Kind of had an idea. [ Have Peter trying to keep from looking apprehensive. ] Don't know if it'd work, or if anybody'd even find it helpful.

But with everything that's been happening lately? This ship's too big to have people getting lost in it as often as they do. Ending up who knows where for more than just a few days at a time. Dangerous enough as it is on any given day, but with something on the ship leaving threatening messages lying around? Seems like a disaster waiting to happen.

[ he sighs. ] At some hospitals, they paint the floors -- stripes down the middle with hints to where you're going. Guess it'd work on the walls too, doesn't really matter. But it's a trail that's easy to follow. Tells you how to get where you need to go so that people don't end up on the wrong floor in a storage closet wondering how to get back to the information desk. [ Not that that's ever happened to him, no, of course not. But Peter shrugs, like it's the best helpful idea he's got, even if he doesn't know if it'd work. ]

Doubt the captain would want us painting the floors, but if he's not around to stop us, I don't know what the problem would be. Unless the ship likes to move hallways around without anyone noticing.

[Well hey, that actually makes a lot of sense. Steph pulls her mask on to reply.]

That's genius! I completely approve of this idea. Even if the hallways do move or something, we won't know until we try.

Can I help? I mean, do you need help? Not like I expect you to do it all yourself... I mean you could probably do it all yourself, I don't doubt you or anything person-I-just-met, I just-- ...

[Oh my god, Steph, could you be any more of a dork? She averts her gaze and smiles apologetically.] I like to help.

[ Oh hey, another... masked person. You superhero's, Peter's always so fond of you. ]

Hey, if you wanted to help, the last thing i'd say is no. I don't even know if we can find any paint around here, or if there'd be enough of it to cover the whole ship if it works.

[ But the fact that she's excited about it, is definitely encouraging. At least he doesn't feel like an idiot, so there's that. ] Like you said, no way to know unless we try. No way I could do it all by myself.

[ He's giving you that long judgemental look he does like he's about to pick out all the flaws in what you've said and tell you to do it all over again. A sort of condescending that only a big brother can pull off, arms folded, and then he just gives the slightest nod. ]

Good idea, Pete.

[ It's not like he's especially proficient at giving speeches, and all he can do is sort of glower right back at Nathan, just daring him to do it. To say that he should've said something differently, or maybe not at all. And then Nathan's verbal response makes him snort, raising his eyebrows almost expectantly. ]

What was that?

[ Yes, he wants you to say it again. ]
