[ On the other hand, Billy's just dressed in plain civvies - he'd warped out the cape a shirt and hoodie combo, keeping the CDC trousers and shoes on (they're actually really comfy). He waves at the guy from where he's sitting on his box, a few feet away from the entryway of their room, and if d'Artagnan's the type to look, Billy's got several tabs open on his blackglass - the network, the database files, various manuals and profiles.
Someone's been catching up on reading material. ]
Why is there a giant cat?
i checked with sam and we're ok to use koroleva for this!
[ D'Artagnan comes over to glance into the room, and sees Koroleva inside. She'd probably been either eating or sleeping when Billy showed up. Now, she seems agitated. ]
She's Alina's bahari. She lives with us, and she's mostly tame. She'll be all right. Come in with me, I'll introduce you. It's been a while since we had a roommate she didn't know.
Just stuff. The local-network wiki, some of the manuals. It's really interesting stuff, you know?
[ That said, Billy hits the home button and pockets the blackglass for now. Time for that later.
He's not a pet person by a stretch. He likes animals, but growing up in New York and dealing with the lack of space prevalent in storied housing Billy's about as fond of them as a chinaware storekeeper would be. He backed out of the room the minute the swishing tail he'd seen had turned to reveal a terrifying set of teeth. ]
"Mostly" is a very terrifying word in this situation, by the way. She came in with her when she got on the ship?
[ D'Artagnan leads the way, pushing aside the partition that screens off their room. Immediately, Koroleva is nosing over to him. He stays between her and Billy, and it's abundantly clear that she's trying to get around him to investigate the new scent. D'Artagnan reaches out, getting his arm around her considerable neck. ]
Shh, shh. It's all right, Koroleva, he's a friend. He's safe. This is Billy, he's our new roommate.
[ This stops Koroleva from moving, but her keen reptilian eyes stay on the teenager. D'Artagnan calls to him over his shoulder. ]
Come in and meet her. The bahari are the only animals allowed here. I think the Captain gives them special treatment. It's okay, she won't bite.
