do the mingle shuffle!

[carreau]

Who: you! me! everyone! it's like a really big party!
Broadcast: if you want!
Action: see above!
When: right now!!!

[ So the weekly shuffle has happened. We got new captains, people who have mysteriously disappeared-- I mean, who have never existed, and new people aboard the ships. That's exciting! Wow! ]

[ New people, get acquainted with your ships? Press all the buttons? Introduce yourself like a polite individual? Old people, keep aging? Welcome them with open arms and confetti? Punch the person who just opened the door while you were in the shower??? ]

[ Who knows! It's a mingle post! Don't ask me!]

[ (But seriously, how bout those people who never existed, huh.) ]

We lost someone on the SS Wonderduck. Woman named Jilly I think?

I haven't looked through the crew quarters for her belongings yet.

[ he almost asks 'you didn't know her?', but thinks better of it. ]

Did you get anyone in?

[wilder]

Uh- hold on.

[limitstorm]

You didn't notice? I thought they were beamed in.

[wilder]

They do. I just-

Well, I just got comfortable in this chair.

[limitstorm]

[ this is riku laughing ]

You're serious, aren't you?

voice

[wilder]

[Aw yeah.]

Very serious! Getting just the right comfortable spot on these chairs is no laughing matter!

[limitstorm]

[ what a dork. ]

Alright, alright. So you're still at the same number... and since you're so comfortable, you probably don't know what that new person does.

[wilder]

Nah, not yet. Though I hope it's a cook. That'd be nice to have.

[limitstorm]

Yeah, it would be. Maybe they'd have a clue about how to use this protein stuff.

[wilder]

...I don't know, that might take a miracle worker.

[He's so glad he doesn't require food. That stuff is just gross.]

[limitstorm]

Let me hope.

[ grumble. ]

I bought some food for the crew on the waystation, so there's something to eat besides that, but... [ dubious sound. ]

[wilder]

You mean...those weird root vegetable thingies and questionable meat?

[limitstorm]

No one's sick or died yet, so I guess space root stew was a success.

[wilder]

Is...that usually how you grade your dishes? Because I think that says more about your cooking than the ingredients.

[limitstorm]

[ hey ]

I'm good at cooking!

[ a huff. ]

It's how I grade what I cook when I have no clue what I'm dealing with. Usually I can tell, but this is... space stuff.

[wilder]

[He snickers a little]

Alright, alright - sorry to offend!

[limitstorm]

[ mumble; ]

I'm not offended... just correcting you.
