35th Frontier [audio // common]

Jun 11, 2010 21:06

[Phoenix is on deck twenty, contemplating the available vehicle options for perhaps the dozenth time. Actually, at this point, he isn't even really looking at the options anymore - but he is thinking, his hand on his chin as he considers.

Finally, he pulls out his comm.]

Who among the crew is in charge of the deck twenty programming?

you can take the pirate out of the sky, not my ship, precursors i miss flying, you can't take the sky from this pirate, paging the crew

The mechanic. He's busy though, why do you ask? Is something broken?

[That was always first and foremost in Meth's mind. What was wrong, what was broken, and was anything responsible for the damage?]

No. In fact, the system works brilliantly. It's sophistication and realism never cease to amaze me.

[Compliments, Phoenix has found, rarely hurt one's cause, especially when they are true.]

I simply wanted to ask if it would be possible to add other vehicle options.

metharchy June 12 2010, 02:36:58 UTC

I'm sure he'll be happy to hear that.

[The mechanic rarely wasn't happy, really.]

What did you have in mind? It's already pretty comprehensive...

ecopiracy June 12 2010, 02:48:03 UTC

There is an impressive selection of vehicles, but most of them are ground-based, with a few that are able to hover. I haven't yet found anything that can truly fly...

[It's difficult to keep the longing note from his voice.]

I don't know the limits of the system your engineer has built, but it cannot hurt to ask about the possibility, can it?

[The woman cocks an eyebrow.]

What are you doing?

ecopiracy June 13 2010, 02:06:56 UTC

What am I doing at this moment? Or are you asking what the purpose of my question is?

nottheaveragekg June 13 2010, 02:20:11 UTC

The latter, Phoenix.

ecopiracy June 13 2010, 02:36:56 UTC

I want to know if it's possible to add other vehicle options to the ones available on deck twenty.

Deck 20?

ecopiracy June 13 2010, 11:43:15 UTC

The racing deck. I take it you haven't been here yet?

/a week later FFT MY LIFE messyturk June 22 2010, 20:56:54 UTC

Been a bit busy with things. Nothing with an engine that flies... don't see a point then.

Real life, or LJ's glitchy notifs? ;3 Both are valid excuses! ecopiracy June 23 2010, 03:52:14 UTC

[Phoenix lifts an eyebrow, interest immediately piqued.]

Are you a pilot, then?

Why do you ask? [Nosy Edward is nosy.]

ecopiracy June 13 2010, 23:50:16 UTC

Because I would like to race in a vehicle that is not currently available here.

skin_and_steel June 13 2010, 23:51:49 UTC

Oh, lemme know if you do get one. I've never gotten to race before. [You can almost hear the wicked smile in his voice.]

ecopiracy June 13 2010, 23:57:22 UTC

[There's a slight pause. Then Phoenix smiles to match.]

There's nothing preventing you from racing right now. It just wouldn't be in a plane.
