Who: Heron crew + visitors
Broadcast: no
Action: the SS Heron
When: November

[Those spooky scary skeletons are back in the cupboard for another year, but the ship cruises onward. Whether the crew is taking a break from the planetary mystery and waystations, or just generally hanging around the ship mingling, the Heron is here for you.]

Likewise.

Oh... if you haven't seen it already, Charles and I have set up some plants in the cargo hold. It won't take over the entire space, no more than what's already been done.

..I was wondering where that came from. It's a good use for the empty space.

[He lifts a shoulder in a faint shrug. Considerations of using the space hadn't factored into the decision much. They had raised the idea, and then made it work. That was all. The fact that they shared this space with others had only occurred to Erik after.]

It will probably take a while for them to grow into anything substantial.

That's part of the appeal, isn't it? That you have to watch it grow.

[ It's nice to see that the Heron is starting to become a home as opposed to a place they're stuck. It took long enough, anyway. Not that they want to be stuck here. ]

[He nods, conceding the point.]

It's part of it. I haven't really thought that far ahead.

It's something to take care of that can't sass back to you, too.

[ Not that that holds any sort of appeal. ]

[He smiles faintly.]

That can have its benefits, if it's done right.

That' right. I can't wait to see what they grow into, at any rate.
