[Shinji isn't the most surreptitious when it comes to spying on someone. It's just, you know, when that someone seems to be deconstructing the ship with their mind, he's hesitant about approaching them right away. But he finally decides to speak up when he observes Erik messing with a grate out in the hallway.]

I don't think you're supposed to take apart the ship.

[Some distance away, Shinji is hugging the wall so closely that he might as well be clinging to it. Small, young, and wary-looking, he wonders if this is a new crew member or one of those hostiles that Vima mentioned. Maybe they're being invaded...?!]

[personal profile] astrobleme 2016-03-15 04:29 am (UTC)(link)
[More reassuring, yes. But still incredibly suspicious. But now that Shinji is really thinking about it, he realizes this guy is kind of familiar. Maybe he saw Erik on the network or something. He's often reading new posts in an effort to find patterns in the Fleet's membership.]

As long as you put it back together, I guess it's okay. I just... don't want things to explode all of a sudden. That would be bad.

i [backdated to SHUFFLE]

[When Pyrrha arrives, she mostly just looks startled for a short time, because while she had known that this was coming... well, she didn't expect it. Who expects this? How does one prepare?? But after taking some time to put the complimentary food down in the kitchen, she sets out to explore the ship.]

Hello!? I think I'm new to your ship, if there is anyone here at the moment!

ii

[Once she's had a bit to settle down, though, she's making use of her augment well. She's in the kitchen, whipping up something that is probably actually pretty good even with the odd materials to work with!

Thank god for being a cook.]


Ren would be proud... I think. [She says to herself, before calling out and hoping people will hear her, or smell the food itself (which smells A+):] If you're hungry, I've prepared something!

[More new arrivals. It's a bittersweet thing to see replacements for people--and it's stressful, too. Shinji isn't at ease around a stranger, so he spends a while kind of spying on Pyrrha, trying to divine if she's a good person or not. The smell of food is too delicious to resist, though.]

Something?

[He's soft-spoken and indecisive, lurking in the kitchen's doorway.]

It smells good...
achillesheels: (pic#10032227)

[personal profile] achillesheels 2016-03-15 05:59 am (UTC)(link)
Something simple. I tried to make something as close to a curry as I could, since we have the curry flavoring... but I'm not sure how well I managed. It's a bit odd compared to what I've done before, but I think I managed.

[Her voice is warm, and she seems fairly cheerful—though she seems a bit distracted too, mostly by kitchen things because she wants to make everything as good as she can.]

Would you like some? There's enough for everyone.
astrobleme: (alioth)

[personal profile] astrobleme 2016-03-16 09:56 am (UTC)(link)
[Oh snap. Someone else who knows what curry is. Shinji had to explain curry to a different member of the crew not that long ago. It's one of his favorite foods of all time. Still, he's hesitant when stepping into the kitchen and approaching the counter.]

If you made a decent curry out of this slop, you're a miracle worker. I'm serious. My last attempt didn't go so well...

[He retrieves some bowls for everyone to make use of.]

I'd like to give it a try. Thank you very much.

Doing all right, as much as you can when you're kidnapped to another galaxy by an alien superbeing. [Vima gets up and returns the bow--Pyrrha might not be a Jedi, but it's a gesture familiar to her anyway.] So, what did Atroma decide your job on our little ship is gonna be?

I. (Backdated to first of the month.)

[Nomi really hadn't spent a lot of time outside of the quarters she'd taken to sharing with Vima, preferring mostly to keep to herself for a time while she adjusted. Life in space was not unfamiliar, but the environment here was not the same as at home and it took her time to adjust.

Today, though, she's finally really stepping out and attempting to stop being that one person who doesn't talk to anybody. Starting with an exploration of the ship. She'll wander from area to area, basically waving at anyone who happens to be around and offering a warm, matronly smile.]


Hello there. Forgive me, I don't think we've met. I'm Nomi.

