very late may thing | Open

Who: Kore and OPEN
When: Month of May
Where: All over the ship
Summary: Kore is trying to settle in and pretend the Battle Royale didn't happen
Warnings: Historical nudity if you run into her in the Spa or Gym



Over the course of May, excluding the ill-fated excursion and few days after, Kore had a semi-predicable pattern, morning meal quite early, touring the ship until her midday meal which would be early by modern standards, taken to Calgona for the afternoon to use the gym as much as she knew how and the spa for 'baths' in the Roman style (what's a bathing suit and why?), then for a light evening meal around sundown and more wandering after. She may return to her cabin to work on her clothing (made from stolen linens largely and made up in typical Roman style - either wraps or tubes of fabric) or visit with people after and have a light snack before sleeping.

She can be found using ink from pens, mixed with alcohol, and tiny make-up brushes or toothpicks to paint or draw patterns on the clothing she's making, once spending several days (and several knives) carving a hairpin from a bone. While she has figured out how to 'shop' the modern garments are too strange and uncomfortable for her, largely.

After the events of the Excursion and 'dinner', Kore had all but locked herself into her cabin, leaving only for quick, brief meals while she tried to settle herself into something. She could be heard muttering prayers under her breath for protection and pleading for forgiveness. She wouldn't avoid people, and wouldn't ignore someone who spoke to her - but she wasn't seeking them out and was clearly calmer, the closer to her cabin she was.
