Peggy & Indy

Indy had to admit, he couldn't imagine being totally comfortable being on this ship, but on the other hand, he had nothing pressing at home. Someone would manage his class, he'd survived yet another adventure, and he had finally started to patch his relationship with his dad. While certainly a life he enjoyed leading, it wasn't like things would fall apart without him.

Hell, the chances of anyone noticing he was gone right away were pretty small, considering how much he was gone.

"Being by yourself can be great or can just make it worse. So I suspect you gauged your mood right." He grinned at her, unpurposefully his crooked grin, and offered the bread basket to her.

Peggy thanked him and took a piece of bread to nibble on it. After consuming two and a half drinks, she thought it was a good idea to eat something, and she appreciated that he was the one suggesting it to her. "I'm sure it's a big adjustment for you," she said, "considering I believe you hail from a similar time period as I do, and I know it was a big adjustment for me as well. Is there anything I can do to help?"

"I'm finally starting to get the hand of this place. The technology is beyond what I can fathom, but people themselves haven't changed much. I'm getting a good feel for this place. It's nice to have a few others from similar times, including my roommate." Indy paused for another sip of the bloodwine. He got it down without making a face this time. "Howard thought perhaps you had something to do with that, getting us paired up in the same quarters."

	Peggy couldn't actually take credit for putting Dr. Jones and Howard in the same room together, but it certainly made sense. "I don't do rooming assignments," she said as she sipped her own drink. "But it was fortuitous of the two of you to be paired together, yes." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"Oh, you don't? Howard really thought you had something to do with it."

Indy shrugged and swallowed back the rest of his drink, motioning to the bartender for a refill. After he was settled back with another drink, he looked over at her, taking her in. She really was lovely, features delicate but with strength behind them; she wasn't the kind of woman you wanted to mess with.

He looked away and took another sip of his drink. "So what is your favorite part about being here? You seem almost entirely acclimated."

"I'm sure Howard thinks I do a lot of things that I don't do or have any control over," Peggy said, amused.

"I've been here for over six months, Dr. Jones, and I adapt to new situations and environments fairly easily. Or else I wouldn't be good at my job." She sipped her drink and smiled at him. "I suppose I'm enjoying getting to know so many different people, not only from different parts of the world but different worlds entirely, and time periods."

Indy liked to think he adapted easily, but mostly he just ran on adrenaline. If it meant staying alive, he could blend in enough to stay alive. Otherwise, he wasn't that great at acclimatizing, at least not quickly. He was more like father in that way than he liked to admit. "That is true. Not that I'm over the shock of that, it's been interesting to see people from other times and worlds."

	"Agreed, but it does present a unique opportunity." He looked at his order of bread, frowning at the empty basket. He almost ordered another, but thought better of it. "Well, Peggy, thanks for letting me sit with you. But I've probably taken up plenty of your time for the evening." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
