[action; closed to mccoy, kirk, and uhura]

[ He reaches the apartment barely out of breath. He's the picture of professionalism but anyone who knows him as well as they do will see the anxiety immediately. The Doctor'd been shouting, Jim had been coughing and Nyota -- he does not even want to consider what he might do if she's been harmed. ]

[ He knocks, the rapping hard and too loud in the empty corridor. The sharp shard in his heart is... dread. ]

[action; open]

[ The City is his to explore for the moment. He's out of uniform, dressed plainly in dark-coloured coat and pants (yes, in the heat, perks of growing up in a desert). He hasn't done anything about the ears quite yet, but a hat is with him, half-poking out of a pocket, just in case. ]

[ The meandering appears to be random, but to anyone watching closely (or long enough) a discernible pattern emerges: a simple grid layout with delays between returns to certain points. He's checking back, double checking, too. Mostly, he can be found with his tricorder, occasionally peering quizzically at it, or observing a few people at the central arrival square. (Maybe he's even observing you.) ]

[ Once he gets the hang of the network, he opts for a simple text post. No need to unnecessarily alarm anyone who is unfamiliar with aliens, and furthermore, no need to bring attention to his presence. Khan may have unexpected allies. ]

Greetings. I am a recent arrival.

What is the highest level of technology available here? Is it freely available to the populace? Where might I find parts?

Your assistance is appreciated.

I had not thought to look yet. My focus right now is discovering the confines of this world, and how it functions.

I have read that long-term residents think it akin to a zoo.

I have come to the same conclusion.

A particularly cruel zoo, that finds enjoyment in torturing and experimenting on its exhibits.

For what ulterior purpose, it is yet unknown.

[UGH why is he agreeing with you on anything. It just feels wrong :c]

[Because he's right. One can be evil and right at the same time. Life's full of cruel ironies, innit?]

I don't anticipate finding any smoking gun in the library maintained by...whatever or whomever controls this place. But an attempt must be made. Hence, my new employment.

[why are you telling him the plan are you a cartoon villain, Khan.]

Good luck.

[Feints within feints, plans within plans. Jeez Spock didn't you ever read Dune?]

Thank you. I'll be certain to share the fruits of my research with your crew.

[No, he reads Sherlock Holmes :c]

[He raises an eyebrow, but fff he'd better go before he gets ticked off and decides to punch the Augment, and then turns, walking away briskly and calmly. No fear. No emotion. Nothing.]

[Ah. Well then. Can't blame you for that.

Khan watches the Vulcan go, and raises one hand in an ironic, iconic salute at Spock's back. Live long, and prosper.]