II. (The Galley)

[Nomi is no cook. Not even close to it, but thankfully for you she's not cooking for anyone else. Good thing too, since she's just poking at the food dispensing machine and blinking.]

Pumpkin-spice? What is that even supposed to mean?


III. (The Wild Card option).

[Tag however you like! If you have an idea and aren't sure, PM me or poke me on Plurk @AxiomaticGrue]
tobeajedi: Meditating with eyes closed and levitating crystals (No look she can actually sit still)

II. Calibration Chat

[personal profile] tobeajedi 2016-03-15 02:14 am (UTC)(link)
[Vima is nervous about this meeting--one that's been in the pipeline since her mother appeared on the Marsiva. That is to say, the "calibration rooms" that they were subjected to months ago. During which a) she barged into a memory of Dr. Crusher's and b) Dr. Crusher saw Vima's decision to go to Ulic Qel-Droma the ex-Jedi for training.

The latter of which Vima has not brought up yet. She's kind of waiting to see if Nomi has questions herself, but also... she's worried about potential timeline implications. Which is another good reason to have Dr. Crusher around, because apparently she knows about timeline nonsense.

In the meantime, she'll start making tea and glances over when her mom questions the flavors on offering.]


Uh... I think it's an Earth thing? I was kind of confused to see spice everywhere at first, but it's not like mined spice.
dancingmd: (why aren't we all being interrogated?)

finally gets my ass in gear

[personal profile] dancingmd 2016-03-16 02:04 pm (UTC)(link)
[Beverly comes in a few minutes later. Unlike Vima, she is completely at ease - no calibration talk will compare to what she went through with Tek. No one here is a deeply paranoid death dragon. Even if things don't exactly go swimmingly, she's confident they can work through any issues that come up in a sensible manner.]

Good morning! [Beaming at the both of them, she spies the pumpkin spice drink dispenser Nomi is poking at.] Oh, I didn't know some ships had that flavor!
seaoflight: (Casual/Hello?)

And ofc dw doesn't give me a notification

[personal profile] seaoflight 2016-03-17 02:33 pm (UTC)(link)
[For her part, Nomi wasn't all that worried about the conversation but Vima's unease was troubling. What had happened, to make her obviously rambunctious child so unsure of all this?

The focus on the drink was just a distraction though, and with the assurance that it was not in fact a dangerously addictive hallucinogen Nomi pressed the button with some finality. Worth a try.]


Apparently so. I'll give it a try. Can't hurt, I suppose.

[She'll sip it. Frown. Take another sip. And then shrug.]

Different. Are you a fan, Doctor?

[The resident cook of the Heron has now arrived to help.]

It's a flavor... pumpkin, nutmeg, things like that.
seaoflight: (Cheerful/Dark)

[personal profile] seaoflight 2016-03-15 04:23 am (UTC)(link)
Where does the spice come in? That's not something that should be consumed at all, let alone be used as common flavoring.

[That word has a vastly different definition at home...]
achillesheels: (pic#10032196)

[personal profile] achillesheels 2016-03-15 05:53 am (UTC)(link)
The spice is the nutmeg, cinnamon, ginger, cloves... all of that sort of thing are common flavorings. Why shouldn't it be consumed?

[What do you mean, none of this stuff is bad!! She's just confused, now, but is chalking it up to misunderstandings of... some kind.]

It's a flavor on Earth. Kinda like cinnamon and nutmeg?

[Stefan hadn't been here long - honestly, he's here to visit Vima, but even he can't ignore the physical differences between his pseudo sister and the woman near him.]

Can't say I recommend it, unless you like that kind of thing.
seaoflight: (Neutral/Little Smile)

[personal profile] seaoflight 2016-03-17 04:18 am (UTC)(link)
Ah. Alright.

[Which is easier than worrying about the implications of spice in food, since that was an addictive hallucinogen.]

I'm not entirely sure what those flavors are, but it can't be awful.

[So, getting some and adding it to her drink.]

Thank you, sir.
