[ The video starts, but it would be easy to assume at first that the young man featured in it was still asleep. He's got a grey beanie shoved over his eyes in a manner that was definitely intentional. But after a long moment, he groans and sits up, pulling the beanie up so he can see what he's doing. ]

...Ugh. Where...

[ He does notice the camera after a moment, and he freezes. It's with an entirely unhappy scowl that he turns away after a moment, looking around. ]

What the hell is this?

[ He didn't ask for this, and he definitely doesn't seem impressed to be the latest member of intergalactic reality television. ]

[ It takes him a moment while he's reading the link. He's not the fastest reader in the universe, but he can get by. ]

...What's wrong with the food?

[ Because clearly, that's a high priority to him. ]

Calling it 'food' is giving it too much credit, honestly. It's protein paste.

Re: video

[axeboyfriend]

Protein paste?

[ He wrinkles his nose in disgust. ]

That's not food, that's a nightmare.

[ Aki would love it. ]

[experiencepoints]

Yeah. You can fake it with some of the flavors they give, but most of us just stock up on real food on the planets we stop at.

[axeboyfriend]

Has anyone considered trying to grow food from those planets? There has to be a better solution than protein paste.

[ He never thought he'd miss questing for food in Aather, and yet, here he is. ]

[experiencepoints]

There's not exactly enough room on the ships for that. Gardens take space.

[Honestly, Nightingale misses having her team's patron around for many reasons.]

[axeboyfriend]

That's a good reason. Ugh.

[ Shinjiro pinches the bridge of his nose. ]

How often will we be stopping at planets, then?

[experiencepoints]

No idea. Generally there's just a couple of weeks between then.

[axeboyfriend]

So unless ships stock up really well, we're probably going to have to suffer paste at least part of the time.

[ He drags his beanie down over his eyes in irritation. ]

[experiencepoints]

Generally, yeah. My ship is okay, but... It might be less bad if you ration it. Try to combine the paste with the actual food.

[axeboyfriend]

[ Why this. ]

Well, that's one way of facing that problem.

[experiencepoints]

Or sacrifice some free space for extra storage for more food. Your call, really.

Unless you end up on the Bishop. Then you'll be fine.

[axeboyfriend]

The Bishop? Does that ship have more space?

[experiencepoints]

That's the ship I'm on.

[that isn't a fucking answer nightingale]

[axeboyfriend]

[ Shinjiro hesitates. ]

I don't actually know what that entails.
