GOLDSTONE OCTOBER MINGLE

Who: Goldstoners and visitors and lurkers, oh my!
Broadcast: In prompts maybe
Action: Goldstone
When: October

[There have been some mysterious energy drains registering not only on the sensors but in the way the lights seem to dim for a few moments before returning to their normal strength. Maybe a non-essential computer terminal goes dark and needs to be rebooted. It's not causing any damage, but it is mysterious, no?

If you investigate through some special ability or using the ship's diagnostic tools you'll probably come to the conclusion that the energy is funneling into sleeping crewmate, Mon-El's, room and actually right into Mon-El himself. Alien cells are weird, guys.

It only lasts a day or two before he's awake and leaving the ship's energy where it belongs!

And enough about Mon-El, we have a new crewmate (Alphy) and a dead crewmate (Okita). These are exciting times!]

I know you're not. You're a beautiful, wonderful, talented terror at worst.

Only sometimes!

[He leans in for a kiss.] What else did I miss out on?

Well, the planet was okay before everything happened.

Yeah? Did you get out and enjoy yourself?

A bit.

Good. I'm glad you weren't just pining for me the whole time. [He gives her a playful little smile.]

Who would do that? Pining isn't very becoming.

[ she says, as if she didn't do that ]

I don't know. I think you could have a cute pining face. Let me see what it would look like.

It's just my face. No pining needed.

I like your face.

[ she kisses him ]

I like yours too.

Even if it's a little fuzzy. Maybe even more.

[He reaches up to touch his face.] Time for a heat vision shave?

[ she touches it too ]

I just said i liked it.

Yeah? Well, I could keep it for awhile.

Maybe just a bit.

[ she rubs his cheek ]

Should we have a code word for when it's time for a shave?

Well, you can do it whenever you want.
