week one, tuesday evening

[jettisons]

[Bellamy has dragged Raven out to the oasis today, hoping it won't be as packed as the beach, and it isn't. Luckily, they have the place to themselves, so he picks a spot out on the rocks and settles down.]

I ran into Akira earlier. You've got a good partner.

Comments

[She settles down next to him, slowly and carefully, only relaxing fully when her good foot is planted firmly on one of the rocks.]

He seems like a good kid, yeah. Smart enough, too. You talked to him?

[jettisons]

[Tracked him down, technically, but whatever. Look.]

We'll be looking out for each other, and I wanted to make that clear. Figured it wouldn't hurt to get him on board. He gave me a list of people he thinks are worth keeping an eye on.

[hydrazine]

In that they're a liability, or that they might be useful?

[The list, that is.]

[jettisons]

Useful, mostly. A couple that he wants to protect. Haru, Lief, Nino, and Jaffar. I added Newt and Hiro.

[hydrazine]

Newt and Hiro are definitely going to be an asset.

[and on this day, a legendary science brigade was born.]

What're your thoughts on Jaffar and Nino?

[jettisons]

I haven't met them yet. Nino's young, about 14, and Akira says Jaffar will go along with anything she says.

[hydrazine]

So as long as she's reasonable, he will be, too. Good to know.

[She straightens slightly.]

Did you let him know already that it seems like a good list?

[jettisons]

[He nods.]

For the most part. Why? There someone you want to add?

[hydrazine]

No. Just wondering if I should tell him it sounds like a good group of people to look out for, but it sounds like you got it covered.

If I do want to add someone, I'll let you know.
