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! ]

His eyebrows go up at the apology, and he laughs a bit, waving it off.]
It's no trouble. I am used to this sort of talk! [He takes Shiro's hand without a second thought, shaking it firmly.] I am Thor, son of Odin. Security on the Blue Fish. It's good to meet you, Shiro.
no subject
[Because "used to this sort of talk" doesn't sound promising at all, yet Shiro understands. The man laughs and takes it well, though, and that makes him glad - the evening is far from ruined!
And now for the question Thor is probably tired of hearing. Sorry, man!]
Nice to meet you too. Named after the god of thunder? [Shiro has seen plenty of things by now and not much can surprise him anymore, but meeting real gods is still not in that resume.] The Blue Fish - with Sokka and Billy. You're in good hands.
no subject
Not named after - I am the God of Thunder. [At least his smile is pretty disarming. He barrels on with the conversation like it was nothing more odd than talking about the weather.] Yes, I quite like the Blue Fish so far. They're good people there. What's the Blameless like?
no subject
...wow. A real god. I suppose not even real gods are safe from Atroma, huh? [That's perfectly fine. Shiro can appreciate a man that can be as shrug-y as he can be some times.] Glad to hear that. The Blameless is... let's call it cozy. I heard is was a late addition to the Fleet when they used to have more people, but we aren't very lucky when it comes to keeping crew nowadays. But it's become my ship, you know.
[No, Shiro, not everyone is a nerd astronaut like you.]
no subject
[Which is frustrating. Even the exceptional ways Asgardians move between worlds might be usurped by whatever the Atroma have done to get him here. Since Heimdall can't call him back, he does suspect something powerful is at work.]
Yes, I think I do. A place becomes homely after a while, if you enjoy the people you live with.
no subject
[The Interceptors were quite sure of that, at least, and Shiro has to wonder if their escape was really worth it in the end. He takes another sip of his drink before speaking again, glad to know Thor understands.]
Couldn't agree more. My team from home is here too, even if they aren't all in the same ship with me, and that helps a lot, too. Have you found anyone you know?
