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.]

Eithan Paine | OTA

[deviances]

► A. New pets??
[ He really didn't mean for this to happen. But at some point during evacuation, a bunch of new friends decided to hitch a ride in his coat. So, well, here they are now.

Eithan's sitting on top of a crate in the cargo bay, with an apple and a knife, cutting the fruit into little bite-sized pieces. And that's because around him are five brightly-colored lizards! Two small, rainbow-speckled ones are also chilling on the crate, two slightly larger rainbow-speckled ones are lounging on the floor in front of him, and one tiny one that is probably just a baby is actually latched onto the side of the crate, hanging out all vertical-like. No big deal, you know.

Erm, come say hi? ]


B. Wandering Around
[ Eithan gets around the ship quite a bit. Maybe you'll catch him in his room with the door open, all inviting-like, either idly playing or actively practicing with his guitar.

You might happen to see him in the kitchen. When he's not drinking cup #329048284209 of coffee for the day, you could see him making a face at a blood-red pill in the palm of his hand before he actually pops the damn thing in his mouth - but not without a little bit of whining, of course.

Sometimes, if you swing by the cargo bay after most other people have gone to bed, you'll find him wide awake... and holding a palm-sized ball of volatile, wildly crackling fire in each hand. Sure, it probably looks and sounds alarming, especially at first - but stick around long enough and you'll see him bending the flames into swirls and shapes in the air in front of him. ]

Bridge
[ Dorian is still rather new to the ship, so it's still a journey becoming familiar with everything. As the new communications officer, it's a post he's taking rather seriously. He's rather taken with the comm array, and he can be found most days tinkering with it and learning all the ins and outs. How long has he been there this time? It's hard to say since the blanket of stars is the only thing out the window. Who even pays attention to time? Come pull him away from his seat or keep him company. ]

Kitchen
[ He's not particularly fond of the machine that dispenses what is supposedly food, and even less so the drink machine with its synthetic tastes, but the tea will do if he warms it up. Dorian can be found sitting at the table with his nose in a book (thank you ever so much for that, Hermione), occasionally stopping to take notes with his communicator. ]

A. Broadcast - Video

[Hello Blue Fish! Your new first mate sends out a broadcast to the crew early on in the month, after they've left Lyuku (and while she's still bedridden).]

Hello everyone. Riona here. Now that we're drifting and we're all more or less stuck on the ship, I wanted to address a few things.

Firstly, I'm glad everyone made it back in one piece from the planet. Which might sound slightly hypocritical, seeing as I'm bedridden thanks to my own misadventures, but I technically came back in one piece and alive, so close enough.

Next, ship finances. As you may have noticed, we keep actual food stocked in the refrigerator and pantry. No gel monstrosities in this kitchen. However, food can be a little expensive, especially when you're feeding a lot of people. In the past, everyone contributed a small amount of credits each month to an account designated solely for the ship. That money was used for ship maintenance and repair, and also food for everyone. With how many of us are now on the ship, I think it's time to reinstate that. I'm maintaining the finances, so I'll handle collecting and maintaining the account. We'd be asking for [Insert a small contribution amount that hopefully wouldn't break the bank for anyone.] If anyone has difficulty contributing, you can speak with me about it. I'll hold off reinstating it until next month, since a lot of you are still new and probably don't have much in the way of credits yet. This isn't a requirement and I'm not gonna kick down your door for the money, but just remember it goes towards something that benefits us all. And you don't have to eat gel.

With that said, you may have also noticed the freezers we have tucked away behind the kitchen. Those are meat freezers. Yes, actual meat. Right now, though, our stores are a little... low. I would avoid using meat if necessary until it can be restocked. [She smiles wryly.] You don't want to be on the ship if that stock runs out. [No one wants to see Sokka go through meat withdrawal.]

And lastly, door art! Feel free to paint or decorate the doors to your room as you see fit. It's a bit of a long standing tradition on the ship, and it helps break up all this monotonous, monochrome metal.

If anyone has any questions, feel free to message me. I'm stuck in my room, so also feel free to visit if you'd like.


B. Action

[As stated in her broadcast, Riona's bedridden for most of the drifting week. Towards the middle of the month, though, she'll start slowly walking around and be seen around the ship. Her arm's in a sling, still broken, but her back wound is healing and making it easier to walk.

Still, she moves gingerly and not all that fast. She spends most of her time either in the kitchen making food - and always offering whatever she's making - or on the bridge, piloting the ship to... well, wherever the Atroma feels like taking them.]

Sokka | OTA

[alwayscomeback]

[Engine room]

[Sokka can be found playing around in here- the sound of occasional clanging and banging as he works on the engine, keeping her purring like a kitten. He might even occasionally stop to jot down notes on blueprints, for increasingly insane inventions. Hopefully, most of them won't come to fruition. No one needs an automatic pancake tosser. Absolutely no one. ]


[Cargo Hold]

[After the upgrades have come through, the crew may have noticed their captain looks a little older. Not much of course, but ageing a year in a night is sure noticeable enough. He occasionally pokes at the games here - enjoying his free-play privileges with the pinball machine. Every now and again, though, he moves over to look at the shapeless mass of metal that is totally a statue of Suki, staring at 'her' for a while, before restlessly going back to playing around. ]

OTA | Princess Looma (10/12)

[tough_love]

[While she was still feeling considerably worse for wear, Looma was at least beginning to recover enough that moving around wasn't a complete chore. She'd gone looking for Sokka at his forge aboard the Iskaulit without success, so naturally the next step was to check his ship.

She probably could have called first, but...well, he'd been on hers, so clearly she was owed a turn, right? Besides, it might prove a valuable way to learn more about him the differences between the ships in the fleet!

So, for everyone aboard, now there were two giants roaming around the ship. But at least the massive armor-clad princess was trying her best to behave herself- she might not have been able to do much about the noise that came with wandering around the ship, but she was keeping all four hands to herself and abiding by a general "look, don't touch" policy.]
