You're lucky. The food here is awful.

[She will never, ever get used to eating gels. And green tea isn't tea, in her opinion.]

There's no shifts. It's pretty quiet right now, but with the strange ship we found that's probably going to change.

[unbearablynaive]

What I saw did rather resemble toothpaste. [He'll have to keep an eye out for real supplies to stock up the ship with, even if he doesn't eat. It would be a nice gesture.]

Yes, about that--it seems our hosts are encouraging us to explore it. Do we have plans together, as a crew? If not, should we make them or approach it individually?

[grabthecheese]

That's about all we have. Not even an onion. [Onions are important.

And this crew consists of very independent people, so:] I'm not sure what anyone's plans are, but it might not be safe in there alone.

[unbearablynaive]

How unfortunate. [Note to self: acquire an onion at earliest opportunity.]

It may not be safe in there regardless. I am skilled in combat, however, and if you were interested in exploring I would be glad to go with you.

[grabthecheese]

I was planning to have a look. [Her curiosity is definitely getting the better of her.] We could ask the crew.

[unbearablynaive]

[From what he's seen of her so far, Wrath will probably want to go as long as she can keep up physically.]

It could be a good chance to get to know one another. I'd like that.

[grabthecheese]

Okay. I'll ask everyone.

[She likes the crew, and she does want them to learn how to work together.]

[unbearablynaive]

I appreciate it, Polly. Please let me know how it goes; in the meantime, I believe I will continue to look around the ship, if you do not mind?

[grabthecheese]

Of course not. But you've seen most of it already.

[unbearablynaive]

[The ships are a little small, aren't they? Oh well. He nods.]

Can they be modified?

[grabthecheese]

We can order upgrades, if we have enough money. The bunks used to be smaller.

[unbearablynaive]

[he tilts his head to one side curiously.]

That could be done. How does one obtain the money?

[grabthecheese]

By... being entertaining.

[Yeah, she doesn't really get it, either.]

[unbearablynaive]

[He blinks. A couple times.]

Oh, dear. That's entirely subjective even within the human race.

[grabthecheese]

I just try not to think about it.

[unbearablynaive]

I suppose that is what we must do.

[But how is he supposed to get enough money to upgrade the ship if he's not entertaining? How does he know what's entertaining to the audience? The Vision will have to think about it for a while.]
