Meanwhile on the loveboat (mingle log)

[destinyembrace]

Who: Crew of the Blue Fish, anyone who's been invited, and any visitors! So basically everyone
Broadcast: Nope
Action: On the Blue Fish, mostly probably in the kitchen and the mess hall because PARTY
When: Today~

[If there's anything this freaking ship loves, it's food. Somehow, a dinner got planned to welcome the new member. And then other people got invited. And then the dinner pretty much turned into a party with a lot of food. Needless to say, Kairi has been very busy preparing food all the day for this.

There's a lot of meat, per the captain's request. But there's also veggies, some fruit, pasta, and even brownies! There are also two pizza pies. Basically, Kairi just cooked a bunch of food and hoped it would be enough, as she had no idea how many people were coming.

SO DIG IN, BLUE FISH AND GUESTS. Also mingle and be social and all that jazz!]

Mm! Kairi's a pretty good cook! She told me this was the biggest meal she's ever made.

[His grin gets a bit bigger] Ah, yes! I'm a pretty big eater.

[moonbeams]

Waah.... I bet it took ages! I'll have to thank her. She's already been so nice to me. [She's got a super great impression of Kairi at this point, the food is just a bonus.]

Hehe, Mama scolds me sometimes, but if it tastes good I can't help it! It kind of felt like home, with everything tasting so good... [The last words she speaks are considerably more somber than before, but she still manages a smile.]

I'm Usagi, by the way.

[save_the_souls]

Mm, she's very kind! I've been trying to think of something nice to do for her. [Since man after all this she deserves it]

Ha- I feel there's nothing wrong with enjoying good tasting food! [And aw, he can pick up on that little bit of somberness. Homesickness, he would guess. He smiles kindly at her]

Usagi? Ah- then you must be our new crewmate. I'm Allen. Welcome aboard.

[moonbeams]

Hehe, it's nice to meet you Allen! [She pauses, then sort of half scoot shuffles to look at Allen closer. The tattoo (or whatever it is, as far as she knows) isn't beyond her notice, and for a moment her blue eyes watch him carefully. She's building up to ask a question, even as she realizes it's a little rude.]


....Are you American?

[save_the_souls]

[And now...he's getting stared at. Okay, this is probably fair considering he was staring at her. Though still, considering how much people stare at him- it's slightly uncomfortable.]

[The question she asks however, totally throws him]

Huh?

[What? How would she even reach that conclusion?]

No, I'm British.

[moonbeams]

[British... she nods before smiling just slightly apologetically. Sorry if she was rude.] Ohhh... humm... It's still English right? I'm kind of bad at that subject in school.

[She grins though.] It's a neat name though!

[save_the_souls]

[..............]

Well, England is in Britain, so yes. It is still English.

[moonbeams]

[That makes sense. Usagi doesn't really notice the sass that's accompanied the words. Or she just doesn't acknowledge it. One of the two. She nods.]

What's it like where you're from? I've only seen some stuff on movies at home, but it's mostly american movies... [So, not England or Britain at large -- or she can't tell the difference.] It's all pretty different from Japan at least.

[save_the_souls]

[Not noticing the sass is probably for the best really. And how does one answer that question really...?]

It's pretty cloudy and rainy. I stay mostly in the countryside, so that was nice- pretty peaceful.

What about you? What's it like where you're from?

[moonbeams]

Hehe, I bet it's really pretty...

[She thinks for a moment how to best answer Allen's question, her chin coming to rest on the heels of her hands.]

Hummm... I live in Tokyo so it's pretty busy! There are people and buildings everywhere so sometimes it's really crowded. But there's lots to do! Hehe, my friends and I have an arcade we go to. Tokyo Tower is the prettiest at night, when it's all lit up.
