[ cassian might not have been around as long as some of the others, but it doesn't mean he hadn't already memorized the layout of the ximilia. he's used to space stations, but even when he's spent excessive time on a starship, it's not like he'd considered it a living space like the ximilia has become. because... he lives here now. apparently. ]

[ he likes to tinker in the labs, which is where he'll be sitting today. while a lot about ximilia is familiar to him and he's a fast learner, there are still mystery pieces he's trying to sort out as he does indeed sort through the physical pieces. just as curious to him are the people that come in, because it's not exactly a frequented room. he wants to get a sense of who else might like to tinker, compare it to his notes about who helped with what back in the olivia situation. ]

This is not your box of mess, is it? [ he glances at whoever comes in. the answer doesn't matter to him so much as how they answer it. ]
