Who: Nebula, Orion, whoever else?
Where: Route to Orion dorms from the caves
When: Day 135, afternoon sometime
What: Return from an extended trip to the caves

[There's a bloodied and scuffed up looking blank in... probably yellow, underneath the dirt, making his way back into the inhabited caves of Sabra la Tau from the less hospitable parts. Considering how dirty and tired he looks, he's probably been gone for a while, but he looks less pleased to be back and more irritated at how long it took to get here]

Finally.

Neb?

What is it? Don't tell me it's been so long you've forgotten my face.

[....]

Like hell I'd do anything like that. What happened?

[forgotmynuts.insanejournal.com]

What do you think? I wasn't staying in the caves because I liked the atmosphere.

[in_the_chair.insanejournal.com]

You could've gotten kidnapped by one've the Judges. ... I'm starting to think one of them must've fucked with you.

[forgotmynuts.insanejournal.com]

If the judges like making the caves loop back in on themselves in endless circles, then yeah, that could have happened.

[in_the_chair.insanejournal.com]

Possible. You sure it was just the caves?

[forgotmynuts.insanejournal.com]

If I was sure where I was, I would have gotten back much sooner.

[in_the_chair.insanejournal.com]

Yeah, I know. They're a bitch like that.

... why don't you sit down and get something to eat?

[forgotmynuts.insanejournal.com]

Sure. Do we even have anything?

[in_the_chair.insanejournal.com]

We do, for once. Cepheus is a huge help.

[forgotmynuts.insanejournal.com]

[nods] Good to know they're good for something.

[in_the_chair.insanejournal.com]

...

How about you sit down? Get some water and relax. We'll get you something decent to eat.

Nebula informed me I should come to you with my questions.

[in_the_chair.insanejournal.com]

... there's a question you haven't asked me yet?

[smoothdetecting.insanejournal.com]

I'm quite sure I could come up with even more, if you like. But the most pertinent one right now is about names. I've been directed to you twice regarding names, with the strong implication that it is simply part of your job. Have you given everyone on this team a name?

[in_the_chair.insanejournal.com]

... uh. Mostly? Nanatsu didn't let me, and the three I showed up with chose their own names. But everyone who's here now got one from me.

[smoothdetecting.insanejournal.com]

...That is a somewhat distressing pattern.

[in_the_chair.insanejournal.com]

...

Y'know, I never noticed it before now. Lemme think of something.

[smoothdetecting.insanejournal.com]

I doubt it honestly makes a difference, and yet...

Yes. Please do.

[in_the_chair.insanejournal.com]

Okay. Astronomy or a name from back home?

[smoothdetecting.insanejournal.com]

I don't particularly have a preference. Whatever suits.

[in_the_chair.insanejournal.com]

Well, my teammates'll kill me if I name you after one of my crewmates. But Monty or Scott are still perfectly normal names.

[smoothdetecting.insanejournal.com]

...Monty?

[in_the_chair.insanejournal.com]

Short for Montgomery. Anyway. There's plenty of star names out there. I like Sirius and Polaris a lot.
