[It's about an hour after the messages from Curufin and his mother. Your self-proclaimed leader is ready to 'lead' at you.]

Alright, we all heard the warning. Team leads, check in with your teammates both new ones and those who have been here awhile. We need people to volunteer making packs like the last mission for rations and supplies for everyone. Those with first-aid training should offer refresher courses or introduction demonstrations as we have some new people on board.

What kind of abilities and powers do we have on board that could assist with people who might be freezing? We need to brainstorm quick ways to make either potions or devices that we can give or use to prevent hypothermia.

They never give us much time with these things, so let's get on this.


[Second message not too long after the first.]

If anyone with a taser used it last mission and needs it fixed, let me know. If you'd like a taser, also let me know. These are specifically for those who aren't accustomed to fighting.

With Luke or with some way useful to the rest of us?

[shockinglycaffeinated]

What do you mean?

I can use my powers without Luke, but 'useful' depends on how you feel about lightning.

[runs_on_batteries]

I meant.. never mind. [It was a joke, but it's not funny if he has to explain it.]

And lightning is fun. I'm a fan. That could be very useful to us if we're up against ice monsters.

[shockinglycaffeinated]

It could be, but it's not exactly an accepted Force Power in my world. I'm concerned how those who know my world will react.

[runs_on_batteries]

Oh right, super dark and evil.

[He shrugs.]

But i like you so fuck 'em.

[shockinglycaffeinated]

[ Oh well.

She wasn't exactly expecting that reaction and the surprise is clear on her face as she tries to come up with a way to respond to such acceptance ]

[runs_on_batteries]

What? Was that too spoilery? Should I have acted more surprised?

[He feigns shock.]

My god, woman! For shame! Fo-

[He doesn't make it through that last one before dissolving into laughs. At least someone thinks he's funny.]

[ Tony's laughter is contagious and she smiles at him ]

Perhaps I am too used to the prejudice of my world, thank you.

It's hard for me to judge to harshly when I have enough blood on my hands to sink a ship. And I'm assuming you're not some evil being, unless my ability to judge character is seriously on the fritz. As far as I can tell, you're a lovely, friendly, witty woman who has just told me she can use some kind of cool magic/ Force... thing. That's all I need to know.

[ The smile she directs at him is the most open she's given since she arrived here, and genuine warmth comes through as she speaks ]

I will do all I can to live up to such high praise. Thank you for the kind words.
