Who: Kitty and all the people of fleet!
Broadcast: Yes!
Action: Windrose if you want
When: At some point before the masquerade

We have a masquerade coming up, and I was bored so I thought I'd mettle in people's lives for my own amusement. First, the disclaimer, there is nothing wrong with going to a dance solo.

Now, for anyone else, who wants a date?

Sorry, not me. Taken. But there are probably some of you out there thinking a date would be fun, and sure, why not? So speak up. Let's make some love connections. Or, you know, awkward dancing connections. I'm a mutant, not a miracle worker.

(OOC: Please feel free to threadjack.)

He apparently has problems with authority. When I made it clear I take being Captain seriously, he transferred rather than deal with me.

I guess it's good to know your limitations. [She laughs lightly.] So maybe not him then. What were you having people do?

Not much of anything, actually. I just made an announcement to introduce myself and explain my style of leadership. I pointed out that I expect them to trust that when I give an order, especially in an emergency situation, it's for the good of the whole ship. Apparently he wasn't prepared to do that.

So anyway, other ideas?

Oh, sure the threat of maybe someday needing to listen to something. I can see where that would be intolerable. [Leto, pls. Besides, if things don't work out in an emergency you just assert command yourself, right? Whatever it takes.]

And other ideas... Well, people are still rolling in. What do you like in a...fill in the blank?

I'm a harsh task master, what can I say.

[ Hera waves it off with the dry sarcasm, and is more than willing to change the subject. ]

I, uh. I don't know, actually. I can't say I've ever been to something like this before. Probably someone who wouldn't expect me to dance.

I guess so.

Okay, first of all, that's a shame. Second of all, Ramse is looking for someone. He seems nice and when I asked him if he would point out someone's skin color to them he said no.

I don't think I've ever spoken to him, but that sounds like a good start!

Couldn't hurt, right? I told him he should call you. So, you can blame that on me.

[firstrebel]

Oh, don't worry, I will.

I make exciting new trouble for myself when no one else thinks to bring me any.

I suppose there are worse things than potentially failed matchmaking attempts.

It would be surprising and weird if there weren't.
