driftfleet | Twin Roses July Mingle

_{[Yuri was minding his own business in the common room. He'd found some cardboard to fold up under one of the legs and under the back part of the seat cushion. This chair needed new springs and new upholstery... and new everything else. It was the one that sank the least when he sat in it, though. He was playing solitaire on his communicator minding his own business when he glanced up. Something small had moved and briefly, he wondered if it was Chuuya using his telekinesis again.

But when he looked up it was not a floating object at all. It was a strange furry looking creature that seemed to crawl out of the couch.

Yuri blinked at it. It seemed to be still... then it darted along the side of the couch like a roach. Suddenly he stood from his chair and looked behind him, he lifted the chair cushion to spot another white fluff scurrying away under the cardboard. He froze.]}

What are they?? Do they live in the furniture? _{[The first one on the couch moves again and he flinches. He'll be trying to corner that one with two pieces of cardboard and if anyone finds him it will be when he's just about to pick the white thing up and it crawls up his arm. He shrieks and flails to get it off.]}

[Guess who's basically hiding out in her room? This lady. Something about the knowledge that people may have gone trawling through her head, because she sure as hell went trawling through a lot of yours.

(aka: she probably isn't around much at all, but if you need to speak to her for whatever reason, you can find her in her room.)]

A. Kitchen

[First thing Vash wants to do once they're back onto the ship is to go through the notes he's set aside from the last calibrations. If someone tries to read over his shoulder they may be surprised to see Vash looking over what appears to be gibberish. Possibly because it's coded.

He's also writing down gibberish notes that he's currently translating from what he has written down on his arms. It's not much, but he's trying to remember as much as he can. Coding it may be going too far, but Vash can be paranoid when he wants to be. He promises to collect the papers spread all over the kitchen table once he's done.]

B. Around the ship

[Once what he was able to write down about the glitch he saw and he's had time to look everything over he decides to blow off some steam. Someone got a toy dart gun in his gift basket!

Watch out for darts suddenly sticking to whatever object you might be holding. Or maybe even your forehead.] Reach for the sky!

[Except Makie. Makie will be treated like a lady and only get just a cheesy smile and the silly one liner.]

[Everyone's got baskets! Nice baskets! Hurray hurray! Or at least that's how it should be, right?

No, not for Chuuya. You see, the nicer items of his basket were replaced by more, uh, less than pleasant items. His basket in particular contains coffee grounds, Camellia seeds, and gauze, however his seed packet was opened? With some seeds missing?!

His basket also includes a coffee mug, however it is... placed... somewhere high and behind other things. So who is even aware of it's existence?! A mystery!]

What is this shit?! Is this some kind of joke?!

[And, to top it all off, the hat he was wearing went missing. Why always the hat?!]

Who took my hat?! VASH!

[Well, he's on the same ship as Vash, so he would blame it on him first! Naturally!]

WHATEVER IT IS I DIDN'T DO IT!!!!!

Probably.

[Comes a shout from down the hall.]

It was you!

[Probably. But he's gonna go with it because damn it Vash!]

You better fess up or I'll find something else of yours to break!

Lounge

[Sorry if he's taking up too much space, books spread out slightly and notes being scribbled in a notebook. There are several parts scratched out already but a lot of it is magical theory for those that understand.

Occasionally, he twists himself into positions that seem uncomfortable just to double check something. All the while being grateful to have found some useful books in the water temple.]

Sorry, I'll move things if you need space. [He comments if you come near.]

[Kitchen]

[He's at least learned to take breaks from his studying and work to eat and relax. This time, he's not getting his face drawn on. The 'food' makes him want to put a bit aside to stock Twin Roses a bit.

Or maybe they can all start a fund for each system. That's an idea he could raise...]

[wildcard]

[Find him somewhere else on the ship? He's a comms augment.]

But I haven't even left the kitchen since we came back! [Yes, still shouting across the ship rather than sensibly walking over to discuss things like an adult.]

Can I at least know what I'm being blamed for?

You know exactly why!

[Also shouting across the ship rather than go over there to his face!! Like he should!! Because he's just as mature! And if Vash knows exactly why then Chuuya shouldn't have to tell him, right? And yet, Chuuya is telling him anyway. You know. In case he needs a refresher on the thing he totally did, as far as Chuuya is concerned.]

