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! ]

[takingkarabusiness]

Yeah. But it just seems like that's the kind of thing you can't turn off.

[beathach]

No - not really.

[takingkarabusiness]

Anyway, I feel like that wasn't the point you were going for.

[beathach]

I don't think it was a point so much as just agreeing with you again.

[takingkarabusiness]

That's fair.

So, any other dispatches from home?

[beathach]

[with a wry smile]

Nothing too big, no. Our - big events tend to happen in ten year gaps. But it's 1983, now - and half the references people used to throw at me actually make sense now.

[takingkarabusiness]

[ she laughs ]

I guess that would help. That's kind of weirdly regular though, don't you think?

[beathach]

What's wrong with regular?

[takingkarabusiness]

Not necessarily.

[beathach]

Heh. What sort of things did you mean, then? You can ask questions if you want.

[takingkarabusiness]

Oh, I don't know.

As long as everything is all well with you...?

[beathach]

[he smiles, small but honest]

As well as it can be.

[takingkarabusiness]

That's not exactly a revealing answer.

[beathach]

There's not a lot to reveal? [a bit sheepishly] I'm stressed and worried, but that's not anything new. And it's not as bad as it was when we first woke up.

[takingkarabusiness]

Okay, well, if you need anything, I do have a personnel augment.

[beathach]

You know I wouldn't come to you because of your augment.

[takingkarabusiness]

Yeah, but my sweet, sweet office?

[beathach]

That is a plus.

[takingkarabusiness]

Which is mostly Winn's workspace but anyway. I really do mean it.

[beathach]

I know you do. I might take you up on it.

[takingkarabusiness]

Even if you just want to hang out. There are some movies on the network that you might not have seen yet?

[beathach]

I haven't seen any of the movies on the network, as far as I remember. [a little sheepishly] I'd like a movie night, though. Raven and I have one planned, too.

[in other words, distractions are wonderful, he'll take them all]

[takingkarabusiness]

We can have a group one. Natasha and I are planning semi-regular ones, I think.

[beathach]

I think we'd both like that.

[takingkarabusiness]

I'll let you know when we have our next one.
