[ Hello Ax, have a slightly nervous – yet trying like hell to keep her calm – looking Ariadne. She is just going to be looking into the device a moment, as she attempts to figure out what exactly she wants to say – or really how she wants to word her thoughts. (She has a lot of thoughts right now, okay?)

A small smile, slightly forced, but nonetheless a smile appears on her face then, as she takes a deep breath finally speaking. ] Would anyone be willing to create a roster of sort of – a passenger manifest of some kind? [ A pause, brows raised hopeful, as she is going to be looking into the screen, just wanting to give everyone a moment to think this idea over. ] It seems like a good way to figure whose who here.

[ Her nose crinkles slightly then, as she quickly moves on to her next thought. ] And I’ve been working on those maps and I’m wondering if anyone has anything to contribute to them -- namely in the area of that creepy door?

If you have any would you let me know? I’d like to get the maps fully drawn out soon.

[ ariadne can't help but be silent for a moment, her mind seeming to run over that question. does it bother you? yes, yes, it does.

a low sigh escaped her then, before she was cautiously speaking: ] If I told you there are people on this ship, that honestly look like people I know from back home, what would you think?

[ perhaps it's a vague question, one that honestly has ariadne more nervous then she should be. but she is putting a lot on the line with this question, and she knows it. there is a trust though with kasumi - perhaps more then she should - but one that truly is there, and one not often given to the others here. ]

[ In some ways, instinctively, Kasumi can understand the important of the question. When she thinks about what it would be like if certain faces from her past started showing up, only attached to very different people, it makes her chest feel tight. ]

I'd think either someone is trying to get a rise out of you or someone's getting up to some very questionable experiments in reproductive cloning. Or both.

[ It is, perhaps, not a reassuring thing to say, but often Kasumi values honesty more than reassuring. ]

[ a rueful chuckle came out of her then, as that was honestly what she wanted to hear. ]

There are people on this ship honestly like that for me. [ a beat ] Two look like a friend of mine that's been here the whole time, and one.. [ she stopped then, falling silent for a moment as she contemplated just how to say the rest. ] one that looks like someone I'm worried I might have hurt.

[ it was vague still, but she assumed kasumi could only slowly put a few details together there. hopefully ]

[ That's more than vague enough to prevent Kasumi from figuring anything out -- though, it may mean she'll be paying a little closer attention from here on out. ]

That makes it sound a little like whoever's responsible for this knows you. Or knows your friends, at least. Made enemies out of any mad scientists lately?

[ there's a pause on ariadne's end, as she lets out a deep sigh, knowing she might as well get the truth - or at least part of it out there. (she needs all the help she can get after all) ] Not sure you'd call them mad scientists, but maybe, yeah, I very well could have.

Things. Things are complicated in my world, and I wonder if all of this is part of that. It’s sort of why I want the lists going.

[ If this is all something to do with Ariadne's world, Kasumi's not sure how she got dragged into it. But then again, it wouldn't be the first time she ended up right in the middle of something that had nothing to do with her. ]

To check them against people you know back home and see if there are any other faces in common?
