[ Corners you in a deadend. No, Europa can be found wandering the halls, coming to seeming plain walls but a few typing on their I.R.I.S has a screen flicker to life with text rapidly scrolling down. Looks like they might be here for a moment.
Their attention seems heavily focused on it before they finally speak up without turning. ]
he will rudely just straight up try and read over their shoulder on the screen, though I'm going to guess most of it makes absolutely zero sense to him at all. ]
Other way round, I believe. You sent the message out.
Yeah, he can rudely stare, but the text for outside eyes will be mostly (REDACTED) and be a lot of gibberish text unless he's got spacial tech knowledge as well in that head of his. Make room, Molly. At the mention, there's a quiet sigh. ]
Mandatory requirement for Senior Crew, encouragement from Metis and Ganymede.
[ he does not have spacial tech knowledge :( and in fact the wall of gibberish text going by at rapid pace actually makes a weird jolt of panic go through him. I don't know NPCs are getting emotion share, but even if they aren't, the reaction isn't well disguised. ]
[ not a nerd... :( If Europa feels it, they certainly don't react as if they do. However, it apparently is a two way share, since he will be able to feel a muted dull calm from them. ]
Their roles simply require them to do some coordinating and planning with our own. [ A shrug. The screen flickers shut, and they seem to be on the move. ] They're more of the "face" of each group. The easiest to talk to.
[ imagine how terrible all the other tombtakers must be. or maybe it's just that lucien used to be more charming ... ? he tilts his chin up at the look, a little challenging to say something about it if they're going to be shooting looks around. ]
Aye. Though I expect you should know the answer to that. We all have profiles.
[ The feelings about it are... blank. Difficult to say if they simply do not care or something else. Either way, they make no comments about it. They face forward as they approach the Stasis Bay. ]
So you do. But I do not particularly care to read and memorize every single line of it. I am only here to do my work. [ As they enter, they come to the wall beside the gate as their I.R.I.S flickers to life and brings up multiple screens. A lot of tech mentions but shield maintenance stands out. ] A few of you have been curious enough to ask why they specifically have been chosen for work versus anyone else they know. Are you not the same?
[ the thought comes in someone else's voice, like it's been burned into his mind and he can't stop it from creeping up when he's asked this question. `You've the glint. Wherever you go, fate follows.`
so, no, he isn't specifically curious why he's been chosen. the answer is mostly: shit always just be happenin'. ]
Cunning? Clever? Unbearably good-looking? I've been chosen for work before. I've been Chosen for The Work before too. Perhaps whoever is pulling the strings saw that I have a way of getting things done.
[ Their visor flickers with a brief static of green at that thought until it settles. They continue on as if nothing happened. ]
That's generally how the application process goes. Choosing who they think will get work done. And with the offer of reward, people accept. [ A hand flicks, scrolling down the list. ] Nothing more and nothing less.
[ he picks a nail at one of his sharp canines just out of habit - trying to appear unaffected, bored - but there's a spike of that paranoid anxiety at the very thought. ]
Been made a lot of offers in my life. Think the reward on this one has to be quite good.
[ Sir, your paranoid anxiety. Someone should be worried about this but Europa continues on as if oblivious. That or just refusing to acknowledge it. ]
High pay in your preferred currency, or alternative in which can be discussed at a later time. [ Which they say as if they're reading it from a document right in front of them. ]
