Video

[sizzle]

Who: Zuko
Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action: SS Bishop
When: Now

[ When the video starts up the face on the screen sure doesn't look happy, but then again it so rarely does. ]

I've been here long enough to have gotten my bearings, so I won't waste time with that. Right now there's only one thing I want to know, and I refuse to believe no one can answer that for me.

[ His jaw sets. And he does his best to make sure it looks like he's standing up straight and means business here. Even over video he wants to come across as having a certain air of "no nonsense allowed". ]

I'll keep it short. Tell me who or what is Atroma, and where can I find them.

Comments

[ladiesss]

[hey, uh, totally unrelated, but a gothy-looking teenage girl pops her head into the room that Zuko is in. she speaks very quietly.]

Oh, we did get a new guy.

[sizzle]

[ Not quietly enough that he doesn't hear her. He whips around almost immediately, going full suspicion mode, because that's just how he rolls. ]

Who are you?

[ Demanding that answer.

Not assuming, hey... crew member, like most of the people on the ship. ]

this is a super-late tag I'm sorry

[ladiesss]

Uh...

[she kind of. stares at that crazy scar he has going on over one of his eyes. not for very long, but it's just long enough to know that's obviously what she was just looking at. she frowns, staying behind most of the doorway.]

...The personnel officer? Former captain. Resident librarian. [an awkward pause.] ...My name's Krista.

It's okay! I'm a bit late on everything right now myself

[sizzle]

[ He keys in on one of those things in particular.

The fact that she's a librar-- No, okay, not really that. ]

Former captain? Why were you stripped of the title?

p-phew ;w;

[ladiesss]

[she didn't mean to make it a thing, and now she's trying really hard not to make it more of a thing... she at least finally steps out where she can be totally seen. she looks relatively harmless, unless you think dark jeans are scary.]

Oh... No, I wasn't like, kicked out or anything. I stepped down.

[her eyes get a little wide, with the severity of it--] Oh, man, you totally missed the attack and everything, huh. You're gonna have some catching up to do.

[sizzle]

[ Dark jeans aren't scary as much as they are a little confusing for him, because that particular material isn't one his world has a whole lot of.

He stands up straighter. Now there's some news that he wants to hear. Not because he's excited about it, but it sounds like something important to know. ]

What attack? What happened?
