*All you can hear at the moment is loud static, with even louder static, as if fingers are running across the microphone*

Where is it--

*Suddenly, there is a sound of a switch being pressed and a loud cry of triumph from the other side...obviously from a young woman.*

There we go! I think it's recording now.

May I have your attention, everyone! This

amused at the beautiful part.

It is a pleasure to make your acquaintance, Miss Saionji.

XDDDD!!!

[sekaitoonajide]

It's good to meet you, too...erm...

[voice]

[toysandcards]

Is something the matter?

[voice]

[sekaitoonajide]

No, no! Just didn't catch your name...

[voice]

[toysandcards]

My name is Near. I'm the navigator for the Fiertia.

I am certain we will meet each other sometime.

[voice]

[sekaitoonajide]

Good to meetcha, Near~

Navigator, huh? Probably!

With a job like that, you've definitely got your work cut out for you. I don't know how you guys do it.

[voice]

[toysandcards]

[awkward silence]

We manage well enough.

[voice]

[sekaitoonajide]

I wasn't questioning you guys or anything! I was just saying that it had to be hard, remembering all that detail and charting just the right course!

I mean, I can read maps but I've never been good at that sort of stuff, you know? So to me, it's kinda cool!

[voice]

[toysandcards]

[insert even more silence, Near isn't too good at this dealing with people stuff]

My statement was not meant to be seen in a negative light, Miss Saionji. There is no need to justify yourself.

It does take some skill to deal with such details, but it is something that can be learned.

Re: [voice]

[sekaitoonajide]

Oh, okay. It's just that you weren't saying anything, and so I thought you were mad or something!

Sure you can learn, but to be good takes talent. Don't understate yourself! You should be proud of what you do!

[voice]

[toysandcards]

[more awkward silence]

It... is no matter.

[a pause]

I never did say that I was not.

[voice]

[sekaitoonajide]

...Are you okay?

...I didn't say anything weird, did I?

[voice]

[toysandcards]

Not at all, Miss Saionji. I was merely thinking.

Your concern is appreciated.

[voice]

[sekaitoonajide]

Oh, uh...okay...

Hey, it's not a problem. I just don't wanna offend anyone on my first day, you know?

[voice]

[toysandcards]

That is understandable.

I will look forward to seeing you around the ship then, Miss Saionji.
