[ It takes him a few weeks but Kubo finally manages to settle into a routine much like the one he had at home. He wakes up just before dawn before heading down to the kitchen and turning on the stove. Kubo managed to purchase a few cans of baked beans and other food supplies from the planet which he stores in the cupboards above (and some he left for Max outside his door as thanks).

Otherwise he wanders around the ship, exploring places he hasn't seen before. One of the storage spaces becomes a tiny area for origami animals propped up in a row. You could even catch him poking at the droids and giggling as they beep at him. ]

( EARLY FEBRUARY )

[ first things first: peggy, acting as both captain and communications officer, gets whiff of some of the other ships fiddling with those scrambler devices found not long ago on some of the fleet's vessels. shipmates are free to discuss the possibility with her, and ultimately the device gets installed back into the system. she chooses a brusque but informative hailing message: this is the ss starstruck. is anyone out there? during this time, she can be found tinkering on the bridge. extra credit to anyone who brings her a cuppa while she works.

additionally, she sticks to her early morning training sessions in the cargo bay -- either clocking cardio on the treadmill or by throwing heavy punches into the hanging bag. in these moments, she's always at her most casual: hair tied back, plain white cotton shirt, loose trousers. she's stopped applying lipstick before her morning workouts. there's a renewed toughness to her. ]

( REST OF THE MONTH )

[ -- her schedule remains much the same, barring a few trips off-ship to poke around this new planetary system. but there are a few notable oddities. one morning, she's brushing her teeth in the communal bathrooms, humming to herself, and a pile of washclothes starts to float a few inches off the counter. or she's drinking tea while tackling paperwork and the subsequent calm she finds in its completion causes her (and her chair) to lift fractionally off the floor.

or, perhaps, she's caught in a foul mood -- and everything in the room starts to feel a little heavier. simple dishes are suddenly a chore to lift and move. ]

Do you think the Starstruck could manage without us for a day?
