The Peacemakers - Alternity, Star*Drive Campaign

[Hammerhead]

I understand she is some kind of famous vocal entertainer. She seems a little naieve, but she means well. Dra'Ken shrugs, wondering if he had appeared so harsh and uncaring to the VIP. She, at the least, does not have eyes on my position. The Solar probably does.

Van, Biocap

Caine turns and speaks to Van, "Well Captain, how does it feel to be on your first mission in drivespace? We're off to a good start, wouldn't you say? I must say, it does invigorate me to feel this close to the divine unconscious. I imagine the next few days will prove very enlightening. For us all."

Van's face flushes. He'd completely forgotten about Caine's religious background.

"I ... imagine so. I should apologize for utterly forge--er, I meant to ask you if there were any rituals we should go through before you entered the ... divine unconscious, but with all the excitement of the celebrity and all...

"Um, so, should we pray?"

"So why do we have a singer on board?"

 

[Angel Tarragon]

[sblock=Ozmar]Lirianai enter her quarters. "Cece, can you please tell me about the other on board. It seems like my presence on the ship is met with some resistance. I would like to know why I am being given the 'cold shoulder' by those that do not appreciate my talents."[/sblock]

 

[Prof Yeti]

Gabriel Dane [Da'Shan Mind Knight]

Looking up with a bit of a surprised look upon his face, Gabriel slowly rises from his chair. "Actually Ebon, I am afraid I must depart. I have been so intent on getting to know the ship, I forgot the Captain wished to meet with me. But I would appreciate some of your time later to speak. And of course if you have need of me you need but ask." And with that Gabriel leaves the room and makes his way toward the Bridge.

 

[Ozmar]

Looking up at Ebon while turning off his data slate, Gabriel smiles at the Aleerians entrance. "Greetings to you as well Ebon. Please come in, it won't disturb me a bit." With that he motions to one of the other stations about the room. "Or do you need this specific station? I would be more than happy to move."

"No. This will be fine." She sits and places her hand on the console, and tiny filaments snake out of her fingers into the dataport. As they do, her eyes fade and assume a distant, unseeing appearance.

 

[Ozmar]

Dra'Ken studied Friday, wondering what kind of game she was playing. Was she testing my knowledge of the language? Does she regret speaking in that language, and now feigns ignorance? Dra'Ken shrugged again. I said hello, then asked where you learned that language. You appear to be quite well-travelled.

Friday stammers slightly, in a strange, human manner, "Oh, t-thanks. I guess you pick things up here and there. I've been around the 'verse a few times. You know." She shrugs, perhaps a human gesture? Or is she trying to mimic seshayan mannerisms again?

 

[Ozmar]

Laera opens her mouth, as if about to say something, then closes it. Hmm. "Actually I just wanted to partake in a litlle conversation, would that be all right?" Laera then arches her back a little and feels the constraint of the clothes she is wearing. She then undoes the top button on her shirt. "It is certainly a beautiful ship. It reminds me of the first ship I was on."

Friday brightens: "Isn't she? I've only been on her a few days, but I already feel at home. Trust me, Miss Lopez, this ship is solid. She'll take her anywhere in the 'verse and feel right at home all the way. Have you seen your quarters yet? I callibrated the holo-projectors, so if you ever find anything wrong with them, you just let me know and I'll fix them right up!"

 

[Ozmar]

"Ok," Lucas shrugs. Once she's gone, Lucas turns to Friday. "Guess she's someone important. Must have been her cargo Duke was loading in." He speaks offhandedly, as if discussing a blank wall.

Friday kicks Lucas in the shin. "Good job Tyler! You scared her off. You got something against people with wings?"

"Um, so, should we pray?"

Caine laughs. It is a very friendly and inclusive sound. "Not at all, captain. We orlamists do not stand on ceremony. Nor do we expect others to share our faith. The Orlamu tradition is both faith and science. We seek to understand the nature of drivespace through scientific inquiry, and we remember the reverence and awe that has inspired us to seek out its secrets."

"Admittedly, there are some radicals who feel that travel in drivespace intrudes where men were not meant to go, but that is hardly a mainstream opinion. I believe St Sendir spoke truly when he said that drivespace is a gift to all mankind, one that unlocks the playroom of our youth, granting us access to the stars."
