001 || video & action

[pirasea]

Who: Isabela and everyone ever (or anyone who wants to talk to her, at least)
Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action: SS Huntress, or Marsiva if you can catch her in the brief time before she's assigned her ship.
When: In the hours pre-shuffle and just post-shuffle

[When Isabela wakes up the first thing she does is check for daggers. Which are, of course, absent. She checks both her surroundings and her person.]

Shit.

[Unsurprisingly voicing her frustration doesn't help. There doesn't even seem to be anything she can use as a makeshift weapon. Cautiously, she bends down to retrieve a rather magnificent hat that seems to have fallen off while she was still out. She feels around in that too. Just in case. Any concealed weapons it might have held at one time are no longer there, however.

Is it even possible for her to look any more pissed off? Evidently so.]

They take your weapons.

[She chimes in empathetically, if not exactly helpfully.]

But at least they leave any other gear you have on your person. So that's a slight upside.

[Video]

[pirasea]

If I can't slit the throats of the bastards who did this I'd hardly call it an upside.

[Video]

[child_of_bhaal]

But your throat isn't being split [or worse], so you might have the opportunity in the future. That's not an upside?

[Video]

[pirasea]

That is true, I suppose... it does give me extra time to plot my revenge.

[Which given the thoughtful tone of her voice she's probably doing now.]

[Video]

[child_of_bhaal]

See? There's a sunny side to every situation if you look hard enough.

[She's clearly being very tongue in cheek with her tone. But really, there are worse things to wake up to than a lack of weapons. Way worse.]

[Video]

[pirasea]

How silly of me to have missed it.

I don't suppose you know where they hide all the ones they've taken?

[Video]

[child_of_bhaal]

I wish I knew. They've given me a "gun" thing, since they made me a security person, but I just... It's not my swords.

[Video]

[pirasea]

At least it's something... where could I get one of those?

[She'd rather have her daggers, but she'll take what she can get.]

[Video]

[child_of_bhaal]

What's your augment?

[Video]

[pirasea]

Pilot.

[Video]

[child_of_bhaal]

Ah, well, ask whoever does security on the ship you're permanently placed on. They give us guns, and smaller weapons for everyone else.

[Which is totally unfair in her opinion.]

[Video]

[pirasea]

[More displeasing news. Just what she wanted.]

At least from what I hear that will be soon... I just hope whoever's in charge of weapons doesn't decide to make things difficult.

The people here are good folk. I doubt your crew will give you any trouble over it.

[Video]

[pirasea]

If not, I'm sure I'll find some way to convince them.

[Video]

[child_of_bhaal]

Refuse to drive, I'm sure that would be convincing enough after what happened earlier this month.

[Video]

[pirasea]

And what might that be?

[Video]

[child_of_bhaal]

We were attacked out in space. The ships that didn't have pilots couldn't move.

[It was super inconvenient.]

So having a pilot is obviously pretty necessary. I think you'll have plenty of sway.

[Video]

[pirasea]

[Now that is good to hear.]

I like your thinking. You'll have to acquaint me more thoroughly with it one day.

[Video]

[child_of_bhaal]

That's certainly an interesting way of saying we might get to know one another.

[Video]

[pirasea]

You seem rather interesting yourself. Do you have a name?

[Video]

[child_of_bhaal]

["Interesting". Well, she could probably promise that.]

I do. According to Hawke, they're giving them out at birth now!

[ Ha ha(?)!]

It's Syeira. Pleasure to meet you Miss...?

[Video]

[pirasea]

I'm surprised he knows. He so rarely uses his own.

[Not that. Isabela uses the name her mother chose for her either, but...]

Isabela. Admiral Isabela.
