Welcome to Gaia! ::

Finn had no idea where he was going. Really, after having been living on the island for nearly two months now, it should not have been at all possible for the moon hunter to get himself so turned around and downright lost within it's facilities halls. Sure, the lights were all out, making it a bit dark to see by in the evenings, but in the daytime it was not so bad.

Muggy though. Ugh, the heat was impossible to escape!

Stopping to shrug out of his jacket, he deftly tied it's arms in a knot around his waist, revealing a simple blue t-shirt beneath. Then, taking a deep, calming breath to quell his irritation, he began studying his surroundings a little more carefully in an attempt to regain his bearings.

Everything looked the same. This was not helping.

He wandered on ward, crossing an intersection of halls and going straight on through, determining that if he just kept going straight eventually he would find a doorway that led outside, when a voice halted him in his tracks.

Turning, he eyed the other man with open appraisal, before he gave his head a shake while letting out a long and frustrated sigh. "No. No apparently I do not. Why? You lost or something?"

Great. Maybe they could be lost together. Wouldn't that just be fantastic.

"Or something would imply that you aren't lost, but something else." He pointed out. "But whatever the case is, me too. I can't seem to find my way around this ******** place."

He listened to the other man's plight, his simple need to locate the library, and shook his head. "Normally, if I knew where I was, I could probably help you out." As for where he had been going himself, well that was the real pain in the a** and the cherry on top of the proverbial s**t cream.

"I was actually just trying to map this place out a bit better in my head. Thought I could do a bit exploring and then you know, not get myself lost anymore."

Guess that completely backfired on him.

"But hey, you happen to know a way to get out of here? Like an exit to get outside?" There was some hope in his eyes at the thought.

Finn couldn't help but agree with everything Ripley had to say about the layout of Deus, and nodded his head to show this as the other man went on and on, and even barked a laugh at the teaparty under water comment.

"Well I feel like I don't have much of an excuse since I've been living here for two months now." Two months of trying to come to terms with the fact that he had signed up for this, that he would willingly jump aboard the supernatural slaying train. He remembered doing it, now, though it had been hazy for the first few days. He remembered his reasons for saying yes.

But for a while, for the first few weeks, all he had the energy to do was hate his decision, and wonder how long it would take before they figured out he was completely unwilling to learn or cooperate, that he was slacking, and that he was spending more time in his room then out training or bettering himself. Trynt had goaded him, had told him that it was unacceptable that his partner would be so useless, so jacking lazy.

And then he had finally smartened up. And then The Tear had happened, and it had opened his eyes in many ways. He still, occasionally, felt like he had made a terrible decision, but he was trying, and a willingness to try was at least better then nothing at all.

At the mention of a map, Finn's interest was piqued, and he waited until the other man fished it out before leaning forward to have a look.

It was just...lines. No labels. No landmarks to go by that he could see. But...well, if the other man knew where they were on that map, then he would just have to trust that he could get them outside.

"Finn Conner, Moon." He replied, eyes flicking over towards Ripley from the map. "How about this; How about a little bit of exploration time? We can get your map filled in, and the both of us will hopefully be better off for it. And of course, we'll find your library in the process."

Finn's sense of direction was terrible. Absolutely terrible. Ripley should have just asked him because he probably would have freely admitted it. If he didn't have a GPS, he was completely and utterly lost. He was lucky he knew his way to the common rooms or the communal bathrooms in the dorm area and that was just one long hallway with a room at either end.

At the mention of what Moon's did, and whether or not he knew Abbi, he smiled in his oh so common manner, a baring of teeth that left his eyes dead cold. "Ah yes, I know that one. Met her on her first day out of the pod, actually, and helped her find her way around a bit after that...to the places I actually knew how to get to. She's an absolute little darling, that one." He couldn't help but for have his voice warm up just talking about her. There was no romantic feelings from the man for his fellow moon hunter, but more of an almost brotherly instinct. "And ya, I guess. Get too watch everyone else's asses and use our bodies as meatshields, as I've so eloquently heard it put." And on more then one occasion, in fact.

"Uh, I don't know man just pick one or the other. I don't care really as long as we figure out our way around this ******** place." He let out a small sigh.

"Okay, outside first, get our bearings a bit, then had back into the labyrinth."
