Imagination 13, morning; Voice.

Given I'm going to be here for at least another day, I figured I'd update the out-of-date Welcome Guide thing we have. The last month has been ... Busy and I let it slide a bit. Last I looked, there should be copies next to all the carriage ICPs though they're at least a month out of date.

[Tired deadpan -even a bit sheepish- Eva is go, and by now, people should at least have an idea of why Eva's locked in a Medical Cabin.]

I think we should add a section on missions, but Lightning-san was handling this? [As far as she knew, anyway.] I also know we found out a fair bit this mission, and I believe we need to start record, as detailed as possible, on what we know about our situation.

[A sigh.] Regardless, if you have any additions to the Welcome Guide, let me know here or drop by my medical cabin.

(OOC: I've put up a Gdoc for the Welcome Guide and commenting should be enabled. Basically, if there's things on that that need updating or editing, make a comment!)

[She's not sure what she expected, but that wasn't it. Still, she's heard of weirder things than dream-person-made-real.

She exhales and runs a hand through messy hair.] So basically like a teether that's keeping you stable, then.

[She glances at her own, then grins.] Nifty things. That said, while we can't force people to wear them, I think we can imply doing so is likely beneficial in some ways and that if you don't have it on off-world, you can't evac to the train, or understand anyone unless they speak your language.

Unless you have a better way of putting it?

[ He nods to the tether example, but won't interrupt her otherwise. Speaking only once she's done. ]

I mean, if people don't need them, then they don't need to wear them. Your Welcome Guide's is for the newbies, right? [ He rolls a hand in the air, nonsense, just a motion made while he speaks. ]

It's just something for them to think about. If they think something's up or something should be up, that'll probably explain it. It could be the SCA helping them.

[ A pause, and Tidus draws back from his leaned posture. ]

Maybe there's been other cases onboard too. Of the SCA helping people out. [ He shakes his head, a sheepish note when he admits- ] I...haven't exactly been open about this 'til now, so...

[ So, he hasn't been asking many questions. ]

True, that, and it is, though once it's updated -and it does need to be as we lost half the Council within what, a month and a half?-, I'll put out a reminder that people should re-read it. Can't hurt at least.

[She offers a wry grin.] I'd say it is the SCA helping them. Without, you'd... not be here. Plus it also helps with allergies... which is something I should not down in the Guide...

Do you have about the three taps to evacuate? [ A sheepish tug of his own smile. ] I actually haven't read it in a while either.

[ Eheh. ]

I do, yes-

[Give her a second as she grabs the copy of the Guide she has, a pen, and starts scribbling yet again on it.]

How's this sound 'Your SCA -Safety Control Apparatus- is vitally important and if you think that something screwy should be up re your biology but isn't while on the train, it’s likely the SCA doing something to keep it unscrewy.'

Good enough to me! Some pickier guy might have something to say about the wording, but that's why I don't write these kinda things.

[ Being all formal and pretty with language?? No thanks! ]

But, you were asking about missions too, right?

I've never been one for formal unless I really have to be. Which for my language means a change in the register and word choice, and tone. It tends to suck, though I'm pretty sure Galarish has it worse...

[She shrugs. She's never spoken the language, so she really doesn't know. ]

Yeah, though I think Lightning-san looks after anything related to that, which is fair, honestly. The more we spread the work, the better.

Galarish?

[ He'll ask, just because he's not sure what (who?) she means, but otherwise- ]

It's just a basic run-down, yeah. Tell you what the mission was about, what teams did. Give the newbies an idea what to expect and let 'em know we're collecting supplies.

If anyone wants to make anything more in-depth and talk about all the things we did, I wouldn't stop them. [ He shrugs lightly. ] I got some pics from the last two missions. Two extra cameras going too. Roland thinks they'll work with the computer we got here, and printer. They're from his world, [ he adds, as way of explanation. ]

The language of a Region on the continent of Eselia. If I ever get my laptop, I can pull up the travel maps of the world I've saved on it.

[.... the Trainer Travel maps, but details.]

I'd probably encourage a more in-depth one at this stage, but it'd be a fair bit of work, so... [A Shrug, and then she grins.] They should; the tech from my world -Roro and Lele- generally interfaces alright.

Well, sure! I'm a nosy guy. Don't get sick of seeing other worlds.

[ He'll skip language classes, though. But anyway with the camera talk: ]

If your techs are similar! [ Then that's that. ] It's got a cable and hole to stick it in, so I think it'll be alright. But, I think someone'll have some fun writing about missions.

...

That isn't me. [ Eheheh. ] No one wants me on writing duty.

I'll remember that. [Said with a bright grin because look. She will talk your ears off once she can show the maps off and talk about her experiences within the Gym Cities.] But, either way, they should be if they have that, though mine work on Wifi access-

[ Wait, what???? Yeah. Eva stares a bit.] ...but all boys are good at paperwork...?

[Hello cultural assumptions.]

[ Tidus laughs. ] Good one. [ It's okay Eva, he totally gets the joke! Grinning at her put-on face. ]

I was too busy swimming. That's my excuse! You can't write underwater, you know?

[She blinks at him.]

Even if that, you should have classes on housekeeping; at least with the bookkeeping side? Or... is that not something boys are taught in your world....?

Uhhh... [ Now he's trying to think, confused by the confusion, except- ] Bookkeeping what?

[ ??? ]

Running a household... though I'm guessing boys don't do that on your world?

I had a boat? [ That...doesn't feel like it helps. uh. ]

Anyone could run a house back in Zanarkand I guess, but there's a lot to it. Me, we had a family solicitor 'cause of my parents, so I never had to deal with any of that.

If that what you mean? Food bills? Contracts? I didn't deal with the contracts either... [ now that he thinks about it. ]

A boat counts-

[Well, in her mind, at least. She's really not the best to be getting into this topic with, but here they are.] Yeah - that's pretty much what I mean, but if you had a family solicitor, then...

[She shrugs a little.] Cultural differences aside, if you don't want to be on paperwork, then no-one can force you.

[ He laughs a little out of confusion, that this totally went off nowhere, shrugging. ]

I've got nothing to write about anyway! There's better people around for that than me.

[One of the dangers of talking to Eva: She can and will talk about anything once she gets going.]

You've a point there, but I wouldn't say you don't have anything to write about.
