deshabille]

It's not itchy, it's marvelous. Incredibly suspicious, yes. But marvelous. We don't have anything like this at home.

[Video]

[child_of_bhaal]

We do. Well, I met a dragon that did it to me once.

[She still thinks it feels itchy.]

[onlyanapple]

I'm sure there's some alien, organic creature that does.

Haven't seen one here though, so it's a start.

[volatilise]

Count me in. For being upset, but also for rioting, if you need it.

[video]

[grabthecheese]

We wouldn't have had a use for it before, either.

[Because what use would the Borogravian military have for a space ship engineer-- Well, they could have waged war on other planets, too.]

Which ship are you on?

[video]

[deshabille]

[They could have waged such amazing war. Mal will definitely never tell anyone about this if she manages to get home. That said: technically she doesn't need to get home now, since Polly's here.]

The Caprine. Welcome to space, sergeant, have you taken charge of your ship yet?

[video]

[grabthecheese]

They made me Captain.

[Should she be smug? She's a little bit smug, even as she's been telling herself the assignment was random.]

I see you're working hard already, corporal.

[video]

[deshabille]

They made you Captain?

[MAL WAS TOTALLY JOKING, what the fuck. She doesn't know whether to be pleased or annoyed about this. She also doesn't know if that last comment is sarcastic or not.]

Well. It's a bit fun.

[video]

[grabthecheese]

Shouldn't they have?

[Yep, definitely smug now. Also, she's mostly just amused by the grease, and a lot little bit impressed she's still looking so suave.]

It looks a bit... taken apart.

[ video ]

[forcemageure]

Always a tragedy when that happens. Though you do seem to have dressed for the occasion! That's something, surely.

[ A suave sort of messy and greasy indeed. ]

[invigorates]

I cannot say I am entirely displeased with the knowledge I have gained in this venture, [ she is actually pretty excited about it! but... ] Most here seem more annoyed by the fact that they have been forcefully pulled from their homes. I believe that is a reasonable response.

[detectivewonder]

No. No riots.
