Got two things to ask and one thing to offer. I'll try to make it short and sweet.
QUESTION 1: What destroyed or depopulated your version of Earth? Nukes, asteroids, zombies? If nothing did yet, what took the closest shot so far?
Same question if you're not from Earth - just swap out Earth for wherever you came from.
I'm not compiling a spreadsheet or anything. I guess it's just something I've wondered.
QUESTION 2: What are we even doing here? What's our destination? The purpose of the voyage? Who sent us, and why us? Maybe I missed something and by all means point me there if I did, but in less than a day, this ship sucks up more resources than the Ark could spare for a month.
I've been here for over a month now and I'm the first person I've seen ask anything like this so far. I want to think it's because we were up to our airholes in highly invasive nanotechnology. Or - like I said, maybe I missed the big 'who, what, where, and why' memo.
OFFER: I'm bored off my rocks, if you haven't picked up on that yet. I was a zero-G mech back on the Ark, and if that's not enough, I helped fix the thing that saved your asses pre-Jump. I can repair, rebuild, or build from scrap just about anything you can think of. So somebody give me a job before I start opening panels and improving whatever the hell's inside.
[ is she serious? she very well could be, so throw her a bone here, yeah? ]

Who are you?

[Surprise, it's the Devil.]

[ because that name, that rings a bell. earth cultures class, which she rolled her eyes through because she was young and those cultures were long dead anyway - but here's a little chunk of it coming back to hit her in the face. ]
Guess you showed them, huh? [ they ~knocked him out of heaven~ and now he's, logistically, light-years above wherever heaven's supposed to be. ]

[Yeah, space isn't really so impressive for him. He witnessed the birth of the universe, so hanging around in a big metal box going between two objects the slow way isn't a pleasure cruise.]
I was sort of in the middle of something back home, you understand.
