Action: Caprine
When: Not too long after shuffle

Oooo, look at this communicator!

[ Hello, fleet! Have an enthusiastic blonde latina grinning and waving at you ]

Hi! Wow, this is so great, isn't this just fascinating? And these augments, they put information into your brain, does that mean they cracked the code of how to create specific impulses and connections between your neurons? It's amazing, I wish I could take it out and poke at it.

I wonder if it's electrically or chemically based.

[ ponder ]

Oh! Right, I completely forgot, hiiii! I'm new around here, and I just got so distracted by all this new information in my head and this new place we're in! I really should go home if I can, I know, but think of the learning opportunities!

Comments

[everydayhero]

Yeah. The Bishop.

[He's quiet, for a second. He swallows, and gives her a thin, weary smile.]

I told him Professor Callaghan made it out.

[And while if Tadashi looks at this and sees the look on his face, he'll probably assume that the thinly-veiled pain is about the fact that he himself did not... Honey will understand that he means that it's all he could tell him about their beloved professor.]

[fotofoto]

[ she nods a little ]

Do you want me to tell him about the... project we worked on?

[ There are things she can share if Tadashi corners her about this bit, if Hiro says no, so she thought it was an acceptable risk to ask about it. It could be Hiro just can't say it.

It could be Hiro doesn't want him to know, and if that's the case, Honey can't say she'd blame him. She's not sure she wants Tadashi to know about Callaghan either. ]

[everydayhero]

Nah, I don't want to reveal it until I'm sure it'll go the way we planned it to.

[It went exactly as well as it could have, and he knows it. It's just a line to cover their tracks.]

[fotofoto]

[ Thankfully, Honey's quick on the uptake, especially when she's the one who started the code. ]

Well, I'm telling him about the portable mixture unit you helped me with, anyway, because that was fantastic and you should be very proud.

[ also it's a real project, so she doesn't have to lie much about it! :D ]

[everydayhero]

[He sighs about as heavily as he can force, rolling his eyes.]

If you must. I should see if I can get my hands on all the chemicals to make another one. Now that Tadashi's on my ship, the lab is open again.

[fotofoto]

[ Okay, that does get an actual excited squeal out of her ]

Ohmygosh I will get stuff for brownies or cake or something and I will make them and come over and we can do science together, it'll be just like home!

[everydayhero]

[Little genuine smile from Hiro. He definitely missed you, Honey.]

I'm looking forward to that. Without you or Aunt Cass around, good food's been pretty scarce.

[fotofoto]

Oh, don't even worry. I have the cooking augment, plus I can already cook amazingly, so I will so completely feed you.

[everydayhero]

You're a lifesaver, Honey Lemon.

[ugh food sounds so good.]

So which ship are you on?

[fotofoto]

It's edible chemistry! It's as much fun for me to make as it is for you to eat, definitely.

The SS Caprine, apparently. It's not bad. The kitchen's... very small.

[everydayhero]

Well, there are jobs down on Mor that you can take to get some money. Other than that, it's based on your "ratings" in the show. Once you have the money, you can apply for an upgrade.

[fotofoto]

Well, I'll just have to do that, won't I? Can't be making you brownies in a sub-par kitchen with nothing but protein goo, right?

[everydayhero]

If you need any help, I made some pretty mad cash last month doing some cargo runs.

[plus i'm pretty sure tadashi and i are getting the hope diamond for our performance this week]

[fotofoto]

[ Yeah, she's pretty sure those ratings would be through the roof. ]

Aw, you're so sweet! I won't take any of your money if I don't have to, though, you need to save up to buy stuff for whatever totally amazing projects you decide to work on here.

[everydayhero]

I've got quite a bit up and running already. The Bishop is definitely the coolest ship.

[fotofoto]

Clearly I will have to work very hard to make sure my ship gives it a run for its money.

[everydayhero]

I've got a head start, you're gonna have to be up for a few weeks to get it that good.

[fotofoto]

Oh, believe me, I will find a way. Don't you underestimate me, the ladies of my family are indomitable.

[everydayhero]

I look forward to the challenge. I know you won't disappoint me.
