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. ]

[ But he doesn't say it cruelly. He just admits it, tilting his head as he watches her. He is neither Dalish nor a City elf, which he imagines will be enjoyable for her to try and discern. ]
But my name is Solas.
video.
Oh, I'm sorry! Though that's not... I'm Merrill. Cole mentioned you, when we spoke.
video.
[ He softens at the name, his features almost tender at the mention of Cole. ]
I hope it was a good mention.

[ But he is very curious. ]
You have experience with the eluvian?
video.
Well, I... had one of my own, actually. In Kirkwall. It was broken, but I was so close to fixing it. I spent years learning how.
video.
[ He doesn't look irritated or disappointed. He looks... Curious. ]
Can you tell me more? About the process, about what you did.
video.
video.
[ And he says it so calmly that it's almost serene; something he just believes. ]
What was your interest in it, if you don't mind? It's not often that one comes across an eluvian, especially with the intent to use it.
