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... can't imagine leaving my daughter under any circumstance. But I'm sure your mother had her reasons. And... it's pretty strong to be able to look at that without anger.

[He doesn't get it, at all, but he thinks Kara is a bigger person than him for being able to accept and forgive that choice.]

I imagine he had a reason in that malfunctioning tactical computer of a brain, but I literally don't know what it is. He just left. No explanation. No reason. Just... said he was leaving and left.

[ he's going to get upgraded to a full hug ]

I'm sorry.

[Kara isn't cold to hug.

Most people are a bit chilled to Apollo. He runs hot, filled with heat and light and solar energy. But Kara is warm and she gives really good hugs as it happens, so he hugs her back just a warmly. Metaphorically.]

Thanks.

Man, this conversation really went places. Not that I mind. Do you have more culinary experiments for me to try?

[He sits himself up in the air, which is a bad habit, but he does it anyway.]

Not right now. I have plans but nothing finished that I'd inflict on someone. I incinerated a couple of truly gag worthy experiments.

All right. I suppose I'll let that slide.

I was planning on trying some more baking. We might be able to make a decent bread out of what's here...

Though bread takes ages. You have to do that resting thing.

It could be worth the wait, though. Fresh bread is amazing.

... you make a compelling argument.

Lets try this bread thing. Wanna stick around and help?

I would love to.

Awesome! We need... yeast.

Hm.

I know how to cultivate yeast, but it takes like... a week.

Flatbread, maybe?

Yeah. And I can start growing yeast. I saw something on tv about it once, that you can make a wild yeast cultivation in a jar with flour and water, I think it was...

Yeah, I highly doubt you could buy some on this moon. Maybe the next?

Here's hoping. There's a few things I'd like to get.

A cow would be good.

...As a pet?

[ She's not a vegetarian, but a girl can hope ]

Yeah. For milk.

I have no idea how to look after an animal, so it's actually a terrible idea.

Neither do I... maybe someone does?

Hm. I'll ask about. Maybe we could get a full, like, biozone going in the Iskaulit. Grow crops, have farm stock..

If I come across someone with those skills I'll let you know. Even on Krypton, my family was involved in the government. I have no idea how farms work.

I know... what they show on kids shows. Seen enough of them with Jenny.

And that one time Jeroen turned a bunch of clone soldiers into a forest, but that's not really anything to do with the natural cycle of life.

Wait.

What?

What? Huh?

Explain the last one to me?

Jeroen reforesting Los Angeles?

Yeah. It's a thing he does sometimes. I don't know how. He's incredibly powerful... when he has the confidence to be.
