Who: Beverly Crusher & Yamanaka Ino ... AND YOU!
Broadcast: Video
Action: On the Iskaulit only
When: Now!

[ The video feed turns on, and there's a blonde girl with a much taller redhead.

They're in an empty-ish room on the Iskaulit, it looks like, and Ino checks to make sure the feed is going before speaking up. ]

Hi everyone! Dr. Crusher and I had an idea, we wanted to see if you guys were interested ...

[ She'll glance over to the other woman, waiting for her to speak up ]

We're thinking of setting up a garden over here on the Iskaulit. I know I, for one, could use a more natural retreat from the confines of our ships during longer stretches of travel between planets. I'm certain we could redirect some of the current water systems for irrigation, and there's more than sufficient space here to build sunlamps and the other equipment we'd need. [She smiles.] Unfortunately, while we both have experience working with plants, I'm afraid neither of us are particularly adept engineers.

[ Ino nods along, grinning a little at the very end of Beverly's statement ]

Now, I know there's plenty of you out there who've got the know-how to help us out. Soooo, what do you say? I've already got a decent stash of seeds and stuff that we could start planting right away, given we've got the right light and water conditions. Of course, we'll also gladly accept any donations or -- y'know, help from all the budding horticulturists out there, so on and so forth.

So? Do we have any takers?

[Toph arrives only a couple minutes after Bev, holding up a hand in a semi-wave.]

Hey, You wanna drive?

[There's a hint of surprise in Beverly's voice when she answers. She would have thought Toph would have wanted to be the one to pilot.]

I can, if you'd like.

[Generally, yes, but contrary to popular belief, she does like to share now and then. She shrugs.]

Go for it. [She's already making her way to the shuttle.]

[dancingmd]

[All right then. Beverly's certainly not going to object, as she kind of likes having the opportunity to pilot. She climbs into the shuttle behind Toph and settles in at the controls, flicking the appropriate switches and tapping the navigation screen.]

I have to say, I missed doing this, at home.

[bolder]

Yeah, and I miss kicking people's butts in bending tournaments, but you don't here me whining about it. [It's her casual conversation. Promise.

As Beverly starts up the shuttle, Toph leans back and props her slightly dirty feet on to the dashboard. Because there is one for effect.]

action

[dancingmd]

[Not that Toph can see it, but that comment gets a little bit of an eyebrow raise from Beverly.]

That was your definition of whining?

[And she glances at the feet on the dashboard but decides it's not really worth the argument that will likely ensue. As long as she keeps off the controls it'll be fine.]

action

[bolder]

One of them. There are levels of whining and complaining. I can go into specifics if you really want me to.

[Trust her, Bev, you don't.]

[Dryly.]

I think I'll pass.
