Chocolate-flavored Dessert Cream on the House

[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.]

It was a grab.

[Because hugs are a grab genre, obviously. You don't grab. Bottom line. If someone tried to hug someone in the wasteland without knowing them, they'd probably get stabbed in the eye socket. Max thinks he didn't do too badly here. Well. Okay, mildly badly. By fleet standards. He gives the man a entirely unfriendly look before he hobbles back toward the front console, working to shut off accidental buttons pressed and correct the system. And he's sure to make a very wide arc around the stranger, still ready to throw punches again. Just in case.

What's his name, he asks?

Rather dryly:]


Neanderthal.

And a kiss is, what, a bite? The first step toward cannibalism. Wow. You must have sex like...never. That's actually kind of in line with Tuck, though so. Hey, common thread. [He keeps a keen eye on Max as he moves, but doesn't make any effort to do the same. Not that he can't take a hit, but he'd rather not. And if he's really going to pull off this whole cruise-ship captain thing, he probably doesn't need to be thoroughly tossing down with some guy on deck.

He gets when the dude is doing, somehow, instinctively, knows he could do the same, but why the hell bother?]


Okay. So, Not-Tuck. We're going with Not-Tuck.

[He hasn't kissed someone in... forever, man. The last person he kissed was his wife — and he plans to make that the last, as far as he's concerned. Sex pretty much is the same idea. Funny how a miserable backstory kills all of your libido. He just gives FDR a half-lidded 'shut up' sort of glance before he gets back to correcting their blunders.

Then he wipes some of FDR's blood off the edge of the console with his thumb, then wipes his thumb off on his pants. There. Now Peggy won't completely kill him if she knows they've been fighting in here.]


Don't care what you call me.

Just stay out of my way.

[Look, you've made him even more of a sourpuss than he usually is.

Are you satisfied, sir.]

[One disadvantage Max is going to have with FDR is that he knows that face like his own, so all of those little scowls and glares? He's got a natural immunity to them. And if anything that 'shut up' glance only makes him grin slightly, because he can read that as a total 'yes, might as well check out a new virgin-card it's been so long'.]

Good. [Because it's been so dubbed.]

And just exactly where are you going? [Seriously? Who says 'stay out of my way' except the asshole protagonists in some action flick?]

This way.

[He nods in the direction, serious as sin, and starts to leave.


..........


No really he's just leaving.]
