"well, thank you again... um, this is kinda weird, I'm not supposed to be considers pretty yet"
The coy embarrassment also began to show on her cheeks. She let her hair down again to at least partially cover that part of her face.

"You're not supposed to be considered pretty yet? What does that mean? You seem-- y'know, I'll stop before this gets too awkward." The helmet reforms again, hiding his embarrassment.
-
"well... an Eldar's appeal to others in our society is based less on looks and more on knowledge and wisdom. Of course, looks do play some part though. I'm old by Human standard but still very young for an Eldar, and with that age comes an inherent [i]lack of[/i] knowledge and wisdom. Therefore I'm not considered 'old enough' to be pretty yet but the people of Ulthwé. I'm used to that of course; I've grown up around that society... but this it's kinda unexpected to hear someone say that. I suppose looks play a bigger part in relationships for humans then"
-
"Aha.. Mighty interesting.. But personality and looks. And intelligence. And you, currently score on two of those. Maybe even three. You're still a stranger. Stop it, me."

Edited by Moot: 6/23/2016 8:57:35 PM"yes, I'm still very much a stranger to you... so if you're flirting, I'd hold up a little bit" Truthfully Kolandra was left at complete odds in this situation. Shed never experienced something like this so directly before, and being trapped onboard a killer ship was already more than enough to get her mind racing with worry.
-
"Not flirting - just innocent compliments; why keep silent when someone looks good? It might make their day if you just tell them they look good." The helmet retracts back again, showing him; he was smiling innocently.
-
"you seem to be gaining a habbit of emerging in and out of your helmet lately..."
-
"Because I like hiding myself when I'm embarrassed, and then I show up again when I'm not embarrassed. Because I'm not a fan of being seen when I'm blushing my ass off."
-
"oh right, I see. Well, I guess that's understandable to an extent... though I wouldn't expect someone akin to a mech pilot to be prone to such embarrassment"

-
"excuse me? I... don't think I'm fully understanding of the phrasing of 'a hormonal teen' and 'asking out'..."
-
"I don't know how to explain it, if I'm being honest.."
-
"likewise... but anyway, this before you is... well, it's a camp, but I doubt it has a name" Kolandra turned on the spot with her helmet propped under one arm, and used the other free arm to indicate to the camp behind her, it's bustling white noise and minature spectacles becoming more noticeable now that attentions had diverted.

Maybe not best for me to stay. Will hang out here, maybe; unpleasant otherwise.. Maybe just avoid people? No, would be suspicious. Bad idea, very bad idea. Would get me killed, probably. Unpleasant."

Edited by Moot: 6/23/2016 11:10:33 PM"if it's any consolation, I've yet to talk to any of the members here, and I have no intention to do so... a hilariously large number of them possess nothing but narrow minds and bland thought patterns" She spoke with a mild underlying huff of disgust.
-
"Blegh, seems like they're all terrible people, truly. If there's anything I hate, it's people who are either xenophobic, racist, sexist, or homophobic. They make my skin crawl." His voice was one of pure disgust.
-
"likewise. Except for the racism. It's very common practice, almost celebrated in some respect, to hold resentment against other races... truthfully I think such ideals only lead to more violence than we already need"
-
"Which is precisely why racism is bad, don't you think? If we could all just get along with each other, that'd be great... But alas, there will always be assholes who started shit."
-
"yeah. We might actually stand a chance against the endless legions of Necrons, Tyranids, Orcs, and Chaos if the current races of sentience learned that we all had common enemies"
-
"Exactly! But instead we waste time and resources on fighting wars with each other, which is pretty damn stupid.. Imagine peace amongst the sentient races; that'd be amazing. Not having to live in fear of getting murdered every day..."
-
Edited by Moot: 6/25/2016 10:17:08 AM"as much as I'd like to imagine such a fate, I'm sceptical and doubtful that such an existence will ever come to pass... maybe it'll have to take a common threat far more sever than the ones we face now. Maybe it'll take this ship in order to unite every race capable of allegiance"
-
"I know, I know.. It'll probably never happen, but still. One can dream.. One can hope.. And just maybe this place has something up its sleeve that'll unite the races, like you've said.. More I think about it, the more likely it seems.. I mean, this place has been pretty surprising so far."
-
Ideas began to flow through Kolandra's mind in response to the conversation. She was hit with a barrage of thoughts. "... you... you don't think we're all here to serve some ultimate plan of unity, do you?"
-
That was actually precisely what Lucas had just been thinking, and he looked at Kolandra with surprise. She couldn't read his mind, could she? He just did know. "That is exactly what I was thinking, actually.. I mean, it'd make sense, wouldn't it? We all just arrived here, most having memory loss.."
-
Edited by Moot: 6/25/2016 7:00:12 PM"Agreed... and since you're wondering; yes. I can read minds if I'm concentrating hard enough. One of the perks of being a seer"
-
"Yes.. It's a bit too coincidental.. But uh.. can you stop reading my mind? I might scar you with the stuff I've seen in my life." He says with a chuckle, though his words were true. "Then again, I don't know what has happened to you so far.."
