all aboard the ss blamless

[pyroelectric]

Who: Crew of the SS Blameless and visitors.
Broadcast: Nope
Action: SS Blameless
When: March, or until we feel like a new one.

[It's a mingle! Get out of the car!

Unique ship notes for new crew and visitors: giant, unmissable scorch marks currently line the walls of several corridors leading from the cargo hold to the bridge!

Also, thanks to Kate, we now have a SWEARS AND ATTITUDES JAR displayed prominently in the kitchen. Whenever someone's being naughty instead of nice, they're compelled to deposit a few credits (or at least an iou) into the awaiting jar.

Also also, we are all still bunking together. HAVE FUN.]

[sara leans forward, eyes narrowing; she can see the lights too, but alien languages are not, sadly, among those she knows.]

I don't know. My job's on the other side of town. [buuuut if she had to guess:] Might be one of the casinos.

[t65]

Only one way to find out! [Luke pulls a gear, and the ship putters slightly faster toward the tower. As they get closer, it becomes clear that the tower is meant to be an azure line of water spouting out of the back of a blue whale-shaped building. Luke lowers the shuttle into where the other speeders and hoppers are landing-- its gaping mouth.] Never seen a building like this before...

[revivo]

[um.]

A whale. [um. okay, now she's seen it all.] I'm pretty sure I've seen this movie before. Didn't end too well for them.

[but that doesn't stop her from getting out as soon as they stop, watching the steady stream of people going in. no one seems to take much notice of them, save for one particularly tall alien that glances at her, double-takes, and then hurries off.]

[t65]

A whale? [He looks up with curiosity, either not seeing or ignoring Sara's little staring contest with the alien.] Are they native to your planet?

[It's pleasant conversation as he walks toward the crowd mulling at the entrance.]

[revivo]

Not just mine if they know about 'em here, [remarked, as they get closer to the entrance.] They live in oceans. You know, like the one you saw.

[""saw."" she manages to convey air quotes without actually gesturing. there's a sign near the gaping mouth, lit up like the spout of water overhead, and pamphlets stacked on a table. she picks one of those up, opening the glossy folded paper and canting her head.]

Well. It's not a casino.

[t65]

Your oceans must be huge... [Maybe as big as deserts.] It seems like some kind of... amusement. For adults only. [He points to an age requirement in shining yellow letters.] I'm sure you can handle it.

[revivo]

[she.

turns to look at him.]

Do I look like I can't handle it?
