[ York's just a little less relaxed and personable than he normally is when the feed clicks on, though he's leaning back in his chair like he usually does, letting it tilt as he holds the device up in front of him. The shuttle hijacking attempt was his first taste of things being as off as everyone had been claiming, but now with the recent deaths he's taking this even more seriously. He starts speaking as though in the middle of a conversation already with his viewers. ]

So I know there's lots of opportunity for R & R on this ship, but I gotta tell you up front I've been thinking about this for a while now, okay. And in light of recent events I think it might be a better idea than I even realized.

Now, I'm just sending out feelers here, but I'm skilled in hand-to-hand fighting and I'm sure there're others of you here, like me, who'd like to practice that more. Maybe even see if there's something we can learn from one another. So if you're interested in doing some sparring, let me know, and if I get enough response maybe we'll make a thing out of it.

Just so you guys know, anybody on the team who's interested has first dibs on lessons, if you want 'em.

You want to see if we can get a bottle of something and stay in tonight?

[ He pulls the glass toward him after she's got it refilled and picks it up to sip slowly. He's stunned into silence, for now. ]

[ghostthatlingers]

I thought you should know. In case Wyoming decides to show up here.

[ That asshole was the reason York had died and her fist tightened around her glass. That fight should have gone differently. ]

[logicunlocked]

[ That's an interesting thought, really, but he's immediately dismissive. ]

I'm not worried about him.

[ghostthatlingers]

You should at least be wary of him if he shows up.

[logicunlocked]

Oh, yeah, hell. I mean, he's Wyoming. We're never going to be best buddies.

[ghostthatlingers]

You have ever more reason to not be, trust me.

[logicunlocked]

Hey, well, listen. Now I know about it. Maybe I can change things when I go back.

[ghostthatlingers]

[She frowned. That was a thought, only it wouldn't do much good.] Except it's already happened for me.

[logicunlocked]

Well...yeah. But it makes a difference for me. And we can hang out as long as we're both here, right?

[ghostthatlingers]

[She sighed.] Now you sound like Church.

[logicunlocked]

Why, did he say the same thing?

[ghostthatlingers]

Yeah. Apparently he and I were about to get EMPed when he got pulled here.

[logicunlocked]

Don't you agree with him, then?

[ghostthatlingers]

[She stared at her glass a moment then reached to get another drink.] I don't know if I want to spend my last days on some unknown ship.

[logicunlocked]

When the alternative is that you're already gone?

[ghostthatlingers]

According to him.

[logicunlocked]

What, you don't believe him?

[ghostthatlingers]

I don't know. Last thing I remember is that I was in a pelican and it was about to crash.

[logicunlocked]

Maybe we're...all from different timelines? Do you believe in timelines? Like in those sci-fi movies?

[ghostthatlingers]

[She snorted.] If I hadn't come here, I'd say no.

[logicunlocked]

Yeah, me too.

[ He shook his head, and turned his attention back to nursing his drink. ]

[ghostthatlingers]

Do you want to stay here?

[logicunlocked]

I'm okay with it. Better than being on the run and looking over my shoulder all the time.

[ghostthatlingers]

[She nodded.] I'm not sure what I want to do yet. I've joined up with their security team in the meantime.

[logicunlocked]

[ He grinned. ]

Oh yeah? You're not sick of keeping other people in line?
