"I keep thinking I've seen it all here and then somehow, some way, they keep doing this to me."

At first she'd admit most of it was shocking but at the rate NJ was running at she managed to turn that shock into excitement. Normal people showing up in eclipses was one thing but the person she saw was something else for one particular reason.

"You're an owl! That's so cool!"

"You bet ya'!"

Even if the majority of the members were from different nations. But it probably wasn't that important, not to someone who didn't even know what all of that meant in the first place...

"No can do partner. You might be an owl but that doesn't mean I can just spout all the secrets right to ya'. If the Commander was here maybe I could get permission but otherwise my lips are staying sealed shut."

Azure Lane?

"I haven't heard of that before. American?"

She is named after New Jersey.

"What sort of secrets are these? You can tell me."

Let's see how serious of an agent she is. Engle leans in, as though expecting to hear a secret.

[indomitableblackdragon]

"Ooh is it?" The uniform didn't look too radically different from what she was used to but sometimes the best of the best usually were hidden behind simplicity in the first place.

"I'm part of the Azur Lane. They got tech all up in the wazoo so honestly anything anyone makes they can probably replicate it. When they aren't trying to uncover more secrets of course..."

Engle leans in to get a closer look at the device. It must have some sort of purpose, given the horseshoe of lights... but for the life of her, Engle can't figure it out. She leans back and rubs some feathers on her chin.

"Hm. Custom job? My uniform is the same," she says. She pats one of her bulky shoulder pads. "Who made it for you?" She's eager to learn more.

[indomitableblackdragon]

"Device?" She had to look up for a brief moment to see what they meant. "Oh that! It's kinda a headband I guess? I wouldn't call it a device."

Even if it did function practically like one But she really hadn't seen it being used too much since arriving here in the first place. Outside of the first few days adjusting to everything new.

"I'd say you can have it but I don't know if it'd fit on your head. Kinda was made for me to wear and nobody else..."

"Alright." Engle decides to drop the topic. "I speak owl to other owls, yes."

"Why is there a device on your head?" She points to the machine in question.

[indomitableblackdragon]

"Yeah I mean that's who I am. Why else would I get named anything else beyond that?" Granted she didn't choose the name herself but realistically you don't get much of a choice when your named after pre-existing things to begin with.

"Oh well thank god. I speak that too. Not owl though I wouldn't be able to tell a single thing about. Do you just talk in owl sometimes so people don't understand what you're saying?"

Engle tilts her head. "Did you give yourself that name?"

She can't imagine a wold where people are named after states. Unless it's, say, Virginia.

"I speak English. And owl. And... other languages."

Getting into the details isn't something Engle does very much.

[indomitableblackdragon]

"You damn right it is! My name too!" NJ said acting as if it was normal to be called a state in the first place. Or named after a ship that was named after the state in the first place. Real normal stuff people could completely comprehend.

"Wait is there a difference between the two? Not trying to say like "All birds are the same" and all that but is that a whole thing that you all speak different languages?"

"... That's the name of a state." Strange thing to call herself, in Engle's opinion. Not to mention the indomitable black dragon part, which seemed strangely familiar, though she couldn't put her finger on it.

"I don't speak eagle. Only owl." Engle crosses her arms and looks suitably tough. She hopes she doesn't ask her to demonstrate, but she's not crossing her fingers, either.

[indomitableblackdragon]

"You can just call me New Jersey! The Indomitable Black Dragon herself but don't wear it out. Or do, I love hearing people saying it out loud.~~" Maybe she was a little too absorbed in the introduction part.

"I'm just surprised that's all. One of my friends has an eagle but they aren't like ya' know, walking and talking. Unless you count the "Scraw!" as words."

"I am." Engle remarks in a tone as though she's realizing it for the first time herself.

"And you are?" A woman with a piece of metal stuck to her forehead, apparently.
