Reessem wandered the corridor trying to find her room. The captain had told her she had a small room on this deck but every room she had found so far looked like someone was occupying it.

“Damn it,” The woman said in French turning to the console in the wall. This was why they needed someone with some organisation skills to organise and document stuff.

"It won't work." A voice commented from behind the woman. After unpacking her gear and setting up a few extra security measures on her quarters to make sure no one was able to access them without her knowledge, she had decided a tour of the ship would be the best thing to do, get a lay of the land and figure out the best places for holing up should the need ever come to rout someone from them... or use them herself.

One thing she had quickly realized however as that the power in the ship was still rather intermittent in regions, with some sections having little bar life support and gravity. Computer panels were few and far between in terms of working order as well. It was to be expected though, the ship was old and need it's fair share of work.

"What?" The young woman murmured turning around to look at the voice talking to her. "Really... Fantastic... Any idea what rooms are free?" Maybe she should have taken the Captain and XO's offer to show her around.

"Not a clue." Allison replied as she crossed her arms and leaned against the wall. Glancing the other woman over, Allison gave her an appraising look. The long dark hair, the strong jaw line, she was a looker. Young too. "You're apart of the crew?"

Reessem looked back at the woman taking her in. She wasn't the first woman to look her over nor the last. Reessem didn't mind, as long as people only looked and didn't touch.

"Qui... I'm your language specialist along with making sure you get paid and administration is done." She murmured knowing her job was hard but she didn't mind hard work, she was very used to it.

"Getting paid is important." Allison replied, "Barton doesn't seem to be a small details type." She shrugged, her shoulder rubbing up against the wall somewhat uncomfortably. "You must know a fair few languages then.... Always fun to whisper sweet nothings into someones ear in a language they don't know. Or you know, insulting them in every language you can think of." Allison smirked at the thought, not necessarily sexual things all the time.

Reessem smiled a little at that statement brushing a strand of hair out of her face.

"That I can do very well." She murmured staring her straight in the eyes. "Are you okay?" She wondered seeing the uncomfortable look on the woman's face.

Allison's face screwed up in confusion, "Why would I not be okay? From commenting about sex?" She snorted in a form of laughing. "My, were you sheltered as a youngin?" She asked somewhat rhetorically.

"You are rubbing the wall looking uncomfortable." The woman said softly. She had cetainly not been sheltered just because she looked young did not mean she hadn't been places. How did one end up in the sink hole of the universe without a little too much excitement.

Allison stopped and opened her mouth to respond before closing it. She had assumed the girl meant her smirk, but she supposed she had grimaced a bit at her shoulder rubbing against the wall. Chuckling a bit, Allison smiled, "I supposed I did didn't I. Well a bit of discomfort isn't always so bad. Pain is the only thing that makes you realize you're alive sometimes."

"Yes you did. Indeed it is and sometimes its all you have." The younger woman said watching her intently still. She still needed to find a room that she could claim as hers and have a shower before she started working through the admin for the ship but this conversation had unnerved her enough. She quickly excused herself, she didn't need anyone strangeness.
