[At a glance, Nate doesn't seem too perturbed for a recently spirited away from home guy who never expected to go into the upper atmosphere of Earth, much less make it to the far reaches of space. Either he's extremely adaptable or he's great at putting up a front. Then again, why can't it be both?]

This is where we all share a little about ourselves, right? [He raises a hand in a casual wave. Those who have met Nate since his arrival might notice that he is now wearing a wedding ring.] My name's Nathan Drake, my hobbies include climbing and digging into the really dusty parts of the library, and I don't actually like long walks on the beach that much. Which I wouldn't have thought would be an issue since, you know. Space. But then we went to Vacation Planet.

[The cheerful expression of an amiable wiseass slips a little, revealing something closer to wonderment.]

I've gotta tell you, when I boarded my plane home, I didn't expect to end up outside of the solar system. So far, space isn't what I would have pictured. But the view on the observation deck, wow—it's pretty out of this world.

[He chuckles at his own pun, because he's the kind of person who does that.]

Can't say coming here would have been my first choice of next career moves, but I can think of worse places to be. Anyway, good to meet everyone, or at least talk at you. [He shrugs.] Close enough.

[action for nomo #013; this is the first time Nate's returned to the ship since going down to spend a few days in the lap of luxury, and he's brought a few things with him. His area of the room isn't messy yet, possibly because he just doesn't have that much stuff yet, but there are a few packages stacked on his bunk. Nate himself is sitting on the couch, flipping through his journal when he's not playing with the MID.]

It's mine because I got here before you. [ She assumes that mostly because she couldn't find him in the directory when she'd arrived. ] And because I said so.

Why, you gonna try to fight me for it?

[ Since she's sitting in a chair in her own Nomo Deck room, Elena leans forward and looks across to the wall. Unless he meant the one she's closest to. ]

Give it a try. I bet you I can't because you're down the hall somewhere.

Then you didn't miss much. The prisoners were pretty similar.

[Shiver, etc. But the drawing's pretty good, for a quick scribble.]

Are you an artist?

[ That's not fun. That's just plain rude.

Hard and loud, that knock startles her. Her camera gets jolted as she jumps in her seat, eyes wide. It had come from behind— seriously, so rude. Elena twists around in her chair, gapes at the wall.

—what?

[ What are the odds. ]

Your room is beside mine?

[Import-exports, huh, Drake? Leia raises an eyebrow.]

...You mean smuggling.

["Ryuuzaki" has a low voice and sounds reasonably cordial, if not effusive.]

Hello, Nathan Drake.

What would have been your first choice of career moves?

Who's mad?

[ She leans over and bangs the side of her fist against the wall. ]

I'm just a little disappointed.

You caught me. Didn't you know that's what I used to do?

[ After all, there were too many times she was left alone. ]

[He plays along, pretending to consider the question.]

Not here, but maybe you could ask the captains to create the job title for you.

Still, if that isn't an option... what then?

How noble of you.

No, I have my reasons for being disappointed.

[personal profile] ryuuzaki 2016-06-05 03:31 am (UTC)(link)
No... merely a curious person. I've heard about the cat, by the way.

You mentioned climbing and digging into the dusty parts of the library. It sounded like it might be interesting.

I just thought it would take you longer. Like you'd actually have to go out and explore all of the ship just to find me.

I guess this means you're coming by later.

[Not too surprising. Possibly beneficial, frankly--if there's one thing she's learned over the years, it's that having a few criminals on your side isn't necessarily a bad thing.]

Look up Han Solo sometime. Or Lando Calrissian. [She gives Nate a little smile.] I think you'll get along.

[ Wow... Minus the hobbies, this guy reminds Wash a lot of a friend from home. ...A dead friend. But the jokes, the wiseass behaviour, and even his appearance... Weird.

Not that he'll comment on it. ]


You can think of worse places to be for now.

Our stops are normally far from being vacations. I'd say enjoy it while you can, but you might be better off trying to prepare yourself for what you're going to deal with once nobody's getting any more relaxation time.


[ This is his version of rolling out the welcome wagon. ]
