Kara's Craft Corner

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! ]

I'm very reassured.

[winn]

Well that was easy.

[ he folds out a stick because that's pretty straightforward. ]

[takingkarabusiness]

It's not too hard to convince me.

[winn]

One of my favorite things about you.

[ nudging ]

[takingkarabusiness]

Hopefully the stubbornness is another one...

[winn]

Depends who you're using it on.

[takingkarabusiness]

Who, me?

[winn]

That act doesn't work on me, Danvers, I know you.

[ pointing at his eyes, pointing at her ]

So what are you gonna be stubborn about?

[takingkarabusiness]

I don't know yet. I just didn't want to leave the impression that I'm too easy to convince.

[winn]

Considering some of the things you've convinced me to do - [ like, say, hacking into the deo - ] I think you're safe here.

[takingkarabusiness]

Fair.

What colors should we make the lollipop?

[winn]

I dunno uh - red?

[takingkarabusiness]

...How about pink, white, and teal.

[winn]

Gotta be honest with you there, that doesn't sound appetizing.

[takingkarabusiness]

Really? Why?

[winn]

I dunno, pink and teal - [ oh god now he knows why he's resisting those colors - they're making him think babies. kitty broke him. ]

They're very - pink and teal. [ that totally makes sense, right, no need for further explanation. ]

[takingkarabusiness]

They're very on trend.

[winn]

Which is another word for cliche - [ he's not doing it ] how about purple, white, and something? [ purple makes him think about kate. that's a better association to have every time he walks in the kitchen. ]

[takingkarabusiness]

Sure?

[winn]

So what's our third color?

[ back to enthusiasm!! it's a little thing, but he loves her so much right now for not pushing the issue. ]

[takingkarabusiness]

Peach?

[winn]

Peach it is -- [ looking through the papers ] -- where's the peach, you've got like every color here -

[takingkarabusiness]

Right, right. I know I saw some... maybe on this table over here...

[ she fishes around on another table and ta-da! peach ]

[winn]

Ah-ha! Now it's just the simple matter of figuring out how to make a lollipop!

[ it's gonna take a little time. ]

[takingkarabusiness]

Right, that whole... round thing. Maybe a modified pinwheel?
