[ she holds out her hand and manifests a peony it it, not unlike the ones that are her hair accessories. it turns into a pink flame. she does not blow it like in the gif, but if he comes close enough, it should give off some warmth. ]
There were a lot of them. They were kinda over cautious about taking up time other people could use. [ said dryly though, because yeah? yeah. they should've got as much time in as they could. ]
[ he kinda. huff laughs. i can’t say shit because shu has willingly let someone stab him and then not had medical treatment for it for a few hours afterwards because of circumstances, there’s your fun bustafellows factoid for the day that i can’t reference in game because it’s beyond his canon point. ]
Maybe there should be more than two healing pods for a crew of 40. Even without the inflated numbers, there were still… what, regularly 30 people?
To give the benefit of the doubt, they said it was not supposed to be this dangerous. It is insufficient now. They should look into adding more after what has happened.
[ i'm getting us to 50 comments ara, you can't run from me.
anyway, holding cells. i love that sheba is probably right nearby, but he's wandering down to check on them both. whether they want to be seen or not, i guess. ]

[ she doesn't wait for a reply or look back to see if he is following, but she's going to the simulation room with or without him.
it'd be funny if the thread ended here. ]
no subject
no he follows. he doesn’t say anything because i think it’s funny, but he does follow. ]
no subject
into the simulation room, she goes! she doesn't mind that he doesn't say anything. silence suits her fine. ]
You asked for a way to show you. This is it.
[ but her handle on technology still needs work, so... results may vary! ]
no subject
hm. ]
The magic, you mean?
[ … he Gets It when they’re in the simulation room. yeah, this is a good way to go about it. ]
Alright then, I’m watching.
no subject
no subject
Huh.
[ he is Looking at it thoughtfully. ]
This is what magic is to you?
no subject
[ but there aren't exactly ghosts or anything around, which is what her powers are usually used for.
the flame turns into an arrow. ]
no subject
And you can just manipulate it like that? You just think of something and -- [ tah dah ]-- it becomes it?
no subject
no subject
That's more than I can do, so it's all relative, really.
[ :face smiling with tears: our double digit comments, ara. ]
no subject
I do not know if you believe me any more than you did, but I said I would show you.
no subject
I don't know if I believe you any more than I did either, but-- seeing it's something, yeah.
no subject
[ she simply wanted to follow through with her words. she does not need to be believed by others to know her own truth. ]
week 1, friday
no subject
Shouxue?
[ whatcha doin’ there girly? ]
no subject
This is a pittance for being locked out.
no subject
[ hm? ] Did you want to go in there today?

There were a lot of them. They were kinda over cautious about taking up time other people could use. [ said dryly though, because yeah? yeah. they should've got as much time in as they could. ]
no subject
[ said almost petulantly. dummies. ]
no subject
[ which, fair. but also please heal yourself. ]
no subject
[ she will say it. ]
no subject
Maybe there should be more than two healing pods for a crew of 40. Even without the inflated numbers, there were still… what, regularly 30 people?
Two pods is kinda cutting corners.
no subject
To give the benefit of the doubt, they said it was not supposed to be this dangerous. It is insufficient now. They should look into adding more after what has happened.
no subject
At least four, maybe. Two groups of four vanished, so if it happens like that again at least one group could heal up before the other stumbles back.
no subject
[ she isn't going to get her hopes too high, but she doesn't see why it'd be refused outright. ]
no subject
Think it's worth trying? If it comes from a couple of us they might be able to source another pod from one of the places we go to.
no subject
[ she isn't someone who will try to do everything or anything. that's too tiring. but this? ]
If we are told no, that's even more reason to trust this ship less.
no subject
no subject
[ she sounds maybe a little bit bitter about this. ]
w2, saturday
anyway, holding cells. i love that sheba is probably right nearby, but he's wandering down to check on them both. whether they want to be seen or not, i guess. ]
no subject
she is here to be seen! sitting! she can't do much else. she looks like her icon. ]
no subject
shu just sort of frowns at the barrier and then aims an idle kick at it. it does nothing, it's like kicking a wall. ]
...
[ welp. ]
So. What happened?
no subject
[ he needs to be more specific if he wants other answers. ]
no subject
I mean— how you got there. Anything you felt or noticed when you woke up. That’s what we’re still in the dark on right now. Why this is happening.
no subject
Nothing wholly unfamiliar to me, although it was as frightening as the last time I felt it.
no subject
[ ..... ]
Is it something like a manipulation then?
