Nuala Duvall has posed:
    Space flight isn't new to Nuala, it's a casual event. She's done it since she was small. Without a ship, though, that's a little new. The ring certainly has opened up a lot of new avenues for her. The Sea Song detected some alien life on a meteor that is floating through the system, smaller than what most human systems can scan for, it's just a chunk of rock about the size of a person. Life signs, but too small to identify. So she took off into the sky, a blue streak as she made her way to the coordinates, her Nova uniform visible, combining with the look of the Blue Lantern coating she receives from the ring. Up past the Alpha Flight station she cruises, the blue comet tail trailing behind.

Green Lantern (Jordan) has posed:
    Green Lantern cruises towards the station and heads there without a second thought. It was a calm time for him as he returns to the sector of space that was his home. The last several days have been tough and a bit exhausting, but the sights of home were always a way to boost his energy. "Warning: Blue Lantern energy detected."

    Hal Jordan smiles, and heads where his ring had detected the ring wielder. With an emerald streak he moves there in a flash, but not too quick, not wanting that Blue Lantern to get spooked.

Kinsey MacKenna has posed:
What luck! Kinsey is not only on station, but on duty today as well, which ultimately means if unexpected guests come by (and there have been an alarming number of them since the explosion) she's the one they call to meet and greet.

The bulk of her day has been spent on paperwork. Apparently rebuilding a science lab isn't all fun and games, and eventually the paperwork catches up to you. Currently she's behind a desk signing all the things, and counting down to when she can legitimately take a break. There was a new cookie recipe she wanted to try.. something about those macadamia nuts Batman had mentioned.

Nuala Duvall has posed:
    "Green Lantern energy detected." Nuala was just approaching the meteor when she received the alert, , and she glances around until she visually spots the emerald approach, and she arches a brow. Last time she was near one, there seemed to be some sort of interaction with the green energy that she didn't fully understand. Just outside the station window she floats, unaware of any cookies being made within.

Green Lantern (Jordan) has posed:
    Moving closer, Green Lantern sees who it is, and stops a bit short. "Honor Guard Green Lantern. Power at 125 percent." Hal smiles, loving when Blues are present. "Why hello there. Nualla wasn't it? What brings you to near Earth orbit?" Hal hovers there. "It is good to see you again."

    "Hey...I just had a thought...interested in taking a tour? I know it will help you get acclimated to everything quicker..." Hal meant, of course her ring and her new place on Earth. "I know someone there who would help us out...sec."

    Hal concentrates on his ring and says, "This is Green Lantern calling the station. I have a guest I'd like to bring aboard to visit. Is Ms. Mackenna present, perhaps to meet us in the cargo bay? If she is available, it would be great if she could show us around. The non-sensitive parts of course." Hal looks at Nualla and smiles. "I'm sure it will be okay."

Kinsey MacKenna has posed:
"This is MacKenzie Station, Green Lantern. Welcome to the sector. Dr. MacKenna is on board and on duty, I can have her summoned here in less than five. Is there anything we should be aware of? Over." The voice on the other end comes across with the slightly static and metallic notes that often accompany subspace communications.

Meanwhile, on station..

"Dr. MacKenna? We have a visitor in hangar bay one. Green Lantern. He is accompanied by a female and is requesting your presense and a tour."

"I'll be there in a jiffy," is the response, smiling to herself as she imagines he's totally unaare that it's an actual measurement of time. However that does put a small kink in the cookie making process. It also saves her from paperwork, so perhaps it's a stalemate. And, as Hal and his guest have been assured, it's not much longer than the five minutes he was quoted before Kinsey shows up at the hangar bay and is directed towards her guests.

"Sister MacKenna," Kibou informs. "There is another Blue Lantern in the vicinity. I am unfamiliar with this one. Should I send inquiries?"

"Kinsey," she corrects her ring. "And no, it will be okay. I believe I'm about to be introduced, Kibou. All is well."

"Yes Sister Kinsey" is the cheerful reply.

Kinsey chuckles. She'll work on the 'Sister' business another day. For now, she goes to greet her guests.

Nuala Duvall has posed:
    "Oh, you're Hal Jordan," Nuala comments. "Nuala Duvall," she says, "We met during the Oomycetan crisis." Most other people just call them the killer mushrooms, but not Nuala. "Yes, it's a lot to get used to. Sister Reinhardt had started to show me, but she was called away," she comments. "Wait, how can I hear you in space?" she asks, a little befuddled. These rings and their bizarre powers.

Green Lantern (Jordan) has posed:
    "Nice to truly meet you Nuala Duvall. I remember that crisis...hm. Haven't seen her in some time as well." Referring to Reinhardt. Chuckling, "You can hear me because of the gifts of our rings. "Hal holds his up, which glows with a faint green glow. "Your blue ring also gives my green ring a boost...we complete each other." That was an awful quote.

     Nodding while waving towards the hanger bay, Hal Jordan escorts Nualla towards MacKenzie Station. "You might be interested to meet the person I am going to introduce you to here, Nualla." Almost on cue, his ring informs him that his ring was at 150 percent power.

    "It is good to have you around Earth, Nualla. Blues and Greens get along so well, and compliment each other. I wish I had ten of you battling this "War of the Light" situation right now. A story for another time though. For now...introductions." Hal waits for Kinsey to arrive.
"Ms. Mackenna." Hal says as Kinsey arrives. "I'd like you to meet Nualla. You can trust here, I vouch for her." Looking back at Nualla, Hal smiles, and adds, "Nualla, this is Kinsey. I think you two have something in common."

Kinsey MacKenna has posed:
"Sister Kinsey!" Kibou burbles at her, as Hal introduces.

"I know, Kibou. I know." She chuckles warmly, and gives a soft, fond sigh offering her hand to Nuala to shake. "You'll have to forgive Kibou. He's a very young ring, and we're still working the kinks out. He would very much like me to know who you are."

Her soft laughter extends to Hal. "I'm guessing that's the something in common. That, or there's another around and we ware going to have to start calling the station Odym 2."

"And welcome, both of you to MacKenzie King Station. I'm happy to report explosion free for 63 days now." A wink for Hal with that one.

Green Lantern (Jordan) has posed:
    "It is exactly the something in common I was referring to. Odym 2 it is!" With a chuckle, Hal steps back, and lets the ladies meet. "Glad to hear that actually. 63 days..." Hal smiles, and lets himself hide his smile behind his ringed finger with a subtle glance at Nuala.
