open.
Who: Merrill.
Broadcast: Fleet-wide.
Action: SS First Breath, whenever.
When: APR 12 - 18.
Oh. Oh dear.
[ Is it a Welsh pixie? It certainly sounds like one. Pointed ears, short black hair, intricate tattoos across the angular plains of her face. But no, despite the accent, Merrill is neither Welsh, nor pixie.
Currently she's balancing on one bare foot, trying to shake something brown and sloppy off the other. It would be easy to jump to the wrong conclusion at first, but everyone gets a dessert when they arrive, so closer examination will make it clear that she's only stepped in chocolate cream.
Though really, how she's managed that is anyone's guess. ]
I am... so sorry. It wasn't something important, was it? Eugh, it's all slimy.
[ Given she took a while to get used to Kirkwall, a couple of days prowling about the Marsiva and her brand new augment really aren't adequate preparation for the sleek metal and digital displays of a spaceship.
Though later, she might be found in Engineering, trying to work out how she knows anything at all about this strange contraption, but also delighting in the fact that she has all this new knowledge, and more right there to learn about. Merrill isn't very good with people, but she loves magic, and to her view all of this technology isn't too different.
Or you can always call her once she's washed off her feet. ]

The important question here is: What's it smell like?
video;
Not really like anything.
[ She wiggles her toes. ]
It feels sort of cold.
video;
Cold, huh...
[Where has he seen that before? It was just recently, too - !!]
Hold it!
It's pudding! Try tasting it, it's pretty good stuff!
video;
[ She's not familiar with the idea of pudding, but tasting, that she can do. Merrill can't actually put her foot in her mouth, despite managing to do so in a figurative sense quite regularly, so instead she swipes a finger through the pudding on the top of her foot, and then sticks the finger in her mouth.
Whatever, she's an elf, she's eaten dirtier things.
Immediately her expression lights up. ]
Oh! That is good. It's all sweet, but creamy too.
video;
Yeah! That's pudding. Where I come from, we've got all kinds of different flavors. There's vanilla, cheesecake, strawberry, butterscotch... that one's chocolate.
video;
I've heard of strawberries, and butter, but not chocolate! Is it a kind of fruit?
video;
It goes good with fruit! Chocolate's like a sweet treat, and it's been around so long that people found a lot of uses for it. They've made them into bars to eat, powder to put in milk, icing to put on cake... and pudding! And that's just naming a few.

Oh, and I'm Clay. [Don't think he doesn't notice those ears and thinks they're the COOLEST THING EVER either.]
video;
video;
[Although he could say "LIKE THE POKEMON??", but he's pretty sure she wouldn't know what a Pokemon is anyway.]
video;
[ She's a bit flustered about it. ]
Um, if I can ask, what happened to your nose? Did you hurt it?
video;
But Clay won't go into the specifics of it.]
A while ago, yeah. It's okay now, but I came out of it with a pretty ugly scar there! So now I just cover it up.

[ Says the girl with full facial tattoos. ]
