[As the communicator comes to life, there's pounding on the door's surface and jiggling of a doorknob.]

Gargh! I can't get in my room! I don't want to have another night sleeping in or on luggage either.

[There's more pounding before there's a groan and she gives up, sitting down on the ground, mumbling to herself.]

I wish I still had my pick locks from when I was a thief. Could probably get in there like that time in Sea Serpent's Grotto.

[She starts to toss her communicator up and down before noticing its on.]

AH! When did you turn on?! Uh... well... I guess you already know that I'm locked out. I thought I could get in by myself but I can't and I didn't want to bother any of the crew for something so stupid.

[He shook her hand once, gently, then bent low and brought it up to his lips. He placed a chaste touch of his lips just below her knuckles. He straightened after and released her hand carefully.]

I am the cabin boy. I do a bit of everything that needs doing, including opening doors for ladies.

[Speaking of which, Siran should probably open her door. He took the keycard in his other hand and leaned over toward her door, placed his card in the lock, and watched as the little light turned green and the lock opened for her.]

There you are.

[She blinks in surprise but she can't help the blush forming on her cheeks.]

Ah, that's very interesting and thank you again.

[She quickly moves to the door before it closes on her again.]

Does that include maintance work or is that Baij's job too?

[The blush is charming really, and Siran is enough of a gentleman to not comment on it.]

It's my pleasure.

[He stepped out of her way so she could get to her door and open it.]

I'm afraid my work doesn't involve maintenance unless you include things like replacing light bulbs and tightening loose screws that hold up the hand-railing in the stairways. Tedious, trivial tasks that no one wants to do are most often assigned.

[He doesn't seem bothered by this.]

[She gave a nod.]

I see, well if you ever have some free time I wouldn't mind chatting some more. I should head back to my friend's and make sure he's not so worried about me.

[There's a small chuckle.]

[He nodded back, giving her another smile.]

As you like, jans. Is your keycard inside?

[He wouldn't leave until he knew she had a way of getting into her room once more.]

[She quickly darts inside and finds it before coming back.]

Yep! Its here, like it should be!
