[ And in this corner, representing for the various Westerosi - because between pyromania and keysmashes, someone has to - is someone who's discovered that the keyboard function isn't meant to be pounded relentlessly. Nah, they're letters. Letters like in words. ]

[ Wow, guys, imagine that. Let's practice type some words. ]

[ But she must have hit the wrong key because the textual screen is suddenly replaced with a live feed of a young woman who is dubiously hunched over her communication device and practicing the cordi-board keys. It's not that hard, see? And video isn't that bad a thing, either, though it's accidental and the surprise is evident on her face. But this works; she'd had a question burning in the back of her mind since she woke up and started toying with this...thing. ]

A ship, is it? [ Whoops! Asha, your blatant and tasteless skepticism is showing through. That's not very ladylike. Cover that shit like it were your ankles! ]

And just who captains it?

[ Or...don't. That's okay, too. ]

Comments

[wolfinthesnow]

Yes, a ship.

[krakeness]

[ Not exactly the question she'd hoped to have answered; that one was a bit more rhetorical. ]

And? [ A ship and -? ] We've already established it's a ship.

[wolfinthesnow]

And the captain hardly speaks to us.

[krakeness]

How much is hardly?

[wolfinthesnow]

I've been here for three jumps, and he's spoken only once.

[krakeness]

Not a very good captain, then.

[ He. It's a start. ]

[wolfinthesnow]

The ship flies on.

[krakeness]

It "jumps".

[wolfinthesnow]

I'm told it flies.

[krakeness]

You've said it flies, and you've said jumps. We've only reached the agreement that it doesn't sail.

[wolfinthesnow]

And so you've an answer there.

[krakeness]

A lacking answer.

[wolfinthesnow]

It's a ship that jumps and flies. And occasionally it stops and shuttles go out to land.

[krakeness]

Name?

[wolfinthesnow]

Jon Snow.

[krakeness]

The ships.

[ But hold up - ]

Snow?

[wolfinthesnow]

The Tranquility.

Yes.

[krakeness]

[ That's a stupidly non-intimidating name for a ship. ]

[ But forget that. Let's gander some guesses here. ]

And you're from Westeros.

[wolfinthesnow]

[Jon suddenly is a bit on edge. If she knows where he's from then there's a good chance she knows a great deal more]

Yes. And you are, lady?

[krakeness]

[ She knows enough, certainly. Enough to knowingly smirk to herself and venture another "guess". ]

Not much of a lady. Not from the north, either. [ Like you. ]

[wolfinthesnow]

[All Snows are.]

You don't sound it.

[krakeness]

You do. Am I wrong?

[wolfinthesnow]

Snow is a Northern name.

[That's a yes.]

[krakeness]

A bastard name.

[wolfinthesnow]

Any child knows that.
