[ This guy is expressive, she will give him that. And even if he was faking having it together - well, that's something she can relate to, as well. For her part, Hana crosses her arms over her chest and then tilts her head to one side as she hums thoughtfully. ]
I'm going to have to get used to creeps? Well, that's kinda normal for me, so...
[ Hana watches with undisguised interest as 76 deploys the biotic canister, and when the field around it appears, her eyes widen. That is definitely tech from home, she thinks, and it almost has her feeling nostalgic. Maybe he's— ]
Are we - from the same world?
[ Her gaze is fixed on him as she steps into that ring of biotic energy, and sure enough, the sensation of her wounds being healed by an almost mysterious aura is familiar, too. She gives 76 a once-over in the meantime, eyeing the get-up... then the visor. It rings a bell, and her gaze takes on a suspicious note as she slowly puts the pieces together. She's read news reports, investigatory pieces on a mysterious vigilante running amok (almost like some kind of comic book character or something, she thinks) and been advised by her superiors at MEKA about such a character. Could it be? ]
[ Ordinarily Hana would like to stay away from politics, as well, but unfortunately her position in recent years at home have her more embroiled in them than she would really like. Though since all that is apparently gone now... She has a chance to live a relatively ordinary life. She could just make a new life for herself here, live like an average refugee, without doing things like rile up the Royal Guard.
[ Hana does indeed make her way to the log, sort of hopping on her good leg to keep from agitating the wound on the injured leg before X'rhun is able to heal it. Once she's there, her gaze fixes onto him, curious as to what he's going to do. Eyes widen at the glow from his hand, then even moreso at the sensation; the area around her wound on her leg feels warm in a soothing sort of way. Unless it's really highly advanced tech that she doesn't know of from her world, its— ]
[clarke looks in surprise for a moment realizing the context that is meant for but she just ignores it and opts to focus on latter half of her response, glancing at the pink marks on her cheeks]
Oh— you used the paint for that? [she smiles slightly at that] It looks cute.
[ Her eyes go wide at the mention of cake because. Cake. While her diet as a soldier was certainly stricter than it otherwise would have been as a pro gamer - it definitely wasn't anything nearly as intensive as what the Crusaders must have had to stick to. Hana, after all, remains a young lady with a rather petite frame, if not a bit lithe. ]
[ Hana scoffs in disbelief. She wasn't all too happy with the Orbiters for dropping her into this mess in the first place, but they seemed to promise her that she would eventually get her mech and if that turns out to be a lie... she'll really riot. But also: ]
Yeah, I saw all that. Honestly, I could've just stayed up in that station. But I guess we have to do whatever it is they want us to do for them down here instead. Lame!
[ As he heals her, his eyes flick up to watch her face. He notes the surprise there, so heās expecting her to ask before she even does. He offers her a small, easy smile and a nod in response. ]
It is. Do you have such things where youāre from?
[ That's. Sad to hear. JJ's expression turns briefly into something sympathetic, because that isn't what he'd been trying to get at, and he's kind of disappointed to hear that Hana's got plenty of experience and fending off creeps.
It makes him feel a little worse about his flagrant behaviour. ]
No, not that. But the most unexpected things on El Nysa can end up being aphrodisiacs. That's why you might want to be careful, or you'll end up...
[ He waggles his eyebrows. In a... non-creepy way. ]
[ It would figure that it's this tech that causes all of the pieces to finally slot into place for D.va. It's something that's specific to where they come from, and if she's been in battle situations, then there's a good chance she's seen biotic healing in action. Angela's research has spread far and wide, to do good where it can.
It's hard to know how D.va will treat him now that she's figured it out. She owes him for the healing, at least, so 76 can leverage that if she decides to get an attitude with him. Not that any of those news reports mean a thing here on El Nysa. ]
Finally figured it out, huh? And you're that MEKA pilot.
[ He could have said, "and you're that pro gamer," or "and you're that pop culture phenomenon," so the fact that he gives her credit for the aspect of her life that really makes a difference is a kindness of sorts. He's aware of how young she is, at least. ]
Let's put what we have together and see what we can do.
[ no use forcing hana to walk when she's injured after all and while lena is strong, she isn't strong enough to carry her all the way back. being as short as she is sucks.
pulling her satchel off, she'll dump it onto the ground. ]
So, I do have some bandages and tape, disinfection too.
[clarke looks even more confused at the additional explanation because it's not like they had any of that back on the ark or on the grounder either but she does get the gist of it and she just settles on smiling back] Ah— right, well it still looks cute regardless. I think I've only seen grounders do something similar to that.
I'm Clarke— it's nice to meet you, Hana. Is the former a nickname you go by then?
[ The question gives her a pause. Because in between trying to keep her head down ( trying ) and actually getting settled in, she's been wary about keeping watch. There are other people, in her life, that are much better at it than she will ever be anyway. She's had that proven to her already.
But she listens to them. Which means that the most straightforward, but the most neutral answer ends up being— ]
They weren't. It hasn't been an easy few months from them, from what I heard.
