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.]

[Apollo flicks to a photo and holds it out.

Jeroen is a young man still, slightly odd looking, a touch shy in front of the camera and he's definitely floating cross legged in the air. His hands are held out, palm up, and Jenny's little hands rest in his, standing in the air with him.]

He's a lanky streak of a person. The Global Shaman, they call him. When one Doctor dies, the next is awakened and it always goes to the person who wants it least, because they won't abuse the power.

Jeroen claims Jesus was one of his predecessors.

That is quite the claim, given what I understand about Earth religions.

He sounds like a great guy, though.

And the clone soldiers... they were against you?

[Apollo shrugs.]

Well, he doesn't usually make it publicly, because people get touchy.

Yeah. They'd already attacked done a fuck load of damage on Moscow and part of London. Jeroen... lost his temper. Decided that a large number of them really needed to be trees instead.

Well, it is one way to deal with the problem at hand. Not sure it's the direction I'd go, but I can't do what he does.

Tell me about it.

It did get rid of the problem of civilian casualties in that area.

And helped combat global warming?

And that.

You gotta be careful correcting things like that. You don't wanna make something else a problem when you do it.

Apparently.

How do you mean?

I don't really know, but apparently if you make massive changes, it can unbalance things. A sudden forest changes the ecology and the weather of the area it goes in to. And changing that changes other stuff, elsewhere.
