Awright, that should do it far as new folks on board are concerned.

[Kage shifts the cigarette to the other side of his mouth, then just plucks it out as he wipes off his forehead with a rag. It's hot as hell on this deck of machinery. In the background there's the clip-clop of hooves and the slap-slap of bare hands on decking ( Read more... )

... Parsley?

shenghuanzhe July 14 2010, 05:38:00 UTC

Yeah, it's this small green herb. Here they put it on food.

heavyweaponsbot July 14 2010, 05:46:31 UTC

I know what it is. [No, he doesn't.] Why is it appearing in rooms?

shenghuanzhe July 14 2010, 05:51:24 UTC

[Kage ashes his cigarette and winces.]

Hey, man, ship this big, a few things're bound t'go wrong. How're you doin' anyways? Been a while since I heard y'coo my name all sweet.

[Hello, Ironhide, have some sarcasm.]

Full as in... completely full?

[Roll is consider what one could DO with that much parsley.]

shenghuanzhe July 14 2010, 05:50:10 UTC

To the very fuckin' top.

[What couldn't you do with that much parsley?]

kazeyotsutaete July 14 2010, 05:52:58 UTC

Wow... That is a lot of parsley, sir.

[That is some awe there. If Roll gets a room full of parsley she might not tell anyone.]

shenghuanzhe July 14 2010, 05:59:49 UTC

Kiddo, you don't gotta call me sir. You ain't crew and you don't answer to me.

[His tone is a little friendlier.]

Awright?

What's th' system?

shenghuanzhe July 14 2010, 05:49:48 UTC

System's what brings you back from the dead, man.

standardpackage July 14 2010, 05:51:47 UTC

I kinda got that part, but what th' fuck does it gotta do with a parsley?

shenghuanzhe July 14 2010, 05:59:03 UTC

Parsley's been filling up certain rooms lately.

[Kage squints.]

You can't see the connection? What's parsley oil good for?

First Mate Kage?

[Yes, Bryn is addressing him by title to be polite. She's about to make a request so it doesn't seem like a bad idea to start out nicely.]

Could I have a moment of your time?

shenghuanzhe July 14 2010, 06:07:43 UTC

Yeah, no sweat. What's up, girlie?

[Locked to Kage // 30% Unhackable] brynkitten July 14 2010, 06:10:58 UTC

[She locks her post for a measure of privacy.]

I was hoping you could help me. You or whoever on crew would handle my request, ah, regarding room arrangements?

[Oh god, how to phrase it? This feels totally awkward.]

[locked // unhackable] shenghuanzhe July 14 2010, 06:13:01 UTC

Room arrangements? How you mean?

ntjstapwn July 14 2010, 06:04:51 UTC

I'd ask but...

...I guess parsley's a lot better than somethings it could be. Still, I think I'll try for not dying anyway.

shenghuanzhe July 14 2010, 06:08:15 UTC

That's the fuckin' spirit, man. Rah-rah. Bully on you, all that shit.

ntjstapwn July 14 2010, 06:34:35 UTC

You'd think it'd be something everybody'd be behind, though.

shenghuanzhe July 14 2010, 06:39:45 UTC

There was once this really smart, nerdy type chick on board. She was a psychologist or whatever, and she told me that everyone's got an urge for life and an urge for death. Iroz and Zanatos or somethin'.

[He means 'Eros' and 'Thanatos', the twin Life and Death urges in the human psyche.]
