[ With no introduction... ]

back home, one of the main things I used to do was train people to control their abilities - i've spent quite a number of years teaching myself control through various techniques, as it's pretty essential for me to keep things in check.

in a bid to feel useful to the community, interest check:

anyone want training sessions? whether you have abilities you're struggling with, or are just looking to get some more control over yourself, I can help.

[Or at least, try to. ]

that'd be cool.

( No, she's not needy. )

i didn't tell you, but they gave me a job here too. delivery girl. i'm starting tomorrow. if i get paid per delivery do you think it's cheating if i just portal everywhere?

[tanker]

I'd think they gave you that job *because* you can portal everywhere.

[viatorius]

i hope they're going to let me explore on the clock, otherwise i'll be walking.

[tanker]

It's not that big a place, you'll know it like the back of your hand quickly.

[viatorius]

it's weird though, right?
we're on a moon.
not the moon, but *a* moon.
i was never much of a space girl, but even i'm impressed.

[tanker]

I try not to think about it so much, that we're nowhere near Earth anymore
I'm not sure I'm comfortable with the knowledge

[viatorius]

at least we know it's not forever?
we'll get back.

[tanker]

or we'll get people here, keep them safe
I'm just - worried about them all. Marcos, in particular.

[viatorius]

okay, well look at it this way.
we're pretty much pioneers. at least for our group. forging our way out into the unknown so we can find safety for everyone.
if we do this right, then lorna can come back, because we've given them a home. a place they can raise their baby. somewhere they can live that doesn't treat them any differently.
that's a good thing.

[tanker]

yeah, I know
I know what we can achieve here is exactly what we've been looking for, but
Worrying is kinda what I do

[viatorius]

i know.
just, i don't know, remember you're doing the right thing and also that marcos would want you to take a breath every now and again.

[tanker]

Yeah, I know he would. he's made that clear before,
but then again, i feel like the whole underground wanted me to take a break

[viatorius]

pretty much.
good thing i'm here to make sure you do :)

[tanker]

yeah? how do you plan on doing that?

[ God, John, are you attempting to flirt right now, really. ]

[viatorius]

i have my ways.

( Goddamnit. )

you'll just have to wait and find out.

[tanker]

well, I've got to say I'm... looking forward to it.

[viatorius]

speaking of waiting -.
gotta go deliver some supplies.
so you've got time to ponder my nefarious ways.

( She's an actual shithead, leaving him hanging. But teasing John Proudstar is her new way of life. )
