Matthys: Sir, Ensign Matthys Zondagh checking in.
Sir, I am ready for duty is there anything I should do?

OOC: Changed the topic to show Dagen
IC:

Dagen was perplexed with this ‘newly married’ thing. As much as he had lifetimes of memories where 2 of the 3 had been married and one of whom was a woman, Dagen was still finding everything to be a unique experience and, in these early days, frustrating. And so it was that he had utterly missed the flag on his schedule regarding new crew. He gave Matthys a quick ‘deer in the headlights’ look before recovering. “Hi.” He wiped his fingers of the muffin he had been eating and stood up. Reaching out his hand he offered it to Matthys to shake.

“Sorry, time got away on me this morning. Welcome aboard. We’ll get you going quick enough. Tell me of your time at the Academy. Is Old Phillips still teaching Mechanical and Temporal Physics?”
- Dagen, CE

Matthys grasped Dagen’s hand and shook it. “Yes, he is, I think he might be retiring next year though”
Matthys was perplexed by the idea of living many lives before this one. “Sir, if you don’t mind me asking, what is it like to be joined? What is it like to live many lives before this one?” Matthys said in a slightly confused tone.

OOC: Good catch on signing off. When I first started I sometimes wrote in my ‘signing off’ first then the post so I’d not forget it.
IC:

“That’s too bad, but he knows his stuff. A couple of years ago I did a refresher course with him. I first went through the Academy, oh, that would be almost 20 years ago now. I first met Phillips then. And if the didn’t remember me when I was back! I had been reassigned to the Mars Shipyards for the project that ultimately built this ship and needed to get myself caught up on all the changes. He was brutal with reading assignments.” He sighed and shook his head. “I’ll miss him.”

“You’re right, I am joined and am the fourth host of Thor.” Dagen relaxed, leaning back against the table. “Have a seat if you like,” he said, gesturing to an available chair that was actually without stuff on it. “It’s not like I have all the memories rushing through my head in a jumble. Thor holds them as though they were his own and, in a way, opens up the door to them if I am actively trying to wonder what similar experiences they had that I could use. But,” he continued, raising a finger, “I do catch glimpses. You know how you have little flashes of memory of something from years ago of something that happened, some event in the ‘now’ that triggers the memory. I have that too in a kind of flashback into the memories of the other hosts such that they almost seem like my own. It’s not perfect. Thor knows a lot, remembers a lot, has a intuition into the other hosts that are very intimate, but it is not recall of every moment swimming about in my head, or even his.” He paused. “Uhh does that answer your question? You’ve met Trills before?”
- Dagen, CE

Matthys nodded, “Yes, one of my friends were trill in the academy, he wasn’t yet joined though”
