Namid lifted their gaze to the lilac-haired woman and offered another of their grins. “No worries,” they shrugged somewhat dismissively. “How long have you been at it?” They went to take a seat before realising they hadn’t introduced themself. It was rude… even if there was a 99% chance she already knew. “I’m sorry,” they chuckled somewhat inwardly and approached to offer a calloused hand. “Namid Argimeau.”

Her reaction time was improving, but still there was a moment of hesitation as Sair reached out to shake Namid’s hand. “Sair Songz. It’s nice to meet you. As for the unpacking, a little over an hour, but that’s including a couple trips to and from my quarters as I decided which books I wanted here.”
Dread flickered through their features at Sair’s hesitation, but they masked it behind curiously furrowed eyebrows and a short, warm shake. “And you,” Namid hummed. “Which books made the cut?”
Sometimes physical books could make a wonderful connection point, so Sair never regretted having them present. “Some medical and psychological texts I’ve collected over the years, and a few books of verse from home. Things I like to read on my downtime. “
“So, Namid, what brings you here to my humble little office?” Sair said, her warm smile touching her pale brown eyes.

“Oh....” Namid pursed their lips, trying to conjure something more than ‘just a check-in’, but their mind was irritatingly blank. “I’ve been aboard Manhattan for a short time and it’s been a fairly slow but even adjustment,” they explained as the words came, “so I suppose I’m here for a bit of a check-in and a bit of support.”

Sair moved over to her little sitting area, inviting Namid to join her. “Well, I can imagine we can accomplish both. Tell me about your adjustment period to the ship and what brought you here,” she said, settling into one of the armchairs.
