[save_the_souls]

Who: The Blue Fish Crew & Any Visitors
Broadcast: MAYBE
Action: SS Blue Fish
When: Beginning of July

[So in the past month, Aang & Katara may or may not have become an item, Sokka finished off all of puberty in under a week, Allen remained stuck in the puberty still, Toph won strangest pilot award briefly before she had to give it up to a pony, Hawke sassed everything and finally itemized with Anders, Beverly acquired a Starfleet issued puppy, and it turned out the cook is a flipping disney princess. Quite a time for the Blue Fish crew!]

[Well, it's time to check in with them again: AKA IT'S A MINGLE EVERYONE]

[dancingmd]

Ah...

[She is about to refuse, but thinks better of it. Maybe it'll make him feel better to have something to do. She smiles.]

Thank you. You could wash those beakers over there, if you don't mind.

[as long as she is willing to practically hold his hand through anything she asks him to do. at least as far as speed goes, it would probably be quicker to do it all herself.

but he'll still try.]

Oh... sure.

What should I wash them with?

[dancingmd]

Just soap and water is fine! They didn't have anything toxic in them.

[Otherwise she would be doing it herself.]

[catamite]

Okay...

[and picking himself up, he'll scoot off the chair and head over there to do as instructed... but it is mostly going to consist of him delicately picking them up one by one to inspect them, and looking a little lost.]

--Just in the sink, or...?

[dancingmd]

[Nel... this is frustrating but also a little pitiful. She crosses over and picks up one of the beakers herself.]

Here, let me show you...
