You walk near one of the smaller groups of crew members and think about what you could say to start a conversation with them. But thankfully, they start the conversation for you.
"Oh hey, you're that new TNMS, right?" one of the females asks, brushing her dark hair out of her face. "I guessed from your white uniform," she adds after a brief moment. She looks a bit nervous to you.
"Yeah, I guess so," you reply, straightening your shirt a bit. "They're supposed to be getting back to me with my actual uniform soon though."
The female gives a smile and holds out her hand. "I'm HSC-V, Hesil Vayl. I specialize in high-speed combat."
You look down at her hand, feeling a bit nervous. You take it and she gives your hand a gentle shake. "I don't think I have a name like yours yet, but I'm Darren Valerius."
"I rather like the sound of that," Vayl says warmly. She lets go of your hand and steps back a bit. "There are my friends, Jun Phenyk and Merick Neenah," she explains, gesturing to a chyrannian and a human-draylinne hybrid respectively.
What will you do?
