Who: Cullen
Broadcast: Fleetwide audio
Action: SS Huntress
When: This week

[Cullen doesn't like broadcasting, hence why he very rarely does it. He has no problem speaking to groups of people, rallying troop before battle, but there's something different about this sort of communication that he really does not enjoy. Even still it makes him uncomfortable.

But this is important.]

An odd request, but I was hoping that if anyone happened to possess spare... [how does he even ask] decorative items? A resident on the Huntress is hoping to set up a sort of tea room [why is he doing this] and so I'd figured I'd ask if anyone would want to donate to the cause.

[Elize has him around her little finger, that's why.]

It'd be greatly appreciated.

Will you forgive me if I apologize?

[princessia]

[ A pause as she places her hand on her chin thoughtfully, tilting her head a bit. ]

Maybe.

[serves]

Maybe? What must I do, then?

[princessia]

Um...

[ A pause. She hasn't thought that far ahead yet... then suddenly she blurts out: ]

Pop quiz!

[serves]

[That catches him off guard, and he blinks in surprise.]

Pop quiz?

[princessia]

How- [ Quickly trying to throw together a question. Uh... ]

How many ships are currently part of the fleet?

[serves]

[Amused, Cullen quirks an eyebrow.]

Do you know the answer to that question?

[princessia]

Yes.

[ She smiles. She enjoyed pulling quizzes like this on Jude and Milla. ]

[serves]

Seventeen.

[He folds his hands on his lap.]

[princessia]

That's...

[ Dramatic pause! ]

Wrong. Eighteen counting the Marsiva.

[serves]

[He knows, but for the sake of debate...]

Tell me, why does the Marsiva count? It's rather different from our ships.

[princessia]

The Marsiva is bigger and different from our ships, but it's still a ship. So it counts.

[serves]

Ah, I suppose it does. [Cullen would ruffle her hair, but he's done enough poking today.] I lost. Does that mean I lose any chance at forgiveness as well?

[princessia]

You'll have more opportunities in the future for forgiveness. Don't worry.

[ Maybe that means more pop quizzes. She smiles some more. He's already forgiven... she's just playing around. ]

[serves]

[He opens his arms. Maybe he could go for a hug to be sure he's forgiven.]

[princessia]

[ Elize stares thoughtfully, like she's debating whether to get close to him or not... but she can't even fake that very long. She likes giving hugs! And she quickly throws herself into his arms for a hug. ]

[serves]

[Enjoy your bear hug, Elize. Cullen's grown quite fond of giving them, and he's had a lot more practice now that Elize is on the Huntress.]

Your kindness knows no bounds.
