'Meat' 'n Greet

[cityship]

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.]

"You'd be surprised," he said. "What's Security do?"

"Well, they help, you know... keep the peace. Everyone who can needs to be able to fight when it comes down to it, but they're the people in charge of thinking about it most of the time." She looked at him, pursing her lips in thought. "I think he said his minimum cutoff was 18, though."

"I probably have more experience than most of the people on that team."

"You'd be surprised! A lot of people here have been doing this sort of thing for a while. But still," she allowed, "You could always take it up with Leon. He's the department head."

Ben nodded. "What's he look like?"

[starlightace]

"Well," she said, and she tapped a finger on her chin as she thought. "He has blue eyes, and light brown hair that comes down in bangs kind of like this," she used her hands to indicate the hairstyle she meant. "He's kind of average height and build, too. But you'll probably know him from his expression - he always looks serious, or grumpy. I don't think I've ever seen him smile once!"

Okay, so the tone of her voice was slightly playful, but that didn't mean she wasn't being serious.

"Thanks," Ben grinned. "Where should I look for him?"

[starlightace]

"He should be around here somewhere," Nanoha nodded. "He's usually down here to check out the new arrivals and... okay, he's not the best welcoming committee, I'll give you that."

[sithhavecooties.livejournal.com]

"He doesn't have to be friendly. He just has to explain the security setup here."

[starlightace]

"And he can. That'll be easy enough, anyway."

[sithhavecooties.livejournal.com]

He gave her another smile. "Thanks for the help."

[starlightace]

"Not a problem!" She chuckled. "Let me know if I can help with anything else, okay?"

[sithhavecooties.livejournal.com]

"I will," he promised. "And if you hear anything interesting about the Ohm or the ship... let me know, alright?"

[starlightace]

"Definitely," she said with a nod. "Will do!"
