[All things considered, Nyreen thinks she is settling in well, as much as things are still strange and she's running out of things to do on her own to keep herself sharp, focused without going crazy for having nothing to focus on. Official expectations here seem to be about zero and those of the other passengers are... varied, to say the least.]

I have three questions. You don't have to be able to answer them all to respond, any sort of conversation will do.

1. How familiar are you all with aliens - that is, sentient organic races from a star system that wasn't your own? There are a lot of humans here, so it makes one curious. We are on a spaceship, after all.

2. Does anyone here spar? If there's any sort of organized club for physical training, I haven't heard of it, but I'd be interested if anyone wants someone to practice hand-to-hand combat with.

3. How exactly does one go about joining the Security team here? I'm interested in helping out, willing to go through an application process if necessary.

[the only thing that appears on anyone's screen is the text. this is serious business, and nill thinks that if people see her, they won't take her seriously. it's the big blue eyes and angel wings, man. but she's thought about this for a while, and knows that heine is better with guns than other weapons. but after what happened in the genetics lab... well, maybe she won't always have a gun on her, and she isn't that great of a shot anyway. so this is something she wants, which is a lot coming from nill.]

I want someone to teach me to use a knife.

 [The video flicks on to reveal a particularly banged up Commander Shepard still sitting in Medical, her scars cracking and glowing orange-red just a little more than they had been previously.  She's got the communicator propped up so she doesn't have to move around too much. Getting it that way had required her to be entirely too patient and she was running thin on that.  Being in a bed was by far the one thing she didn't want to do.  While she's feeling better, it's clear that getting up is probably not something that's going to be happening for awhile yet.  When she speaks, her voice is weary but there's steely determination in there.]

My name is Commander Sarka Shepard of the SSV Normandy SR-2 requesting a sitrep -- any information on our current whereabouts or mission parameters would be particularly helpful.  Obviously, this-- [Shepard waves, indicating the ship itself.]  --is not at all something I remotely recognize as being any sort of ship or facility design I am familiar with in the least.  So, useful details would be appreciated.    

[The muscles in her jaw tighten and twitch as she turns away, gingerly reaching for a glass of water.  There's a brief flare of her biotics and she pauses to refocus.  Nothing was working properly and it didn't help that she was irritated.  Getting a hold of the glass, she drains it, and leans painfully to put it back down.]

I'll be Medical, probably for a few more hours, and then I think I'll drag my sorry ass to my quarters.

[She makes a face.]

I could think of better ways to wake up.
