I know there used to be a port used for freight, but has been out of use following an enemy attack. So, out of curiosity how many of you are sailors?

[A pause as she thinks for a moment before continuing.]

To add to the question, how many of you have explored this world's seas and what could you tell me of what's outside the city. I've been meaning to travel this world's oceans but have also been told that traveling too far from the city tends to drain Chroma as you move away from it.

[Being on dry land has made her feel a bit antsy at not having to put out to sea for a good long while. Not that she had any problem living on land. More that she was a ship first and foremost. To be away from the salty water simply didn't feel right to her. She wanted to feel the breeze and ocean spray against her and listen to roar and crash of the waves as she passed through the water or flew high above.]

For those who are not sailors and have never been aboard a vessel...would any of you like to be?

[The last part was more or less an after thought. Enty hadn't really been thinking anyone here would actually have any interest in sailing; let alone the ocean. In either case she was in a good mood, if not somewhat bored (she might blame it on being bored).]

Comments

[resenting]

Well, the sailing part itself was fine, I guess. I'm supposed to protect everyone, so it can't be helped either way.

[lucky_e]

There's nothing wrong with attempting to help others, or having a sense of duty for doing so.

[Lord knows that was something she knew all too well herself.]

But would you like to give sailing a try without having to worry about protecting anyone?

[resenting]

There's plenty of things wrong with being forced into it, but I guess it doesn't really matter here in this world.

Might as well. Can't hurt to learn more about it, never know when I might end up needing it.

[lucky_e]

It is a useful skill. But if it's something that you don't hold much interest in then you shouldn't force yourself into it.

[resenting]

There's plenty of things I didn't think I was interested in that have saved my life. If you're willing to teach, I'm willing to learn.

[lucky_e]

Hm, I don't mind teaching; I was the one that was asking after all.

Can I know who I'm talking to?

[resenting]

Naofumi Iwatani. I'm guessing you've never heard of the Shield Hero, but that's me if that's an issue.

[lucky_e]

I'm afraid I've never heard of you before now. Just as I'm certain you and many others have never heard of me.

[Something about a Heavenly Fowl though....!]

I am the Eagle Union's Yorktown class carrier. USS Enterprise, hull number CV-6.

[resenting]

It's more convenient for me that people don't make a big deal of it anyway, so that's fine.

[Wait, she's a ship? Like those mobage back in his original world? This place really does have everything. USS Enterprise... that would be America, then. Eagle Union- well, better not make too many assumptions.]

I'm probably vageuly familiar with another version of you, but I doubt it's got any relation to you personally.

[lucky_e]

If you say so.

[Well if he says it like that then she might start thinking whether or not she should be worried. Enty doesn't say that outright of course. But yes, like a mobage, just with a semi-decent gacha system.]

Another version of me? [Well that's...interesting. She too, knows another version of herself. She's a real dickweed.] Hm, perhaps, perhaps not. I would have to know what this other version is like.

[Still that does actually perk her interest quite a bit!]

In any case it might be a bit before I can get others together along with a boat or ship. I can probably put together something to show you some basics in the meantime....do you know how to swim?

[resenting]

I couldn't tell you much, other than she exists. [And is an actual boat...]

Swimming won't be a problem. I can even fight underwater if it came to that. [Well, defensively, at least.]

[lucky_e]

Well that's all fine.

[Ship dang it, ship!]

That means one less thing to learn then. With any luck the only thing you'll be fighting is simply the sea's many moods. [Though who's to say what else there is out there?]
