~~[Hello everyone it's your fave weird smiling 11-year-old.]~~

I... just wanted to say — I did it, Mr. Greed! I finally got Top 10 in pinball, sir, just like you requested! [It's true, ~~thanks to Han~~ she's completely overtaken the scoreboards; hallelujah.] I, um, got all top 10 spots, too! Just in case you wanted me to have all ten... I'm sorry, my memory's a little fuzzy... I'm very sorry! But I did it. I'm glad I can finally move on to my next chore on my to-do list... I keep hearing these distant pinball machine noises in my head, b-but then I realize I'm just tired.

I didn't know games would be so hard! It was very frustrating... I almost frowned through it...

[She chucks very faintly, smiling wide.]

It's too bad that we're no longer near a planet. I-I think my crew would be very happy to have more games on board, like pinball. Or maybe better smelling clothing detergent. I like the kind that smells like flowers. I'll remember for the next place we stop by!

[AH, RIGHT. ANYWAY.]

Actually, I was... going to come on here for a request. If that's okay.

Ah. Well.

....

We need a new blender on the Huntress.

...

A-and if anyone has any spare table cloths, we could trade for those as well. There are large holes in the table currently.

...

And if anyone has something to help remove scorch marks...

[This ship is a f$%*ing mess.]

[What the hell goes on in the Huntress?]

Did someone make you play a game as a chore?

[Nel is just bopping through the broadcasts, flipping channels, and was just about to turn away from this one... until she goes on...

so, there's now a video feed popping on with a surprised-looking elf on the other side.]

...Whoa, what happened?

It was on my to-do list! It does have chores on it, I suppose.

I was very determined not to fail Mr. Greed; he offered me protection, because I work for him! I'm part of his gang.

[this ship is in good hands everything is fiiine]

... [ What Remus said, basically. ]

Who is making you do these things?

Oh, nothing much, sir.

... A-actually I'm not sure how the blender broke.

But!! Sometimes things just get a little noisy here from time to time, is all! And things break because of it. But I don't mind working around it.

A . . . gang. You're part of his gang.

[A pause.]

You know you don't need to do things in order to get protection if you feel you need it, right? There's plenty-- myself included-- who would help you entirely for free.

[ ......... ]

Enough about blenders. Enough. [ GOD ]

[OH WELL SHIT SHE DIDN'T MEAN TO GET ANYONE IN TROUBLE UMMMM.]

I'm doing them on my own! I mean — I mean, nobody threatened to hit me, or anything. I'm just doing my to-do list! This task was given to me by my captain, and I'm supposed to always listen to my captain.

[8D;;]

Everyone has been very nice, really! Please don't be upset, miss.

[She doesn't want her crew to get disappointed, okay!

Snitching is wrong. And it's very much a rule not to break.]

[She smiles. Like usual.]

I understand, but... but Miss Undyne would like a new blender, I'm sure!

And anyone who cooks, really. It's a shame to be without one.

[ Ohhhhhh boy. Isn't this a mess. Hera puts on her patient face. ]

You're very right to respect your captain. It's important to do that, but there should always be a good reason for the orders your captain gives. If your captain gives you an unreasonable order, it's okay to question it.

[She has sort of been... trying to wrap her head around that idea. you're certainly not the first to clarify protection comes free of charge. But still. Even so. She dare not go against her captain, you know! Someone in her crew! He said she was not a slave, Mr. Greed. And she is trying to believe that. But pirate crewmembers are still supposed to listen to their captains, anyway.]

It's okay. You don't have to worry about me, sir. I really don't mind working!

It would be a shame if the ship got dirty because I was slacking.

[lmao she makes this ship sound worse than it is

i'm sorry huntress, koala is so not a good witness to have on a stand]

I'm taking care of her, don't worry.

[ scout's honor.

or at least he's trying, okay. ]

She used to be a slave and has no idea how the hell freedom works. We're working on it.

You don't-- for god's sake, is he making you clean as well? You don't have to.

[ AND PEOPLE SAID RIGGING MACHINES WOULDN'T BE A LIFE SKILL ONE DAY ]

Congratulations, kid.

[ he'll say it while he plays damage control in the comments sorry for your life ]

I think you've earned yourself a break from fighting the good fight, though.

That's not gonna work.

[ please don't make this child have an anxiety attack remus han solo has already had it up to here with this fucking bullshit ship ]

Well, something has to. She's not a bloody servant just cos some idiot's convinced her she needs to earn her keep!

[ Something flashes for a moment in Hera's eyes at the word slave. Talk about hitting close to home. But she does think Han is relatively trustworthy, here. And she knows she can't look out for everyone. ]

Keep her safe. Let me know if you need any help.

I'm one of the cooks. I am speaking on behalf of the kitchen. Do you take issue with that?

Oh-- [haha, a sort of surprised, awkward laugh.] You don't need to call me that. 'Nel' is fine.

And how did you get holes in your table, though? Did somebody shoot it or something?

Do you really think we haven't tried that?

[ impatiently ]

I get it, and I'm not a fan, but we finally got her to stop scrubbing down the floors for the sixteenth time this week. She was scrubbing down until she passed out, and that was without us.

Pinball's a hell of a lot kinder than everything else she was doing herself. The girl's terrified of getting chucked out the airlock.

If he's not happy with your progress, tell me and I'll come punch him in the face.

[And break her hand l o l but whatever]

[ having worked for -- well. jabba the hutt. han is only too aware of his affinity for the twi'lek and collecting them like possessions. but if anyone would get it, it would be hera, and han flashes her a slight look of both gratitude and apology. ]

Thanks.

[It's fortunate he and Han have spoken before. It means that Remus exhales and deflates instead of arguing. It sounds as though Han does have a plan for this-- but still, his stomach twists uncomfortably.]

Because of her circumstances at home, or what this Greed has put in her head?

As much as I hate the guy...

[ and han does ]

Circumstances at home.

I rigged the pinball machine so she'd win, 'cause Greed told her that her only 'job' for the day was to play pinball, and she took that to a whole different level.
