[After two hours, give or take, the doors open. The computerized voice makes an announcement:]

Life support is fully operational throughout the ship. Bridge crew, please proceed to the bridge to view the full damage report.

((Characters are free to explore the ship. I'll answer whatever questions are posed to the computer, but it doesn't get replies so poke me if I don't seem to notice. o/

ETA: Assume the engine room is locked off for now!))

Nothing interesting. But we need your help with something.

[scribbly]

I don't wanna if it's boring.

[court_chesster]

But we can't do it without you.

[scribbly]

[MMMMM. she DOES like being important but she hasn't decided if she likes it more than she likes not being bored.]

...What is it?

[court_chesster]

We need to let the computer know what to call you. A name.

[scribbly]

Oh. ...What's the computer?

[#priorities]

[court_chesster]

That's the voice that talks to us.

Besides, I'd like something to call you, too.

[scribbly]

Oh. The computer kept yelling at me. [because she kept breaking things...... but okay, piggyback ride guy is all right, she'll work with this. she's a little iffy on the name concept, though.]

What kind of name? What's everyone else called?

[court_chesster]

Any kind of name. I don't think anybody else has decided yet. Why don't we help each other out?

[scribbly]

Well...okay. But only if your ideas aren't stupid. [She's a little more careful as she continues, though:] What someone calls you is important, right..?

[lets see how long she can take this seriously for]

[court_chesster]

You're pretty cute, so you should have a cute name, right? You remind me of a lion cub, or maybe a tiger...

[scribbly]

Those are the ones with the big scary teeth, right?! [she's way too excited about that... she has, at best, a vague idea of what lions and tigers are.]

[court_chesster]

That's right! And sharp claws.

[makes claw-hands in the air]

[scribbly]

[oh HELL yes she is all about this, claw-hands are an excellent idea and she's clawing viciously at the air and making angry growling noises. never has she been readier to tear someone apart.]

[court_chesster]

That makes you happy, huh? Maybe your name could be 'Claws'.

[scribbly]

[pppausing her slashing frenzy.]

Is that a name? Claws are things.

[court_chesster]

Well, more like a nickname. But it should be something you like.

[scribbly]

I like the big scary teeth and claw things... But I like coloring and yellow and flowers. And games. But those are pretty dumb things to call someone.

[court_chesster]

Daisy? Daffodil? Lion Lily?

...Those are the only three yellow flowers I can think of.

[scribbly]

Roses are yellow too sometimes! [This isn't a suggestion so much as it is her saying a thing because she likes that she knows that thing.]

They're all so pretty... Is it okay to have a flower's name?

[court_chesster]

They are, huh? I don't think I knew that.

The flowers won't mind, I promise. Do you like Rose?

[scribbly]

Roses are my favorite! Does it sound cute?

[court_chesster]

Super cute!

[scribbly]

Then...I think calling me Rose is fine!

[court_chesster]

Nice to meet you, Rose.

[pats her on the head]
