A few things:

[ Exile doesn't waste time with pleasantries. She's sure they're all thrilled to be here and there's probably more than enough whining and nonsensical banter going on. Good times, thanks but no thanks. ]

So, how many of us are here? At all? And how many of is are out of the pods? Does anybody keep a tally?

Besides that, I know there are some Force sensitives out and about. You've probably felt me, too. You know that feeling of dread and despair that permeates the walls sometimes? That's me. I'd be interested in hearing about the state of the galaxy from where and when you're from.

[ Her main reason to know who's who is to avoid them, of course. She can't help but feel like she needs to keep tabs on anyone that might be a danger to others though. ]

And lastly: card games. Show me yours and I'll show you mine.

Comments

[saucius]

I mean, it's a noun.

[ Get your shit together man. ]

[badgerlock]

You have no idea what it means, do you?

[saucius]

Antique means old. And antique is an old thing. Usually you use that term to imply it has certain value.

[ She knows about antiques. Many of the ones in her world have probably killed a bunch of people. ]

[badgerlock]

We have relics.

[saucius]

That's basically the same thing, yes. Weird that you didn't know the other word.

[badgerlock]

Well no one I know wants furniture that isn't made specially for them.

[saucius]

That sounds like a lot of work for a piece of furniture.

[badgerlock]

Furniture is work.

[saucius]

Yeah, serialized, mechanized, mass produced work.

[badgerlock]

Mass produced? Only if you consider the row of joiners a mass.

[saucius]

Machines, guy who I don't know his name yet.

That's not odd at all, is it?

[ Names are so whatever. ]

[badgerlock]

[There's a pause.]

It's Fitz.

[He should go by Tom. He should, because who knows, there may be someone out there who has heard of the Witted Bastard. But he is too tired for the charade, and Verity is dead either way, so why pretend?]

[saucius]

Fitz, okay. I'm the Exile.

[ Who is she to judge someone's name. ]

[badgerlock]

Was it cruel parents or a title gone sour?

[saucius]

I got exiled from something. Twice.

[ How does that even happen amirite. ]

[badgerlock]

Poor luck, that.
