PRIVATE MEETINGS

[andexecutioner]

If you'd like to have a private meeting with the Adjudicator, this is where you should go! The Adjudicator is available at almost all hours of the day; just knock and he'll answer.

Comments are screened for privacy; no eavesdropping, that's rude.

[She paces a little, cupping her chin thoughtfully.]

[Her next instinct is to ask for a bar. She's not an alcoholic, but this game has made a very compelling argument for becoming one. It's also markedly more difficult, since it requires very specific furniture and a good stock of liquor. But outright asking for one would feel like a confession of how troubled she's still feeling right now. And of course, many of the people here were young and susceptible, and would also feel tempted to make it a habit. There must be something healthier, something they can all enjoy...]

[And then an idea dawns on her. There was something that came up in her first conversation with Brady, when they had discussed surfing, which she had said they'd be lucky to find here. And it touched on a unifying element among their group -- the girl who showed up in the swimsuit. Their cook who had won his fish friend from the vending machine. The actual, literal pirate.]

[And truth be told, it was something she wanted, too. As much as the indoor plumbing had been a fascinating novelty at first, they were far removed from the sacred springs of Althena that dotted the surface of Lunar. A little more water might help ease the homesickness in her heart.]


How about a pool, or a spring? Would that be reasonable?

[...Well, that seems to amuse him a bit, though he shrugs at it a little.]

That sounds like the sort of thing I'd ask for, actually.

But yeah. If that's what you want, sure.

[oasisrose]

It does? You have some surprising interests...

[She almost reconsiders just for that. Your approval fills her with shame, Juri.]

[But, maybe that's just another sign of how water seems to hold a strange connection to all of this. The symbol of life and healing on Lunar, which carries the Blue Dragon's blessing...]

[She folds her arms in resolution, and nods.]

But yes. That's what I'm going to request.

[andexecutioner]

All right, then.

Anything else?

[oasisrose]

No. I think I've already gotten far more than I came here expecting. But you can bet I'll be back next week, whether it's there or not.

[There's a touch of confidence there, clearly, as if something's gotten her fighting spirit lit.]
