[watashinonamaewa]

[ Good evening, Tranquility. Your lovely white haired scientist popping up on your screens! Well. Not yet 'scientist' but... At least she's looking well. Adjusting to being on a space ship was some tough stuff... ]

I am looking to contact Data or Xavier about a position in the science department. If they do not see this message, does anyone know how I can find them?

[ You can see the she's sitting on the ground and leaning forward slightly to keep her head within the frame. If you've seen her before, you'd know that the grey hooded sweatshirt she's sporting isn't her normal get-up. She snagged it from Scout after a certain encounter a night or so back - realizing that it was much more comfortable to lounge in instead of her leather-material. ]

I'm also hoping to learn more about this device. Does anyone have any advanced skills with it? Better yet, can anyone modify my cables so I may link up with it directly?

[ She has the cords beside her, lifting them to show the feed. All three look like regular cords, but both ends of all three cords are only a match to the plugs located at her temples and sides of her head. You'd have to be there to examine them more properly. ] 

I cannot risk damaging them, they are the only ones I have. 

[ Standing from the feed, everyone can see that the jacket isn't quite long enough to cover her underwear entirely - so everyone just got a two second show of her long legs and tiny black panties. The video ends. ]

Sorry I didn’t tell you that I took your jacket.

i thought i lost it

2/2

[dashhole]

[Wait a minute. That means...]

oh crap u looked under the bed, didn't u?

[watashinonamaewa]

Yes. I took nothing else. Too much to go through.

Sorry again. Do you want me to bring it back?

haha so embarrassed

[dashhole]

no its cool

its fine

you just weren't supposed to see that pile

[watashinonamaewa]

I didn't see anything specific. It was dark.

Are you upset?

voice;

[leaps]

I can take a look at that wiring. If I can't figure something out, I'd bet Scotty could.

Voice |

[watashinonamaewa]

I would really appreciate it. Should I meet you? Or would you rather come here?

Voice |

[leaps]

I can come to where you are. Got the location?

Voice |

[watashinonamaewa]

I'm in my room. Nine, Fifty-Eight.

Voice |

[leaps]

On my way then.

[the_vishual]

Synching up with the system--it isn't a good idea, miss.

[watashinonamaewa]

Will connecting with the mainframe activate a counter-program?

Video |

[the_vishual]

I'm not sure you want to attach yourself to the network. There's a chance you'll just see the network smiling or your mind will be... [ She trails off. ]

Ask Spock about mindmelding with the ship.

[watashinonamaewa]

Smiling? That's a strange description for something like that.

I will find this Spock then. Has he connected with the ship before?

Video |

[the_vishual]

It's laughing. It's laughing at us running like rats through a maze.

He has.

Er, not to tell you what you ought to be wearing, as it's entirely your right to wear what you like --

[Anders thinks briefly of Isabela --]

but someone ought to tell you, if they haven't already, that you're giving a bit of a show. If that's what you intended, of course, carry on.

Video |

[watashinonamaewa]

[ Her feed clicks on and she hasn't changed. ]

A show? [ Isn't... that the purpose of video? To show others? She doesn't get it. Maybe she did it wrong. ]

Should I have communicated with audio instead?

permavideo

[birdhousesoul]

If you don't want to show off your smallclothes, and you're dead set against wearing pants, then yes, audio might serve you well.

[Not scolding, honestly. Anders sees a lot of pervitude in Darktown, and he worries. Cibo didn't give him the impression she intended to show off her assets.]

Video |

[watashinonamaewa]

Oh. [ She gets it now. It just didn't seem to matter to her at the time. Appearances were one of the several things that were not a high priority to her.

She would certainly change if she left her room, but never thought it would matter over a video feed. ]

I'm sorry if I offended you.

[video]

[circumitus]

Link directly? You mean like a MSB -- or, a Bridge?

[That's what she remembers it to be, in any case. Some kind of device that someone from her world used to hook his brain up to a terminal. Of course, the results hadn't been that... great.]

You probably shouldn't. Not here.

Voice |

[watashinonamaewa]

These terms are unfamiliar to me.

Another has advised against it, too. Why is that?

[audio]

[testgasm]

[Blah blah yeah okay put some pants on geez lady.]

What, like interface with the communicator? Good luck with that. Robot, or something, are you?

Audio | Ahjflkanu hi wheats

[watashinonamaewa]

[ Would if she could. Don't suppose you have any spares. ]

I am seeking to access its data but, no, I am not a robot. This body is that of a genetically altered and technologically augmented clone.

[perma-voice] hellooOoOoOOoo

[testgasm]

[This is a guy who owns exactly one pair of pants

He stole them.]

Genetically altered and--okay, so, not a robot. Hate to break it to you, but this ship sort of has a problem with the, ah. Data-accessing-inclined. I'm sure you've heard.

Voice |

[watashinonamaewa]

Problem? If you mean the inaccessibility, then yes. I have been having quite some trouble finding an access point that is compatible with my current cables.

Is there anything else that I should know?