YOU TOOK MY HAT! And put gross stuff in this basket!

[Hell yeahhhh he's gotta take a moment to enjoy the lounge room. For all the talk he does about working hard all the time, he did enjoy taking the time to sit and relax quietly, preferably with a glass of wine.

In fact, he was doing just that - going over to sit and relax at the lounge with a glass of wine!]

Huh? You're good.

[Meaning he isn't bothered with the amount of space Khadgar was taking up.]

What is all this?

What are you doing?

[Listen, if you thought you were gonna get Chuuya with one of those darts, you got another thing coming! Like... Chuuya stopping the dart with a hand before it can hit him, and sending it right back at ya, Vash!]

You should know better than to play these games with me!

[This. This is actually pretty funny, so Chuuya watches for a little while for the entertainment factor.]

You'd probably get it off easier if you just relax.

[He looks unsure for a moment, before he seems reassured that the space he's taking up really is alright, then he sets his quill down carefully and brushes his hands at his robes.]

Magical theories, techniques. I promised I'd help a couple people break a curse.

[But it's clearly outside his skillset if he's studying so diligently. It makes him wish Antonidas was here. Even if he and the Archmage failed to see eye-to-eye, he doesn't think he'd turn his back on helping people who need magical help.]

Ah? You can do that?

[Or, well, seems like that's what Khadgar is trying to figure out. In any case, Chuuya is intrigued.]

That's very interesting. Have you done something like this before?

In theory, I can? I've never had to deal with curses before though, no, so I'm trying to find anything I can.

[The problem with running away from the mages that were raising him.]

What?! No I didn't! I wouldn't have time to do any of that! BESIDES that, our hosts rarely give us GOOD gifts so those gross things are probably their doing!

_{[Yuri was trying to get the weird white furry things off himself, flailing and swinging them off but they were sticky and they seemed to love crawling on his body. What did they want, food? Warmth? To freak him out??? He had found these white bunny looking things the size and shape of soap bars in the couch and they latched on.

He wasn't minding where he was going as he tried to pull a particularly stubborn one off his shoulder. Then it was gone, a dart stabbed the thing and it flopped off him. He gasped. Who-- where had it-- oh god were there more darts? He looked up.]}

Vash?? You saved me. Oh geez... that was so awful.

Huh?? Chuya h-help me, get it off!! GAH-- _{[It was crawling up into his hoodie.]}

Noooo no no no get it away!!

_{[Enjoy him flailing around like a mad man. He tried to strip his hoodie off. It just bunched up around him and didn't come off.]}

_{[He's been running around the ship like a food trying to get some of the furry vermin from the lounge off himself. He was exhausted but pest free now. So he came to the kitchen to get some water and maybe some comfort food if it existed. He noticed the newcomer though.]}

Oh. Hello. Are you... I don't think we've met. I'm Yuri.

Yuri.

[Khadgar glances over to him with a smile.]

I don't think we have. I'm Khadgar. [He steps away from the available 'food' and offers his hand.] I'm sorry we haven't met until now. I get caught up in things sometimes.

Khadgar. Have you been here long? _{[He shakes his hand and smiles.]}

Oh yeah, what kind of things? Fun things? I get so bored around this ship looking for things to do. I try to build up credits so we can open an ice skating rink soon but that's slow going.

Not too long? [Hang on, let him think.] Maybe six or so months now? I was on the Wind Rose when I first got here, then we merged with Three Twins.

Studying usually, visiting other ships that I have friends on. Or on the Iskaulit. I visit the planets whenever we stop. [Ice skating?] On the Iskaulit?

Longer than me. I've been here a couple months now, I think.

This ship merged? What does that mean, did the crew join together on a new ship? Ooh, sorry... I am still pretty new to this stuff.

Yeah, I want to visit a planet. People keep talking about it. I wonder what that will be like... and yes. My fiancee, Victor, and I are competitive figure skaters. We want to get a rink on the Iskaulit if we can. It seems like a huge undertaking though.

[A hand to his chin and a thoughtful look on his face as he nods.]

So... is it magic that you can do? Or is this more of a science project of sorts?

[Shakes a fist angrily!]

I don't believe you! Liar! You're a liar! I bet there's always time for your tricks!
