[well, Black*Star is far from pleased]

SHIT DAMMIT OW!

[sits nursing his burned hand, curled against a corner in one of the halls and staring at the dead captain in his sphere. his wooden dagger lays at his side, all but forgotten]

That bastard. That damn bastard! What the hell is wrong with this ship!?

[faintbynumber]

Seriously! Even though he's dead-

...

Fuck, the Captain's dead.

[numberonebaby]

I'm pissed I didn't get to off the bastard. [winces and shakes his hand]

Anyone got any bandages? [if all else fails he'll just unwrap his feet, but that's kinda icky]

[faintbynumber]

We've got more than enough other things to be pissed about right now. He would've been a hell of a lot more useful to us alive.

[ Looks like someone sympathizes with you there, if the tears and such are any indication. ]

If I had any bandages, I'd be using them right now.

[numberonebaby]

He was an asshole when alive. But it woulda been nice if he'd stuck around to help, I guess.

[sympathies always good when he notices it]

Know where I could get any? I can't get into my room.

[faintbynumber]

You're completely right, but we're fucked right now unless Orion manages to pull something off or someone else knows how to run the ship and there aren't any more traps.

[ He miserably holds up his burnt hand: ]

I don't have access to anything anymore either!

[numberonebaby]

I don't trust Orion either. That asshole's up to something too.

[sighs and goes to scratch his head, only to stop because OW]

Dammit.

[faintbynumber]

I don't either, but I'm sure as hell not accomplishing anything like this. The only useful thing I've got is the set of codes that we received and a record of all the messages that I've heard.

It's gotten down to about three options: believe that Orion's not a backstabber, admit that we're screwed, or wait for someone else to come along.

[numberonebaby]

Pfft those options are lame. Ain't no way I'm just gonna sit here and let things happen, backstabber or not.

Can't we fly the ship ourselves or something? There's gotta be someone what's a pilot. Hell, I'll do it myself! [proud pose]

[faintbynumber]

It's not like we've got anything to lose at this point.

That kind of thing is what I meant by waiting for someone else. Who are you, anyway, other than our possible future impromptu pilot?

[numberonebaby]

I'm Black*Star! [have a pose!] I'm the best assassin Shibusen's got!

[faintbynumber]

...

What kind of name is that?

[numberonebaby]

THERE'S NOTHING WRONG WITH MY NAME!

[faintbynumber]

You at least have to admit that it's a weird name.

How many people have you met named Black*Star? And who ever heard of a star that was black, anyway?

[numberonebaby]

It's awesome, not weird. And my dad was White*Star, what's your point?

[faintbynumber]

It's still a weird name. You're not gonna convince me that it isn't.

My name's Yukio: that's a normal name, if you couldn't figure it out.
