everybody's starstruck in june.

[mucked]

Who: starstruck crew & visitors
Broadcast: n/a
Action: aboard the ship
When: june

[ another month; another mingle. but there are changes in the air! the starstruck has some fresh crew to boast of, as well as a spiffing new lounge. things have been difficult, lately -- the common area might make for a great place to decompress and socialize with your fellow starstruckers.

after all, it seems the captain's gone and requisitioned max's record player. for the first week in june, it'll be returned again and again to the new lounge. good luck hiding it from her, rockatanksy.

ready steady go! ]

[ his appreciation garners a nod. nothing more; nothing less. discretion doesn't ask for anything beyond itself and so she offers no further comment. either he will manage to find a way to explain his situation to steve, or it will go unsaid until it needs saying. peggy prefers for her first mate to have all the details but she knows well enough that steve wouldn't begrudge the man his secrets. so if it takes a while? so be it. peggy has always been the one more likely to turn sour because of some piece of hoarded intel.

but then he goes as far as dismissing her -- from the conversation, perhaps, but not the kitchen. she won't have him thinking she'll leave just because he implies she should.

friendly enough: ] Of course. How diligent of you.

[ but thereafter she lapses into silence while she drains her tea and pours herself another cup. in the meantime? well, she's gracious enough to wash her own plate and fork. he cooked, after all. and she's not afraid to roll her sleeves up and throw her weight behind the tidying.

only then, some seven or so minutes after their conversation had officially 'ended' does she breeze out of the kitchen as easily as she'd breezed in. ]
