Natural Mother [Open]
Within a school, despite the bad reputation for what is actually served there, cafeterias are a popular gathering place for almost all students, for Transmigration Nine however, this is not the case. In fact, this cafeteria had an even worse reputation for what was dispensed here and due the the fact the crew was not contained to a school and had other places they could freely be, they felt no need to force themselves to sit infront of a pile of grey, unidentifiable slop and chat when they had their own rooms, or better yet, a bar to kill their free time at.
Yet, this was where Diana could be found, sat on an empty table (though, to be fair, the vast majority of the tables were empty), with a trey of the glop sat infront of her, with two spoons sticking out of it. Her table seemed to have been picked at random, yes, it was close to the food dispenser, but not as close as it could be, and neither in the center or right at the sides.
Despite this, it would not be her singularity (which she seemed rather at ease with) that would draw your attention to her, nor her very attractive appearance.
No. Instead it would be that strange, croaking noise coming from her hands that are resting upon the table.
Diana takes one of her hands away to pick up one of the spoons, and sheltered underneath the remaining hand there's very young baby bird. Just hatched it seems. Rather ugly looking thing to be honest. All pink and skinny, with a neck that seems like it'll snap any second, and with no feathers whatsoever, just stubby little fleshy appendages that are supposed to grow into wings someday.
Its eyes aren't open, there's just these grey slabs where the eyes should be and lined with yellow beak is a gaping red mouth (the only colourful part of the creature really) which opens and shut periodically as it makes the croaking cry for food.
The only break between those cries is when Diana spoons some of the gray slop and presses it into the raw read hole, forcing the tiny creature to gulp down the strange sustenance before resuming its demands.
It's rather jarring, seeing this gross but fragile looking creature manhandled by such a pretty young girl. And just to add to the oddness of it all, piled next to the hatchling are some perfectly beautiful looking shards of an egg, that catch the light in just the most amazing way.

"Bird food is for adult birds. When they're little and not much use for more than fox bait like this, their parents sick up their food for 'em. Straight into their noise holes." Diana wrinkled her nose and looked at the baby bird in annoyance, who at that moment had decided to demonstrate his 'noise hole', Diana forcefully gagged him with more food.
"Gross I know, but what else are you going do when you've got no teeth and can't do anything but sit there and look ugly?"
She gave a half-hearted shrug. "Can't see we he can't have this stuff. It's free and packed with load of nutritional things. I eat it, so can he." Despite her appearance, Diana was most definitely not stuck up when it came to food.
no subject
Not that there was anything wrong with that. Diana looked to care enough about the bird that she was going to make sure it lived.
"Poor bird. But while I can't do anything for it, I can at least get you something to eat. You know I have a cafe now, right?"
no subject
The bird chirped and tried to nestle itself into Diana's warm palm.
Well, Mindy suddenly got earned a ton more points in Diana's view.
"You don't say?"
no subject
She nodded. "Not, like, willingly. I had a friend and stuff, and she and her friends were podded. Now I'm making sure I keep her place alive, you know?"
no subject
"There's alot of things we don't do willingly." To make her point, Diana grabbed and held up the bird in a way that seemed rather rough for such a fragile thing.
A coy smile crossed her face. "That's sweet. How's that working out?"
no subject
She nodded. "I hear that. It's going ok, though I had a ton of extra work to do thanks to that stupid alien invasion and those damn robots. But I got some food, bought more in our last vacation, and I have a new cook who's supposed to be really good, so its a work in progress. But I can get you something, obviously."
no subject
"Free samples are always nice." Diana smirked before a thought struck her. She fixed her bright, pretty eyes on Mindy.
"How about a job?"
no subject
"Well, free samples is pretty much what we d since it makes no real sense to have money, but I was thinking more putting you on priority list."
She actually looked surprised. "Really? Can you cook?"
no subject
She shrugged. "Only well enough to feed myself."
Besides, she might not be too good in a kitchen. Since she had such a low standard for food, she wouldn't be too fussy about how things are prepared, people might end up food poisoning.
Diana winked, the smirk returning. "But I'd look pretty good as a waitress, don't you think?"
no subject
She nodded. "Yeah, I do. In fact, I kinda see people coming to the place more because of you. Maybe I SHOULD start charging..."
no subject
Diana's smirk grew. "Why, thank you~ Does that mean I'm hired?"
"I'm surpised you're not already charging."
Shit, so sorry I missed this!
She nodded. "Are you kidding? I could use all the help I can get. This isn't just a hobby: I was literally here for hours after those damn robots attacked."
Mindy shook her head. "What would I even charge? The only thing I'd be interested in getting is more food for this place, and besides, Sasami wouldn't have charged."
