[niffin]

sorry, did you want to rephrase that as a whole sentence?

[straightouttacarbonite]

[Well, that'd probably be helpful but he really does not like typing. Whoops.]

i want to know who i have to look out for

who did it

you said there were three of them

[niffin]

one was self-defense

[ It's straining the definition, but she's not about to warn someone off Sans. Not after their talk. ]

of the others:

- chara, human child, violent streak
- adrian, human, violent streak + superpowers

[straightouttacarbonite]

superpowers?

was he a really tall guy, dark hair?

1/2

[niffin]

not really?

2/2

[niffin]

[ a minute or so later: ]

please tell me a tall, dark-haired guy with superpowers didn't try to murder you

[straightouttacarbonite]

no, no one tried to murder me

[This is true, because he's pretty sure if the guy wanted him actually dead, he'd be dead.]

we just kind of had a disagreement

[niffin]

how big of a disagreement

[straightouttacarbonite]

the kind you can walk off but not the kind where you share a drink after

[niffin]

do you think there's reason for the rest of the ship to be concerned?

[straightouttacarbonite]

probably not

it seemed personal

[niffin]

could you point him out to me discreetly if you saw him again

or take a photo or draw a picture or something

without getting seemingly personally murdered

[straightouttacarbonite]

i'll think about it

[niffin]

please do. i can assist if need be, i'd just rather not accost every tall dark stranger on board until i find the stabby one

i ask because i'm a teacher here, and we've already had one unpleasant surprise

[ Sorry, Bruce. You're quite pleasant, when you're not the Hulk. ]

i'm trying to keep ahead of any other potential threats to students

[straightouttacarbonite]

I don't think that's what this is.

[on the other hand he has no clue what it actually is. Maybe the guy has some reason for his outburst.]

so is there anything I should know other than stay away from murderers?

[niffin]

i'm a little more worried about what it could become.

[ She hasn't forgotten Rinzler. And personal or not, collateral damage happens. ]

uhh let's see though:

- the medical tech is pretty advanced. your MID will put out a distress call if it monitors your vitals slipping
- before i got here they accidentally destroyed a planet
- it's safe to assume most reasonably public areas are recorded
- the cats grow on a tree. don't hurt them
- some of the doors here are locked for a reason. be careful what you open
- the liquor is free

[straightouttacarbonite]

how in hell do you accidentally destroy a planet??

[niffin]

apparently you overstay your welcome, someone gets shot, and a portal system destabilizes and cracks the core

[straightouttacarbonite]

what planet was this?

[niffin]

cauducus primary

the glass sculpture in the gardens is from it, i think

[straightouttacarbonite]

fantastic.

I don't think I signed up for destroying planets. I guess they don't use that as a selling point

[niffin]

who would?

[ excuse her. she needs to go drink. ]

i wouldn't worry too much about it though. i'm pretty sure that was a one time thing.

[straightouttacarbonite]

[The belt of debris that used to be Alderaan suggests that someone must. Han is not looking forward to Leia hearing about this.]

that's not really that comforting

but thanks for being honest about all this, it's better to know, i guess.

[niffin]

if you want comfort, ask cargo bay for a blanket.

[ If she's feeling snappish now, it's at least not Han's fault. ]

there's a lot we don't know here and a lot that isn't being said. by the captains, by the people they deal with. when we make the choice to break down some of those walls, it gets harder to keep us all in the dark.

it was nice to meet you. if you need anything else, please don't hesitate to ask. you can find me in the classroom or the library most days.

[straightouttacarbonite]

will do.
