Comments

[shockput]

[ Upon appearing in the cargo hold Thor treads through the ship; minding his head and shoulders. He can be found in the engine room examining it, muttering to himself about the unfamiliar metal alloys used to make it, the kitchen with a line of glasses from the machine ready to try, and in the bunks, turning over the pillows with care, looking for something. ]

[theshabbiestofmen]

[All right, so: Loki has mentioned Thor once or twice over the past month or so. Little things at first, once Remus had asked more about his mother, his father-- he'd brought up a brother, older, loutish, large, blond and annoying. A bit more probing, and Loki had even dropped hints that he, Loki, had died for this brother and his girlfriend-- and Remus had been too taken aback to ask after that, and then the lesson had ended, and they'd never brought it up again. But the fact lingers in his mind, and sometimes he looks at his teacher and wonders.

Thor Odinson, and he's fairly certain this is the brother his teacher had mentioned. Perhaps he oughtn't come over, perhaps he ought to leave it alone-- but he's curious. He wants to get to know him, to learn more about Loki's world.

So he comes over to the Caprine, feeling absurdly nervous, wand tucked into his pocket, string looped around his left wrist. He finds Thor in the kitchens, a row of glasses set before him, and despite himself a little smile comes to his face. If he's experimenting with drink options, perhaps they have more in common than he'd thought.]

Er-- are you-- you're-- are you Thor, then?

[What a way to start. He really has to get better at this kind of thing.]

[shockput]

[ He looks up, and smiles politely at Remus. ]

I am. Come, join me, I do not believe all of these are repulsive.

[nextlineis]

[If there's one person in all the Fleet who will never stop complaining about the food, it's this kid. Maybe one of these days he'll meet a new crew member that isn't based in the kitchen or centered around griping about the food, but this is not that day. He's actually not here for his sake though, he's here to feed someone else. He makes a face at Thor's wide selection of goop.]

You know you don't have to eat that stuff straight, right?

[shockput]

[ He straightens, and gives Joseph a polite nod. ]

I thought it best to try.

[ After all, Earth has this weird thing called — milkshakes? They look a little like this, and they taste fine, especially the strawberry ones. ]

[moonofmylife]

[Dany finds her way to the kitchen on her wandering journey throughout the ship. She begins busying herself with making tea, grabbing a mug from the cabinet, turning it over in her hands for a moment and deciding it was suitable to hold the drink she wanted. When she spots Thor with his glasses she has to stop and ask.]

Are you going to drink from all of them?

[Because really unless he's making drinks for other people does he need so many?]

[shockput]

[ Ah, a lovely lady. Thor smiles brightly at her, and moves aside if she wants to come in. ]

I intend to. It would be a shame to miss one.

Bunks because yes hello godfrand

[shoujoreject]

[He wasn't going to check the bunks, originally, but a noise brings him to them - it's odd how things start to sound out of place the longer he's here.

Of course, he's not sure what he was expecting to see, but somehow it wasn't an Asgardian looking under pillows... for... what, exactly?]

Are you looking to see if the tooth fairy visited anyone?

[He can't help but be a little cheekily amused, sorry.]

'sup

[shockput]

No, I am seeking a warhammer. Mjolnir, it is about [ he gestures for the size ] it should have come with me.

Visiting!

[bastardmonk]

[ During his search for Hakkai, Sanzo peers into the bunks. Mostly he's interested in seeing whether his setup is better or worse than the one on the Three Twins. It's not.

He doesn't happen to find his companion, but holy shit, whoever that is is massive. Sanzo inclines a brow, arms crossed. ]

What the hell are you looking for?

[shockput]

A warhammer.

[ Perfectly neutral, though his eyebrows are raised slightly at the hostility. ]

Dany | OTA

[moonofmylife]

[Wandering about the ship had become a habit at this point and she found she was learning more and more as she explored, slowly memorizing her route to the kitchen and to her station for her duties as Communications Officer. She was wearing her standard issue clothing, forgoing her usual dress. She had managed to come across fabric but it was taking a bit of time to weave it into something she could wear. For now, this would do. Just as the Dothraki had taken time to become her people, these people were also slowly growing on her. The ship was slowly growing on her. She felt as if she was settling in at last.

Anyone looking for her can find her either wandering about or stopping in the kitchen for something to eat that wasn't entirely made of the awful protein goop.]

[electrostatics]

[ Elecman is reading in the kitchen when Dany comes in; he raises his eyes from his book for a moment.

Humans seemed to need to eat all the time. He couldn't really blame them, though; if he had to eat the goop here, it'd be kind of weird, probably. Human food has all kinds of different textures and tastes.

He gets up and rummages through the pantry, looking for something. He takes out a white box and puts it on the table, pushing it over to her before getting back to his book. ]

Here. It's not gel, anyway.

[ God forbid he show he's doing something nice for people. If she chooses to open the box, it's half-full of jerky. What kind? Who knows. ]

[moonofmylife]

[She looks up when he speaks, reaching towards the white box he's placed on the table. It was jerky. She could stand jerky. They ate horse meat when they needed to when traveling with the Khalesaar and they lived off other cooked meats from hunts. Jerky would do just fine.]

