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.]

[That's fine. But she's seen people get crazy over a pair of designer boots. It's fair to say they might get crazy over something like food. Not that she's planning on eating much of those protein cubes if she can help it. If they were anything like the ones on the Marsiva no thanks.]

Oh that's good. I am not looking forward to reliving last Christmas' boot sale. [Just blankets and pillows?] No bed?

Ai Ebihara. You?

[astrobleme]

Bed... a bed... [Shinji has spent most of the week curled up in a bed. He slowly shakes his head.] I don't know. The crew's really nice, so it shouldn't be too hard to find somewhere... [He considers just sacrificing his own bed, but it's the only material comfort he has right now.

That's a Japanese-sounding name, though. He perks up a little.]

Shinji. Shinji Ikari. Hello, Ebihara-san.

[outermirrors]

[Ai just nods. Yeah a bed. She's slept in a futon before but that doesn't mean she enjoys it. Something about it isn't quite as comfortable and a little too stiff when compared to a nice fluffy mattress.] I guess I'll just have to ask around.

[She flips her hair and crosses her arms. At least she didn't mind talking to people when she had to.]

Nice to meet you Ikari-san.

[astrobleme]

Yeah. Nice to meet you.

[Shinji rubs at one of his eyes, looking like a kid who's just woken up from a long nap. He still feels rather disconnected from the world around him...]

So, you're from Japan?

[Hopefully not the same Japan that he's from. It's kind of nice to hear about alternate universes.]

[outermirrors]

I thought my name gave it away.

[It's a joke, but she nods all the same. Yes she's from Japan.]

[astrobleme]

Mm, doesn't hurt to check. ["Kaworu Nagisa" isn't even a human being, so...] Where in Japan are you from, if you don't mind me asking?
