I hear you lot rather enjoyed yourselves down there. You're practically celebrities among the rest of us: outpost travelers, survivors, whatever you'd like to call it, I'll not limit your labeled imagination on however you'd like to spin it. I'd be rather interested in hearing about what it is those who stayed in their cozy cabins missed, however - make use of that teahouse or other freshly stocked supplies we've the habit of squandering for sake of entertainment or distraction from personal misery on this boat. Supposing the rest of it isn't all freezedried, in any case.

Considering we've no windows, if anyone managed to take pictures or put together some creative art for your journey, I'm sure the rest of us are aching for some sort of blatant confirmation of where we might happen to be. Or do none of you know how to exactly place the progress of this fine vessel? I'll be frank, the whole sending untrained passengers into space bit is a little out of my league.

Actually, I've yet to be told upfront how those pods operate. Or where people go when they happen to disappear - unless someone keeps feeding them to the manticores. Or, honestly, any sort of satisfactory answer to most of the questions I still have even after a few months of this place.

I can't be the only one unwilling to settle with an empty hand, can I?

"Creative art" interpretations, is it? Oh, this is going to go well.

I'll even paste the stick figure creations on the walls of this place; no interpretation is a wrong interpretation, just varying degrees of terrible.

The shuttles have windows. Perhaps you could ask for a trip around the ship.

You don't want to know what happened.

You may think you do--

That teenagers have fragile hearts.

Have you heard from Arthur today? He's stiffing me. Potentially he's still annoyed with me over the fishing comments, but I was hoping whatever happened down there would snap him out of it.

[ He's already said his piece about his journey down to Strela, so he's not going to touch on that. ]

Pods - are you talking about the gravpouches or the shuttles?

thats too easy of a theory without much substance to make it satisfactory.

[heartbreaking]

If that empty hand of yours ends up burnt you may very well end up looking back on your ignorance with nothing but fondness.

[ text ] LMAO I like it

anyone who prides ignorance has a few more things to be concerned over than a messed hand.

I'm horrible at drawing, but I can tell you about what happened down there, what I saw at least, if you really want to know. [ she sounds a bit skeptical, but then. maybe she shouldn't. ] And it's funny you should mention tea, seeing as I grabbed a few boxes while I was there. [ there are two Charleseses here now, of course she did. ] Wanna talk?

Everyone seems so overconcerned about what I do or don't want. [ It's starting to get, frankly, irritating - but it doesn't show up in his tone, more teasing than anything else. ]

I'd love to.

Celebrities.

[Don't mind him sounding dismissive and skeptical as all hell, it's par for the course.]

What'd you do, then. Here.

[He's just as curious as to what conspired on the Tranqiulity as to what did there, particularly when it's a voice he recognizes.]

Explored what I could of the ship. No develpment of mechanical nurses on my end, however.

Not being an astronaut, for starters.

But you'd charge me for something I can otherwise get for free, little Crow. I'm a man of practicality.
