Who: emblica
Broadcast: fleet-wide; voice
Action: it can be for the sake of threads
When: right...now. idk. sometime when the pathstone is at a waystation.

If anyone is interested in having food for their ships, I've been growing some of the vegetables that were provided at the stations. Unfortunately, I now have too many on hand, and they're becoming difficult to store. I'd appreciate if others would be willing to take some for their own ships.

[ A pause, then: ]

That is all.

You were successful, then!

voice;

[amarant]

Not through normal means. I suppose I lost track of time while I grew them, and there really are too many.

The captains will notice soon if I don't get rid of some.

[aberrant_type]

I'll gladly take a few. I do wonder what the situation is like on the other ships, those that aren't part of our fleet. Perhaps you could barter your fresh vegetables for other things?

[amarant]

I'd rather not deal with them.

[ Woah, that's mean. ]

[aberrant_type]

... Would you want backup?

[Crowley is not leaving his bed, not for anything.]

Is that what you've been doing in the medbay all this time?

[amarant]

If you think that would help...

[aberrant_type]

My interest is in you being comfortable.

[ It takes her a second to realize why the voice is not coming from...you know, near her. ]

Yes, I must have lost track of the time.

[amarant]

...maybe another time, then. The crews are fine for now.

[aberrant_type]

Speaking of comfort, how are you feeling?

[amarant]

I'm fine. Why?

[aberrant_type]

Well... I'm feeling under the weather myself, and your crewmate recently vomited all over the floor...

[amarant]

[ --oh, like that. ]

No, I haven't been ill.

[aberrant_type]

Interesting! Let me know if anything comes up, will you?

[amarant]

Of course.

Is there anything you need help with in the meantime?

[aberrant_type]

I don't think so. When is a good time to come and collect those plants?

[amarant]

I've got free time now, or until we leave.

[aberrant_type]

Then I'll come on over.

[SHORT TIMESKIP TO ACTION???]

[amarant]

[ That works! In the hall area: ]

...it's a bit of a mess in my room, so I brought most of them out here.

[ There are a lot. All various kinds, and certainly too many for just one ship. ]

[He sounds tired, and stuffed up. But really, this is great timing after he just got through a discussion with his crewmate who wants to keep RATS as a back up food supply.]

I'll be happy to take some off your hands.

voice;

[amarant]

Please, take as many as you want. Good food is hard to come by here. I'm not sure if this counts, but it's better than what we've had.

voice;

[save_the_souls]

Thank you, Emblica. I'm sure they'll be a nice treat.

Is there anything I should know about taking care of them?

voice;

[amarant]

They hold up quite nicely-- the ones I've had longest still seem to be fine. No special care is needed.

[aberrant_type]

[She looks around and... laughs a bit, in a friendly way.] I'm impressed, Emblica!
