Elysium Dormitories after the liberation, open to all

[Musse is nothing if not scrupulously attentive to her duties. As such, she is here to greet the new arrivals as they are brought to the dormitories. Although she is clearly a noble - her demeanor, bearing and method of speech make that obvious - she hopes that this can help to show that she, at least, is firmly on the side of the rebellion. She is here to greet them and to provide what assistance she can in feeding, assigning, and clothing the new residents, as well as helping assess their skills. If nothing else, she's been able to show her use by proving her knack for reading people's abilities and helping assign them to roles that would best suit them.]

Hail and well met. I am Musse Egret, and I'm here to ensure you are properly settled and cared for. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask.

Flotsam Waterlogged Row, open to all

[Somewhat surprisingly, Musse is something of a wallflower in this place but she enjoys coming anyway. The unbridled joy of Corsairs celebrating, swapping stories, and engaging in foolish challenges with each other is special to her. She'd never seen such a thing in her life as a noble, a genuine affection, even love for one's peers and comrades. She always make it a point to come here after a successful mission and soak in the atmosphere. Still, if anyone comes by, she'll make sure to call out. Any moments in this place she can claim for her own are special, after all]

Elysium, Musse's room - private to Maomao

It's been quite busy with the new arrivals. Tell me your thoughts.

That's...a different kind of hard than I was thinking of. I was thinking about restrictive social codes or high-stakes etiquette based on what you said earlier.

[ Angelika's smile falls off her face and she looks...worried for Musse. ]

[sapphirecontess]

Well, those are all issues too but I find the poisoning to be more salient a problem.

[fish4science]

Do you attend many parties that are like that? They don't sound very fun.

[sapphirecontess]

Of course. It's expected of the nobility.

[fish4science]

Oh-Oh forgive my impertinence...

[ She looks briefly horrified, worried that she has offended-but then a thought brightens her face. ]

Or does that even matter here? You've chosen to be with us after all.

[Musse waves her hand with dismissive amusement]

It is certainly not, I get far more of that than I need from high society. We are all equals here.

[fish4science]

Oh, yes, it's one of the better things about this place! Doing away with unjust and cruel restrictions, lowering the barriers between people. Here we both are, when outside, the world would conspire to keep us totally isolated in our own little circles.

[sapphirecontess]

That is indeed why we are all here. The Empire has much to answer for.
