Troperia, Bridge

Mireille nodded upon hearing the creature, turning to the Troperia "Well, it only screeched as far as I can tell." She turned to the creature again "So, then you coem from the outside?" She thought for a bit, there were some species that could survive in space, maybe this creature belonged to one of such "Did you come on board via a ship? If so please tap one time." She paused, thinking "Or two times if you came without."

"One may feel fear in the face of danger so long as one banishes fear when danger actually arrives"

Troperia

Bridge

The insectoid tilts its body slightly for a few seconds before raising its second-left leg again and tapping the floor twice. The creature not responding to the AI's comment at all, possibly choosing not to, possibly not understanding such.

"After time adrift among open stars, along tides of light and through shoals of dust, I will return to where I began."

Troperia, Bridge

"Huh, so you can survive in space, interesting." She thought for a bit "Do you knwo from where you come? If so could you maybe point one of your legs in the direction?" She didn't really know if the creature could answer that, but if so she at least had a rough direction to look into some starmaps for possible origins.

"One may feel fear in the face of danger so long as one banishes fear when danger actually arrives"

Mitch becomes noticeably tense at the word 'psychic'. "No, I haven't slept in a while." He answers Torvahk, then turns to Kyerine. "Uh... someone who can read minds, basically."

"What's this about a weapon?" He asks, watching the insectoid from the corner of his eye.

Crew Deck - Storage Room

Peter cringes slightly at Russell's comment, though he makes his best effort not to show it. "i think it's best to let a professional handle it, babe." He says to Chris, giggling lightly.

"Well, let's go, then." Peter walks out of the storage room with the others.

Alexander Dock

Peter walks out the airlock of the ship, into the actual station. "Well, here we are, I guess. Uh, let's see..." He accesses his earpiece, reading through the map Val gave him on the holographic screen in front of his eyes. "We'll need to take a shuttle from here." He says to the others.

Troperia Bridge:

"Defeat mine...unfair it was. Around thrown with effort none was there. Choking I was in sphere dark, attacks energy dark they used...Describe, difficult it is." Torvahk tried to explain as he waited for the group to finish voting on the map, having selected one at random.

Living The Fever Dream

Mr. Panuchi's

Ricardo shakes his head.

"Sorry, I know about PRISM but I don't know anything in specific. Brindle dealt with them, and he either didn't tell us any of the specifics or didn't receive any himself," he says, as the girl comes back with the requested drinks.

"What kind of pizza...or pizzas...do you guys want?"

"Doesn't matter to me, hun," he replies, before turning his attention to Lex once more, "And yeah, a lot of people that actually live on our station, at least, are just here to live, not work as researchers."

As he sits, the girl also asks Val what he'd like to drink, if anything.

Alexander - Science

Dom should have no trouble getting the information, but it's mostly charts and raw data that, without context, probably doesn't mean much to him. Something about genomes.

Alexander - Restricted Access

The drone unfortunately, sees nothing of the sort. However, the computer is still online, and Michiyuki's avatar sits on the screen

Well, you're most definitely not supposed to...oh, you disappeared. If I hadn't just been updated while they were in here, I might have set off an alarm. Instead...if you're still here...

There is a click and a beep-boop kind of sound, and the door slides open again.

Alexander - Restricted Access

The drone uncloaks just slightly, enough for the refracted light around it to be noticed by Michiyuki. It nods to her, before recloaking and flying inside the office, taking care to be more stealthy this time and hugging the ceiling.

Alexander - Mr. Panuchi's

Izzie and Val exchange a look, as if communicating telepathically. "We'd like a pizza with bell peppers, mushrooms, pepperoni and ground beef. And jalapeno peppers too, if you have that." Izzie orders.

"So you can say that this space station is almost like a city, then? Makes sense, judging from its size." Val says to Ricardo.

Alexander - Science

Dominic moves on along the hallways, trying to find anything else of interest.

Crew Deck - Storage Room>Dock

"Aww...you're no fun~..." Chris fake-whines while leaning against Peter.

As he follows them out, Chris looks about.

Mr. Panuchi's

Lex nods while sipping her tea, not entirely sure what the concoction Izzie just ordered would be like, "Yeah, that sounds good to me."

"I'm as free as the dust in the solar wind."

I think I might have caused some confusion with something I mentioned. I will rectify it in this post though, so no harm done ^_^

Alexander - Restricted Access

The drone is just able to keep up with David, Dr. Brindle, and the child. As they pass through the door the child looks up at where the drone is, as if he knows it's there, but says nothing. He does scowl a bit though, as the two older men enter before him. The door is still open, and for a good few moments the older of the two men seems to just be getting things in order as he sits on one side of a massive mahogany desk, with David on the other side.

