"So this is it."

[It was a statement, not a question, that was muttered in a low tone solely for his own benefit. Tieria Erde forayed onboard the Chalice with only a single intent in mind: assess the situation and take stock of the available resources. The fact that he was simply curious about everything that he had heard about the ship was hidden underneath this goal, not that he would openly admit it. He kept his distance for the moment, staying along the edges while he analyzed everything. His opinions would be kept quiet. For now.

There's a lurker who is intent on lurking, though he is quite noticeable. Don't mind him-- his tolerance for being 'social' has its limits.]

Comments

[fermionprincess]

Indeed it is, dear sir or madam!

[A girl in full plate armor stands proud, like if she owned the place.]

[deniedaccess]

Sir.

[His tone made it clear that it should have been obvious, if his comment was being answered by...a young woman. What was with the plate armor?]

[fermionprincess]

What kind of observation might be happening then, kind sir Observer? You are not a spy per chance, sent by one of White Chalice's many rivals and enemies to gather information for its ills?

[deniedaccess]

Tieria Erde. And I'm here for my own reasons, not as a spy.

[orewagundamda]

[Well there was someone he hadn't seen in a long time.]

Tieria Erde.

[deniedaccess]

[And there was someone that he could handle.]

Setsuna F. Seiei.

[orewagundamda]

... I believe it is necessary for me to apologize for taking Virtue's GN Drive for the 00 during the Ptolemy's trip to space.

... I'm sorry. [all spoken in deadpan.]

[deniedaccess]

It's not a problem; you did what you needed to do.

[Also spoken in a neutral tone. He's not going to argue against something that was necessary to the mission and their survival.]

[mecha_eihwaz]

[A new face skulking around and watching everything? Someone is bound to get suspicious. That someone in question is a weird young woman with metal parts, including disattached funnel-like wings. In fact, she's floating in mid-air.]

May I help you...?

[deniedaccess]

[She drew more attention than him.

...The weird woman simply made him more curious about the crew of this ship. What was this person?]

....I'm looking for the dining area.

[She did ask. It was a good place to observe people, okay?]

[mecha_eihwaz]

The place where people eat human food? It's not too far away from here, I can show you!

Are you new here? I don't think I've ever seen you before. And yet, you look familiar somehow...

[deniedaccess]

Yes. Please do.

[He didn't give the comment about 'human food' a second thought, though now he had true reason to label her as a 'person of interest'.]]

I couldn't tell you why I seem familiar because, yes, I did recently come aboard.

[redcomet]

[ Char was already in the mess hall. It was his break, and Haman had Mineva for the day. He'd been needing a day off, especially after that radio interview with Adette.

The uniform Tieria was wearing was a dead give-away, especially with how often he'd talked with Setsuna F. Seiei. It wasn't exactly the same, but it was similar enough to tell he was a Gundam Meister. ]

Celestiel Being's sending us another one?

[deniedaccess]

Yes.

[He nodded in greeting at the stranger. After the blonde and the exceedingly strange woman, it was nice to see a new face that was reasonable.]

Tieria Erde. I take it that you know the others?

[redcomet]

Char Aznable. [ Cue the inevitable reaction just about everyone he's ever introduced himself to has. He expects it so much at this point that he's pleasantly surprised whenever he meets someone who doesn't know who he is. ]

I do. I've been here for over a year, though I returned to Zeon for a while.

[deniedaccess]

...I see.

[He knew of Zeon in regards of the records in Veda and how it related to Celestial Being's primary mission, but he wasn't aware of Char's record as an individual. Perhaps before...

but wondering about that was pointless. It was time to move forward.]

What led you to come back?

[not_genki_desu]

"This is it"?

That's all you can say?

This is the freakin' White Chalice!

[deniedaccess]

...Is there something wrong with it?

[not_genki_desu]

Well it's just kinda dismissive. And you'd think after all the times we've saved the day, along with helping Celestial Being out we'd get a little more respect from you!

[rods_and_cones]

[[Feel free to take assess of the two non-CB GN-Drive using Gundams on the Chalice, both of which you should be familiar with; the Sadalsuud, and the Astraea. Both Red and Blue Gundams side by side, but, that's not the interesting part...]]

Welcome aboard, Gundam Meister.

[deniedaccess]

--Hixar Fermi.

[A man he only knew as data, before his access within Veda's systems was revoked by outside tampering. His existance on board was just as unexpected as the Sadalsuud and the Astraea. This would indeed be an interesting mission.]

[rods_and_cones]

Tieria Erde. Good to finally meet the Fourth Meister for Celestial Being in person. Or, is it more appropriate to call you the first?

[[Hixar, however, was an Intelligence type, so he knew how to socialize, and how to troll.]]

How are you enjoying the ship so far, mm?

[sunshine_maiden]

Exploring the ship?

[There's a friendly-looking redhead here, seeming to notice the unknown's tendency to keep distance and staying a polite few steps away.]

I don't think I've seen you around here before...?

[deniedaccess]

[She did indeed look friendly, and her politeness was noted with gratitude.]

Tieria Erde. I am, because I've never been on this ship before.

[sunshine_maiden]

That would explain it, then. Sora Myoudouin. Nice to meet you, Tieria.

Are you, um, one of the pilots on the ship, then?
