I have to say, you're not doing much to make this place sound very appealing. The idea of space, I suppose I could get used to - it does beat being trapped in the tomb. But if you honestly think I'm wearing that God-awful excuse for clothing, you're sorely mistaken. I'd walk around naked before I put that thing on.

I'm also not so sure I like being so far behind the only other two I know there, but, well, let's face it - it's unlikely they'll want to have anything to do with me anyway. I suppose I'll just have to make new friends and find other ways to occupy my time.

Naked, huh? [ Yep, that's all Mason heard. Except not really. He heard the entire thing. ] I approve of that plan.

[manipulativni]

[ she gives mason a playful little smirk, coming close to him. ]

Of course you would. I have to say, if you ended up there as well, it'd give me a little more incentive to go without complaint.

[angerissues]

I guess it's your lucky day, then. [ Even when she stops in front of him, Mason doesn't move to touch her. ] She's got the application or whatever it's called about two-thirds of the way done.

[manipulativni]

It certainly is. [ another step closer, and now she reaches out to curl her hands around his wrists. ] Mine evidently doesn't have much to do outside of writing up the rest of my history and the samples. Looks as if we may be seeing each other again very soon.

[ really you’d actually walk around naked? ]

There isn't that much one can say, that even remotely make space sound all too appealing.

Though, you knowing people already on the ship will always have some benefits. Why wouldn’t they want to have anything to do with you though?

[manipulativni]

[ duh she has no shame. ]

They just don't like me. [ because she compelled one of them to stab herself and, on a separate occasion, tricked her into going outside so someone could turn her into a vampire, and that person just so happened to be the girlfriend of the other person on board. ] And I doubt there is anything appealing about space, but she seems set on sending me there, so I'm trying to look on the bright side.

[constructum]

[ we'll that will be interesting. ]


Why won’t they like you? [ yes, this is very relevant information she feels the need to have. as she is always going to be slightly cautious of everyone on that ship. so yeah. she just needs to understand, okay? ]

It's a big ship by the way and people tend to get lost. [ ariadne is no help about the positives in being on the ship. sorry. ]

[manipulativni]

[ katherine merely shrugs. ]

I'm not very nice. [ that much is true. she doesn't fault ariadne for being cautious; people should be cautious, especially around someone like her. but she's not about to give up specific details to a stranger; she's sure that if she does arrive on the ship, jenna and alaric will be quick to fill in anyone who'll listen about how dangerous she is. ]

[vampiris]

Naked, you say?

[manipulativni]

Well, mostly.

[vampiris]

Only mostly? How disappointing.
