[appletart]

Who: SS Wonderduck crew and any visitors!
Broadcast: If you want!
Action: On the SS Wonderduck, or wherever threads happen to go!
When: Throughout the month of September! Includes this system, drift period, and next system. Go wild!

[ Heeeey Wonderducks! We have suspicious cargo in the hold! Wanna crack it open? Or would you rather make sure no one touches it? (Good luck...)

Also there might be pirates attempting to board at some point. Probably won't get far - we've got some pretty darn resourceful people on our ship, after all~ ]

[oh dear. it's obvious that the broadcast is unintended, but now that it's out there, Ochako can't just ignore it.]

Um... Escha... are you okay...?

[ Escha wasn't expecting to be overheard, and squeaks a bit in surprise! There's some shuffling noises, then the video clicks on - her eyes are red-rimmed, and she sniffles again, but she does attempt a small smile. ]

Ahh, s-sorry! Hello! I'm... [ Yep, nope, smile's gone. She shakes her head. ] My friend, Percy... he's gone. He got sent home. H-He wrote me a letter in case it ever happened, and I read it, a-and...

[ She trails off, unable to finish, since the waterworks start back up. ]

[willynilly]

[Oh nooo that's just as bad as she'd expected.]

I'm so sorry! It's hard every time that happens... can I do anything for you? Oh, maybe bring you some sweets, keep you company? It's better to not be alone!

[appletart]

[ She hesitates, sniffling, then nods. ]

Company would be nice, if you really don't mind? [ She rubs at her eyes. ] I can make us some tea, if you want!

[willynilly]

I don't mind at all! I'll be right over, sit tight! And tea would go really great with the cakes I've got.

[Time for a scrublord tea ceremony, or something.]

And ooh, do you like animals? I've got a couple that give good cuddles!

[appletart]

[ Scrublord tea ceremony! Works for her.

She nods again, already moving to get up to make the tea, and grateful for having something to focus on for the time being. Ochako is such a good friend...! If she's not careful she might start crying about that, too jfdksl ]

I like animals, yes! Though I hope they won't mind being cuddled and maybe cried on... [ At least she's honest? ]
