Mel has a Security badge.

It's not the one pinned to her belt, though that's there too. This one is newer, and shiner than that one: straighter, not rusting, and catches the light as she flips it across her fingers and back again. It's Lan's.

At least Raph is back. Otherwise she'd be really annoyed at everyone leaving.

(Someone wanna tell her Stabby's back as well?)

Hurley nods. "Yeah, I had to wear the Mr. Cluck's uniform and a hairnet. That wasn't so fun. But I guess... erm, nevermind," he says. "So thief, huh? Where is home, like, exactly?"

"Haddyn, 2294," Mel replies. "After your time, I'm guessing."

"Holy crap, you're, like, a hot ninja thief chick from the future!" Hurley says.

"Yeah, I guess," Mel says, with a straight face. "I should probably work that into my speech."

"That is so totally cool," Hurley says. "That beats all the... end of the world stuff. That's... kind of scary. But ninja thief from the future? That's awesome."

Mel gives a bright grin.

"And we have flying cars."

"Dude!" Hurley says. "I knew we'd get them eventually."

"Yeah, damn sight more useful than those things that stay on the ground. Broke my fall a few times."

Hurley pauses for a second. "Don't think I'd want to ride in one, though."

"I prefer riding on top of them," Mel says.

"You don't like heights?"

"I was just in a plane crash," Hurley says.

"Jesu," says Mel. "Sucks, sorry."

"Yeah, well, what can you do?" Hurley says with a shrug. "The weird thing is, we ended up on this island, right? And me finding a magical bar in a cave is totally not the strangest thing to happen."

"Notreally the strangest thing to happen to me," Mel says. "Some of the things in the bar have been, though.

"What's with the island?"

"Oh, just... weird, stompy thing in the jungle," Hurley says.

"Weird stompy things," says Mel with a faint grimace. "Not got a good look?"

"Well, we're doing okay," Hurley says. "I mean, for people crashed on a desert island."

"Yeah," Mel says. "Well, take the time while you're here to stock up on food and get yourself grounded. Can be a sanctuary."
