Powers gave up on finding her striker as the lunch call sounded, figuring that it was likely in the machine shop for maintenance. It was then she realized she had no idea where the mess hall was. Meaning she had to ask for some directions.

"Excuse me seaman, could you direct me to the secondary refectory?" She asked, tugging on a technician's sleeve. The young man wearing said sleeve promptly turned to answer, only for his jaw to drop when he saw the questioner, then peered over her shoulder before looking back. Briefly turning to see what he was gawking at, Emily was met with a World War Neuroi movie poster someone mounted on a column, with her face (and the rest of the main cast) on it. And more than a few other sailors were beginning to realize who was walking amongst them. She better snap them out of it before they started asking for autographs, not while she was hungry. "Sailor? Give a girl a bit of direction?"

"Ah! Sorry ma'am. Second mess is six bulkheads towards the stern, then up a deck. You shouldn't be able to miss it.....ah, Lieutenant Powers."

"Thank you seaman. Carry on." With that, Powers strode out, taking in the hushed awe that was spreading faster than light among the crew as she walked along the deck. The awe of a movie star on their very own ship. Powers felt a certain swell of pride in their attention, and responsibility to her audience. She was on stage now, like heck she was going to let these expectant boys and girls down. But first, food. Her magic-hunger was kicking in again.

Walking into the mess, Powers found she wasn't the first one there as a Orussian witch was at the lunch line waiting for food to be served. Falling in alongside her, Emily picked up a tray and decided to make some light conversation as they picked up their meal. "Hamburger, mashed potatoes, peas, and...* sniff sniff* is that bacon I smell? Man, they're pulling all the stops to welcome us onboard." She remarked as the mess cook girl stacked up the buffet for the witches to pick and choose. "I'm Emily Powers, you must be one of the Orussian tank witches with us? Looking forward to seeing you in action."
