[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.]

Maybe a little. People think good punnery is all improvised, but you have to comet some of it to memory.

Tell me about it. Especially when it comes to some of the meteor ones.
[...but his sense of humor's not that much better.]

[God help him he actually looks overjoyed about all this. One small step for manchildren, one giant leap for manchildkind.]
Tohru Adachi, by the way. Police detective and weapons specialist. Apparently. Anyway. It's good to meet you too, Mr. Drake.

Oh. Good to know. [It's always useful for thieves to preemptively identify the cops.] And likewise. Is there much need for a police force here?

[#debatable]

Oh yeah? I hope at least one of them has to do with those weapons. Otherwise I'm gonna be scared to touch anything you've handled.

[Adachi sulks, almost sounding a little discouraged at the assessment.]
I'll admit some of this stuff looks pretty advanced, but if they're anything like the weapons I'm used to back home, then you shouldn't have anything to worry about. Trust me.

[Well, probably.]
