Who: Riona and you!
Broadcast: Yep
Action: On the Blue Fish, if you want
When: Backdated to earlier this week because I forgot to post this earlier like an idiot

[Riona's back on the network, though thankfully she's considerably less annoyed this time around.]

Some of you may recall that Beverly Crusher and I mentioning running a black box theater on the Iskaulit, where others could put on performances and whatnot? Well, someone made the mistake of letting her and I loose in a shop that sold play scripts and the like, and we found one we thought would be delightful to put on.

It's called Captain Bree and Her Lady Pirates and it seems to be a musical comedy about some, well, pirate shenanigans. It sounds a bit ridiculous and quite fun. It's not a big production and it doesn't seem to be intensive in terms of set building and the like. But we wanted to gauge interest before we move forward with it. We'll need actors, of course - preferably if you can sing well enough - along with costume makers and set builders. If anyone wants to see the script, I managed to get a copy on this device so I can send it to you.

[She's rather proud of herself for figuring that one out.]

If enough want to do it, we can look into auditions and the like. Any empty roles we may just fill with people on this asteroid belt who might be interested. Please let either myself or Beverly know as soon as possible if you'd be interested.

This should be immensely entertaining, if nothing else.

I'd be quite grateful. Luckily, it's a short play and it mostly takes place on a ship, so we don't need multiple sets.

Great! When can I come check out the space and work out what you need? Please tell me you need fake cannons. I wanna make fake cannons.

[bryces_pup]

Within the next few days, I would think, if not sooner. I want to get a feel for how many might be interested first and if we can do it in the area Beverly and I had in mind for the theater.

[She smiles apologetically]

Ah, I should say that these are space pirates, not sea pirates like you and I know. [It's a bummer.] Still, space ships have weapons.

[alwayscomeback]

That's a great idea. Make sure you can fit everyone in and all that awesome stuff.

Aww.

[Then, like a kid asking for a puppy for Christmas: ]

...I could make fake space cannons?

[bryces_pup]

[Riona bursts out laughing. She can't help it, it's such a heartfelt request.]

Oh, why not? I'm sure some ship somewhere out there as them.

[Victory is his. He does a little fistbump with a hissed 'yesssss'. ]

I'm sure too! Anything is possible in space, after all.

[bryces_pup]

I'll try and get you some help so you're not doing it all on your own. We may have to reach out to the natives here, but so be it.

[alwayscomeback]

That's cool. I'm sure the natives will want to be a part of it. Give them a little fun to their lives.

[bryces_pup]

That doesn't involve their obnoxious music or clothes, at any rate.

[alwayscomeback]

Tell me about it. Allen loves this stuff, and I really don't get it. It's too spiky.

[bryces_pup]

Somehow I'm not surprised, given what his bedroom looks like.

[alwayscomeback]

I know, right? Every time I go in there, I'm half expecting to find a skeleton just...propped up against a wall.

[bryces_pup]

It's like one of those movies I saw, a... horror one, I think they're called? But tackier and with less blood.

[alwayscomeback]

WAY tackier. I mean, if anyone new came to the ship and went inside, they'd assume Allen was some kind of serial killer.

[bryces_pup]

I suppose we've been fortunate that hasn't happened yet. Though frankly, I'd find it amusing to see him have to explain it to someone.

[alwayscomeback]

I think it's important that we record it when it does happen. For posterity.

[bryces_pup]

Ooooh, good idea. Allen might not think so, but pah.

[alwayscomeback]

Eh, what he doesn't know can't hurt us.
