[video] asking the important questions

[resnipstance]

Who: Ahsoka + you
Broadcast: fleedwide video
Action: you can find her on the starstruck if you want
When: idk now?

Hey guys! I have a bit of a weird question for you today.

Did anyone by any chance stock up on apples before we left the Starlight? Or... apple puree, maybe? Or, um. Apple-anything-not-in-a-protein-cube? It's important. I promise.

I'd be willing to trade you credits or food from the Starstruck in exchange. We have a lot of dried and frozen meat. Like. A lot.

On an unrelated-but-not-really note...

Does anyone know how to make apple pie?

--

New broadcast, 5 minutes later: ... Apparently you need flour and butter too. Do we have any of those things?

[Well that's a random request...]

Ha...did you get a craving for it?

[resnipstance]

[Ahsoka chuckles.] No, it's not for me. It's for a friend. [Sort of. Are they friends? She's not sure. But it's the easiest way of explaining it.]

Togruta are carnivores. I'm not sure my stomach would thank me.

[kill_switch]

I've got a couple cans of sliced apples, we can work out a trade.

[resnipstance]

What, really? Thanks!

That's the hardest part taken care of! What do you want in return?

[goodjob]

Do you have a pie crust? Because that's... kind of important.

[resnipstance]

Wait! Pie crusts are bought? I thought you made them!

[Everything I knew about foods I never consume is a LIE.]

[namisan]

Hmm... I've cooked mikan pies and peach pies before. Apple's probably not too far different.

[This makes her miss Steve a little. His apple pie was damn fine.]

[resnipstance]

Yeah? I mean-- it can't be too hard, right?

-- Ahsoka. [ well, this is interesting. having listened in on a few other conversations, she believes she can rightly assume for whom she might want to make this pie. ] I believe I have the perfect recipe.

[ sarah rogers's own apple pie. she and jim had made it together, once. ]

They say there's nothing more American than apple pie.

[resnipstance]

Really? Thanks! [Ahsoka sounds genuinely delighted.]

Is America the name of your planet, then?

[unbearablynaive]

The Windrose has a few dried apples we'd be willing to spare, and anyone with the cooking augment should have flour. Butter may be difficult, but powdered milk and cooking oil are not.

audio;

[resnipstance]

Wait, really? I didn't know that. About the cooking augment.

But-- ah... [she is not on Good Terms with her resident cook.]

[feathery]

Important question.

[This is not an important question.]

Do you know if you can use the same apples from a pie for apple juice. Like simultaneously. Or, uh, in a process. Like you boil them for the juice, [he thinks that's how it works; he's pretty sure that's what Jade told him] then use their wrinkled old man remains for pie. You know, to give them a proper burial.

Or are apples limited to one applicious experience only.

audio;

[resnipstance]

[Sheepishly:] I'm sorry... I really don't know.

I'd never even heard of apples before I came here.

[nostraightlines]

[ After the second broadcast Ramse is going to go looking for her, assuming that she's in the kitchen. ]

You're baking an apple pie without any of the ingredients for apple pie? Please tell me someone's got 'em for you.

[ He won't even ask for a piece, he just wants to smell it. Apple pie, man. ]

action;

[resnipstance]

Sure! It can't be that hard, right?

[People who know absolutely nothing about baking OR pie: this chick.]

VIDEO

[sandhate]

What are you doing.

VIDEO

[resnipstance]

Duh. I'm making apple pie. What does it look like?

video

[tobeajedi]

There's some fresh fruit on the Iskaulit in Dr. Crusher's garden--I don't know if any of them are apples, but they might be close enough. I don't think she'd mind sacrificing a few for a pie.

video

[resnipstance]

Really? Oh. But apples grow pretty slowly, don't they?

I'll have to ask her...

Video

[notmutantbutmiracle]

Better not let Max catch you giving away his prized frozen meat. Otherwise, we will never hear the end of his grumbling.

Video

[resnipstance]

[Ahsoka just rolls her eyes fondly.]

His frozen meat? Come on. Who do you think buys it? I'm the only person on this ship who actually needs it to survive.

Video

[takingkarabusiness]

You know, someone told me there are apples on the Iskaulit, but I haven't gone and looked yet.

[ Kara sounds very supportive of this venture, though ]

Video

[resnipstance]

I haven't noticed either-- I thought apples were a tree-crop...? I could be wrong. I don't know that much about fruit...

[theroadwarrior]

[Max will find Ahsoka wherever she is -- and quite bluntly, he will--

Put a can of apple-jellied filling on the nearest surface. ]

For the man with -- Battle fatigue.

[The wording is odd in his mouth, but more familiar than PTSD.

... Yeah he was spying on the conversation.]

[resnipstance]

You stalking all your crewmates conversations, or am I just special?

[Ahsoka just smiles wrly and shakes her head.]

... Thank you.

[Video]

[seaoflight]

I did...actually, Ahsoka. I got a small box of them, actually. How many do you need?

[She admits to being pretty fond of them, all things considered, but she can part with some.]

[Video]

[resnipstance]

A whole box?

[Ahsoka's eyes widen comically.]

Definitely not that many. But with a few extra ones, we could make two pies! And then there'd be enough to go around for everyone who contributed to have some...

[Video]

[wolvenmemory]

Think the closest thing we got is a can of apple juice.

This for some kind of special occasion?

[Video]

[resnipstance]

Oh! Dave was looking for apple juice! I should put you two in touch.

[She's only half joking.]

It's for a friend. I thought it might cheer him up. Plus, I'm kind of curious now as to what it tastes like!

[Voice]

[goldenglasses]

If you find someone who can do wonders for baked goods with the limited supplies we have here pass on my details to them. Could you?

Or if you managed to get a pie made? I'll pay you for a taste! Mmmhmm, my mouth is watering right now just thinking about it.

[Voice]

[resnipstance]

[Ahsoka chuckles over the comm.]

I'll see what I can do. At the moment it looks like it's going to be a joint effort.
