Who: Crowley and you!
Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action: Málum - Iskaulit
When: Right now

[Crowley had checked the vast majority of his people were where they were supposed to be- annoyingly, Allen was passed out, but he's not going to share that with everyone because, well, he had more exciting news to share. He'd gone to check on his bar, and found the upgrades he'd paid for had finally borne fruit.

As such, he turns on the camera with a sharp-toothed grin. Bohemian Rhapsody can be heard faintly in the background (sometimes, the jukebox got stuck on it) as Crowley pans the camera to a slushie machine. Look at how that coloured ice sludge spins slowly. So delicious.]

So! While we were having our fun little time in our own heads, it seems Málum has had a bit of an upgrade! We now have a bona-fide slushie machine. Which means we can have alcoholic slushies. So while you lot are drowning your sorrows about unwanted memories or...apparently celebrating coming out of a closet, you can do it with a boozy cup of flavoured ice.

Isn't that great?

[He could have bought him and Felix a bigger bedroom, he could have done that but no. This is what he devoted his credits on. This right here.]

If you come by with some emotional scarring from your calibrations, come by and I'll give you a single little slush for free. Just one mind.

[Snort.]

Yeah, well. I guess it blows the theory that the Iskaulit is more private right out of the water.

[She is shocked. Shocked.]

[onlyanapple]

[It's a HORROR.]

Yup. Seems they have their fingers in this pot as well. There's a swimming pool one, too. Saw that. Because a swimming pool in space is obviously a great idea.

[namisan]

[...PINGED.]

We can buy a pool?

[Maybe she didn't hear the sarcastic obviously a great idea part.]

[onlyanapple]

[Aww, at least she can be happy about something.]

Yes. Something that will probably kill-slash-flood us all, but yes we can.

[namisan]

[Grin.] They could kill us any number of ways, I'm not too worried.

I promised Takeshi I'd look into building one somehow.

[onlyanapple]

That is very true.

[Oh no, one of his weaknesses. Takeshi. ]

Yeah? Does he really want a pool?

[namisan]

You could say that, yes. [Dryly.] We got to talking about it when I told him I had friends who'd be more comfortable here if we had a place they could actually swim around, so. I figured I could look into it, at least.

[onlyanapple]

[He is a precious child and Crowley adores him. He will never admit this. ]

Huh. Well, looks like you've got an answer on that one, then.

[namisan]

[There seems to be a very long list of things Crowley will never admit to.]

Ahh, I'll have to look at how much it costs. I can't be the only person willing to shell out for a pool, after all.

[If she gets her way she'll pay as little as possible. But. As an aside, definitely marking off the Iskaulit as a possibly safer place to swap info. Ugh. She takes a sip of her alcoholic slushie.]

I guess at least the Atroma are trying to give us things to be entertained by.

[onlyanapple]

[It's enormous, and covers just about everything ever.]

I'm sure there's plenty of people on the Fleet who'd love one.

[He's only be interested if he could lounge on one of those inflatable pool beds. ]

Well, of course. If we're entertained, then they are. Stands to reason.

[namisan]

[I'm pretty sure pool beds are in the cards. How convenient that we land next to a giant shopping mall just after getting the pool, right?]

I was pretty sure they were only entertained if they caused drama at our expense.

[onlyanapple]

[That is just exceptional luck gosh, wow. ]

True. But if we're standing around doing nothing, I doubt we'd make them all that much money. It'd be like watching paint dry.
