Who: Cisco Ramon
Broadcast: fleetwide
Action: the marsiva
When: current

[ today you can see cisco ramon putting tons of cheddar gel between two wheat solids, pressing them all together into a sandwich before heating them up on the highest setting available. it's not really grilled cheese but it's as close as it comes.

he's already eating out of a plate of frozen banana cubes ]

ok so eating all of this alone while everyone else is partying is absolutely my senior prom all over again just in space-setting.

[ oh to be a nerd, even in space. ]

so - what do we call ourselves? the fleeters? this is just for future knowledge, I am not in any way implying that title is.

[ the space microwave beeps ]

are they going to serve frozen tequila cubes in that party? because if so then a) awesome and b) I think those should definitely be provided to those of us who are stuck here on board of the SS No-Date.

Just saying.

[benames]

well, I call us that and some characters in movies do so - totally a legit way to call us.

[ he shakes his head. they really need more aliens if only for the cool factor of it all ]

probably because we get the most freaked out and it's probably funny.

[resnipstance]

Oh-- that's right. You guys haven't managed inter-galactic travel yet, have you? At least, that's what I keep hearing from everyone else.

[benames]

I wish!

[ don't even get cisco started ]

we managed traveling in our own galaxy but inter-galactic travels are like - a serious dream for some of us.

[ namely him ]

[resnipstance]

Hey, you'll get there! If you've managed travel within your own solar system, inter-galactic travel can't be more than a few thousand years off.

[The Star Wars universe is old as balls, okay.]

[benames]

hopefully not thousands because I still have a life's dream to do it myself. it's at the top of my bucket list.

[ cisco ramon: the next han solo ]

[resnipstance]

Well-- technically you already have, haven't you? By coming here.

[benames]

well yeah but not thanks to Earth technology and I missed the whole jump and the speed of light and -

[ ... ok yeah, he'll clear his throat ]

I've been watching a lot of movies about space.

[resnipstance]

Honestly, you're not missing much. Space travel is kind of boring.

[Says someone who gets to do it all the time.]

[benames]

what!

[ shrieking and ok he's definitely flailing ]

no it's not, it's like the coolest way to travel. you can have your own space ship and go at jump speeds and -

[ ... ]

but since you're doing it all the time, I guess I can see where you're coming from.

[resnipstance]

Well, you have ships that go from continent to continent on your planet, right? It's mostly just like that.

[benames]

yeah we mostly fly. they're called airplanes but they're much slower than any of these ships and they can only go so high.

[ huh ]

I wonder what fuel they use for these.

[resnipstance]

Well, if it's anything like the ships we use back home, it's probably--

[INSERT A LOT OF VERY ADVANCED SCI-FI TECHNOBABBLE HERE. Ahsoka knows her stuff. I do not.]

[benames]

man, that would be legit. Do you think they'll let me actually crawl in and check any of those things..?

[ will you not do it even if they say no, cisco? ]

[resnipstance]

I can tell you with one hundred percent certainty that they absolutely won't.

But hey, you could always try anyway?

[benames]

alas.

[ lifting hands in surrender but. ]

.....never hurts to try. I -- sincerely hope.

[resnipstance]

[Ahsoka shrugs cheerily.]

No one's died yet!

[benames]

...I'll go with it and hope the odds be ever in my favor.

[ cisco your nerd is showing ]
