I've sailed frequently, and I've seen wonders at sea, but none of them prepared me for...this. Traveling among the stars is so far outside the realms of what I thought possible...but, I suppose that all knowledge is worth having. How is this done?

Ah - forgive me, my lords and ladies. My name is Imriel nó Montrève [there's a short pause, and then he adds, very slowly,] de la Courcel.

That's an elaborate name. Are you a vampire?

Either way, it's impressive.

[iwilltrytobegood]

I'm not sure I've heard stranger greetings. Imriel is more than sufficient, sir.

[evilbystatute.livejournal.com]

Sorry about that. I'm Doctor Hix, and... sir isn't necessary.

[iwilltrytobegood]

A pleasure, Doctor Hix. Do you know how the Admiral manages this feat?

FUCK IT. Have Inara.

[madrassa.livejournal.com]

The way it's done is unknown, but there are many theories and plenty of speculation.

Welcome to the Barge, Imriel. My name is Inara Serra. Have you been informed of your purpose here?

\o/

[iwilltrytobegood]

I'd be curious to hear them, my lady.

Yes, the Admiral has agreed to bring me aboard as a warden.

[madrassa.livejournal.com]

Inara is fine.

We're delighted to have you. Specifically, I'm delighted to see such manners boarding. Where is it that you're from? Is there a specific name that you prefer to be called in the ones that you provided?

[iwilltrytobegood]

Imriel, please. You'll have to thank my foster parents; I was raised by very polite people. I come from Terre d'Ange. Montrève is in Siovale.

Welcome to the Barge. I'm Martha Jones a warden and doctor in the infirmary here.

[iwilltrytobegood]

A pleasure, my lady. I have known some...excellent chirurgeons.

[toldastory]

Just Martha please. And it's lovely to meet you as well.

[iwilltrytobegood]

Martha. It's a lovely name. May I ask how long you've been on this ship?

[lastconfessor.livejournal.com]

Believe me, nothing really can prepare you for this.

[iwilltrytobegood]

So I would have expected. But everyone seems so used to it, I admit, I feel somewhat - misplaced.

[lastconfessor.livejournal.com]

Many of us have been here for a long time, so I suppose we have gotten use to it. It's only natural to feel misplaced when compared to that.

[iwilltrytobegood]

Immersion has treated me well in the past.

I'm assuuuming you don't know French. if I'm wrong we can thread in that language too XD

[stardustmemorie.livejournal.com]

It is so curious, is it not? [a pause, then in French:] I too found it quite a surprise.

Hoo boy, it's been a few years, but I might be able to puzzle through. xp

[iwilltrytobegood]

You speak - forgive me, messire, that looks a good deal like D'Angeline.

(((Though I imagine D'Angeline isn't quiiiite French. But close. :p)))

Hahaha we can be lazy >> It's late and it's been a while since I've RPed in French, anyhow

[stardustmemorie.livejournal.com]

[[I imagined it was at least somewhat mutually intelligible, like different dialects ?]]

Forgive me, your name reminded me of my time spent in France as a boy.

The name is too similar. :)

[acid_rayne]

You're gonna' tell me I killed your father and I should prepare to die, aren't you?

LOL

[iwilltrytobegood]

...Excuse me?

[acid_rayne]

Nothiiiiing...!

Greetings. That does sound a very noble name. I'm Armand St. Just. Are you a warden?

[written]

[iwilltrytobegood]

Truth be told, I prefer Imriel. I am indeed, Armand St. Just. Are you?

[written]

[young-idealist.livejournal.com]

I am, and you can call me Armand. Although there is an inmate here who has that name also, so I won't mind St. Just either.

I was also amazed at how this ship travels. Have you been up on deck?
