[When the feed clicks on, there's a man sitting on a bench, amidst what seems to be one of the more lively areas of the ship. Is he lost, confused, or new? Maybe all of the above with stress on the latter, given the faint mixture of agitation and plain ol' disorientation on his features that all new arrivals seem to suffer through ( Read more... )

[Canada is passing by New Arrivals checking his messages (careful while walking and using your Guide, kids) when he hears the voice both through the speaker and in person. Despite the crowd it's easy to spot that suit.
Tentatively, Canada approaches.]

H-hello. Um, sorry, but I just heard... 3-6 is just a couple doors down from where I am. If you like, if it's not imposing, I could certainly take you there...?

[Erik looks up upon hearing the somewhat timid voice, to see someone approaching.]

[Before answering his question, though, he just gives a dry response] I wonder if you find yourself doing this often, with all the new arrivals?

Re: [action] maple_syrup_can August 9 2011, 20:39:00 UTC

Oh, no, I'm afraid I can't. I just h-happened to be passing by. But we get so many, p-perhaps it is someone's job... [He glances around, trying to see if he's stealing someone's work-]

Re: [action] magnetiferous August 10 2011, 03:52:26 UTC

[He shakes his head, lightly.] It was a joke. Granted, maybe hard to tell since I'm not in the best of moods.

Even so, I would appreciate your assistance.

Re: [action] maple_syrup_can August 10 2011, 05:43:16 UTC

[That- that was a joke?]

Ah- yes! No worries. It's my pleasure. It's just this way. [He gestures to one of the halls, then blinks.] Oh- unless you'd rather go to the clinic first? Those cuts don't look... too bad? But maybe you should get them looked at?

Re: [action] magnetiferous August 10 2011, 06:34:15 UTC

[Yes. :| ]

No, they're nothing to be concerned about. At least, I'm not concerned about them. I've had worse, and they'll heal soon enough.

Re: [action] maple_syrup_can August 10 2011, 07:02:35 UTC

[You're about as fail as Iceland at telling jokes. >.>]

[He is a bit worried when he says that he's had worse, but takes his word for it that he'll be okay for now.]

All right. I best get you to the room then.

[And he'll wait for the man to stand and gather his things before hesitantly offering his hand for a handshake. (Best to find out what kind of world he's from...)]

It's a pleasure to meet you. I'm Canada.

Re: [action] magnetiferous August 10 2011, 20:42:57 UTC

[Hey it's the sarcastic kind of joking, okay. And his humor is a little off at the moment, all things considered.]

[Standing and gathering his things he will do, although he stops and looks at Canada when he introduces himself, raising a brow. He offers his hand in return.] Erik Lehnsherr.

Your parents were fond of the country?

Re: [action] maple_syrup_can August 11 2011, 22:50:44 UTC

[Totally understandable given the circumstances. (Sorry Canada sometimes takes sarcasim literally...)]

[Ahh. Okay, clearly you're from Earth... but he can't help but think that the wording of his question is a little funny.]

Um, actually I should explain that I am Canada. A... personification of the country, you could say.
[He still doesn't quite like putting it that way, but it's the easiest way to get people to understand. And he'll answer the question about parents after Mister Lehnsherr processes this much.]
