( open ) you are descended from animals

Who: Bruce Banner and anyone!
When: First half of March.
Where: Several places around the Moira.
What: A general catch-all if anyone wants to run into him on the ship since he won't be going down to the planet at all.
Warnings: None for the moment, will update if need be.
( a note: I'm good with both brackets and prose, so just pick whichever you prefer and I'll match! )


WORKING; SCIENCE DEPARTMENT.

Things seem a little calmer now, and while that leaves Bruce feeling wary of what might yet happen, it also offers him a semblance of peace and quiet. The planet seems interesting but not very welcoming, and for that reason he decides not to go down there and visit himself, opting for staying on the ship and spending a good amount of his time in the science department.

Especially as he starts getting data from the planet, helpfully provided by Clark, he dedicates himself to putting together a file with all the thorough information, as well as building a holographic projection of the surface, based on the images and sensors Clark got him. It's exciting work to him, even if it might not seem like much to some, and he can often be found at the department, poring over all the images and information collected.


TRAINING & MEDITATING; OBSERVATION DECK, GARDENS, RECREATION AREA.

It's not all work for him, though. He knows he can't push himself past a certain point of exhaustion, and even if things seem calm right now, it's always good to keep practicing a little, and keep himself well in check. His favorite meditation spot is the observation deck, and he's likely to be found there more often than not, sitting on a small blanket, legs crossed and hands resting over his knees. The gardens are also a close second, and he goes there a few times too, enjoying what little of nature they have on board.

At the recreation area, he makes use mostly of the pool about once a week, going for a few leisurely laps at odd hours, when the place happens to be empty - or close enough to it.


MEALS & DUTIES; MESS HALL.

Sunday, Monday and Tuesday afternoons are spent doing his duties at the mess hall, clearing out tables and making sure there's always food at the buffet for people to help themselves. Outside of that schedule, he can be found there during meal hours, sitting by himself and more often than not reading some file or, most likely, a book.


WILDCARD; ANYWHERE.

Run into him on a corridor, spot him at the library, what have you - Bruce regularly visits different areas of the ship so it's not unlikely for him to be spotted in a myriad of different places. Go wild!

Peridot's presence around the ship has been increasingly scarce, following her injury back on Emiri. Lots more time spent holed up in the armory, only emerging when her mess hall duties absolutely require her to do so. Strange, but perhaps not too far out of the ordinary for the workaholic gem.

Consciously, she's not really sure what draws her out of her own workshop and into Banner's office of all places, on this particular day. All she's really aware of is feeling restless, with the ship docked at a new planet and a lot of stuff still on her mind. The truth of it is, there are very few people she's comfortable approaching right now, in the wake of the strange visions the cryo chamber left her with. Steven is one of them, Bruce is another... Starflight, perhaps, although the two of them don't always see eye-to-eye very easily. Steven is helpful, but she feels like maybe she needs to be around someone who's not from her own world, in this particular instance, which really only leaves one option.

...Plus, Bruce has the benefit of being right across the hall.

She's not even looking to talk to him about her problems, or explain anything when she enters, which is the strangest part. She never used to feel the need to just... be around other people for no particular reason before she had to go into that stupid cryo chamber. Above all else, this weird need for socialization is the hardest and most confusing shift.

"So I hear that this planet exhibits a very unusual type of fauna," says Peridot as she enters the office, without so much as a hello or any other announcement of her arrival.

god I'm slow IM SORRY

She perks up, a flash of undisguised glee in her eyes at the sight of the hologram. "OoooOOOooohhh... Yes, yes, I haven't had the chance to go down there yet myself, either," Peridot rambles, plodding over to get a closer look. "Viewing it this way is far preferable to wasting my time heading down there in person..."

She watches the simulation, eyebrows raising slightly in her fascination. “Is this display all to scale?” she asks, gazing on in disbelief. “How are creatures of such massive size capable of flight without some sort of anti-gravitational or propulsion device built in to assist them?”

Peridot purses her lips, tilts her head curiously. Fingers tighten against the table as she squints at the creatures. "Interesting... What is the level of gravity on this planet? Surely it must be significantly minimal, for such a form of locomotion to be possible..."

"Well that's exceedingly troubling. Are we certain that this planet is actually safe to dock on?" she quips, frowning at the data. "What possible cause is there for an abnormality such as this?"
peridork: (Jesus christ it's a lion!)

"Oooooh!" That's a possibility Peridot hadn't considered. The idea lights up her expression, she perks up visibly, clasping her fists in front of her chest excitedly. She's obviously going off into one of her one-track spells, getting carried away with her own ideas.

"A whole new discovery... Why didn't I think of that? We must investigate this--! But... Gahhh, if only there were an abundance of other gems here to assist me with researching it," she complains, starting to look a little downtrodden again. The gem pauses, glances up at Bruce again, like she's only just remembering that he's still there. Cuts him off before he can get a word in edgewise. "It could be fascinating, you see, to research what kind of effect such a gravitational fluctuation would have on different members of my race. We are a space-faring species, our physiology automatically adapts to the gravitational pull of whatever planetoid we come into contact with."

"No no, all gems possess this ability regardless of their function," she grins, cocking her head slightly. "Generally the transition is immediate, but I don't think anyone has ever tested it out in an environment where the gravity also fluctuates."

"Me?" She laughs, shaking her head. What a silly question. SILLY BRUCE. "Ahahaha... No. No, I'm staying right up here where it's stable. I'll just see what information I can derive from the data. Or I'll ask Jasper, if she happens to go down."

Shrug.

"Are you going to go down there at all?"
