One Fish, Two Fish, Blue Fish Mingle

[heroofcocoon]

Who: The crew of the SS Blue Fish and friends
Broadcast: Not necessarily?
Action: On the lovely Blue Fish
When: Month of October

[With the tragedy of Lyuku and the entire Eyuzi system behind the Fleet, the crew of the Blue Fish and their friends are now settling into a new routine while they drift along in the relative safety of space.

As one of the few ships that didn't suffer a loss of crew during their little excursion, the crew can safely go about their duties, unless something attacks that is.]

Comments

[heroofcocoon]

Again, not saying you're not. But, I have a job and there are certain expectations that come along with it. Now, if you can make that easier, I'm all for that.

[Ask him about his friends from home one day, Dorian.]

I know we're all new here, but there's nothing worse than a Farron woman who is pissed. [He rubs his jaw in phantom pain.] I'd rather be hit by a berserk Jaggernaut.

[fantachetic]

Is that a fact? Well, if I happen to come across one, I will send them your way.

[heroofcocoon]

What? The Farron woman or the Jaggernaut? Because there's a Farron on board this ship right now.

[And he's not with her right now because there is such a thing as personal space. Possibly.]

Can't miss her.

[fantachetic]

I can't say that I've had the pleasure of meeting either.

[heroofcocoon]

Look, you're not missing anything with the Jaggernaut. Honestly.

[Dorian, you do not want to tackle the stupid machine.]

As for Serah, I'm pretty sure she's one of the communication officers here. I think. Never met the other one.

[fantachetic]

As it happens, you just have. Dorian of House Pavus, most recently of the SS Blue Fish. How do you do?

[heroofcocoon]

Convenient. Snow Villiers. Guess that means I'll be seeing you more often if you work so close with her.

[Not a terrible fate, right?]

Have you been here long?

[fantachetic]

Not terribly long. Settling in quite nicely, all things considered. I've a few complaints about the cold, however.

[heroofcocoon]

Yeah, the cold still gets to me, despite the name. I grew up in a seaside town, so not the biggest fan of the weather up here either.

[Too much of a good thing and all that.]

[fantachetic]

I've grown accustomed to warmer climates, anything less is disappointing and miserable.

[ At the very least, it gives him something to complain about. ]

[heroofcocoon]

You can get used to anything, but I found that just because I'm used to something doesn't mean I like it.

[Snow is used to the cold to a point at this point. Being a l'Cie so long means that he's had to call on his magic more than once to fight off monsters from the Chaos and roaming around the surface in general.]

Bet if Yuj was here, he'd take it as an opportunity to try and find or make clothes that kept him warm and look good at the same time.

[fantachetic]

I take it Yuj is someone you're familiar with back home?

[ Get ready, Snow. Dorian will absolutely complain about the cold whenever it suits his fancy. ]

[heroofcocoon]

Yeah.

[And there's a floodgate he hasn't opened in centuries...

And when he speaks, his voice is rough for a second.]

He was a kid that sort of fell in with my friends and I. Loved fashion. Pretty good shot with a gun too.

[fantachetic]

Was? My apologies. If you wish to not talk about it, I won't pry any further.

[ There are still things he doesn't want to talk about, especially those things that only his closest confidants know. ]

[heroofcocoon]

It was a long time ago. And I brought it up.

[Even still, given the option to talk or not talk about it is something he hasn't had for a while.]

I think he'd like the mustache you've got. He never could get any facial hair to grow.

[fantachetic]

It's a natural talent some possess, I will admit.

[ He is very proud of his mustache. Then again, he looks like an actual child without it. ]

[heroofcocoon]

[Snow reaches up to rub at his chin and the strap of hair that rests expertly there.]

Some of us have to take what we can get to grow though.

[fantachetic]

Yes, that may be true, but you don't wear it badly, either. [ Just saying. ]

[heroofcocoon]

[That earns him what might almost be an actual smile from Snow for the first time in years... centuries that he truly means.]

Perhaps you can tell that to your work partner. She's on me to shave again.

[fantachetic]

I believe I shall. A man is only as good as his facial hair, naturally.