Mr. Panuchi's

"Actually that does sound pretty good. Spicy..." Kijo chuckles, "He hates things too spicy."

Ricardo takes a moment at this, just eyeing Kijo for a moment, before smirking and giving a short laugh, "Guess that's settled then." The waitress, meanwhile, nods and goes off to give the order. This place, it seems, has an old fashioned feel to it, considering how a lot of places must have done away with conventional person-to-person order taking.

"Several, actually. This isn't even one of the main "cities" either, though we really don't give them all that much distinction. Just the fact that they're separated. Alexander itself turns on an adjustable axis to maintain a 12/12 day night cycle. It's not perfect, but it works."

If Lex is still there, Jiko clasps her mental hand for a moment, as well as what can be called a mental eyeroll at what technically just came out of his mouth.

Alexander - Science

As Dominic wanders he is stopped by a young man with a holographic interface floating in front of him. From what he might be able to see, it seems like the device is scanning him.

"Hmm...well, you fit the bill, more or less. Are you the one we asked for?"

"Dark sphere? So you couldn't see anything else?" Aur asks Torkvahk, while he waits for the match to load.

"Uh oh.... Wait that make me and Tor psychic, we can read eachothers minds..?" Kyerine questions aloud looking down at Tor.

"Tor just said some kind of weapon or something, I think a ship relating to urm.... Whatever the human world-government-military-thingy is called again." Kyerine tries to answer but legitimately doesn't know the correct answer.

The insectoid make a low rumble to Mirelle, not pointing in any particular direction nor moving. Its quad-mandibles moving to a slow stop.

Brig

Michael after a few long moments has a sudden beeping echo from the keypad under his hand. Pulling it back up he seems to have overridden the security on Matt's cell, pressing a button and lowing the barrier on the cell. Drawing from his back pocket as he went in the metallic object from before, a short kitchen knife.

Alexander

The Docks

Russell followed the other two out, going quickly quiet as they do so. He had his extended cane in one hand even if he was clearly trying not to use it. His head tilting around, maybe even a little worried or uncertain doing this now. Following onto a spacestation where he really wasn't sure what to expect.

"Yeah, okay." He responds to Peter still "looking" around cautiously around himself. Trying to take in the sounds and examine the echoes of what could be seen in the new environment.

"After time adrift among open stars, along tides of light and through shoals of dust, I will return to where I began."

Alexander Docks

A cloaked woman, red hair hanging over her face, leaves a cargo ship nearby. As it turns to leave the dock, she waves at it, a smile on her face.

"Thank you!"

Brushing her hair out of her eyes and neatening it, she goes and sits against the wall. She pulls out something from a backpack, and sets it leaning against her stomach. A small, lovingly hand-painted sign.

Looking for a ship going anywhere Can pay.

Right at the end is a heart painted in bright red. With her other hand, she pulls out a palette and a small piece of thick canvas, and sets them on the ground next to her. She then pulls out a paintbrush, and gets to painting, sign still standing up with practiced ease on her part.

Troperia Bridge:

"See and breathe, I could not. The thing...around all and far me they threw, weightless I was as if." Torvahk continued to explain, mostly managing to mask his sense of discomfort at the sense of helplessness.

Alexander - Science

The scan would read that while Dominic seems mostly human, and is indistinguishable at first glance, he has a noticeable amount of alien biology mixed in, particularly in his nervous system, and is also otherwise heavily genetically engineered.

"I think you have the wrong person. Who are you looking for?" Dominic answers the man.

Alexander - Mr. Panuchi's

Izzie looks over to Lex. "You... don't know what I actually ordered, do you?" She asks, with a slightly teasing smile, starting on her drink.

"Interesting." Val says simply, drinking before resuming. "Adapted for the Terran calendar... reminds me of Hestia. It was terraformed to have a faster rotation, matching that of Terra." He shares.

Alexander - Restricted Access

The drone continues to hover and spy on the two men, keeping a close eye on the boy as well.

Alexander - Dock

Peter notices Aasha as the group walks around the dock. "Hm? Should we talk to her?" He asks the others, unsure of what to do.

Bridge

"Damn, that sounds painful." Mitch says to Torvahk in sympathy.

"Wait, you're a telepath too?" He asks Tor. At Kyerine's non-answer, he glances back and forth between the two, waiting for a more proper one from the doctor.

