Normally, Ninke wasn't a big smoker, she thought Lho sticks largely tasted bad and didn't understand why so many people seemed to like them so much. On the other hand, Persephone was one of the few people Ninke wanted to become a good friend too, seeing as most of her's were lost on Vernum, and being offered the lho stick she decided to make an exception. She was surprised when she located Persephone on the frigate at how happy she and the other wisps seemed, smiling and giggling... and nuzzling against Ninke who lalughed a bit nervously. She smiled and took thee Lho stick offered, unaware of its 'modified' nature, and took a decent drag on it. She coughed a bit, tiny squeaking coughs from being unused to smoking, but smiled and determined she would get over it. She was happy to join them in their littlle corner of D company, laughing and sitting with them.
She listened intently to what Persephone had to say about their new knives. It was very odd, she almost talked about the long steel objects like they were people, something precious... and their old knives being gone took something away. Maybe they were like her saint necklace? She thought about the silver necklace beneath her fatigues as she smoked a lot easier now with the the wisps. She was about to respond when the new CO called his little assembly, she quickly got up, nodded and said she'd speak with them later again. As she had run to the front of the line... surely it was nothing.
It was something. As she finished her question Ninke started to feel... different was a word... happy was another one. She ever so slightly swayed on her feet as a smile began to grow on her lips... D company was very nice and the new CO seemed good. She giggled that he was still in steel legion fatigues, and looked like a fish out of water. When she heard the Wisps called to the colonels office, she nervously looked to Persphone and gave an encouraging smile as best she get as the drugs began to take effect, itprobably came off as more dumb than encouraging. Regardless, she hoped she wasn't losing her newfound friend already...
