First Breath
1. Kitchen
[The Marsiva had become boring after the first day of having absolutely nothing to do. He'd spent the time trying to understand what was going on, and then decided napping was probably the best thing since he was stuck anyway. Which is why he was in the middle of a trance-like nap when the Atroma jingle went off and he exploded onto the First Breath's kitchen with confetti and questionable looking chocolate pudding cups.
Taako blinked, then dusted the confetti off his clothes and wizard's hat. The first thing he saw was the sad state of this kitchen, and Taako put his hands on his hips with a sigh.]
Is this seriously what they want me to work with?
2. Cargo: Salvage
[After settling into the crew, Taako immediately went out salvaging. Something about that seemed to be the right thing to do, so he is dragging bits of metal sheeting, wires, robot parts, and sacks full of gears and pieces into the cargo hold. The planet is basically made for looting, so he's doing his level best to loot the shit out of it. He also has a Mage Hand - an invisible force - carrying several lush looking throw pillows trimmed in various colored fringe and blankets.
When he comes onto the ship, when he sees someone in here, he immediately motions to them.]
You, person whose name I totally remember, go grab the rest of this, hm? I'm not exactly the brawn type.

Planetside
1. Shopping
[You cannot expect Taako to go to a world of literal shopping and not come back with all the craziest shit. But sadly, he does not have a lot of money since he is recently arrived and was not part of this cargo haul that apparently got some people money and others not so much. Which means Taako has to do what Taako does best and improvise.
And he's doing a goddamn God Tier job at it. He's getting new outfits pieced together from clothing crates lost to the dumps, he's getting new throw pillows, blankets, random knick-knacks, and he's trying to find some goddamn weapons just because how bitchin' would it be to roll around the galaxy with a pair of machine guns strapped to his back? Totally, that's how much.
But he still has no money, so he'll slide over to the closest person in the same store as him and smile.]
Hey there, thug, you wanna help me with something?
2. Arena - Locked to Lup
[He could fight here, but why go through the effort? It's so much easier to wait until he sees a good bet and then toss as much of the Charmed credit he's earned so far straight into it. If he loses? Oh well. If he wins? Hell yeah.
So the second he sees Lup enter the arena, he knows exactly what to do. He bets every single credit he's earned so far on her winning. He highly doubts anyone here could conquer her level of spellcasting and the utter destruction he has a feeling she's capable of doing. Most people here relied on melee combat and, well, wizards are made for smashing from afar. This is also a good way to check what she's capable of and she did not disappoint.
Once the battle is over, he waits down by the fighters' exit, leaning up against the wall with a pocket full of credits.]
Nice job, Destructo.

Nice job, Destructo.
no subject
Might as well let someone get what they want out of this junkstore.
no subject
Plus if he actually wanted to purchase something that would be a problem]
Still, it is appreciated. You are currently redoing the kitchen or your ship?
[If in the course of their conversation Taako has indicated one of the items he had been looking at possibly stealing, Ulaz is going to step in that direction to look at it]
no subject
He'd wanted to take some new pans, heavy bottomed and older, but good material. They would have made good pans again if Taako got his hands on them, thanks to his transmutation skills.]
Both, technically. I'm saving salvage and scrap for the ship, kitchen items for me because the ship kitchen? That thing is pathetically understocked and unprepared.
no subject
Yes, I remember the trouble Biffy had redoing the Blameless's kitchen... as well as decorating. I don't think I've seen someone put so much effort into creating color schemes on a ship before.
[After a moment, Ulaz glanced back at Taako. Resigning himself that he should be... neighborly at least, he picked up the remaining pans in the haphazard set and took them over to the shop owner. He was pretty good at bargaining, if only because people didn't want to deal with him too long.
Once the transaction was done, he held the pans out to Taako. For you. Now you don't have to steal them]
no subject
[What a name. Ulaz, Biffy - what next? Taako hides his laughter as Ulaz looks over the pans he was trying to steal earlier, curious as to what he's doing. ]
And not putting effort into your domain is just unprofessional. Delicious food deserves a beautiful space to be eaten in.
[Which is why Taako had spent so much time and effort transmuting the First Breath's interior. As Ulaz moves off with the pans, Taako's interest is piqued. He almost follows him, but instead hangs back while the transaction goes on to stick a silver spoon in his bag. When Ulaz returns, he's standing there, arms crossed until the pans are held out.]
.... You're just giving them to me?
no subject
[He probably shouldn't encourage it, but he is preventing Taako from stealing at least these]
no subject
Eh.]
Gotta have pride in where we work, even if it's a total shithole of a situation. A shituation if you like. I'm not going to let my pride as a chef die just because of this dump.
[He takes the pans cautiously, giving them a lookover before putting them in his bag.]
So yeah...thanks?
no subject
[A pause]
I'm probably not going to use that word.
[Shituation]
no subject
[Come on, Ulaz! Oolong? U-Haul! Something like that.]
no subject
[Yes, it fits... but probably still not going to do]
no subject
[He's snickering to himself now. He's going to use that one in the future again.]
no subject
It might be appropriate. But it's not really my sort of terminology.
no subject
no subject
[Since the fleet doesn't stay in place]
It could be considered that. A shituation.
[There he said it. Probably never will again]
no subject
Taako shoots from finger guns right at Ulaz with a wink and a smile.]
Now you're gettin' it!
[But he now has his pans and a stolen silver spoon, so? He turns the finger guns into a salute.]
I guess I owe you one for the pans, so you get one free dessert from Taako sometime. You just let me know when you want it and I'll whip somethin' up.
no subject
I should check in to see what items they have in the other room. It was good meeting you.
no subject
[And since there's apparently a kitchen upgrade available, he's going to spending all the money he has on that. There are lot of interesting augments, but he isn't sure how much he wants to mess with himself here. Even if the idea of being wreathed in flame is pretty awesome.]
But sure sure, go have fun digging around behind the curtain, Oolong.
[He gives a salute and slings the bag with the pans over his shoulder, heading out the door.]
