Meet-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 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.]

Duo had stashed himself in a corner by the doors, waiting for the information to spill out through the eventually mingling of newcomers and old-hats. Listening into other peoples' conversations was generally the best way he'd usually gathered information when it wasn't turning on the charm to chat it straight out of someone, but at the moment, he wasn't really feeling the chatty vibe.

When a voice spoke up nearby and snapped him out of his thoughts to glance up, he managed a friendly little grin in Ophelia's direction. "I don't think anyone could so easily. Your world being destroyed and getting sucked into a living alien spaceship is pretty out there no matter where ya come from."

"It's even worse when you've worked so hard to save it, and just like that it's all gone." Ophelia nodded. "I'm Ophelia. Have you found anyone you know, or are you alone, too?"

That much struck home deeply with Duo, and there was a flash of sadness before it was replaced with a smile again.

"Duo. Nice to meet you. Nah, no one from home yet. Heh, I'm hoping someone'll crawl out from the woodwork, you know?" But in all truthfulness, he wasn't expecting much.

It was always him that survived, and him alone.

"Yeah. I haven't seen anyone I know yet, either." There was a slight twinge of sadness in her voice. "They tell us that if we do what the ship wants us to, we can get them all back. And the worlds we came from, too. It seems to hard to believe, but everything here is hard to believe."

Duo snorted. "If it were that easy, I doubt we'd be here." With a slight frown, he glanced over the crowd of people.

"Shinigami wouldn't reverse things so easily, anyway. Dead is dead."

Ophelia tilted her head at the odd sounding-word. "Who's Shinigami?"

"The God of Death." The wry smile never left his face.
