Who: Apollo
Broadcast: Fleet wide
Action: SS Bishop
When: Now-ish?

Broadcast

[Apollo looks... a little flustered? Slightly bewildered? Like he might have accidentally exploded cooking supplies?]

I'm trying this cooking thing. I'm pretty sure it's not dangerous to eat, but does anyone want to come and be a guinea pig? These gel things are making roasts a lot fucking harder than they should be...

Action

[On the Bishop, Apollo has taken over the kitchen for now. He manages to look surprisingly domestic, bumming around in ship standard provided clothing and hair pulled up into a ponytail that bobs along to whatever music he's imagining as he 'cooks'.

Cooking occasionally involves eye lasers. Which doesn't work on the gels half as well as he hoped it would.]

I'll volunteer. [ #nofear ] It can't get any worse than some of my cooking experiments on the Blameless.

[neversets]

[Apollo laughs.]

Well, I can't promise that, but this cooking augment thingy seems to be helping out some. And I think I've managed to make something passable as cottage pie with mashed potatoes?

video

[ladybro]

Yeah, I got one of those too. But Gordan Ramsay I still am not. [ she flashes a hapless smile. ] But cottage pie sounds good.

[neversets]

Cottage pie like thing.

[That's important. Don't have high expectations here.]

I'm Apollo, by the way.

[takingkarabusiness]

I'll volunteer. Even though we're complete strangers. But I like to have faith in people.

[neversets]

I'm on the Bishop, my name's Apollo, feel free to come on over!

[takingkarabusiness]

Kara. I'll be over in a few!

[ and she is over! she's bouncy and peppy and she peeks her head into the kitchen ]

Knock knock!

[neversets]

[Apollo is busy dancing while he mixes up what looks like a cake batter in a bowl. He's optimistic about his ability to produce something edible and desert like.]

Hi! Come on in.

[beathach]

You didn't kill me, so I can at least vouch for your first attempt.

[neversets]

Yeah, but the ingredients on the Marsiva were a lot better than what I'm dealing with here.

But thank you. Want to try my cottage pie like thing?

[beathach]

I don't think what you're dealing with can even be called "ingredients".

And - well, I won't say no to food. Where are you?

[neversets]

No, there's like, actual flour and sugar here! Which are ingredients.

The gel crap, yeah, no, that's... not fun.

I'm on the Bishop!

[universal_charm]

Gels...?

Yeah, okay, I'll be right over.

What ship are you on?

_{[ He likes you to much to let you poison yourself, Apollo. ]}

[neversets]

Gels. The main food thing here, as far as I can tell. But there's other stuff too.

I'm on the Bishop.

[universal_charm]

Bishop, got it.

I might be a bachelor, but I can show you how to cook something that won't potentially poison you. Captain's guarantee.

[neversets]

I can't be poisoned, so it's not a big problem for me. I'm more worried about poisoning one of my crew mates.

[archaeotechnician]

On the bright side, you can't possibly be worse than the pony. [ js. ]

You get enough volunteers?

[neversets]

... the pony?

[Does he want to know?]

I don't need volunteers, but I'm always open to company coming over.

[archaeotechnician]

[ probably not, but he's gonna find out. ]

Bright pink pony. Very enthusiastic. As a cook…nnnnnot entirely recommended. And I know, I know, it was on me, I should have known better, but… [ #sighs ]

[astrobleme]

'Pretty sure'? What the heck did you do to it?

[neversets]

I cooked it.

But I basically have an incinerator of a digestive system, so I can't say for sure that there's no problems.

[astrobleme]

That's kind of scary.

[... Shinji is feeling kind of self-destructive, so he's really considering his options here.]

I've never had food poisoning, but I guess there's a first time for everything. Which ship are you on?

[ecclesiophobic]

[Oh look he actually is blue normally.]

I'd volunteer, but after the last few years of the war I'm fairly certain I could eat tin without suffering ill effects.

[neversets]

Kurt! How did the dye come out? All evenly, or did it linger in patches?

[Apparently he really is that cheerful all the time.]

Well, it probably tastes better than tin. Most responses have been positive.

[ecclesiophobic]

Most of it came out, but I can't take credit for that. I had a little help.

[That smile is infectious, because Kurt finds himself smiling back a little.]

So you've made very good tasting poison?