Thank you. I was hoping that there would be something besides the gel. Where did the crew get this?

[And could she get more? It would tide her over.]

[nextlineis]

[When Dany arrives on the bridge at her station, Joseph is currently occupying his. Of course, he's being a Responsible Adult as you would anticipate. Meaning, not at all. He's got his feet up on the edge of his controls (don't worry, it's on autopilot) as he leans back in his seat, flipping through a comic book he managed to score on the station. Cloudy is curled up in his lap, snoring away though thankfully she doesn't reach the volume Joseph does. He glances in Dany's direction, giving her a small, two-fingered salute before looking back at his comic book.]

[Yes, he could be reading this comic book anywhere, but he's gotta stake out this pilot's seat from now until the end of time. You don't understand.]

Qing | OTA

[shoujoreject]

[Usually, Qing can be found in the common area, absorbed in a book. Sometimes, the book is plainly fiction; other times it's clearly some kind of medical textbook.

More and more often, though, he can be found humming in his room, with a small bunch of beautifully patterned fabrics set to one side. Sometimes he's making patterns, other times cutting pieces or sewing them together. Of course, it's slow going right now - he's working strictly by hand, laying careful stitches.]

Visiting!

[bastardmonk]

[ While he's here visiting Hakkai- strictly business, by the way- Sanzo is taking the liberty of casing the place out. He just so happens to peek his head into the common area, spotting Qing at the table. ]

...What are you reading?

[nextlineis]

[As per usual, Joseph can be found territorially holding his spot on the bridge in the pilot's seat. Sometimes he's legitimately flying, particularly if people have a specific spot on the station they'd like to be dropped off at rather than having to hoof it from one end to the other, but most of the time he's just taking up the space because he's a grown-up. A lot of the time, however, he's just letting autopilot do its thing while he sits and reads comic books, or works on training Cloudy. You may also come up here if you've got complaints (or compliments/requests) about the music. Yes, there's music broadcasting over the ship. There is a wide variety at least?]

[When not occupying the seat, he might be in the bunks, most likely napping or just lounging. If he's napping beware the buzzsaw snore he's got. It's been compared to that of wrestling a baby bear before. Otherwise, he's down with the shuttles either looking them over or about to head out/returning with one of them on a job since he's gotta make money doing something other than swindling people out of credits in the casinos.]

[electrostatics]

[ Elecman can be found tinkering in the engine room, seeing if there's any improvements he can make, or simply just wandering the ship in his search for any problems he needs to address.

Though he's not chatty, he seems less prickly than he was, and he'll often exchange a few words of greeting, even. Even if it's just a standard, generic "hey", it's...something.

Occasionally, he's reading in the kitchen, studying diagrams in books he's borrowed. He seems to be determined to learn everything about building spaceships that he possibly can. ]

[halfblinded]

[ Hakkai is still fairly new to this whole fleet business, and still settling in. He can be found in the kitchen frowning and toying with the dispensers of substances which can marginally be considered food, the cargo bay preparing a shuttle for a courier run, or sitting on a bunk and reading a book he got from the station's library. ]

kitchen

[bastardmonk]

[ Leave it to Sanzo to show up to the Caprine absolutely unannounced uninvited and demanding the world. After having a look around, he peers into the kitchen and leans casually against the entryway. ]

You'd better have found a way to make dim sum with this shit.

Kitchen

[shoujoreject]

... You'll get used to those, in a way. At least once we're off this station.

[Qing is actually just coming back from work, and as a result he has like four to-go boxes full of food balanced in his arms. He's got his usual smile on his face, and is in fact in a pretty good mood - today was decent for tips.]

I try to keep something in the fridge from work, if you want something more.... normal.

[nextlineis]

You know what you're doing with that?

[Hello, Hakkai. Guess who had a hard enough time having one other pilot around? Now with two? Haha, sorry. So very, very, very sorry about this tall 6'5" child who cannot share his toys well. He looks highly skeptical of your ability to use the shuttle.]

hawke | ota.

[ofkirkwall]

[ Though a lot of her time is spent off ship, Hawke can be easily found about the ship during odd hours of the day - or night, depending. Sometimes she's parked herself in the kitchen staring somewhat mournfully at a plate of unappetizing blocks supposed to be food, other times you might find sitting crossed legged in her bunk accompanied by two little cleaning droids (named Carver and Bethany). Or if you don't catch her in either of those locations you'd might find her in the cargo bay, hands wrapped around her staff messing around to see what spells she can cast without causing everything to explode. ]

[nextlineis]

[Never fear, Hawke. Guess who brought leftovers from one of the restaurants on the station? Cloudy is currently ghosting Joseph's steps as a result, but you know. She's usually doing that anyway.]

Are you gonna eat that? [Joseph points to the offending blocks of food in question. He gestures with the box in one of his hands,] 'Cause I was just gonna give this to Cloudy, but if you want it right now, Cloudy will eat what you got.

[He loves his dog and spoils her rotten, but c'mon. She will eat anything and, to put it simply, people should eat food that looks like people food.]
