Pods, Heat, and the Hawk's Eye [Open]
Ankh's first concern was gathering information about this place; the hawk candroid was already flying around where it would and he'd follow it to anything useful later. His next concern then, was returning to the pod caverns. It would be easier to do after all the new crew members had settled, and so he had to wait, no matter how pissed off it made him.
Still, now he got the chance to return. The air was still horrible; he still felt like he was going to choke or explode and he still didn't know why he was so bothered by it, he had spent a year in a human body already, damnit! And that just made him angrier which made him more frustrated which just reminded him how frikkin' hot in here it was. Wearing the damn suit sure didn't help. Nevermind, he'd be sick about it later.
Right now, Ankh was perched on the spiral walkway, staring down at the cavern of pods. He seemed to be staring off into space, but he was actually just concentrating very hard; he had set to work who knows how long ago, using his Hawk vision to scan the pods for any sign of a certain handful of individuals.
They had to be here. There's no way he and that stupid cat'd be around and they wouldn't. They were too dumb to get themselves killed just like that. Not like that.
Yet there was no sign of them. Was his Hawk vision failing him? It never had before. Everything was red, but there was....static. He was used to seeing static, but not with Hawk vision, and not like that. And he certainly shouldn't have had Greeed vision right now.
This was ridiculous. His Greeed arm had long since encased the human arm out of mounting frustration, and he was tightening his fist so hard that he probably would've bruised something by now if it wasn't for the arm. He gave a yell; Nothing. Ankh turned away from the pods and violently whipped his arm forward to point and shoot a blaze of fire at the ground. He didn't care if this place was alive, or if he'd get in trouble, he had been searching for hours and come up dry.
And after his minor fit he was just standing there, breathing heavily, glaring at nothing in particular, and remembering how sick this stupid ship made him.

Her excitement was...amusing? Interesting? Or something, at the least, and Ankh flicked his hand a bit and lowered his arm again. "Yeah it's...useful." Not sure how to reply here.
"...Who are you, anyway?" And are you sure there's no way to be unstuck from her?
no subject
"Name's Lash," she replied, the smile not leaving her lips. "Ex-Black Hole Wunderkind Genius which doesn't mean anything on the ship anyway." She give him a tiny shrug.
"You must be new around here. I would have noticed a guy with a flaming arm waaay before!"
no subject
Wunderkind...? Ankh looked at Lash with scrutiny for a minute, both wondering what the word meant and recalling that the parrot had used it before. Hm....
"Yeah, I'm new. Ankh," He said curtly. He didn't exactly like admitting that he didn't know much about what was going on around here.
no subject
"Ankh? Not bad for a name." She moved from one foot to the other. "Did you visit the rest of the ship yet? I know some just like to look around in the pods, but there's really not much you can do about it." Idly she tapped one of them. "The pods are boring anyway. Especially compared to the sensoriums or the city!"
no subject
The phrasing of her reply got a slight tilt of the head, but before he could ask what she meant by it, the topic had already changed. "I've seen a few places, like the City. Haven't gotten a check everywhere yet."
no subject
"City's nice if you're looking for a place to live. The sensoriums or what I like the most! Imagine getting into this really white room and being able to do anything you desire! I use it to make out plans or test out machines without wasting materials. Granted it's all in the mind for the most part, but it's like having the best lucid dream in your life!"
no subject
"Interesting," He said, looking thoughtful as Lash spoke. "The technology around here is definitely beyond anything I've dealt with before." Might be worth it to look into it a bit more.
"Everyone lives in the City?" He wasn't exactly interested in a living space per se, but it was good to know where everyone else was around.
I HATH RETURNED
She grinned again.
"And yeah, the technology is really out of this world, tee hee hee!"
WELCOME BACK~ <3
...Except nope, he couldn't resist a slight eye roll at the pun. "Right. Does everyone make bad jokes like this?" He's pretty unamused.
no subject
Lash had a tendency to do that.

"I gave you my name after you game me yours. Ankh." He repeated with irritation. Geez, she must've been more absentminded than Chiyoko.
