[The feed is at a strange kind of Dutch angle and shows most of a young woman’s face partly hidden by long blonde hair. The one eye is flickering about, studying the area around the lens closely, and then the woman closes her eyes and takes a breath to collect herself.

Lua? Intriguing. {The name, that is. Along with that accent.} The main past-time of this ship has nearly always been survival, and the relentless pursuit of boredom.

It's pretty hard to get bored. [At least for her.] Seems like you have to work to survive, though.

Hmph. But yes, during those times of forced experience, one can manage little else but survive.

[just a little bit friendlier] What do you think of as "surviving"?

Welcome to the Barge, Lua! I'm Merlin.

dovehearted August 17 2011, 19:39:10 UTC

Pleased to meet you. [There's a pause for a moment as she closes her eyes to think; she's out of practice with this "amuse yourself" thing, since she usually just follows someone else's lead.] Used to go out to the pictures a lot, or dance. But the fun's who it's with.

Yeah. Yeah, it is.

'Pictures' - do you mean films? Martha, who runs the infirmary, she does movie nights in one of the common rooms every week or so. Everyone's welcome to those.

So I guess anything can be fun with the right people.

[a nod, like "oh I should have known"] ...so that's what that was about, with that girl. She was talking about some kind of war like everybody knew about it.

Hi there, Lua. Welcome to the Barge.

dovehearted August 18 2011, 12:59:48 UTC

[another kid or... no.] Thank you. Haven't met you yet..

My name is Chromie. I'm a warden here. There isn't a lot to do, but we have gardens and a library and a pool. There's a CES, a games room, a gym...

dovehearted August 24 2011, 19:28:16 UTC

[That does sound like a lot to do, actually.] People get out a lot?
