[Wrath's getting herself a cup of something caffeinated. She grins when she spots Kitty and--well, whoever that is, she can guess:]

Morning Kitty. Congratulations on getting laid. Who's your friend?

[Wrath...

She looks at Winn in case he's turned into a monkey with an ice cream cone or something else that would indicate this is a dream. Nope. Still looks like Winn. This is real life where people congratulate you on getting laid. Probably would have happened with the X-Men if she'd been a little older at the time, huh?]

...Thank you.

This is Winn. Winn, this person with a delightful lack of boundaries is Wrath.

Were we that loud? [They might have been. At least the time up against her door.]

[ he hasn't turned into a monkey with an ice cream cone - but he does turn very red. he's not really used to people being that forward. ]

Sorry - [ he clears his throat, tugging at the collar of his shirt. that seals it - they absolutely could never spend the night like that on the tourist - with kara's super hearing she could hear them even if they were quiet - ]

Nice to meet you that's - an unusual name - [ says winn - he's a little rattled, ok. ]

Nah, you just have the I got well-laid smile, so good for you!

[And she grins at Winn and gives him a friendly, light punch on the arm.] And good for you, too. Nice to meet you, Winn.

Is it? I guess so? I was the Lieutenant of Wrath Platoon in the Proles Army so. I'm Wrath.

Yes. I should have been more careful with that smile. [Still smiling with a slight laugh.]

As you can tell it's a super fitting name for her with all the cheerfulness.

[ ok, that relaxes him - he'd much rather be obvious than heard. he laughs a little at the punch. ]

Usually I'd say we could form a club, but mine's feeling increasingly more appropriate. [ definitely feeling like a winner today! ]

[Proof that Kitty has never seen Wrath in command mode. To be fair, she hasn't had to do that since she beat the ever-living fuck out of Theon.]

Why? It's good to be happy that your friends are happy.

[Wait, is Winn--no, he's talking about the names. Okay. Good catch, Wrath, good thing you didn't say anything immediately.]

Definitely appropriate.

Have you guys been friends long?

[She really hasn't. She's still assuming there is more to Wrath than meets the eye for what it's worth though.]

Right. Good to be happy. I need to write that on my hand or something. [Still smiling though.] Since he arrived. So, beginning of March. [She looks at him to check for accuracy.] And then dating less than that. [But don't ask her to pick a time for that. As recently as last night she was still just calling him a friend when introducing him some of the time.]

I can add it to the list of novelty t-shirts to embroider.

[ something to do, if he ever runs out of projects in about 100 years or so -

he nods, confirming those details. ]

Oh come on, there's way better things to put on t-shirts. Like talk shit get hit or fuck the tank or toot toot motherfucker, here comes the pain train or...

That's really nice though, since March. Good for you guys. Bah, dating, whatever, being friends is the best.

[She looks at Winn, trying to keep a straight face.] Are you writing this down? Probably want to add, "bah, dating" as a shirt too.

Hey! Wrath, where is Officer Snuggles? Winn should meet him too.

OK if we ever start our t-shirt business, you're officially hired.

[ but 'bah dating' is not making the cut.

he gives kitty a curious look. ]

Officer...Snuggles? [ so far he's met 'vision' and 'wrath', he won't be as surprised as he should be if that's someone's actual name. clearly he was assigned to the bishop by mistake, he should have been placed on the ss puntastic. ]

That sounds like a fun job?

Oh, sure!

[Wrath whistles a little quick little (tuneless) tune. And a white fox in a tactical vest comes barreling down the corridor full speed. At a hand gesture, he sits, grinning, tongue lolling.]

Winn, this is Officer Snuggles. He's the ship's morale officer. Snuggles,[She reaches out to point at Winn's hand, and Snuggles gets up to sniff at it.] Winn is a good boy.

[Kitty definitely has her way of losing her chill around Snuggles. It helps when Wrath is directing him and keeping him so regimented. Kitty is always just thiiiis close to using a baby voice and rolling around to play with him. Everyone has their weaknesses, okay?]

He's so cute in the vest.

[ it's a pet! his eyes practically light up as he lets him smell his hand good and proper before stroking the top of his head. ]

Hey buddy -- so this is the cool ship!

[ a captain who makes breakfast and a pet fox? oh, yeah, and awesome girlfriend and sort of adopted little sister margaery - ]

It's his working vest, so he's on the job right now. [Saying that for Winn's benefit.] Patrolling the ship and looking for trouble.

[Grin.] We're the best ship in the fleet!

[Kitty just nods and then sneaks some petting in too.] She says that a lot. I assume there was a poll of some kind. [She assumes it's just a thing Wrath says because it's her ship.]

[ he smiles as their fingers briefly brush against each other as they pet. ]

You've got an unfair secret weapon -

It's obvious, Kitty, you just have to look.

Well that's the point of a secret weapon. It's not supposed to be fair. It's supposed to kill all the motherfuckers on the other side when they're not looking.

[Gosh Winn, don't you know anything?]

Edited 2016-04-27 17:03 (UTC)

We're definitely a great crew. Though I have to give it to the Tourist for having bigger beds. [Maybe Kitty will work on that.]

[She smiles back at Winn. Yeah, she's a little too happy to hide her ridiculous this morning.]

You don't really have Officer Snuggles trained to attack people though. ...Right?

[ sorry wrath, he's kind of useless with weapons, unless they're in a video game.

he smiles back at kitty, a little flustered looking at that comment. ]

...is that an actual concern?

[ because he can't tell if you're kidding, kitty. ]

We can work on getting that upgrade! Just talk to the Captain. I don't really mind what we get, honestly, this is already so nice, and if I don't spend the money making everyone else's lives more awesome I'll just buy shoes.

[Not actually a joke, even if delivered with her customary smile.]

He wouldn't be much of an war fox if he didn't know Kill gosh. And he knows guard and we're working on find right now. [Grin.] And I taught him kisses! Because he is the morale officer after all.

I'll run it by him. It's a pricier one, but I have some money. [Let's just not think about how the "sex tape" is part of how she made it.]

[Yes, Winn. Apparently, it was a real concern.] Okay. No using that first one.

...yeah, can I add a vote on that one -

[ now eyeing the fox with concern. he doesn't look like a killer - but then again, kara doesn't look like she could squash him like a bug - ]

[Eyebrows go up as she looks at Kitty.]

It's basically like having a gun. You hope you don't have to use it but you're ready and trained if you do.
