semi-closed catch-all;
who: Shai, Flint or Ellie.
what: general catch-all log for the month of May
where: All over the place.
warnings: none yet, will update as necessary.
notes: pm me if you want to do something/would like a starter, happy to whip one up. totally open to new/established cr with firefly/memoria stuff here too.
Shai;
[Shai can be found doing all manner of things. She works as an electrical engineer, so feel free to run into her at her place of work. Alternately, she can be found in the gym, jogging at four AM like a crazy person, showing off her extensive electrokinetic powers to crowds she can shock and awe, or hell, she will absolutely come up to you and say hi if you glance in her direction. Feel free to pick something and go from there.
She's also a consummate flirt, so feel free to run into her at a bar where she will definitely buy your character (man or woman) a drink and strike up a conversation in that context as well.]
Flint;
[Flint can usually be found in the library, or doing woodworking at a small shop he's taken out a rental on. Alternately, he hosts a weekly event at a set location near the woods where he teaches swordfighting and grappling! Talk to him about literature and he will be your friend forever.]
Ellie;
[Ellie has moved out of the communal housing complexes and into this awesome place. Existing CR is more than welcome to make house calls, she'll have contacted everyone she has a decent amount of positive CR with to let them know where she is now.
She can also be found in the park throwing around balls (want to get whacked in the head? this is your chance) and off in the woods practicing with archery and guns if you feel like stumbling across her there. She's also keen on monster fighting, exploring, and everything in between.]

[ He knows what his files say (of course he read them even though he wasn't supposed to.) Genji spent half of his time in a near catatonic state and the other half screaming and trying to thrash about. He doesn't envy the doctors and cyberneticists at all. ] But it was a decade ago and I am comfortable with it all now. Most people do not even have the chance that I was given.
[ Because he had information that Overwatch wanted, and the UN had plenty of money to spare. ] What about your world? Is it common?
no subject
One subset of culgenic capabilities call themselves regenerists. Healers. Their skill and power depends on what they can do, but I know of at least two that can rebuild limbs if they have a few months to work on a patient.
[It can be tricky, sometimes painful. It's an odd combination of healing and temporal manipulation that she doesn't fully understand - she tends not to use them unless a situation is dire. Genji's not yet seen her in a state of undress, but she's got plenty of scars beneath her clothing. Burns, stab-wounds, bullet holes aplenty. A bite mark, from one very interesting encounter. Her entire left side is rough and pebbled with road rash where she took a tumble off a truck. Orpheo's the only one who knows that their existence bothers her. He'd offered to pay for her to visit one of the higher-end regenerists and have them undone, but her pride wouldn't allow it. She's a soldier. Sometimes that means scars.
She relented only about one, and even that she sometimes regrets.
A shrug.]
There are traditional surgeons as well. The best hospitals along the Lattice usually have both on staff.
no subject
His eyes widen just a tad at what she describes. ] That sounds incredible. There isn't anything like that in my world, yet anyway. [ As evidenced by the fact he's held together with silicone and metal. ] I know there has been success in replacing damaged and diseased parts of organs and tissue with biotic technology. [ But he's a warrior, not a scientist, so he doesn't understand it much. Just that it helped save his life. ] One of the best doctors in the field helped in my own process.
[ He can understand wanting to wield scars as proof of surviving. Except now they remind his brother of what happened every time he takes off his mask. But... perhaps that is for the best.
He leans his chin on the palm of his hand, elbows rudely on the table. ] What is the 'Lattice' you mentioned?
no subject
Jump ports between worlds across a variety of solar systems. There are twenty-nine points of travel, all told. They needed something to call it.
[She lifts the tea, samples it with a sense of savour. It's hotter than most people could stand, but Shai runs a little warmer than most herself.]
no subject
His synthetic taste buds are dulled, but he can tell it's very good. He smiles in thanks and puts the cup back down on the table when she explains. ] We aren't even close to something that amazing in my world. There is a scientific colony on the moon however. [ He brings the cup back up for another sip. ] With talking gorillas.
no subject
Didn't know that was a thing on Earth. Animals, right?
no subject
[ It sounds so fake, he knows, but it's entirely true. He wouldn't mess with you Shai. (Well, maybe a little. But not this time.) ]
no subject
Sounds... complicated. And a little strange. But then, I control electrical energy, and I've heard tell that's plenty strange to normal folk. So. Si varia elo.
['Six of one, half dozen of another' in her own language, oop.]
no subject
[ Well, he knew a woman who was essentially stuck in time and his former commander can turn into some kind of wraith at will but... no electricity powers yet. (Not to mention he could summon a hard light dragon.) But who knows what the future will bring.
He takes another sip of the tea. ] I wonder what else from our worlds would seem strange.
no subject
[Which is true for everything, really.]
You seem to take an awful lot in stride, at least.
[Man after her own heart. It's probably why they get along - they're both fairly chill and relaxed individuals.]
no subject
[ Seeing his Master put things in such simple terms that made sense to him certainly helped. ] And I had a very good teacher.
no subject
Hilariously, so did I. What was yours like?
no subject
[ He takes a final sip from his cup. ] What about yours then?
no subject
Mm. Met mine in the final days of a war, before the armistice was signed but after most of the fighting had stopped.
[There's a lot more she could add that could flesh out that little backstory, but nothing she's going to divulge in the middle of an eatery.]
She was a schoolteacher before it all began. Little ones, five or so. So she had that manner to her, in dealing with folks. She's very kind.
[Everything Shai knows of kindness these days, she learned from Liranya. So that's something.]
no subject
Ah, a war. Somehow he's not surprised; she holds herself in a way that he saw in his former commanders. Genji smiles a little as she continues and talks of her teacher. ] She must be, with how you speak of her. There is nothing quite like genuine kindness in someone, I have discovered.
no subject
No, there surely is not.
[She leans back in her chair, and pushes an errant bit of hair that's escaped her braid from her face.]
Well, a toast to them, then. Absent friends, genuine kindness, and present company.
