Meat 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. They are also told they must read information about their current situation and a survival guide with their new omnicom. New crew-mates might see a tall dragonish guy with wings (but don't call him that) and purple 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.]

If Chell was a normal, well-adjusted individual who was not raised by robots and had any kind of social graces at all, she would have cared. As it stood, however, she was not a normal, well-adjusted individual with social graces.
But she did know eye contact when she made it, and though moving from the couch seemed to be too much effort, she did tilt her head, ever so slightly. Questioning.
no subject
Which is exactly what Ash did. He sauntered up to her, letting his eyes flit across the crowd just to reassure himself that she didn't have some crazy boyfriend lurking nearby who'd get his panties in a twist just for saying hi.
"I couldn't help but notice you checking me out." He offered a stump. Er... other hand. "Name's Ash. You got a name, dollface?"
no subject
A great many things often went over her head, especially when they involved subtle (or not-so-subtle) nuances of human interaction. This was one of those times.
So she continued to regard this strange handless-man with an air of curiosity, nodding to indicate that yes, she had a name, but ha ha like he was going to get it. Instead, Chell pointed to her own hand, wondering what had happened to his.
no subject
She was pointing at her hand.
He blinked. Oh! Right!
He went to go shake the hand she was pointing at.
"No, really, you got a name?" Wait wait... maybe she didn't speak English...
no subject
Completely ignoring his second request for names, she shook her head and pulled her hand away, using it instead to point out his really gross-looking stump (no offense).
What was that all about? Mishap with a spinny blade wall?
no subject
"This?" He shied his arm away, sorely missing the prosthetic one he had built for himself. "Long story." One he would happy to regale her with. "Involvin' evil books, demon incantations, and deadites. You ever have your own hand possessed and try to kill you? Not a fun time."
Technically, his mishap did involve a spinny blade called a chain-saw.
"Somethin' dark and evil got into my hand, and it went bad... so I lopped it off at the wrist." He gestured in a karate-chop motion.
no subject
Chell had seen and done a lot of ridiculous things in her lifetime, but there were some things that were just...too ridiculous.
She stood, eyebrow cocked, and made to leave.
QUICK ASH, DON'T LET HER GO.
no subject
"Hey...!" He tried not to look like a kicked dog, because he honestly felt like it. "That's cold, baby. If you're squeamish, you shoulda' just told me so... but that's the truth of the matter."
His eyes darted downward briefly.
"So what about you? What's with the go-go boots?"
no subject
But Chell wasn't heartless. She'd stop, and see what else this guy wanted.
Why was everyone always so fascinated with her shoes? Geez it was like they'd never seen boots before. But if this guy was crazy then maybe he hadn't. So she stopped, folding her arms and sticking out a foot, allowing him to get a good look if he wanted one.
no subject
Then Ash decided because of this, Chell would make the perfect wife.Ash was used to talking aloud (mostly to himself), but it was uncertain if curiosity or impatience was going to win out in this first encounter with Miss Bromden.So... he decided to just outright ask. "You can't talk, can you?"
Ten points for

Maybe she just didn't want to talk to you, Ash. WHAT THEN.
no subject
no subject
But hey, maybe she was being rude. The concept of human politeness was still something Chell knew she lacked, so perhaps she should give this crazy Ash guy the benefit of the doubt.
She stopped again, this time folding her arms and gesturing outward with a hand, indicating that if he had more to say, to go on and say it.
no subject
What are you trying to say.
He was, of course, thinking she was playing a game of hard-to-get, but his patience had thinned at this point. He wanted him to say something?
"You're weird, lady."
It was his turn to about-face and walk off. "When you learn to use your mouth better, come find me."
no subject
Chell watched him skeptically as he turned tail and left, shrugging as if to say she didn't particularly care whether or not they crossed paths again.
She had a feeling it would be sooner than she'd like.
