Lis'sa meets the squires inside the laboratory, behind its "Biohazard" labelled doors. She doesn't really offer much of a greeting, or even introduce herself - just waits inside the strange multi-storied library section until everyone is gathered, and then instructs them to follow her up the steps.  A great deal of models are suspended from the ceiling that look like space age designs for jet planes, cars, boats, and any number of other things. There are other objects that are much more inexplicable: a giant silver ball, suspended by several rods, for example.

There's another set of doors at the end of the balcony, and she swipes an access card through a reader besides them. They depress with a space age his. revealing a clean white laboratory, with rows and rows of tables and lab equipment set up. Numerous knights buzz around in white lab coats, working under microscopes and on computers, conferring over a number of projects.

"This way," she instructs simply, not sparing the lab a second glance, heading for a door on the left hand side of the room.  She presses a hand against the panel there, and the red light changes to green, unlocking the door for everyone's access.

Beyond is a very long room, with rows of labelled cases and cabinets with transparent glass revealing what's inside.  Lis'sa steps crisply to the other side of the large stainless steel table.

[king]

[ Not just to Andrea, either. ]

Sir Sweetheart strikes again.

[ He murmurs as he looks over at Katniss gone to be anti-social, and back to Andrea. ]

Have you ever had an IOU? You give someone the card that is exclusive to you, they use it to note that they're giving you something of a certain value, and later they can trade that proof for money.

[ He gets the impression it's a bit more complicated than that because technology, but hopefully it helps. ]

[piratitude]

[She arches a brow at him and smiles, nodding a bit]

Right. Merchants writs. Use them all the time for larger purchases like building supplies and the like.

[king]

Precisely.

[ A beat, and then: ]

Building supplies?

[ She doesn't exactly look like a construction worker. ]

[piratitude]

[Hey...she's stronger than she looks]

Mmmm. Timber, pitch, nails...that sort of thing. Not uncommon to have to rebuild whole parts of the ship after a confrontation.

[king]

You're a sailor!

[piratitude]

Yes'sir~

[king]

I didn't know women could be sailors.

[ Forgive him, he's practically BC. ]

[piratitude]

[She'll roll with it until she's sure whether it's ignorance or willful bigotry. God help you if it's the latter]

And why not?

[king]

Well, I don't know that I've ever met a sailor. But the ones in stories were always men. And you know, it's not very appropriate, is it?

[ A bit of both? ]

[piratitude]

[She laughs. It was honestly funnier than it was offensive. She knew she was a bit of a rarity.]

I don't really care much for 'appropriate'.
