4th Blight - video

[bryces_pup]

Who: Riona and YOU! (and no she's not drunk this time)
Broadcast: Yes
Action: On Blue Fish
When: Today!
Note: Somewhat NSFW link in the post. Nothing graphic or trigger-y!


[The cargo bay of the Blue Fish finds itself a bit less empty than usual. The video opens up on gift baskets covering sections of the floor in the bay. Each one has a little tag attached to it, indicating the intended recipient(s) of the basket. The wrapping on top of each basket are a solid color, hiding what’s inside.

The camera jostles as its owner kneels down next to one.]

Not quite what I expected to come down to this morning.

[Riona remains off-screen, save for her hand, which opens up the tag. Her name is written on it, with a little note reading: “To help you unwind.”]

So. Atroma – I’m assuming – has left some of us with gifts. Given the sheer number in here, and that I don’t recognize the names on some of the baskets down here, it appears these are also for people on other ships. I’m on the Blue Fish, if anyone wants to stop by and see if they received one of these baskets.

[ She sets the camera down, propping it up. The new view provides the chance to see Riona tearing into the paper covering her basket.]

I don’t know what is inside, to be honest. I’m not exactly sure what they mean by helping me “unwind”. Let’s find out, shall we?

[ As she reaches in and begins to pull out something, suddenly there’s a vibration ringing out from inside. The young Warden frowns, the book she had grabbed onto halfway out of the basket.]

Not sure if I want to know what that sound is. Let’s see what this book-

[If one has a watchful eye, they may catch a quick glimpse of the book cover***. At least until Riona gets a good look at it, blushes and sputters, and immediately slams it to the ground.]

Maker’s ball, why would they-

[There’s a curse as she remembers the camera is on and her hand quickly covers the lens before the communicator is shut off.]

((OOC: sponsor drop is open to all! Yhe theme is sex toys, books, etc. the gift baskets can be for individuals or for couples. The Blue Fish no longer has the locks on, so characters can wander freely inside again.

***EDIT: damn it, DW. book cover is this: https://i.imgur.com/Ie3Ocnp.jpg))

Of course. It is a different experience, and there is no reason to remain too comfortable with the status quo.

[So no offence taken. He leans over to kiss her.]

[dancingmd]

[After he kisses her, she hums happily.]

Though that I will never grow tired of.

[thezerothlaw]

How very gratifying. I will endeavour to continue pleasing you.

[He smiles, very slightly.]

[dancingmd]

[That little smile of his means the world to her not only because she likes making those she loves smile, but also because it's so rare of a thing for him. She cups his cheek gently for a moment before coming over to settle herself into his lap.]

Well then, let's see what else they've given us, hmm?

[thezerothlaw]

[He looks back down in the basket, and retrieves a second bottle. More lube, but this one is labelled for industrial and mechanical use, and he looks at it blankly for a moment.]

This does not seem to be an appropriate addition.

[dancingmd]

[Oh, very funny, Atroma. Beverly rolls her eyes.]

That's because it's no doubt intended as a joke. A bad one at that.
