Shards of Memory--Act I: The Boundless Void

[SBLOCK=Zaeryn]"Yes..." Valyssa replies quickly before being swept away into the kiss along with Zaeryn.[/SBLOCK]

 

[unleashed]

Zaeryn T'Erilan, Male Altanian Arcanist

[SBLOCK=Rystil]“Mmm, a nice finish to breakfast indeed,” Zaeryn remarks grinning, as he slowly withdraws from their kiss.[/SBLOCK]

Yotsu Yuriko, Female Larakese Martial Artist

[sblock=Festy & RA only, Larakese]*Yuriko listened intently to Deidrik's words, almost to the exclusion of all else. When he was finished, Yuriko nodded, bowing her head, but keeping her eyes still on him.*

"I apologize for my questions, Deidrik-san," Yuriko explained, not answering his question. "It was deeply presumptuous of me to think that you would be able to trust me. I will allow you the time you need to understand me better. If you cannot or will not answer a private question of mine, I would greatly prefer, Diedrik-san that you just tell me so, rather than tell me something . . . else."

Raising her head, she offered, "Getting good knowledge of the others would definitely be useful for the defense of the ship . . . but perhaps they will be tentative in speaking honestly with us until they are more comfortable with us as well?"[/sblock]

[SBLOCK=Diedrik and Yuriko](OOC: I believe you were talking to Talia and she said that she will look into the paperwork shortly? So it was waiting on a new post from you guys. This is assuming you didn't squeeze a post in between when I checked last and the crash)[/SBLOCK]

[SBLOCK=Kirkesh](OOC: I believe you has just said it was bad when women nod together like that, so it was my turn to post)

¨Well, when it is something with which everyone can agree, it isn't all that strange, I guess--Almost done, Sis? Be sure to use the sweet-and-sour sauce--it's delicious!"

"I don't really think that would make sense in this dish. Maybe next time, if I don't prove too incompetent to manage it. Or you could just ask the actual cook to make it for you, I guess. He knows how to do a few Larakese dishes and I just got this recipe from him."

"Yeah, but I like your food better, Sis, and we may not get another chance like this for a long time, what with duties and all that."

[sblock=RA]"Oh, are things going to be picking up soon? Seemed like it was kind of slow on the ship today."

Kirkesh rubs Vanessa's back tenderly as he speaks.[/sblock]

"Very well then, Captain. We'll leave you to your work," Diedrik said.

After a quick salute he was back in the hallway.

"I guess we'll be killing some time drawing up the roster, and I guess the first step in that would be to go around and inquire as to who possesses any martial training," Diedrik suggests, "Although if you have a better idea I'm all for it."[/sblock]

"I guess we'll be killing some time drawing up the roster, and I guess the first step in that would be to go around and inquire as to who possesses any martial training," Diedrik suggests, "Although if you have a better idea I'm all for it."

"I would have to agree, Diedrik-san," Yuriko replied as they walked. "Duty rosters, watch schedules, and determining everyone's capabilities in case of a conflict would be useful. Other than that . . . all I can think of is training, alertness, and observation . . . that, and praying to the fortunes that none of this effort will be necessary." Yuriko finished with a sardonic smile.[/sblock]

[SBLOCK=Kirkesh]"What, are you expecting to be attacked by space pirates or something within a day's travel from Kanath herself?" Allure chuckles softly, "I am sure we will find plenty of excitement eventually, but at least not for this first stretch."[/SBLOCK]

[sblock=RA]"I sure hope not. But it seems like the crew's got plenty a time to do what it wants, even the normal work's light. And of course, no one seems ta know much 'bout what we're after."[/sblock]
