Who: Jeyne and YOU!
Broadcast: N/A
Action: S.S. Blue Fish, S.S. Iskaulit, Anywhere
When: Jan 6th

Iskaulit

[Since hearing of it from Beverly, Jeyne visited the gardens at least twice in a week. With her lessons in medicine increasing, it seemed a wise idea to test the various plants and determine what sort of use they might have. With small samples, she is able to experiment and test, all mainly with herself (as she wouldn't want to subject anyone else to this.) Some plants are recognizable or close to what she knew in her world. For the rest? It's a guessing game.

Her latest project is a sweet smelling salve. When not attempting to mix it with other plants, she rubs it gently on her wrists, smelling the aroma with a small smile.]

Blue Fish

[From one type of experimenting to another. With very few patients to treat, Jeyne has begun to occupy herself with different skills, determined to learn them and no longer be a wastrel. She practices her cooking when able, sometimes not burning the meal and slowly making something that looks nearly appetizing. She continues her lessons with Beverly in medicine, dutifully taking notes. When not with Beverly, she reads over all the information she compiled, committing it to memory and practicing in her head. There are times when she wanders to the cargo deck, toying with her bow (sans arrows), muttering to herself as she works at her aiming.

It's a bit difficult without a target or arrows, but she doesn't intend to injure anyone...even if it would help improve her medical training.]

Comments

[goodandtrue]

I should love that! Would it take much to create them?

[Smart Sokka, smart.]

That is what I have been told. I only hope I don't forget it all, should we face trouble.

[alwayscomeback]

Fttt, nah. I can make something like that in an afternoon, no biggie.

[He tries, he does. ]

I'm sure you'll be fine. A lot of it comes as instinct, in the heat of battle.

[goodandtrue]

I'd be grateful and I imagine the crew would be as well.

[She couldn't even imagine being in a battle.]

Have you been in any battles?

[alwayscomeback]

You know, we could hold little contests as well. Archery. Maybe we'll all get really great at it.

[Just in case. ]

I...yeah, quite a few, actually. I helped lead the biggest one. It was the final big battle against the people who were trying to destroy the world.

[goodandtrue]

We could give out prizes as well! Treats or something else!

[It would give them good incentive to practice.]

Destroy the world? The men must have had a great deal of faith in you to follow you. Many of the older soldiers in our world scoff at young commanders. It says a great deal about your abilities.

[alwayscomeback]

That's the way to look at it! Really get that competitive spirit going!

I errr- thanks.

[He looks a little embarrassed, rubbing the back of his neck. ]

I- I failed them, the first attack I led. Things I didn't foresee happened and a lot of our men got captured, along with my father. I managed to get him out, but I still didn't deserve their trust after that.

[But they gave it him, anyway. ]

[goodandtrue]

Not every battle is won, no man is perfect or knows exactly what to do the first time. How can you learn without some losses? They still followed you and believed in your abilities.

[He sounded so much like Robb.]

You prove your worth daily in leading this ship.

[alwayscomeback]

That's what my dad said too, pretty much. I wish I'd done better, if I'd just thought of that possibility.

[That cheers him up significantly, though. He's always glad to hear he's doing a good job on the Blue Fish. He's got this deep, internal need for praise on this kind of thing.]

Really? That's great to hear. Thanks.

[goodandtrue]

Now you know to think of that possibility in the future.

[But she's glad that she's helped cheer him up.]

I truly mean it, Sokka.

[alwayscomeback]

[She's good people, she's made him smile. ]

I will, I promise. And thanks. For the vote of confidence.
