[ Although the image is mostly Wash's face, there's enough background in the shot to make it clear that he's standing in one of the Eluvio's corridors. There's a door behind him and just off to the left is a sign that reads: SIMSPACE. Once the feed's going, he jerks his thumb back toward the door. ]

If I don't come out of here in like a day, send someone in to get me.

[ He pauses, making a slightly exasperated, slightly apologetic face. ]

And hey, if using this thing unleashes some kind of virtual reality nightmare on everybody, sorry. [ Does that require a little clarification? Maybe it requires some clarification. ] I've seen the old movies. I know how this shit goes.

[ Agent Washington. Always a pessimist. He offers a faint, tiny smile. ]

Otherwise, if anybody wants to visit one of the beaches on my homeworld, come on down. I can give you the grand tour.


( ooc: i figured the eluvio could use its own version of the holodeck! i posted a thing to the locations list so if there's anyone else who wants to take advantage of these things, be my guest! )

[No one expects the Nekomaru inquisition.]

That's incredible!! [He gasps for a moment, but he soon calms down.] Technology truly has come far... I'll have to keep that in mind. I'd rather run some sports-related programs first, but I'm going to remember that for future reference!

[sixth]

[ Wash thinks sports related programs sound more interesting than simulated shits too, but what does he know? ]

Near as I can tell, these things are available all the time. So you should be able to run as many programs as you want whenever you want.

[nodyinteam]

Gahahaha! Excellent! The training facility has been decent, but these simulations might prove to be even more handy for preparing athletes! I'll have to test them out myself!

[sixth]

Yeah, I think they're going to be. Gym's nice and all, but I'm used to something a little more challenging myself. This place might just be able to give me that. Probably can for you too.

[nodyinteam]

[Nekomaru wants to be careful about what he takes on due to his condition, but that's not something he'll be open about so easily. So he focuses on the other person instead.]

So you strive for new challenges yourself. Interesting! And what sorts of challenges do you favor?

[sixth]

Depends. Physical challenges. Agility, endurance, marksmanship. And mental ones. Strategy, puzzle solving, that kind of thing.

[ It's curiosity, not nosiness, that prompts him to ask. He'll back off if Nekomaru doesn't want to answer. ]

How about you? What's your challenge of choice?

[nodyinteam]

Hm, now those are legitimate practices to pursue! Well chosen.

As for me, I've always been one for sports. I'll take on a variety of sports-related challenges!! And maybe a spar or two!

[sixth]

Well, if you ever want a sparring partner, let me know. My leg's a little messed up, but once it's healed I'll be good as new.

[nodyinteam]

I'd be glad to take you up on that when the time comes! [He says with a crack of his knuckles.] In the meantime, good luck with your recovery!!

[sixth]

That'd be great. And hey, thanks, man. I appreciate it. Name's Wash, by the way.

[nodyinteam]

Don't sweat! As for me, my name is... NEKOMARU NIDAI!! Now don't forget that name, even if you go to hell! It's good to meet you!!

[sixth]

Don't worry. I've got a good memory. I won't forget you, Nekomaru.

[ He even says his name right! ]

[nodyinteam]

Ahahaha! That's the spirit! I'll sleep see you around!
