[Sometime after the shop opens and the senior crew members ask for assistance, Rosamund starts seeking out new brains to pick. Theoretically it's a small group of people and yet she still feels like she's drowning in a sea of strangers. They're all so new and unusual and this place is so damn stifling. And — ah, here's one.]
Hello there. [She nods politely to the gentleman.] Strange times! Am I right?
[ the situation requires a sort of charitable nature that nodd was born without. at his best, he's dealt with their communal kidnapping by shrugging about it and raiding the vending machine. taking advantage of the pipe he received for his drugs key smoking.
he was likely on his way to find a Yes Smoking area when stopped. ]
A good way to put it. Your first time on a spaceship?
[ if she were to ask him to fuck off, he would do so, truly. but it's not bad to see miss rosamund. to get a quick chance to check on how she's been. ]
You beat me to saying the same to you, kid. You really put yourself to a fucked up, impossible task.
[She could never. Especially after their little adventure yesterday.
There's a stifled laugh at the turn of phrase.]
I guess you could say so. I've done gruesome things before, but this was...very different. I think. [She holds for a beat.] It really felt like this was a place where we could trust one another.

It's no surprise her venture for solitude is immediately thwarted. She smiles weakly at Nodd when they cross paths.]

Just because you share a prison doesn't mean you can trust who's in there with you.
[ that should have been gentled. ]
What I mean is... people will always surprise you, for the better or for the worse.
