Who: The intrepid crew of the SS Paisley!
Broadcast: anything could happen, I guess?
Action: Anywhere on the ship
When: From the shuffle through the end of the month

[ Well the ship could only stay empty but for her captain for so long. And I'm sure the audience is just DYING to know what happens when these older folks show up and find their ship is captained by a 17-year-old with an attitude problem.

Let the games begin... ]

[ GO TO YOUR ROOM. ]

Shall I call you captain Tay, then? [ she says it sincerely. like so sincerely it has to be a joke, right? RIGHT? no, she's serious. ] I will be sure to.

[ NO, FUCK YOU ]

Uh. [ Okay, she's mostly awake now, and she manages not to actually laugh in Lior's face, just look extremely dubious of her sanity and intelligence. ] No, just Tay's fine.

[ she is a completely sane, intelligent glowing elf woman despite what you weirdos may think :'( ]

Very well, Tay. It is a pleasure to meet you - all things considered. Might I ask how long you have been on this ship?

Eh. Been here about a week, but I transferred over from the Starstruck. Been on the fleet about 3 weeks, I guess.

I see. And have you met our other crewmates yet?

Joel.

[ Is this small talk?

She hates it. ]

Ah, I met him as well. [ it is, because she's not really sure what else to say. tay's not really giving her much to go on here. ] He did not seem too pleased to speak with me. Did you happen to fair better?

[ Sorry, Lior, it's not you, honest. Or well, it is you, but it's Tay's impression of you more than anything. ]

I guess. Talked about weapons.

[ Seriously what is with this lady, it's not like Tay can't be curious about someone, but seriously, she got woken up for this? ]

He's not really chatty.

[ WHAT DID SHE DO. also she got woken up because sleeping on the floor is probably bad for her back, and lioriley, for some reason, worries about people she doesn't even know. ]

So I noticed. [ apparently she's the only one that wants to talk. which is fine to a degree. ]

At any rate, it was a pleasure speaking with you, Tay. Should you require anything of me, I will likely be in the medical wing.

[ She'll warm up to you. Probably. At some point.

Seriously though, Tay doesn't actually realize that her family's habit of grabbing little bits of sleep literally whenever and wherever they can when they're somewhere at least moderately secure is in any way unusual.

WHY DO PEOPLE KEEP WAKING HER UP DURING HER NAPS GOSH. ]

Yeah, cool.

[ Tay's just gonna... eat some protein goo or something.

We're sorry about your shipmates, Lior. ]
