[mylegacy]

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.]

[... aw, caesar. She was going to just put it in her inventory for later, but she remembered how things vanish every night, so now she's eating it so it doesn't vanish.]

You can fight, too?

action;

[ino]

[ The terrible thing about having a ninja for a friend is that once she's comfortable with you, she will do this thing where she just appears where you are. In this case, behind him, leaning on a counter ]

I could go for a spar.

[ She'll kick you in the ass again ]

[truthvalue]

[Souji doesn't expect to see anyone else in the kitchen when he makes his way in, but - it's not a bad thing. He waits until it looks like Caesar's done making his broadcast before he makes himself known.]

Hello, Caesar. Anything I can help with?

[mylegacy]

Mamma mia!

[Could you, instead, NOT do that. God. He just jumped about a million feet.]

Well, you'll have to wait for my heart to start up again.

[ino]

[ She covers her mouth, hoping it will mask the fact that she's laughing silently at him. ... It doesn't work that well. ]

[mylegacy]

Of course I can fight.

[HE IS SO OFFENDED?? OMG]

[mylegacy]

Shut up.

[sulks loudly]

[experiencepoints]

I didn't know that. You'll have to show me sometime.

[mylegacy]

Oh, so you're busy now?

[ino]

That's right ... Jojo did say you can't sense someone's presence with the Hamon.

[experiencepoints]

Yeah, I'm eating. I got this mysterious stew from somewhere.

[mylegacy]

[Oh. Hello, you. Caesar offers a weak but polite smile.]

Not really. I'm just keeping myself busy, for the most part.

[mylegacy]

He has a big mouth.

[Telling tactical secrets to girls who indiscriminately kick people in the butt.]

[mylegacy]

That is very mysterious. I never got a stew delivery.

[nextlineis]

[Okay, well, he could respond over the network, or he could just track Caesar down. Imagine which route he takes. Go on.]

You're spending way too much time in here, you know.

[experiencepoints]

I wonder where it came from?

[ino]

If he hadn't said so, I would have been able to guess just now.

[mylegacy]

[He doesn't even bother turning to see who it is, just rolls his eyes and beckons him closer.]

Come here. Open up.

[Here, try this casserole, you shithead.]

[mylegacy]

There's a difference between giving a secret away and earning it, you know.

[mylegacy]

Someone either very generous or very bored. Maybe both.

[ino]

[ She pushes herself off the counter, taking a few steps around to stand in front of him, now. She's also looking pretty amused, still. But she'll be nice. ]

I could teach you, if you wanted.

[mylegacy]

Please teach me.

[He gives her a look that's honestly pretty desperate.]

It's so boring here, Ino.

[theshabbiestofmen]

I'd like to learn-- the cooking, I mean. I'm afraid all I can do is scrambled eggs and bacon. Are you free now, or shall I wait a bit?

[ino]

[ She grins again, trying not to laugh -- but she'll hold out a hand for him to take ]

[mylegacy]

I'm free now.

[With the heavy weariness of someone who is always free on the Marsiva, and also of someone who is twenty but thinks he's about eighty-five.]
