[A new voice comes from the communicators. It is low and just a bit gravelly, with a gently lilting accent. For a moment it is muffled, as if someone has his hand over the microphone, but then it clears up.]
Ah, hello? Is it true that if I speak into this device, people can hear me from afar?
[There is a short, disbelieving laugh.]
It's marvelous. Whoever invented it should sell it to my people. They would become hideously wealthy in days.

[The man walking down the corridor has the strangest eyes. One is pale and silvery; the other is not so much brown as golden. Each color alone could be considered beautiful, if unusual; but both set in his face they end up making him look jarringly uneven, rather than beautiful. He's also got small gold hoop earrings in each ear and a hoard of rings on his fingers. His simple travelling clothes look old, but they are clean and look as if they may once have been expensive. He's got a long stride, but he is walking unhurriedly. In his hand is the communicator, which his thumb keeps grazing over. If you approach him, he will smile and greet you.]

Date: 2012-02-17 03:41 am (UTC)I'm exploring, actually. I just arrived here. Is there something that I ought to see, though?
Re: [spam]
Date: 2012-02-17 03:48 am (UTC)Depends on what interests you. [ A pause, like it isn't quite enough. ] Seems like you're all right with the place so far.
[ There's a hidden question there, one she doesn't expect him to answer consciously: "Which side of the bars are you on?" ]

Date: 2012-02-17 04:04 am (UTC)I am already becoming accustomed to it. It was my choice to come here after all.

My name is Po. My I have yours?

A pleasure to meet you then, Lua. I've been here not one hour. Have you been here long?

Re: [spam]
Date: 2012-02-20 06:02 am (UTC)Will you tell me how it works, then? I'm afraid I know only what I was told by the Admiral, and that was precious little.
[He smiles gently.]
I should probably know better than to take a job with so little explanation beforehand.

Date: 2012-02-23 03:53 pm (UTC)And I suppose that we do not know why all of this happens to people here. This Admiral in charge would stop it if he knew where it was coming from, yes?

Re: [spam]
Date: 2012-02-24 09:53 am (UTC)The Admiral doesn't seem to care much for his charges, does he?
