→ text (a little bit forward dated)
[The message today is in text, because she doesn't want anyone to hear how her voice shakes or see how exhausted she is.]
I know there's a lot going on right now, so I'll keep this quick.
Anyone who knew Ellie Linton, she's gone back to her own war, about ten days ago, so if you were worried about not having seen her around, that's why. Sorry for not contacting people privately, it was a little hard to keep up with who all she knew.
[And maybe there's part of her that just didn't want to deal with having the same conversation over and over again.
This is easier.]
For our new arrivals: my name's Steph, welcome to our temporary moon base, feel free to get in touch if there's anything I can help with. This is my tenth month since arriving, so I know a thing or two.
I also wouldn't mind some sparring partners. Or if anyone wants to learn how to fight, I know about twenty different martial arts styles and I'm happy to teach people to defend themselves. Anything to help keep busy.
That's it from me, have a nice day, everyone.

Hello, Stephanie! I'd be happy to spar with you.
audio; private
She'll use audio just for you.]
Hey, Kelsier. [there's a smile in her voice, even if she sounds tired.] You know how to fight?
[She doesn't sound too surprised, considering how he moves, how he handled that knife, but it doesn't hurt to double check.]
audio; private
Ah — yes. My style is very unorthodox.

[ (unsure) ]

audio; private
I guess I'll find out what that even means when we actually spar, huh?
audio; private
I suppose you will. Do we have keeps around here, or do you use these small rooms?
audio; private
[She's gonna have to explain how they work again, isn't she?]
audio; private
That's very useful. You can practice keeping vigil.
[Look he made a funny 8D]
audio; private
I don't need to practice.
[so very smug, but it's put on]
audio; private
Oh! So my instincts were correct. You are perfect.
audio; private
Has anyone told you flattery will get you nowhere?
audio; private
It gets me into the houses of noblemen, and to their treasure. I would say it is very useful.
audio; private
It'll get you nowehere in this sorta situation.
[aka flirting]
audio; private
What situation?
audio; private
The whole... being charming thing.
[thank god this is audio because she's totally blushing]
audio; private
Does it mean something different, in the future?
audio; private
Is 'flirting' a term you're familiar with?
audio; private
[There is a long pause, and then, very ruefully:] This is not how we do it at home.
audio; private
How do you do it at home?
audio; private
audio; private
[She'd call that courting, probably.]
Flirting tends to be a little bit easier these days, though it probably means less. Or, like... [how to explain?] You can flirt without meaning anything by it, it can just be having a little fun.
audio; private
I'm happy to continue, if it is comfortable. [Wistful:] I do have a wife.
audio; private
I'm sorry.
[Because he's here and she's not.]
What's her name?
audio; private
[Thinking about them makes him feel a bit more normal, that there wasn't pain and strife in all their lives, that he built some kind of future for Vin.]
