Kara's Craft Corner

[takingkarabusiness]

Who: Kara & U
Broadcast: fleetwide
Action: The Iskaulit!
When: Now!

[ Kara is in the lecture hall on the Iskaulit, with materials strewn about. There's ribbon and fabric and pompoms and paper and, of course, GLITTER. She probably has some glitter on her cheek. She looks cheery and waves at the camera ]

Hi, Fleet! Fleeters. Have we come up with a demonym? Or a collective noun? "A floot of fleeters". Eh, needs work.

Anyway, I set up some arts & crafts in the lecture hall on the Iskaulit because it's been very hectic and stressful lately and I thought we could use some creative outlets! Consider this my contribution to the Fleet as someone with a personnel augment. Craft therapy!

So come on by, spread glitter around, and maybe even meet new people! I'll be here for awhile—my room could really use some sprucing up.

[ she waves again and cuts the feed, though she's more than happy to chat with people over the videolink. All are invited to the craft party though! ]

It would be a very lame spaceship if a tiny open flame were a huge deal. [Not that there aren't ways of making it a huge deal, but she's not looking to blow anything up.] We'd probably all be dead by now if that's all it took.

Ms. Grant is the scary one, right? [She listens to Winn too much.]

[video]

[takingkarabusiness]

Ms. Grant is an incredibly brilliant and successful businesswoman who can, at some times, be slightly intimidating, yes.

[video]

[passingthrough]

You look up to her, huh?

[video]

[takingkarabusiness]

There really isn't anyone else like her, probably in the world.

[video]

[passingthrough]

I'm taking that as a double yes with gumdrops.

[video]

[takingkarabusiness]

I won't argue with that. She's my boss.

[video]

[passingthrough]

Careful. They can be flawed too. [She's having some "boss" issues lately.] It's a big fall.

[video]

[takingkarabusiness]

The thing about being someone's personal assistant is that you get a pretty clear view of who they are. I've seen her at her lower points.

[video]

[passingthrough]

That's a good starting place. Less of a surprise later.

So, crafts? Where did that come from?

[video]

[takingkarabusiness]

Sometimes it's just nice to create things. You should come over!

[video]

[passingthrough]

And get glitter on me for the rest of time? No tha... Winn is already there infecting himself, isn't he? [Sigh.]

[video]

[takingkarabusiness]

He totally is.

Can't you just phase the glitter off?

[video]

[passingthrough]

Oh, wow. Probably. That would take some precision phasing. At least it would if I wanted to keep my clothes on at the same time. [It does actually sound like an interesting challenge now.]

[video]

[takingkarabusiness]

You look like you want to test that.

[video]

[passingthrough]

Sure, but how do you feel about seeing what happens if I can't keep my clothes on?

[video]

[takingkarabusiness]

I wasn't saying I needed to witness it.

[video]

[passingthrough]

No commitment from you, Danvers. Disappointed.

[video]

[takingkarabusiness]

Sorry, my sister's the scientist.

[video]

[passingthrough]

Now, now, no need to study me.

So, do I want to know what the boyfriend is making?

[video]

[takingkarabusiness]

We're making ice cream and lollipop paper streamer thingies.

[video]

[passingthrough]

Wait, actual ice cream or paper ice cream? [Her hopes are thiiiis close to being all kinds of up.]

[video]

[takingkarabusiness]

Paper ice cream. You have to hit up Cisco and Hank for the real stuff.

[video]

[passingthrough]

Maybe I eat paper ice cream. You don't know. [Smiling.]

[video]

[takingkarabusiness]

You're right, I don't. But I have a pretty strong suspicion.

[video]

[passingthrough]

You and your studying earthling behavior. Fine. It's taught you well. I don't eat paper ice cream. I hope you're happy.
