THE CAPTAIN:

[ Well that's something.] Who was that?
You do realize that a number of the other passengers here would take you with them correct? If you'd like to do something other than the Captain's bidding forever.
[Max wouldn't of course, but he's a little surprised she's not trying to exploit the passengers for her own gain. What is this benevolent nonsense?]

Aren't I!... But I'm sorry to say, I do probably still have more questions. Obnoxiousness might vary.
But I don't really like feeling like I'm interrogating you or anything so... is there anything I can do to make this a little more equal, though? Maybe if I could offer something than just pie?

[She scoffs but doesn't pursue the argument, not when there's much more important matters to get to.]
Of course. Besides, I hear you're all about research and experiments.
[Apparently deciding this means they're going for it--as if there was any doubt--she looks to Natsuno.]
Let's get him set up.
[Which mostly means she's going to stand there until Natsuno unpacks the box. In the meantime--she fixes the captain with a glare.]
But before we begin, you're going to tell me something. What happens to the people who just up vanish from the ship? Where do they go?

[For once he doesn't snarks or rolls his eyes when Rita gets bossy. He opens the box the unpack Wilhelm and set it on the floor. It's mostly assembled, with just a few separate parts left for Rita to handle.
No, he's not telling what's it for or what makes it fun. Right now he's curious to know how the captain would answer Rita's question.]

[...poor Fridays.] You'd think he'd install autopilot in the tender or something.
So the captain and Jenny have some sort of protection when they cross? To shield their mind at least a little?

No I wasn't here then. Delightful, how ominous.
Is that why you don't go ashore on the excursions?

They couldn't handle the transplant into a different reality. They rejected it.
[said almost off-handedly, as it's clear his entire focus is taken up by the odd little device, which he immediately crouches next to and watches intently.]
What's its name?

[Then he got an idea. An awful idea. Maximilien had a wonderful, awful idea.]
Would you like to learn how to shoot a gun? For protection should that happen, of course.

Ed hops up onto the guest services and sits with an almost theatrical flair, legs crossed and hanging over the front of the desk. He leans over the desk and smiles charmingly, disarmingly at her.
"Friday~ Who's a man got to kill to get into those glass jewel boxes?"
"Friday~ Who's a man got to kill to get into those glass jewel boxes?"
[great. not going to do that.]
Uh, no...uh, reason. Just wanted to pick up something nice as a, you know, gift.
Everything else on this ship is up for grabs--what's so special about the stuff in there?

Ideally you would be shooting people other than yourself.
Is there a reason you're already practiced at that?

[SO INDEED. He has some questions about these Fridays, but first - ]
I'm immortal now. Could I do it?
I'm immortal now. Could I do it?
Even so, it's nice to learn what you might like or want more than just what you were created. The Captain didn't create you to love or like Miss Jenny, right? But surely you wouldn't want to give that up.
I'll ask questions, but when I'm done I'd like to give you something else too.

-- Oh, for Mr. Bonnet, right? [/casually reveals that she stalks the relationships on this boat in very much the same way the captain does not.]
Well, they are really pretty, but they wouldn't make very good gifts for people with sensitive temperaments! [which is why she didn't nix ebalon's plan to give one to mizuki outright...] They aren't made of minerals; they're souls that the Captain took a particular liking to and wanted to display as a show of power!

[ all right, so. time to consult his phone because apparently he has a little list of questions, ] Hm, to start with... and these really aren't intended to offend,
Are you 'alive' exactly, do you experience emotions? Do you fantasize abou--actually, do you fantasize of anything in particular? How many 'batches' of passengers have there been, before us?

[he frowns at her, uncomfortable with being read so clearly] Nah, gift for myself, really.
Right. Course, fuck, that makes perfect sense. Like keeping teeth or something from your kills.
...And, yeah, how’s that work?
