Phosphophyllite | Land of the Lustrous

A.

[Idling in the mess hall, Phos is still more than a little overwhelmed by all....well, this. They barely know what to make of it all, the odd smooth metals and strange architecture and strangers that look somehow wrong, and on top of that, they're still feeling like they've just woken up after a particularly lazy hibernation.

The problem? It seems like night all around outside. The sky is black and dotted with distant stars, and they can't even see a sun from this particular window that might have any light to give. While others might be more focused on food and whatnot, they're lingering listlessly by the window, strangely metallic golden hands pressed against the clear surface. Sure, they've handled winter duty, they can manage if needed, but ugh. This is a pretty miserable way to wake up. Groaning, they can't help but whine.]


Can the lights in there at least get brighter or something...?

[They honestly don't know. They've never seen lights like these before. But it's frustratingly dim when they're still so tired, the station's low lighting barely even refracting off their bizarrely crystalline-looking hair.]


B.

[Phos doesn't have a problem helping out with...whatever it is they need help with here, they're not entirely clear on that. But by the entrance to the airlock, they do seem uncertain about one aspect of the job.]

Why do I have to wear something like this?

[They've got one of the special space suits held up before them and they're the odd materal a skeptical look. It's a lot of material, too. Are they really supposed to cover themself head to toe?

Granted, they definitely look out of place -- the booty shorts and high heels are an odd look for a space station -- so maybe they just have no experience with this sort of thing? It certainly looks that way, and by the frown on their face as they finger the odd fabric(?), they don't seem eager to try out this particular novelty.]



C.

[What is this?? It's not like anything they've ever seen before. And what kind of questions are these?? It's so vague and open-ended, what are they supposed to write? Well, they'll do their best...]
