'Meat' 'n Greet

The rest of the crew assembled on the Observation Deck to meet the latest editions to their numbers. After the revelation that their worlds are gone, many of them are even more eager to see people they knew from home.

Several people are set up near the doors to provide the new people with omnicoms and comm rings. New crew-mates might see a green-skinned alien and snake girl among their number. There are also several authoritative-looking figures ready to introduce themselves.

There's a lot to tell the new people. It's going to be a lot to take in.

[ooc: Only new characters and Command Staff can start new threads for introductions, to limit the number of threads. Everyone else, just tag in and have your guys greet the newbies.]

Well, shit.

Trudy had hoped the kid would find her parents as soon as they got among other people. The sheer amount of other people made it possible - probable - that if the kid's parents had been grabbed up by aliens at the same time she had...

But maybe they hadn't. Trudy revised her estimation of the situation. "Maybe they're still asleep," she said. "Let's wait and see if we can find whoever's in charge, they might be able to tell you if your parents are here."

"Um... okay." She continued to scan the crowd, looking to see if there was anyone she recognized.

Someone... anyone...

There was one person. She was surprised to see him, actually. Slowly, she loosened her grip on Trudy's hand.

"I think I see someone I know, actually..." She hesitated, though, the way a child should.

"Okay, that's a good start. Who is it you see?"

Yes, please, see someone you know so you can go bother them I am a soldier not a babysitter!

But despite all her griping, Trudy wasn't going to let the girl wander off in the middle of that throng of people without making sure the kid saw someone she recognized.

She pointed to Tom one thread up standing not too far away from the two of them. Aftran had never actually met him on duty, but Karen had met him a few times down at the Pool. Someone she knew for sure to be a fellow Controller was a relief.

"Mr. Berenson," she said to Trudy. "He's a friend of mine. I... I think I'll be okay on my own..."

Trudy looked up, seeing the other... well, he was a kid too, but at least he was old enough to look after this one. And man, was she ever glad to get rid of this one. "Okay kiddo. Just make sure you don't get lost between here and there."

She let go of Karen's hand and resolved to track the kid through the crowd. She didn't want any little girls getting lost or kidnapped on her watch.

Aftran nodded nervously, one more time, and made her way through the crowd.

Finally. That woman had been annoying.
