Re: Third class, away from the dining room
"I have a sense of humor. I'll be laughing along with them while plotting something devious. Turning their hair rainbow, for example." Clearly she was not up to the level of pranking this ship was, but she had time to think of more. And Blue still doubted it was a prank or a hazing, since they were from different places entirely and it was extremely elaborate.
When he talked about his reasons for becoming a Jaeger, she stopped being distracted by paranoia and watched him carefully. "You are a knight," she teased. "A knight by any other name, would still be as noble." Blue grinned at him and patted a hand on his shoulder, still unfamiliar with the plastic armor he had on. She would have to think of a reward for him once this was done. Perhaps she could conjure gold, if he would have that. "I hope no monsters show up here. Even with you by my side, I think we can do without them. I'm leaning more toward getting off the ship and drinking a big glass of nectar." The whispers and giggles and lights, she was getting better at handling that.
Her eyebrows went up. "Why yes, Sir Knight, I'd love to get better use out of my wand." She couldn't stare at the wand too long because of how bright it was, but she was certain once her mind cleared she could do better with it. He was talking about something else, obviously, considering he had no magic to speak of. "Usually I just shrink down and fly away. I'm a little ... out of sorts. Do you feel out of sorts? Outside of the obvious." The farther they went from the scary area, the more at ease she felt.
Wide eyes looked between the two options, and she leaned toward the elevator. It didn't look terribly sturdy. On the other hand, more passages on the same floor didn't seem smart. "I think going up. Up is the best option." Blue called for the elevator and pulled him with her, a little color coming to her cheeks with the question. Why, no idea, truly, it was an innocent enough one. "I gave him exactly what he wanted. After he earned it. People have to earn their happy endings. Even fairies."
