Chocolate-flavored Dessert Cream on the House

[thespaceopera]

[The bunks are filling up, but the new faces just keep appearing!

Are you a travel-weary passenger having trouble keeping your crew roster straight? Perhaps you are a fresh new recruit, finding themselves dumped into a new (and much less shiny) home. Or, maybe you've been around for a little bit and just haven't bothered meeting the other weirdos on this ship yet--what is their problem, anyway?

Well, this is the place for you!

All new passengers from the last few Shuffles, especially those who haven't met their crews yet, are welcome to post starter-comments here to invite those living on and visiting your ship to come and interact. Newbies could be just arriving on the ship, busying around where others can find them, or you can offering multiple options for interaction--however you'd like to set up your thread is fine. Just make sure to include the name of your ship in the header, so your crewmates can easily find you!

Everyone else-- go meet those newbies! Whether they are new to your own crew, or on ships you frequently visit, now is a great time to bump into them.]

our first thread ever. babby's first thread

[ Theon doesn't find it soothing.

It's like the sea is what Theon thinks at first as well. It's dark and deep and mysterious--but the sea has an end. You'll always find land if you don't find starvation or your own watery grave first. But this seems completely endless, like they could sail for years and reach nothing, not even the pinprick stars in the distance.

It's absolutely terrifying, but he can't make himself look away, even when approached. ]

I do not require your help.

[ What a nice greeting. ]

this day will be a holiday someday

[theshabbiestofmen]

I didn't offer it.

[Mildly said, but not without some bite. He had been about to offer it, actually, but no one needs to know that. Remus watches the other man, eyebrows raised.]

Got a name, then?

write it down in the history books

Then you will refrain from doing so in the future.

[ His tone is cold and biting. After being visited by his probably-now-ex-best friend, his already bad mood has taken an extreme nosedive. He spares Remus a brief glance ]

I do. Theon Greyjoy.

[ Heir to Pyke and the Iron Islands, but he's already been laughed at for stating that once today. ]

I suppose you have one as well. [ Though he isn't really interested. ]

[theshabbiestofmen]

[Remus can be cold when he wishes. Not often, and never to his friends-- but he can be. His disinterest is nothing compared to this boy, but it hardly matters; what matters is that he isn't just lying there and taking it.]

Remus Lupin.

[A beat, and then:]

You're not going to do well if you treat everyone like this, I can tell you that much.
