( VIDEO. )

[ the device is resting on a table, a distance from anderson and jax — far enough that both of them are in the picture. anderson’s posture is, as usual, straight; a soldier at ease. jax is slouching, flicking his lighter open and closed. he has a cigarette behind his ear but he doesn’t reach for it. he clears his throat, expectant, nudges her with his elbow. ]

Gonna talk to the good people, Pollyanna?

[ if the video wasn’t already on, anderson would comment on the use of the nickname in what is, essentially, a public service announcement. as it is, she just raises an eyebrow at him before turning back towards the device. ] We realise that the last jump was unpleasant for many of us. Sickness aside, however, our position is no less vulnerable now than it was before.

We asked before, but for those of you who are new, or those who missed it last time: Gunnery is responsible for the defense of the ship — which, regardless of how you may feel about it, is your current place of residence — against attacks, as well as for the maintenance of the armory. We offer weapons training, and I offer self-defense lessons as well.

You get your sea legs under you, you come down, talk to either of us. Can usually find one or the other kicking around Gunnery at any hour, and we don’t mind visitiors if you aren’t acting like an idiot.

[ after a moment to let that sink in, anderson reaches out and turns the device off. ]


[ red is jax, black is anderson.

I served under her for a time. We were and remain allies.

It is possible I would be able to provide some help on that front. My training was very extensive.

Should see if you can recruit her.

[ even jax's tone reflects that he's aware there's not a snowball's chance in hell ]

You'd be doing better than us so far. We don't got much in the way of people with tech know-how.
battlesleep: (so serious)

Unlikely in the extreme.

Then I will do my best. Hopefully I can provide something.

Yeah, that's the sense I get. But hey, gotta have a hobby, right?

Your best is what we're after.
battlesleep: (friendly)

I look forward to working with you, then.

Likewise, man.

I will see you shortly.
