[meme] test drive

[citycouncil]

A bit late. Sorry, folks!

Tag into this post with characters you're thinking of apping to the game (characters who are not currently in-game or currently reserved by someone else). It can be just a tag, a brief EP, whatever you want. You can be new to the game, or simply want to test out a fresh pup. Tag each other with these characters or those already in game, and have fun.

"No, I'm not," said Cassian. "I was transported here too. A lot of people were. We don't know for what purpose." He instinctively put his hands to his belt: an open stance.

His body language was unthreatening and his heartbeat was regular. Whoever he was, he believed what he said. It made no sense, but he believed it.

"What are the risk levels of this planet?" I didn't expect him to be able to define them the way I would have been able to if I had a complete survey package, but I didn't. Knowing what he considered to be a risk might also be useful. Humans weren't always logical in their risk assessment, though.

Cassian automatically wondered what the risk levels were to the planet from a self-proclaimed 'murderbot'. Humans were a small minority of a planet's life-forms, even if so far seemed the only sapient ones.

"There's a welcome packet waiting for you at the train station," said Cassian, remembering how he'd been helped on arrival like this. "I can take you there. It might have that information for you."

As far as he was concerned, the biggest threat was from the City making him or Jyn disappear again as easily as they'd appeared. But he wasn't going to try to quantify that for this bot, who definitely meant something different.

I didn't quite understand why I have to go to a "train station" to receive a "welcome packet". Perhaps the feed was down temporarily and the data needed to be manually transferred with a data chip. It would explain why I could not contact any satellites for media, weather, or even general system updates.

"Thank you. I would appreciate that," I replied, and opaqued my faceplate. It was only wise when confronting a new situation with unknown risks. It also allowed me to focus less on my expression if this human said something exceedingly stupid.
