[video] asking the important questions

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?

What, really? Thanks!

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

Do you have any canned fruit you're not using? [She's not exactly picky, but she did get this for her crew and didn't want there to be a vacuum where two other cans could have been.]

[resnipstance]

Um... maybe? I mean-- my species is carnivorous so I don't usually look. No point, you know? I'll have to check with the rest of the crew.

[kill_switch]

[Well, that's curious, why make something you generally wouldn't eat?.] So, why the apples?

[resnipstance]

It's for a friend. I wanted to do something to cheer them up.

[kill_switch]

That's nice. I wish you luck.

If you want to come over to the First Breath I can get you what I have.

[resnipstance]

Thank you.

I have some time right now. I'll be over in five.

[Ahsoka is a pilot, and the Starstruck has plenty of shuttles. It takes her no time at all to hop in one and cruise over to the First Breath's cargo bay.]

[kill_switch]

[Furiosa will be walking into the shuttle bay after the hanger doors close and it's fully pressurized. She's tall and imposing no matter how she slices it. She's currently without her prosthetic, having taking it off to do some minor repairs and upgrades since her tussle with Max and his tooth.]

I'm Furiosa, welcome to the First Breath.

[resnipstance]

Furiosa. [Ahsoka does a small polite bow in the Jedi style, one open palm covering a closed fist held together in front of her chest. Unlike Furiosa, she's small. Her horns give her an extra three inches of height, but her face still rests where a 5'4" human's would. She's slim, too, but in a wiry way. There's definitely visible muscle tone in both her arms and legs.]

Thank you. I'm Ahsoka. It's nice to meet you, officially.

[Ahsoka turns back to the shuttle and lugs a box of canned goods out of it.]

I wasn't sure what to bring, so I brought a bunch of different stuff and you can pick what you what.

[kill_switch]

[She smiles, and peers in the box. Might as well pick out what she wants now so Ahsoka doesn't have to lug it through the ship. She plucks out a couple that she feels is comparable trade.]

You weren't afraid I'd take them all?

[resnipstance]

[Ahsoka just raises an eyebrow, amused.]

Well, you could try. I think you'd find I'm a little more formidable than I look, though.

[kill_switch]

[Furiosa looks back at her with her own growing bemusement. She'd wrongly judged the Wives for being too soft to survive the Wastelands, but survive they did.]

[At least, most of them. And Angharad had proven herself just as tough.] Is that so?

[A little playful, but lacking doubt. She turns, clutching the cans with her right hand, and becons Ahsoka to follow.] Kitchen's this way.

[resnipstance]

[Ahsoka follows, grinning.]

Yeah, yeah. I know I don't look like much.

[kill_switch]

I shouldn't judge, I've been wrong before.

[resnipstance]

I feel like Master Obi-Wan probably has a saying about that, but I can't remember it right now. Probably something like, [she coughs, and her voice changes to a poor imitation of Obi-Wan Kenobi's:] "He who underestimates his opponent has already lost."

[kill_switch]

Fortunately, they were allies. [She knew what to expect from other Imperators.]

[resnipstance]

Oh-- that's probably better, then. Haha.

Thank you for this, though. I really appreciate it. Do you want me to bring you a slice of pie when I'm done?

[kill_switch]

[Furiosa looks back at Asoka with that bemused expression she seems to be wearing now nowadays.]

Sure. I'd love to give out a try.
