Strike #1

[solittleeffort]

[This was not where she belonged. If it had been, she would have been in the citadel with Gol...but she wasn't. This wasn't where she had belonged at all. Instead, she had woken up to a cramped room, an uncomfortable bed, and a number of other things that did little to hold her interest. Maia was in absolutely no mood for such nonsense; she had a

[standardpackage]

Yer on a ship ,Suga'.

[Way to go, Captain Obvious.]

[solittleeffort]

[She frowns at the communicator, not at all impressed with this response...or anything about this situation, really.]

Who is this?

[standardpackage]

Name's Jinx. You?

[solittleeffort]

I have no intention of telling you my name until you give me information that is of value. So please tell me, Jinx, how do I get out of this place?

[ecopiracy]

[That voice is vaguely familiar, but it's been far too long since Phoenix heard it last for him to be able to pin down who it is.]

You are the unfortunate victim of Captain James Redd. Your guess is as good as mine as to why he picked you up, but no doubt you'll soon be encouraged to enjoy the voyage regardless.

[solittleeffort]

[This voice, while unfamiliar, certainly doesn't sound as utterly repulsive as the first person to answer her. However, the information he has is just as useless to her.]

I have no intention of being a victim. Perhaps you were weak enough to resign yourself to such a fate, but I have far too much to accomplish to allow myself to reside on a boat.

/bed time, will tag back in the morning~

[ecopiracy]

[Phoenix snorts, unimpressed with this woman's assumptions.]

And what makes you think that I have given up? I was merely stating the facts as they are, that you are an unwilling guest and that someone will likely admonish you to "kick back and relax."

But by all means, you have my best wishes should you endeavor to find Captain Redd.

[Is he mocking her? Or is he seriously wishing her luck? Perhaps a bit of both.]

All good, man! Sleep well! <3

[solittleeffort]

...

[Maia refuses to even dignify such a comment with a response. She was no fool, and she would not tolerate being treated like one.]

Imbecile.

[Well, perhaps could dignify it with a brief response.]

[crazyforcrazies]

Ahoy there!

Haha, just a little boat humor.

[Guy clears his throat.]

Welcome aboard the M.S. Elegante Miss ah ... Maia Acheron. This is an all-expenses paid, first class trip straight to the Golden Shore!

You should find your room well stocked, if there's anything else you need then just ask. Oh, and the name's Guy. I'm your go-to guy if you need someone to talk to. My office is on deck two, and my door's always open.

[solittleeffort]

[Maia only glares at her communicator as he hears that nauseatingly cheerful voice come out of it. She has already gathered all the information she needs from Jinx. Whatever this man has to offer is definitely nothing of interest to her.]

I do not need anything from you.

[thenotmagician]

You're onna boat called the Elegante. Th'Captain brought y'here.

[solittleeffort]

While the information is appreciated [not true], I have no use for it now. I have already had others tell me where I am. But do get back to me once you find information as to how I can leave this place.

[thenotmagician]

Y'can't.

fhdshf sorry will need to take a quick nap. dozing off at my desk. D:

[solittleeffort]

So I have been told. [She doesn't completely buy it, though.]
