[Rick looks a little skeptical when she says grapes, because, what, is he gonna sit around sipping a nice pinot gris?

But it's an interesting proposal. Not that he was really intending on blowing up the engines anyway, but it's not like she knows that. Free supplies just for not doing what he was already not going to do?

Still, he pauses for a second or two like he's mulling it over. Really considering it, here.]

Sugar beets and you got a deal.

Okay. [ it is possible that she's never been this exasperated before in her life. but, hey: it really beats being glum as fuck, so she'll take it. ] So what were you - some kind of engineer already before you were brought here? [ she's heading toward the door, at least. jade doesn't want to drag this conversation out much longer, but she's curious. ]

[That's Rick for you: helps you forget your troubles because you're too busy being pissed at him. He has a purpose.

He looks pleased she's leaving, anyway, and just kind of turns around to look at some engine diagnostic screens.]

I'm a sci[URP]entist. [Among other things!!!]

[ oh no... goddammit.... why can't a cool, approachable scientist join the fleet?? rusty venture would totally work, right... ]

That's what I wanted to be. What concentration? [ she's just so curious :( ]

[ricksybusiness]

[Rusty is approachable as long as you don't mind sanctimonious failures, I guess...

Rick just waves his hand in a vague, circular motion over his shoulder, meaning "everything."] In whatever.
