trans_9 | You can look, but you can't touch I don't think I like you much

Freedom, what a silly word.

No matter how free she was nothing changed. The constant creeping paranoia, every shadow a potential threat, every blind corner could be hiding an assassin.

But she wouldn't hide. She wouldn't cower! She had been cleaned up, though her hair still hung about her shoulders in untamed tresses of inky black shine.

This ship had to be explored, she had to know as much about it as she could. Knowledge was power and at the moment she felt particularly weak.

After so much time of being locked away, barely moving, not training. Her body had lost it's edge. Her strength and power had waned and she knew it.

Even if she wasn't aware the voices would never let her forget.

And so barefoot and looking lost in more ways then one the pale young girl slipped through the ship quietly watching, learning.

In time her strength would return.

And then the screams of those that had defied her would fill this ship.

Freedom had done wonders for her mood.

((OOC: So since she's just wandering about wherever you'd like to meet her just mention it in your post and we'll roll from there. ^_^ ))

"I do not mind at all," she said with a polite smile, before floating at a steady pace ahead of, but still close enough beside Azula, leading the way. "It is this way."

Azula followed at a steady pace trying to keep her strides confident despite knowing how out of place she was.

"what exactly are you that you're allowed to do that?" She asked indicating the girl's floating. She never thought to ask before because, well what did it matter? she was locked away.

"I am human, much like many others on this ship," she answered. "It is simply something I can do. Something I was born with. There are some others where I am from, who also possess abilities special to them, as well." Aneasha could heal , Tail and Mail had a useful amount of telekinetic powers, and Iolaous could physically teleport.

"It benefits both myself and those I cannot be around physically, and I am forever grateful for the help they have given me not too long ago, when I traveled through my own universe."

"More powers, if so many different abilities had existed in my own world the war would have gone much differently."

Was that regret or bitter longing in her voice? Hard to say.

"And yet utterly useless against the OHM it seems."

"I am sure that is such a case for many here. But, we can only focus on the here and the now, aiming to shape the future into what we wish of it, even if such things like power and magic do not exist. Because anything is possible, even without it.

"As for the Ohm," she continued, trying to stay optimistic about it. Sure, she'd been awake for a while and others for even longer, with little progress in terms of their relationship with them, but... "In the time since I've woken up, we have learned more about them. I am sure that as long as we keep going, we will come to understand them and have them end their actions."

"I look forward to my first encounter with them personally, if only so I may see these fearsome beasts in action for myself. Whatever they're weaknesses are they can be exploited." Her hunger for battle was largely set in her loss of ability. She wanted to get strong again, and fast.

And nothing like a life or death scenario to get the blood pumping.

"I hope that next time we encounter them, we may have the opportunity to learn more about their reasoning for their actions." She sounded rather hopeful, but sad as she spoke - she certainly understood the feelings of other as a result of what the Ohm had done. And though she was not exactly willing to put them and their actions up on a pedestal, she believed that somehow, someway, they would be able to stop the Ohm without repeating the terrible actions that started this all in the first place.

But Dhianeila would immediately be all smiles after that fleeting moment, when they arrived at Hydroponics. "Here we are!" she exclaimed - and there they were indeed. Hydroponics was a pretty big area, plantlife and trees aside, there were also animals running about.

"Their motivation...yes. I agree." Though for different reasons. It could be the most important piece to the puzzle on how to destroy them.

Azula's eyes widened slightly as she found...possibly the most familiar image. So much green and life. If you looked past the alien animals and fruits it could almost be somewhere in the Earth Kingdom.

"Lovely."

"It is, isn't it?" she smiled, unmoving to instead allow herself to follow Azula around if she decided to explore. "I enjoy coming here often. It reminds me of my own ship, and my own home, sometimes."

Of course, she tended to go there in person, but since she had felt Azula around exploring, this felt is quicker to approach the girl as she was.

"Some of these plants look as if they could thrive in my home." Azula acknowledged as she examined a more tropical looking tree. Sort of like a palm tree but with oddly shaped leaves and different colored bark.

"And others would belong to the Earth Kingdom. Our climates were very defined." She glanced at some other plants slowly making her way through the greenery. Up till now she had expected the ship to all be as creepy as the halls and the area she had seen before her arrest.

"How is the climate where you are from?" she asked, keeping closely behind her, though appreciating the plantlife all the same, even though she'd been here many times before.

"Very hot, though you could have probably guessed that." Azula went on as she began to weave through the green taking in as much detail as she could. This place would be a fine area to plot and plan in seclusion but not so far removed from society that she could be murdered. The only problem was as easy as it would be for her to hide here, so would it be for an assassin.

"Sometimes a wet heat, sometimes a dry heat, but fairly consistently warm."

"That sounds very nice."

She looked up, to the distant 'roof' of the area as she spoke further. "Though it is also nice on this ship, too. Sometimes it is strange to not have varied weathers, but I've grown used to traveling in similar ways. The planets we visit along this journey are amazing to see in such a way, too."

Azula let her imagination wander for a moment to what sort of planets they may visit "What have they been like?" In her mind so many of them were like Earth with just different color schemes or creatures.

She wasn't very far off, in some cases.

"They're very beautiful. Some familiar to myself, personally, but others with their own, unique environments and circles of life. I hope we are soon able to reach another, so you can experience it."
