The Way to a Blue Fish's Heart...

Who: Blue Fish crew and visitors
Broadcast: Maybe some accidental, but not overall
Action: The Blue Fish kitchen
When: All Day, Feb. 7


[It had been a rough month for a lot of the Blue Fish crew. From blenders to family members and lost friends and blocked credits, they'd been soldiering on through a lot. And while Jilly was new enough to have skirted by most of the drama, she was keenly aware of the underlying stress of her crewmates. She wants to help.

Sometimes, though, words aren't enough...and so she sets about taking advantage of her augment to the best of her ability. For the past month she's been collecting recipes from the datary and experimenting with the supplies provided by the Atroma. And, in the days leading up to the 7th, she quietly recruits Beverly for a pair of extra hands with some Station grocery shopping and behind-the-scenes planning.

It's not announced, but on such a small ship it's hard to miss that something is going on that day. Forgoing her usual trip to the Station for job hunting and people watching, Jilly gets up extra early and sets the kitchen in motion. Recipes are taped up on the cabinets, ingredients are gathered, and so begins a marathon of food.]


[Between the combined forces of Jilly and Beverly, the two "cooks" for the Blue Fish will be setting out food all day as a bit of a much needed holiday for their crew (and any visitors who stop by). Volunteer as a taste-tester, grab food on the run, help clean dishes between baking bouts, or simply sit and relax with your crew mates. Food therapy is a go.]

[ He cocks his head at him, arching a brow and then chuckles. ]

Not an old girlfriend is she?

[ No, probably not. He technically already did that once too, and once was enough. He nearly got choked to death for his efforts anyways. Not precisely graceful, and it had never sat all the way right with him besides. He had to make some low blows... ]

[The look of HORROR on his face probably says a lot about that. Sokka waves his arms, panicked. ]

Oh HELL, no! It's my friend's sister! Nooo. No way, no how.

[ The look itself is worth a small laugh, because really, what a look. But he understood, Sokka. Rules of man friendship and all. ]

So why is it awkward having her around? Unless you two don't get along for some reason?

[ He would think you'd be welcoming anyone from your home world, but he can think of a couple he could do without seeing ever again... ]

...Yeah. Let's go with that last one.

[He exhales. ]

Look, the less people on the Blue Fish who know about her the better. But yeah. She's not good news.

Not good news, got it.

[ He takes a few contemplative bites of food. ]

Anyone else I should keep an eye out for besides your friend's sister?

[ Whom he didn't have a name for, but sure, it'll be totally obvious. ]

Azula. That's her name.

[He shrugs. ]

Some guy called Theon is apparently bad news for the Starks aboard here, but I don't know much about him other than the fact he's a misogynist jerk.

Well, that's a reason to be bad news by itself. Guess it's to much to hope Atroma would choose people who nice personalities all the time. It really needs to rethink its screening process...

[ As in maybe not do this at all, but he's voiced his opinion on that already. ]

I don't think they care all that much. Whatever keeps the quote-unquote [he totally does finger-quotes, too] "audience" watching. It doesn't matter if we struggle or suffer, so long as the ratings come rolling in.

They just stir the pot enough to make sure we keep the "audience" watching as the new drama unfolds, huh? Delightful.

That's pretty much I>exactly what's going on here. Isn't it great?

Is it odd that i can honestly say this isn't the worst thing to happen to me in my life?

alwayscomeback: DNS (I got just one life)

[personal profile] alwayscomeback 2016-03-09 09:36 pm (UTC)(link)
No, because I've had worst too. I mean, no one's tried to kill me here yet? So yeah. Sucks to be trapped, but it's not the worst.

[ He laughed softly. ]

Well, at least I feel a little less crazy now.

I'm glad I could help with the feelings of mild sanity.

It's a great talent and always appreciated.
