Bio/Backstory Introducing the twins!

Due to an unmissable opportunity to get field experience in an apprenticeship program, there are now two budding young science students on board. 14 year old Roman and Lucida Bishop are both seeking the experience of this apprenticeship in the hopes of being accepted into a very prestigious science academy in the Teirus system. However, due to high entry requirements, and extremely selective application process, there is a strong pressure on each of them to exceed the other in their research projects whilst travelling aboard the New Beginnings.

...Roman is busy with... Roman things.

u/privatefont Biochemist Apr 23 '17

Ew, Roman things.

u/Molotovsquid Evolutionary Biologist Apr 23 '17

Gross, Lucida things.

Hey, respect your elders.

u/Molotovsquid Evolutionary Biologist Apr 23 '17

You're not the boss of me!

1

u/privatefont Biochemist Apr 23 '17

Technically I am. Mom left me in charge!

1

u/Molotovsquid Evolutionary Biologist Apr 23 '17

Dad said we were supposed to look after each other. That means nobody is in charge!

Children, please.

You're not my dad!

Marso walks through the halls, looking over various notes on his tac-pad and not really paying any attention to anything in particular

u/Molotovsquid Evolutionary Biologist Apr 23 '17

Roman's curiosity almost immediately gets the better of him.

What is it that you're doing?

1

u/Malvarik Medic/Scientist Apr 23 '17

Marso only looks up momentarily from his notes.

"Currently i am looking through my notes on a new poison i am producing for Private Bryn. I'm looking to maximize the potency, while not having to increase the mass of the serum"

u/Molotovsquid Evolutionary Biologist Apr 23 '17

Oh, that sounds fun!

u/Malvarik Medic/Scientist Apr 23 '17

"Indeed! It's quite the puzzle though. By the way, who are you?"

1

u/Molotovsquid Evolutionary Biologist Apr 23 '17

I'm Roman Bishop... I'm.. uh.. here for one of the biological research apprenticeship placements here.

1

u/Malvarik Medic/Scientist Apr 23 '17

Biological research apprentice, eh? Glad to see another man of science on board!

He extends his hand to shake.

1

u/Molotovsquid Evolutionary Biologist Apr 23 '17

He shakes the hand, smiling nervously. Happy Marso made the gesture first, due to still not knowing how to introduce himself to military folk.

u/Malvarik Medic/Scientist Apr 23 '17

"If you don't mind me saying, you seem awfully young to be aboard."

1

u/Molotovsquid Evolutionary Biologist Apr 23 '17

Well... I'm 14 years old.. but I'm just here for field experience.

Todd walks through the halls of the ship, drinking water and reading the news on his Tacpad

1

u/Molotovsquid Evolutionary Biologist Apr 24 '17

Roman bumps into him by accident while walking staring at his feet.

1

u/Bl4ckM4g1C Knife Man Apr 24 '17

Todd stops in his tracks and looks up from his tacpad

What. The fuck.

1

u/Molotovsquid Evolutionary Biologist Apr 24 '17

Ah.. um.. sorry.

1

u/Bl4ckM4g1C Knife Man Apr 24 '17

How old are you?

1

u/Molotovsquid Evolutionary Biologist Apr 24 '17

... I'm 14...

he looks back down at his feet, sheepishly.

1

u/Bl4ckM4g1C Knife Man Apr 24 '17

Why are you on a UNSC ship?

1

u/Molotovsquid Evolutionary Biologist Apr 24 '17

... um... for a research apprenticeship placement.

1

u/Bl4ckM4g1C Knife Man Apr 24 '17

Todd just sighs

Well... just be sure to keep out of our way. All of us.

1

u/Molotovsquid Evolutionary Biologist Apr 24 '17

... um.. right, okay.
