"Heh, don't we know it!" Aito laughs, now grinning and seeming a lot more chipper than before. "Well, I suppose now that we're members of your crew, introductions around the board are necessary. Like I said before, I'm Aito, you can consider me to be your head of engineering - I've got the most experience of us by a longshot."
"My name is Yuzu, it's my pleasure to make your aquaintance. My specialty is in phasic studies." The woman gives a slight bow.
"The pleasure is all mine." Ramza says with a sleazy smile, before he realizes he probably shouldn't do that in front of her grandfather. "Uh, if you don't mind me asking, what are phasic studies?"
"To simplify it, my job is to understand how to best manipulate the states of matter and mana. Think of it like how water can be a gas, a liquid, and a solid - I work with those kinds of things, using my knowledge to ensure we have the best substances and the best arrangements of those substances for things to work optimally." She explains. Suddenly you're a lot more interested in this conversation.
"So some things work better in a different state than you'd usually find them in? And your goal is to find the exact state that works best and force it into that within a construct for efficiency's sake." You clarify.
"Yes, exactly!" She nods her head rapidly. "You could make a good engineer someday, mister..."
"Lasombra. Val Lasombra." You slightly tip your mage's hat at her. "And thanks. I plan on investing time into such studies someday."
"Jun." Aito reaches over and taps the younger boy on the shoulder, before nodding his head towards your group.
"Right! I'm Jun. I don't have a ton of experience yet, but I'm really good with repairs! I can't make new things very well, but once I take something apart, I always know how to put it back together better than before." The young boy boasts, jabbing a thumb towards his chest and sticking his nose into the air as he brags. "Yup, I'm a certified pro-di-gy!"
"And since the three of you are already familiar with Val and Captain Valentine, that just leaves my introduction. The best for last! I am the GREAT-" Gigas stands up, striking a pose as he tenses every muscle in his body. "THE MIGHTY-" He shifts to a different pose, his flexing muscles threatening to tear his shirt. "GIGAS!" He takes one final pose that looks terribly uncomfortable, holding it for a few awkwardly silent moments before he lets the tension go from his body.
"That's, uh...that's something." Aito mumbles under his breath. You and Ramza can't help but agree. "Well, we're glad you all saved our bacon. We'll make it up to you no matter what, that's a promise!"
"Glad to hear it, Head Engineer. And welcome to the Trinity Pirates." Ramza says with a grin, walking up and extending a hand to the older man. He takes it, and the two shake on it.
