Tall and muscular, she screamed 'spacer' with her no-shit attitude and shaved head. "Plenty of time, luv," the doctor replied. Her accent put one in mind of a half-dozen trainwrecked together- mostly Coreward, with the crisp Ariel intonations sparring with a snarky Cockney pronunciation more reminiscent of Londinium being the primary ones. Unlike the newcomer, her own tattooes- a gryphon and a dragon- were hidden under the long sleeves of her shirt. "Don't 'ave much t' do til the centrifuge runs down. 'Cept read 'Olmes, of course." She gave the book's cover a loving pat as she went by, going to stand in front of the new woman. Placing her hands on her hips, she looked her over thoroughly. Pilot, though not unskilled at other tasks. A practiced shot, judging by the callus on her trigger finger. That tattoo though... the Pangu's seal. Gryphon raised an eyebrow, surprised that the Captain would hire on the lone survivor of a Reaver attack. Well, that was the Captain's business. Gryphon herself was about as unsuperstitious as Holmes himself had been- she certainly didn't believe that Reavers would bother coming to hunt for an escapee. "Pleasure, Nell Dodson," she said after a moment's inspection. "I'm Doctor Gryphon Lee, the one currently in charge of patching this ragtag band up after you go get yourselves battered t' bits."
	"I'm an optimist. That may be a crime to you twisted so-and-sos, but it keeps me from goin' crazy."
