[Open to all]

[commembratus]

 

 

[There's some muffled speaking, the view is a sort of blurry darkness – not really much of anything can be seen aside from fuzzy sort of darkness or heard for that matter, what one might expect for an entirely accidental effort to contact the network. There’s another voice.] Now it is recording, see? [and then silence.]

[The world spins briefly and the view of a wall slowly focuses, as if someone is carelessly holding the phone away from themselves, a male voice can be heard, near.] That is exactly as Merlin has done before. [So the once King insists as if it might not be heard by others, as if the fault here does not rest with him.]

[The view upon the screen now eases into focus, Arthur is clearly being guided now in adjusting the device. You can hear a softer voice off camera, one that’s full of patience, that would be Gwen.] Like this, Arthur. [ The camera is now sturdy and facing the correct way, you can see Arthur’s face in full view, no longer just an upside down view of his nose.] Thank you Guinevere. [His adoration is quite plain, both in voice and in the look upon his face. His gaze soon turns once more to the camera.]

For those I have not met, I am Arthur Pendragon. [Largely the entire vessel is unknown to him, Arthur's preferred to keep close to those he knows best, for the most part his purpose here is to protect them.] My inquiry concerns work aboard the Tranquillity, if I may find it. I'd look to ensure the security of the ship, join the patrol. [Arthur's gaze lowers a moment, as if he's concerned his confession might sound foolish, and it is with brief reluctance he goes on, voice stern.] I'm growing concerned of the safety of the halls here. It is clear more than just shadows watch us.

You want Tyke— can't miss her, she's the little surly one.

[ and neal's gonna be the dead one if she ever

EVER

sees this. ]

Little.

...you are on the petite side.

[ oh my god he's so dead ]

[puppydogeyes]

No I'm not.

[Lean, more muscle than anything else, but tall. Definitely tall.]

[became]

[ tyke don't interrupt his snit with logic ]

So, should I look around corners from now on?

[puppydogeyes]

Figured you'd be doing that already.

[Though what he'd be looking for was another matter.]

[commembratus]

[He sounds curious, but thankful.]

Little ..surly one. I don't think I've ever heard of a lady described his way. But I shall.

[Or ..of a woman being the one to contact when it comes to security, either.]

[became]

She's... an original, all right.

[ she's maybe going to kick neal's ass one day

he'll deserve every moment. ]

voice »

[commembratus]

Original. Something to keep in mind, I imagine. [He sounds like he's not really sure if that is something that ought to worry him.]

You work with the security department, I take it?

voice »

[became]

Oh, god no. No, she wouldn't have me.

[ plus crackshot, utterly useless in a fight otherwise isn't exactly a glowing personal recommendation. ]

No, I like to think of myself as self-employed.

Ahh, any friend of Gwen's is a friend of mine.

Fili, at your service.

[chambermaid]

Thank you for your kindness, Fili. [ she appreciates you, bro.]

[longestnose]

Least I could do, lass.

[commembratus]

And to you Fili, Guinevere has spoken highly of you.

[All good things, of course. Well Arthur is certain he's heard the name at the very least, he may embellish a little.]

Have you been aboard this ship for some time too?

video;

[longestnose]

Well that is a good thing to hear, lad.

[He gives a nod.]

Nearly a year, by my calculation. Though unlike some, I can't deny that for all the terrible things that happen here, I am happy for it.

[puppydogeyes]

You were here before. And on the team.

[A beat, a slight tilt of her head. She has to follow the rules she keeps for everyone.]

I'll still need to run you through an assessment.

Video;

[commembratus]

[Arthur looks vaguely confused, a glance briefly sent off camera, though he soon straightens and gives a small nod, perhaps he shall ask more of it later.]

I understand. [He's gracious enough about it too, mostly because he'd much rather prove himself.] I would prefer so anyway. I'd like to arrange an assessment when you best find convenient.

[puppydogeyes]

Tomorrow morning. First floor gym. After that I can give you the run down on how the team works, put you on a patrol.

Video;

[commembratus]

[There is a flicker of excitement at both a chance to prove himself, and something more to do.] I'll see you then, I appreciate the opportunity.

Video;

[puppydogeyes]

[She's tempted to tell him not to get too excited, or that there was always the opportunity when they were a volunteer team that needed as many bodies as it could get. But that wasn't exactly good recruitment talk, so she just nods.]

Don't worry about it.

[Wow they are too precious. Especially Arthur. Clearly he is very new to the Tranquility, despite being a somewhat familiar face that Jack has seen around.]

Gotta love technology, yeah? [Jack, don't be cheeky.]

video;

[chambermaid]

It took me quite a while to figure it out myself.

video;

[51stcentury]

It can be difficult, if you're not used to that sort of thing. He's lucky to have someone as patient as you helping him out. [wink]

video;

[chambermaid]

[ blush time!] Oh, um, thank you very much for saying so. I only want him to learn it, considering we have no idea how long we will be here. And perhaps it will help him settle in more easily.

video;

[51stcentury]

It could be a long time, yeah. [It's been a pretty long time for himself, all things considered. Not that he's complaining.]

How long have you been here yourself then, that you've become such an expert in technology? [smile smile smile]
