The Cogwork Dragon is a relativly small airship, in comparison to others it's frame is sleek and may perform manourvers in the sky not many other ships can do.

User Image

A flag with the design of cogs in the center of a curled dragon is attached to the back of the ship.
The ladder joins the 2 halves the two halves.

Upon entering below you walk into the living area, small kitchen set up in the far left corner and comfortable worn leather couches around a table which takes up the first half of the ship.
A thin wooden wall divides the bathroom/bedroom area a curtain acting as a door, in the middle right of the structure.

Beyond is a comfortable double bed the sheet generally tossed and twisted and left like that most of the day. across from the bedroom is the bathroom area, seperated by another wall and curtain.
One important thing you should take into account is that everywhere you turn there are books, pieces of paper with scraps of writing, sketches and various other notes.

The owner of this cluttered ship on the other hand is Erimentha, who is tall with flaming shoulder length red hair, intelligent brown eyes and a warming smile.
She knows how to handle her ship and has a strong will but when it comes to meeting people she's a bit of a cluts.
She's generally seen wearing sturdy boots, leggings (with the occasional skirt) shirt and embroided vest, scarf and protective goggles, and sometimes a bowler hat.

Erimentha sat in one of the single leather couches legs crossed underneather her a book in one hand and a cup of tea in the other.
Putting down the tea she bend over the book, her brow furrowed in concentration and she glanced over to a sketch laying next to her then back at the book.
Picking her tea back up and taking a sip she leant back and put the book down running her free hand down her face.
"Gods this never gets any easier."

She bagan pacing the room, stepping over books, leaflets and sheets of paper, finally unable to decided on what to do she climbed out of the living quarters and up into the deck.
Steering the ship towards the floating city and docked it in one of the smaller areas, before sliding back down the ladder picking up a couple books from various areas of the cabin and stuffing them in a traveling bag and left the ship.

After her visit to the teahouse she came back to her ship with the Professor in tow if he decided to follow her and trotted up the plank onto the main deck of her ship, before she would even put her things away Erimentha climbed up the ladder into the engine room and strapped on a tool belt and slid back down the ladder until she reached the living quarters, put her books on a spare couch and went pulled herself back onto the main deck scanning it for any damage while waiting.

The Professor had followed her walking onto her ship "Hmmm I know you will think less of me but it seems alittle primitive compared to my ship but it has a very interesting design, so could I see the book now?" He asked.

"Well of course it's primitive compared to your ship if you can travel through time and space." She huffed and slid down the ladder.
"This way to see the book." Her voice could be heard from below deck, the way she held herself was completely different from in the tea house, her back was straighter and her voice calmer and firmer.
"There are some things I need to do while you write, but make yourself at home, there's a stove to brew tea in the corner."

The Professor nodded "Thank you my dear I think I will just get to the book right now but thank you for the offer, this ship is pretty amazing though for its design and time." He smiled to her.

((Could you please put in a bit more effort with your posts a few more sentances would be good.))

Erimentha was in her bedroom area her day clothes tossed on the bed and she was pulling out her work ones that she wore around the ship when doing maintanence.
"Thank you." She called out and smiled to herself, tying up her hair after pulling on pair of worn trousers and loose shirt which had a few oil stains on them, her tool bely around her waist, keys jangling from a hook which was also attached.
She would come out again into the main living area and climb back up the ladder.
"Writing only, no duplecating." She warned again.

The Professor nodded and took off his cape looking around the place, it was a lovely place. it had many different portraits of her and her life. Many different places she has been or such. He looked around for a pen and paper, it was good he found one over on a desk she had with a book with blank pages,perfect for his copy. He took the book she had and he put it down beside him on the desk as he sat down at the desk taking the pen and beginning to write exactly what it had but in alittle more organized fashion in his opinion. He asked "Tell me about yourself, how did you come by this ship?"

Erimentha by that time was under the engine fiddling with its tuning it, re-wiring and making sure it ran smoothly.
She wiped the sweat from her brow with the palm of her hand and in turn wiped an amount of grease onto her face.
"I bought it. I wanted to fly an air ship since I was little. So I saved , my dad taught me and so when I was old enough and had saved the money I bought this beautiful ship and left home." She called out sliding out from under the engine and then climbed up into the cabin, turned a key flicked a couple switched and listened carfully for faults.
Happy the ship sounded fine she slid back down below deck and lingered over the Professors shoulder for a bit content he wasnt cheating and then sat down opposite.

The Professor turned to her for a moment looking her over and her greasy self. He pondered for a moment before saying "Did you know that in all my time here that you haven't asked more about my life, my race and my ship." He remembered that many would like to see his machine if they had the chance, they would want to go with him or ask him who hes met and where he has been. This woman was very interesting to him in this fact. He then goes back to his copying making exact notes like he is physically making an exact copy of the journal and he did it in pen, not making one single mistake.

She shrugged and wiped the grease off her face using her sleeve.
"Well I guess I kinda learnt about your race from that journal the sketches gave me enough information though seeing it for myself is tempting I don't like to leave my ship for long. But your life will obviously be completely different from the other one who wrote that journal."
She learnt forward and watched him write before picking up a map and tracing her finger around the lines of a continent.
"So do tell me about yourself."

The Professor looked to her for a moment before standing up and walking over to the nearest cushion chair before taking off his coat and he sat down with his cane helping himself into the chair before resting the cane against the chair. he looked to her for a moment before saying to her "Well my race watched the universe and did nothing but watched, I wanted to see the universe, experience it all and I had a girlfriend, a love like no other. We explored the universe for centuries and had fun but eventually she started to lose interest in the fun and the science inventions we did. She just focused on the science and less on the ethics of it...." he sighed looking away for a moment.

She nodded and decided she wanted something to drink, so pushing herself up she walked over to the small stove and set the kettle to brew some tea.
"I'm sorry to hear that, life is life I guess." She smiled meekly and pulled out two mugs.
"Tea?"