Troperia, Bridge

Mireille nodded "So you don't know then... okay..." She paused shorty, thinking what she could ask next before suddenly getting an idea "Hm, say, do you understand what we call writing? If so, could you tap two times?"

"One may feel fear in the face of danger so long as one banishes fear when danger actually arrives"

The Troperia

Bridge

The insectoid looks curiously at Mirelle for a few moments, tilting its body to the side a little before laying back flat again and tapping with its second-left leg on the ground again twice.

Wating for Baron Green for the other part

Brig

Michael moves over towards Matthew the same oddly out of character smile and glint in his eye as he did so. Taking the kitchen knife and drawing it across the incapacitated teens arm slightly, a cut a few inches across and deep enough to draw blood. Placing a finger besides it where this strange spark is seen jumping between the two, followed by a small series of very small metalic sparkles of some kind but they were tiny.

Meanwhile the hand holding the blade, brought it up near his view and examined it for a few moments, wet with blood before licking a tiny bit off. Coughing reactionariy to it. Though after he gets over such, managing to keep the hand by the arm steady; there was this faint shimmer in his eyes above, for just a second Michael's eyes turning a bright golden hue similar to Matt's.

"Uh who are you talking about..?" Russell questions before tilting his head around more, trying to get better focus. "You mean the person holding... Whatever that is, a sign or something?" He questions, not able to see and therefore read said sign.

"After time adrift among open stars, along tides of light and through shoals of dust, I will return to where I began."

Troperia, Bridge

Mireille gave a nod and smirk "Then wait just a little second for me" With that she sprinted out, around a minute or so late she came back with a big thing "Phew, had to go to my lab, now wait" She quickly wrote every letter of the common - i.e. english - universal language on it with much space between them "Do you know how the planet or station from where you come is called? If so could you point to the letters one at a time so I can write it down?" She looked at the insect with a sparkle in her eyes.

"One may feel fear in the face of danger so long as one banishes fear when danger actually arrives"

The insectoid starts to point out with a pedipalp letters from those presented by the doctor.
C-R-A-D-L-E-O-F-S-H-A-D-O-W-S-N-A-R-K-E-E-R
Its slits that can only be assumed as eyes while it was indicating seemingly elongating sideways, widening slightly. Perhaps adjusting its field of view.

"After time adrift among open stars, along tides of light and through shoals of dust, I will return to where I began."

Troperia, Bridge

Mireille carefully wrote down everything. Cradleofshadowsnarkeer. Based on guesses she put spaces in where it seemed appropriate "'Cradle of Shadow Snarkeer'... or 'Cradle of Shadows: Narkeer' hm..." She wrote both down along with the word 'Neither' on the Whiteboard "Could you please point towards which spelling you think is correct or on the third if both are incorrect?"

Troperia

Bridge

The insectoid makes a odd motions with its quad-mandibles, perhaps the equivalent of shaking ones head before relaxing and letting them and the visual slits settle back. Pointing towards the second version presented by the doctor.

"After time adrift among open stars, along tides of light and through shoals of dust, I will return to where I began."

Troperia, Bridge

Mireille dutifully wished the other ones away "'Craddle of Shadows: Narkeer' it is then? Well that is at least something I can start my search on." She gave a happy nod "Do you know how you are called? If so could you show it to me as you did before?"

"One may feel fear in the face of danger so long as one banishes fear when danger actually arrives"

The creature takes a few breif moments to pause and look with a almost confused expression at the doctor before starting to tap out on the letters again.

Troperia, Bridge

Lohkelronetorevahtarlin... Mireille wrote that on the Whiteboard, adding some lines to separate it a bit. She tried to pronounce the whole thing "Lohkel-Ronetore-Vahtarlin? Did I say that right?" She tilted her head before quickly wrote a bit more on the Whiteboard. 'One tap: No; Two taps: Yes' So she wouldn't have to say it all the time.

"One may feel fear in the face of danger so long as one banishes fear when danger actually arrives"

The Troperia

The Bridge

The insectoid made a low noise for a few moments upon hearing the pronunciation by the doctor, tapping once with its leg... before making a another slight noise and odd movement and tapping again. Perhaps original going to say no but instead more of a 'close enough'.

"After time adrift among open stars, along tides of light and through shoals of dust, I will return to where I began."

Troperia, Bridge

Mireille nodded, guessing what the creature meant "Ehehe, sorry, I guess your name was not meant to be pronounced by species like me." She thought for a bit "But say, how is your species as a whole called if I may ask?"

"One may feel fear in the face of danger so long as one banishes fear when danger actually arrives"
