And Let Us Gather 'Round [ Video + Action ]
Who: Kirk and The Fine People of the Fleet
Broadcast: Yes
Action: On the Iskaulit, Specifically at the Melting Pot - Note: After the Broadcast
When: After they start heading away from the system
Video
[ Kirk appears on the screen, and probably like many people he looks tired and a bit beaten up. Scratches not yet healed on his face, one even covered with a bandage on his cheek, that sort of drawn look around his eyes after all the sleepless nights and the battles and general horridness. A little to pale, perhaps.
Even so, he gives as warm a smile as he can as he begins to speak. ]
For those of you who might not know, I come from a world called Earth - or at least, one of the versions represented here. On my world, in the country I hail from, we celebrate something known as Thanksgiving roughly around this time of year if I've done my calculations correct. Some people call it Friendsgiving, but it's all the same really.
Essentially, it's a time to a give thanks for the good things in your life, your friends, and your family. In the spirit of that, I've arranged for a gathering at the Melting Pot - a thank you to Jarvis for that. Everyone who wishes to come is welcome.
I just thought we all could use a day, a place, to be together and to just enjoy each other. So I hope to see you there.
Action: The Melting Pot
[ The restaurant is set up to allow as much mingling as possible when people arrive - places to sit, of course, but there's gentle music playing for those who might want to dance and just to give some atmosphere (but not loud enough to stop conversation at all). Food and drink is laid out - things to nibble on rather than the usual feasts associated with a Thanksgiving. Not particularly ideal, but it's what could be managed. Unless, of course, anyone decided to bring something else to add to the spread.
Not a fancy party, to be sure, but it's warm and inviting, which is what Kirk had hoped for. A place for them all to come together and enjoy each other and just be glad they were all there and if not quite completely whole, then, well, able to be there. ]
[ooc: Open mingle! Feel free to create your own starters and do as you like - tis a warm Friendsgiving party for the Fleet! ]

Not common, but it feels they are becoming more so. And I have very serious questions about how that planet has air-to-space defenses, much less could jam our comms as effectively as they did. The natives didn’t seem advanced enough to have that kind of tech, of it was left over know how to upkeep it.
[ He rubbed the back of his neck grimacing. ]
Sorry, I don’t mean to talk business at a party.
And I haven’t even introduced myself have I?
[ He held out his hand to Thor, smiling brightly. ]
James Tiberius Kirk, but you can just call me Jim.
no subject
[Though it's a bit of a sour thought. Thor takes Kirk's hand and shakes it.]
Thor, son of Odin. Well met.
no subject
[ The name brought pause and a raised eyebrow, for obvious reasons. ]
As in the Norse God of Thunder, Thor?
no subject
[No hedging or downplaying here.]
I take it you are from Earth, then?
[It's a guess, since his reputation is known throughout the Nine Realms. But Kirk doesn't seem like he's from the others.]
no subject
An Earth, yes. We have several different versions represented, though I come from one of the more advanced ones - with space travel. As far as I can tell, I'm from the furthest in the future of any Earth - 2263.
[ Whatever realm Thor is from, it isn't one that has been the blessed visage of Thor, or if it has, it has long forgotten. ]
I'm guessing you've been to an Earth before? Safe to assume you made quite an impression on at least one.

[ Kirk didn't outright dismiss this - they were not well aware that there were races far older than them in the universe, so the idea that aliens might, perchance, have come to Earth before was not a farfetched idea. ]
Oh? Are you liking it? The twenty-first century from the histories of my time are... interesting, to say the least. I imagine they must be more so if a god is making his home there.

[ His eyes are slight, clearly intrigued with the nuances of Thor's experience. If he had a tail it would be wagging right about now, such is his resemblance to a golden retriever. ]
no subject
[Untold property damage.]
no subject
Oh, you and me have something in common then! Made quite the impression?
[ He grinned, his tone suggesting a friendly elbow ribbing. ]
