ACTION Somewhere on the Golden
WHEN July 5th

Okay, guys. Hear me out. This is going to sound like a weird suggestion, but... has anyone thought we've been almost too gloomy lately? Our mourning is all well and good. A lot of shit happened. But if you ask me, we're missing a pretty key component to the whole cycle. Where's the party? The wake. The remembrance that we're alive and we have our own lives to continue now enriched by the lives we touched while they were here.

You know. That kind of sappy stuff.

[ There's a pause, a quiet "um". ]

If anyone else agrees, I was thinking of setting something up in say—a week or so? Would anyone else be up for that?

[ No this clearly has nothing to do with the fact that her birthday is on the 11th. Mere coincidence! ]

Someone has to be the one to rip the band-aid off. [ There's an almost verbal shrug with that. ]

After a while, you kind of can't do without, either. If you don't get a chance to unwind after all the tension, even if you get back on track, it just never goes away.

Ergo, party.

[There's a hint of a smile in his voice, albeit probably a rueful one.]

Fair enough. I unfortunately haven't gotten around to figuring out a homebrew setup just yet, so I'm not going to be much help with drinks. But I can probably figure out . . . something vaguely snack-like?

Just knowing the situation, I'm sure there's booze aplenty floating around if you care to look. Snacks, on the other hand, are a fine art. If you can manage anything close to that, welcome aboard the party boat. Er. Ship.

Find me an engineer willing to rig up a dehydrator in the Vanquish here and I'm pretty sure I can get you crisps.

Well, for a given value of crisps.

Ugh, I have no idea. The only person I know vaguely like an Engineer — well, if you meet her, you'll probably think you've met her already.

Either way, that does sound pretty promising. Jerry-rigging something resembling real food? Sign me up.

[survivalistcookbook]

I'll see what I can figure out in a week.

I'm Eugene, by the way.

I'm not terrible in the kitchen myself. Need any help, just give a holler.

Misha. Nice to meet you, Eugene.
