 [Persons on or passing by Deck 12 might notice the Valei woman standing outside her room, the door wide open and a troubled look on her face. She paces back and forth, evidently bothered and continues to look from inside the room to the hallway outside. After a pause, she vanishes inside, moving carefully and when she returns, it's with a leap

[S'UP VIE?]

... You need more than half of a bed?

Audio

[gotyourwallet]

[OH HAI SANTA SANYA.]

Were it cut long ways, perhaps not. But the entire bottom half is gone and I'm not entirely fond of the empty space that's taken it's place.

Audio

[swordofhope]

What a coincidence. I am only missing half of a very ugly chair. Bed is fine.

[Another pause.]

And so is the sofa.

Audio

[gotyourwallet]

Half an ugly chair? That's not fair now is it. I was quite fond of my bed, but alas, now it is ruined.

[There's a pause on her side of the call while Vie takes a running leap back into her room. She wants her stuff back dammit.]

I'm currently negotiating a place to sleep with a friend. If that falls through, might I borrow your sofa?

Audio

[swordofhope]

Maybe it's not so ugly to someone else. But eh... I'm not sure how I feel about lime green and pink stripes.

[He waits - a little concerned at the pause. Don't do anything stupid, woman.]

Oh, da. You might.

Audio

[gotyourwallet]

[Small pause. Vie laughs a little.]

That does sound hideous. Perhaps it's loss is... not such a bad thing.

[There's a loud thud. Vie just failed to reach one of the books on her shelf and the damn thing hit the ground. She breathes a frustrated sigh.]

Thanks, Sanya. I appreciate it.

Audio

[swordofhope]

No, not so bad. Maybe they'll replace it with a better one.

[A pause - you can almost hear him staring at the comm.]

What... was that?

Audio

[gotyourwallet]

Just a book. I'm ah...

[How to say this without making him worry...]

I'm in the process of retrieving what I can from what's left of my room.

Audio

[swordofhope]

Is that a good idea?

Audio

[gotyourwallet]

...Probably not.

[She'll admit that much.]

While I'll accept that my quarters are no longer useful, there are items I am not leaving without.

[Her daggers, Godric's notes, whatever books she can save.]

Audio

[swordofhope]

Then you should be careful.

[Pause.]

Very careful.

Audio

[gotyourwallet]

[Her voice takes on a softer edge.]

Don't worry, Sanya. Before this ship I did this kind of thing for a living. Teetering on the edge of a cliff face isn't much different to this. I'll not fall.

Audio

[swordofhope]

Ah, but it is my job to worry about fair ladies when they are on boats breaking to pieces.

[He chuckles a little.]

Da, I will not come to rescue you from nothing. Promise. But you will call if maybe you find something you did not do for living.

Audio

[gotyourwallet]

[And this is why Sanya is, and always will be, one of Vie's favorite people on the boat. She laughs as well, quiet and thoughtful.]

You're ah... welcome to come have a look, if you wish? I need to search this deck for a bag of some sort else carrying all of this might prove difficult.

Audio

[swordofhope]

Ohhh... I am seeing how it is. You need someone to do the heavy lifting. You need mule.

[But, he really doesn't sound upset by this - amused, as usual.]

Audio -- 20 mins later, xhan remembers to hit send 8|

[gotyourwallet]

[Vie cracks up laughing. It's good to be laughing. She's a little unnerved by recent events.]

Those are your words, not mine. I merely invited you to come see the state of things for yourself and mentioned that I might need a bag.

[Her tone is playful.]
