Meet-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 tall man in green armor 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.]

Nunnally brightened up when the other girl introduced herself; someone else her age was here, so that was reassuring. An Eleven-- no, a Japanese girl. Actually, even that wasn't for certain, not until Nunnally figured out exactly what was going on.

She smiled. "I'm Nunnally. It's nice to meet you, Hikari!"

Hikari smiled. "It's nice to meet you too Nunnally."

She frowned then, looking around. "Have you met many other people here yet?"

"Ah, I met a woman with a big dog... And I heard a voice talking in my head when I first woke up. Someone named Stacy, I think?"

Hikari nodded. "I'm not sure who that woman with the dog is, she must be new... but Stacy's the ship..."

"The ship?" Nunnally just stared blankly. "I'm afraid I don't understand. She talked to us."

[identity profile] chosenlightchld.livejournal.com 2010-10-02 11:13 pm (UTC)(link)
"Well, I guess it'd be more accurate to say that Stacy's the ship's AI, I guess," Hikari answered.

[identity profile] heretic-witch.livejournal.com 2010-10-02 11:16 pm (UTC)(link)
"Oh! She's a computer?" Nunnally paused to take that in, frowning a moment. "So, then... I suppose we really aren't in our own world anymore, are we?"

[identity profile] chosenlightchld.livejournal.com 2010-10-02 11:28 pm (UTC)(link)
Hikari nodded. "Yeah. We're really not home anymore, and it might be a while before we can find anyone else from our world on the ship. It's pretty big..."

It must be, Nunnally realized; she hadn't even realized it was a "ship" until now. "I see... But, I'm sure we will find them sooner or later. I saw a lot of those pods when I woke up; there are probably lots more people inside them, right?"

[identity profile] chosenlightchld.livejournal.com 2010-10-02 11:40 pm (UTC)(link)
Hikari nodded. "Yeah, there is. But if any of them will come out is a different matter all together."

She shook her head. "Sorry if I sounded a bit depressed, sometimes it still get's to me, even now."

"How long have you been awake?" Nunnally should have asked that sooner, really. But it hadn't really hit her, until just now, that some of these people might have been here for a very long time.

Hikari blinked, trying to think for a moment. "I think I've been here since around... April? Wow, it's really been a while."

[identity profile] heretic-witch.livejournal.com 2010-10-02 11:50 pm (UTC)(link)
"But it's April no--" She cut herself off; it likely wasn't. "Ah, what month is it now?" she asked sheepishly.

[identity profile] chosenlightchld.livejournal.com 2010-10-02 11:54 pm (UTC)(link)
Hikari blinked. "It's October," she said, before realizing that duh, Nunnally's sense of time would be all messed up depending on when it was she was put in her pod.

"Ah. It must have been tough." It wasn't difficult for her to sound empathetic; it had been only a couple of weeks since she'd last seen her brother, but it felt like so much longer. "But once we do our part to stop these Ohm people, we should be able to go home. Right?"

[identity profile] chosenlightchld.livejournal.com 2010-10-02 11:58 pm (UTC)(link)
Hikari nodded. "Yeah, I've heard that there's a chance that our worlds could be restored after we finish dealing with the Ohm. It's really all the hope a lot of us have to hold on to..."

[identity profile] heretic-witch.livejournal.com 2010-10-03 12:01 am (UTC)(link)
"Restored?"

Oh. Of course. Stacy hadn't outright said it, but it made sense considering what she'd said about the Ohm. Destroyers of worlds...

"Oh," Nunnally said simply, a little quieter.

[identity profile] chosenlightchld.livejournal.com 2010-10-03 12:04 am (UTC)(link)
Hikari frowned. "You... didn't know?"

[identity profile] heretic-witch.livejournal.com 2010-10-03 12:06 am (UTC)(link)
"I didn't realize," she replied. "I... I guess I should have, huh?"

[identity profile] chosenlightchld.livejournal.com 2010-10-03 12:09 am (UTC)(link)
Hikari shook her head, moving a bit closer to Nunnally... although she wasn't sure if she should give the other girl a hug or not. "I guess... it depends. I mean, I had to fight to save my world before so I guess it just came to me a bit easier..."

[identity profile] heretic-witch.livejournal.com 2010-10-03 12:13 am (UTC)(link)
"You did? Ah... I had to sit that fight out," Nunnally admitted. "I mean, it wasn't the same fight as yours, probably, anyway." She was babbling, so she stopped; and when she thought about it, maybe she had saved the world, although she'd been the one threatening it in the first place. "Ah, it's all right. I'm sure I can handle it, Hikari. But thanks for letting me know."

[identity profile] chosenlightchld.livejournal.com 2010-10-03 12:31 am (UTC)(link)
Hikari smiled. "Don't mention it. Hopefully you'll find some other's from your world here..."

[identity profile] heretic-witch.livejournal.com 2010-10-03 12:33 am (UTC)(link)
"Hopefully. And I hope you do, too." She nodded for emphasis. "Good luck!"

[identity profile] chosenlightchld.livejournal.com 2010-10-03 01:08 am (UTC)(link)
Hikari smiled. "Hey, we can look together if you want..."

[identity profile] heretic-witch.livejournal.com 2010-10-03 01:10 am (UTC)(link)
"That sounds like fun!" It kind of did, actually. "Where should we start? Just by... wandering around?"
