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 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.]

He shook his head. "I don't. And I'm not a ... laguz, either."

Soren lowered his tome -- slightly, since whatever this creature was, it was still a large, likely carnivorous beast.

"...I am Soren, of the Greil Mercenaries. I must have mistaken you for someone else."

It was kind of an apology!

And Nanaki could work with not so but maybe sort of apologies. As long as he wasn't feeling as thought he were in danger anymore. Still, he was a little hesitant - this wasn't the most comfortable of first meetings.

"I am Nanaki, of Cosmo Canyon."

Most meetings with Soren weren't very comfortable. and that's why he had like no friends ever

"Cosmo Canyon. I have never heard of it. I am from the Tellius continent. Am I to understand that you are from a different 'world'?"

And Nanaki had never heard of Tellius, either. His head tilted to the side.

"You mean, another planet?"

"I am... not sure," Soren admitted. "The voice from before, the one that spoke in my mind... it mentioned other worlds. I only know of the one in which I was born."

Then his voice hardened. "And that world was in grave danger before I was brought here. I can only hope enough were left behind to ensure its safety."

"I am only familiar with the planet I was born and raised on, as well."

Nanaki's planet had faced many as danger as well. Even though they had fought so hard to save it, they did so with the knowledge that one day, every planet would meet its demise. Their lives were not different than any other lives. It unsettled him when he heard that the Ohm were 'destroyers of worlds' - did that mean his planet was in danger, too? He didn't want to think of the other possibility that presented itself with that thought.

"Perhaps it would be wise to speak to those who have awakened before us. It may wield better results than asking others who they serve before the fact."

And where Soren came from, almost all of the known population had been turned to stone by a goddess who thought fighting was meanbad.

Was that a dig, Nanaki? Luckily, Soren's willing to let that one go. He's so magnanimous, look at him! ...okay, maybe one small look of disapproval.

"You're right, of course. If you'll excuse me, I think I'll do just that."
