Who: Caesar & u
Broadcast: Fleetwide!
Action: Marsiva, kitchens & gym!
When: Ostensibly 11/15, but really whenever

[His voice sounds muted, almost bored, but anybody who actually knows him might be a little worried at the lack of underlying irritation there. There's the clank of pots and pans in the background, also muted.]

Since we're stuck here for the foreseeable future - I understand that people are coping. [As people do. For what good it does.] I don't have the proper augment, but I know how to cook if anyone wants to learn. I don't have anything else to do. [Besides watch The Princess Bride on endless repeat.]

[. . . And then, almost as an afterthought:]

I can fight, too. If anyone wants that.

[Find him in the kitchens, or the gym on request. Close CR can assume a delivery of a comfort food of their choice.]

Comments

[theshabbiestofmen]

Excellent.

[He smiles at him, terribly pleased by this small kindness.]

How long have you been here?

[mylegacy]

[Hmm. What a polite person. Caesar opens his mouth to say not that long, and then - frowns. Puzzled.]

Almost six months, now.

[He did not realize it had been that long. Damn.]

[theshabbiestofmen]

[Ah. He wrinkles his nose.]

I really ought to stop asking that question. It never leads to anything good.

In any case: I've only been here a week or so.

[mylegacy]

No, no, it's fine, I just - I was surprised. I hadn't been counting. It's better here than at home in a lot of ways.

[Which probably says a hell of a lot. He chews the inside of his cheek absently, wondering if this is the time to try an experiment. It seems a little unfair.]

I'm sorry you came in when it's like this. Normally things make a little more sense.

[theshabbiestofmen]

[He huffs a laugh.]

It's a spaceship. I don't think it would have made a lot of sense no matter what.

[He smiles, though, pleased at the comfort.]

But I appreciate it. Everyone's been quite kind to me.

[mylegacy]

Well, not a lot. But normally less . . . brain-invasive.

[He does not like calibrations. Nobody does, but him extra not. Because he has no chill.]

I'd hope so. Everyone was kind to me, too. Even though it was disorienting.
