Application for Caprica Six, Battlestar Galactica (2003 reimagining)

Nov 28, 2007 20:21

A tall, statuesque woman, so blonde her hair looked to be nearly white and dressed in elegant looking black pants and an equally flattering black halter top, appeared in the Sorting Room. She didn't look confused or disoriented, and she moved with grace and purpose to the table holding the application. She picked up the application and skimmed ( Read more... )

Ron had been trying to pay attention, he really had. He felt he was much too old to get all short-circuited over a beautiful woman. The whole thing was pretty juvenile, both for him and the girl. Besides, she seemed real religious, and there was something real shameful about going all creepy over her. So Ron just read the application with a certain level of respect or maturity.

Until he got to 'polygamous'. Hi. And then the application was over. When did that happen? Oh well.

"I'm Ron!" He was Ron.

Gaius burst out laughing. "Oh, how precious."

She once again ignored him and smiled at Ron. "Hi. I'm Caprica."

dungbombsrule December 4 2007, 19:56:16 UTC

Ron just smiled back. Alright, now what?

"So. You probably want a House, right? Got any leanings...? Towards Houses."

caprica_6 December 4 2007, 20:24:33 UTC

"No, I really don't have any preferences. I'm just glad to be here."

Gaius wandered back over, a martini glass in hand and a look of supreme amusement on his face. "Oh, is that all you're going to tell him? Boys his age dream of talking to someone who looks like you. Have a heart. Oh wait, I forgot, you're a machine. No heart to be found."

She wasn't quite able to hide the look of sudden hurt from showing on her face, though she covered it up quickly. "Could you tell me more about them? About Hogwarts?"

Ron looked somewhat concerned at the sudden flash of pain on her face. "You ok? Sometimes the trip over here is rough on people. Even if it's just over on the boat. Sometimes it's a bit bumpier." Like coming back from the dead bumpier ( ... )

Ruby couldn't help rolling her eyes at Ron; he was pretty obviously a humongous dork.

"All I was ever told is that Gryffindor is for the brave and Hufflepuff is for the useful. I don't know about the others," she replied in an attempt to be helpful.

dungbombsrule December 4 2007, 21:14:17 UTC

Alright. He hadn't expected the answer to be some new student in the sorting room. Especially someone who obviously knew less about this whole thing than he did.

"Thanks," he lied. He then looked back to Caprica. "Sorry, I couldn't really find out what's up with the Houses right away. I can mail Harry or even Pro- Mist- Dumbledore."

caprica_6 December 4 2007, 21:15:59 UTC

"Oh, it's nothing," she told Ron. "I'm fine. Upset stomach, that's all." A quick glance at Gaius showed that he wasn't pleased at being referred to as such, and she took a tiny bit of satisfaction from that.

She listened to the descriptions intently. It was rambling and slightly confusing, but she followed along. "Suspicious activity--got it." Gaius chuckled. "Believe me, I understand all about missions. Is this Harry the one from the questions? Just out of curiosity."

She smiled at the girl. "Hi. Are you new here as well?"

palewhiteand December 4 2007, 21:19:02 UTC

"Yes, ma'am," Ruby replied. "I'm still stuck in here, too."

She glanced over at Ron. So, he knew the people who were mentioned in the application questions -- he'd mentioned a "Dumbledore" just now. "So then who are Fred and George?"

Ron was torn between being happy to meet someone new and pissed that someone was butting into what was a very important conversation. About things. Ron sorta was blanking out on what they were (something about fluffy blonde hair?) but they were crucial things! But his better nature soon won over and any irritation shown on his features soon smoothed away.

He glanced at Caprica. "Well I could get something in the medical wing for you. I think Muggles used to eat gravel, which I can't help but think would exacerbate things. We got better methods here, trust me."

He then moved to answer both of them. "Fred and George are actually my brothers. Uh, really, they're not into Harry. Trust me, none of them are into blokes. And yeah, Harry was my best mate in school. Nice guy, real tops. Dating my sister now, so like I said... Where are you two from?"

caprica_6 December 4 2007, 21:41:52 UTC

"You didn't chose to come here?" she asked the girl, surprised. "How strange."

She shook her head at Ron. "No, I'm sure I'm fine. But thank you." She had no idea what a muggle was--some sort of bird, perhaps? Birds were such strange creatures, when you sat down and thought about it. Tiny flying miracles.

She thought it out, and then said, "If Gryffindor is for the brave, then why ask about that? It makes more sense if there's tight clothing involved like you'd mentioned, but not much." She spoke in the tone of someone trying to puzzle things out by speaking out loud--which was exactly what she was doing, really. "I'm from several places. I lived on Caprica for a few years, New Caprica for a while after, and occasionally on a Cylon Basestar. Most recently I was on a Colonial ship, the Galactica."

palewhiteand December 4 2007, 21:45:02 UTC

Fred and George were brothers? Ruby smiled sheepishly as she remembered her own answer to the Gryffindor question. Whoops.

"Gravel...?" she muttered, wondering just what sort of people Muggles were. How unappetising.

And in answer to Ron's question, she replied, "And I'm from Wisteria, in southeastern Amestris. That's where I've lived for the past several years, no moving around for me."

dungbombsrule December 4 2007, 21:53:05 UTC

"'A Mistress?' That's some name. Haven't been there yet, even though I've been there. Never been to Caprica, new or old. Or on a star." He looked at Caprica. "How did you manage that?" Ron then continued "I have been on a few ships. It's alright, if a little dull. Except for sometimes when you get someone who's picking off the crew one by one. That was a dreck of a journey." Ron rolled his eyes and shook his head.

He casually leaned against the sorting table, getting used enough to Caprica to speak like a normal person. "So, I guess the old ways to sort people still stands. Though even so, some Houses I remember being rougher than others. I wouldn't want to sort either of you anywhere you'd hate."

caprica_6 December 4 2007, 22:05:31 UTC

"A Basestar is a type of spaceship." She hesitated, then added, "I wouldn't expect you to have been to either planet. Unless I'm wrong they're both very, very far from here."

She shrugged, still smiling. "You've been here for a while, so I'll trust your judgment in regards to where I should go."

palewhiteand December 4 2007, 22:10:59 UTC

Spaceships and planets...? "Gosh," Ruby breathed.

Noting Ron's not-so-subtle thing for Caprica, Ruby suggested, "Should I let you two talk privately? It's not as though I know enough about this place to contribute anything important."

dungbombsrule December 4 2007, 22:27:09 UTC

"Oh, another planet!" Ron sounded interested, but not shocked. "Yeah, we actually get a lot of those here. Sorry, not those. I mean, interplanetary folks. Is... aliens a nice term? I guess we're all aliens, but I don't want to hurt your feelings. What's a good euphemism?" He shook his head. Caprica really, really didn't look like an alien, though. Maybe she just traveled in space, but was originally from around here? Aw, what if that was a disguise, and she really had nine heads? Well, he couldn't really ask ( ... )
