[ Well, hey TQ, hope you don't mind this fresh face on the network. She normally sticks to texting because if it looks like a phone and acts like a (kind of sci-fi upgraded) phone, why not use it like one? But she's been going through the other features — slow day on the ship, you know how it is — and after rifling through everything she can easily find on the communicator, she decides to post up a video.

So here's a young, teenaged girl setting the comm in front of her before she sits down cross-legged and twirls a lock of her hair. Alas, it's got less of a bounce than it normally does, but that's what lack of hot rollers on a ship will do. ]

If I write my best essay and promise to stay on my best behavior after, am I allowed to leave Space Detention? I mean, I haven't even gotten to mess around in a library, so this kind of blows.

[ she smiles because she's kind of hoping someone will catch the reference. If not, then well: ] Or are we all waiting for some big, space musical number?

Are there even any boomboxes to hold up outside that red smiley thing's window? If it has one. [ seriously, what is up with that thing. ] Also, I guess it'd have to be this phone thing, since I don't have an iPod anymore.

[ She lets out a very put upon sigh before admitting something you never would have guessed!! clearly!! But it's followed by a smile that's all teeth and too much eyelash batting. ]

Okay, so I'm bored. And I can't really miss anyone who left, since I just got here. [ not even touching whatever's up with the masks. ] You'd think the aliens would be able to hook us up with better movie selections or something.

I don't suppose there's someone on here with something entertaining to do?

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

I can add you to the list of candidates. [ she nods with the utmost serious expression. this is totally important business. ]

But I've been told that it's a lot easier to get to the top of the list if you do something nice.

Oh, I like being top, yeah. That's good to know. And I am occasionally known to be nice. Depending. What sort of nice d'you have in mind?

[ i completely read that as being on top, so you know what she will too. here's a grin for you sirius because oh my god she sure is going to say something ]

Are you any good at the top, though? Sometimes you have to earn your way there. And nice — like, the normal kind of nice.

[HAHA then my double entendre was a success!!! and it was a double entendre very much meant, and Sirius grins back at her, pleased that she was clever enough to answer sharply.]

Believe me, miss. I've earned it. But I'm always happy to prove myself--especially by being nice. I can be very, very nice.

[ oh you sly dog 8) ]

Big words only mean bigger expectations, I hope you remember that. If you can't live up to being as nice as you say you are, I'm going to be pretty disappointed.

I've never left anyone disappointed. Very nice, very attentive--that's me. But there's only one way to know for certain, isn't there.

Oh, absolutely. I sure hope you're thinking of the same thing I'm thinking of.

I think I might be. We seem to be rather like-minded on a great many things--but I s'ppose a demonstration would really be in order for this one.

Just to be certain.

Should we arrange for something in person then? You can't trust something until you see it with your own eyes.

Oh, absolutely. We owe it to ourselves. Have to be certain that, y'know, time isn't being wasted or anything-- Shall we start at--say, the bar, perhaps? Just for a meeting place.

If we can figure out a time, sure. I'm a busy girl.

What, too busy for such a demonstration as this? Sad, miss. Very sad. I should hope you make time, you deserve it.

Flattery will get you everywhere. But how about I decide what I deserve to make time for?

[He makes a seated little flourish and something close to a bow.]

I defer to your feminine wisdom, Miss Erica. But you'll forgive me if I petition for you to make the time. I just want to see you happy and--you know--fulfilled and all of it. Only your best interests at heart.

This is all very touching. I'll remember to keep it in mind when I give your invitation a little consideration. I can't forget such a perfect gentleman, after all.
