Meet and Greet

The rest of the crew assembled on the Observation Deck to meet the latest editions to their numbers.

Several people are set up near the doors to provide the new people with omnicomms and comm rings. They are also told they must read information about their current situation and a survival guide with their new omnicomm. New crewmates might see a tall dragonish guy with wings (but don't call him that), a large afro attached to a smaller girl, and talking ponies among their number. There are also several authoritative-looking figures ready to introduce themselves.

There's a lot to tell the new people. It's going to be a lot to take in. But thankfully this time, there's a system that was set up to aid the new crew members with a few more experienced ones.

[ooc: Only new characters and Command Staff can start new threads for introductions, to limit the number of threads. Everyone else, just tag in and have your guys greet the newbies. Big brother/sister, there will be a thread for you as well!]

"Ball-wha?" Lina looks up at the elf, and before she can question him further, he drops the greeting on her. Her shoulders sink a little, and she looks only mildly annoyed. "...not the most encouraging endorsement for this place, y'know."

...

"Just how crappy are we talking in regards to the food?"
seesbosscrotch: (no)

"It means hello. And this is a pretty terrible place in a terrible situation, so I'd hate to give you a good impression of it."

He leaned in to speak in confidential tones. "The worst you can possibly imagine. The plates are tastier."
dragonspooker: (/SCREAM)

The short girl huffs, blowing a bit of hair out of her line of sight. "Well, at least you're honest about it," she answers.

However, her appreciation of the honesty comes at a price - what he says about the food makes her go a little pale, and stumble backwards. "Y'mean... I get woke up for some kinda bug-killing trip and the people in charge aren't good enough to provide decent food?!" Oh, the horrified look on her face right now...
seesbosscrotch: (the dude approves)

"Well, if I lied, I'd probably end up regretting it later," Mar said with unusual wisdom. "There ARE chances to get good food, don't get me wrong! But they're few and far between. On the other hand, there's a room that can make a sort-of-real version of anything you can imagine, so if you don't mind it being a big and very convincing illusion, you can eat anything you want! At all!"
dragonspooker: (It's not that bad...)

[personal profile] dragonspooker 2012-04-05 01:18 am (UTC)(link)
"You've got a point there," came Lina's answer. And given her tendency to lash out at those who've wronged her...well, it's just good that Mar had that flash of wisdom.

"...I don't wanna eat fake food, though, I want the real deal!"
seesbosscrotch: (no)

[personal profile] seesbosscrotch 2012-04-05 01:29 am (UTC)(link)
"Well, when we have a shore leave, I'll buy you a meal," Mar said, foolishly failing to avoid THIS particular trap. "Until then, your options are as bad as our situation, not unrelatedly."
dragonspooker: (Up to no good~)

[personal profile] dragonspooker 2012-04-05 02:21 am (UTC)(link)
Congratulations, Mar, you just made her mood do a one-eighty. She's literallypractically sparkling at that offer. "Really?! Thank you!" She will hold you to that, Mar. Violently, if need be.
seesbosscrotch: (cheer)

Why does this seem so ominous....?

"Well, it seems to mean so much to you! It's the least I could do."
dragonspooker: (I'm a genius you see)

[personal profile] dragonspooker 2012-04-05 02:51 am (UTC)(link)
Because it signals death. The death of your savings, Maridian.

"Well, it is! I'm a growing girl, and I gotta have energy so I can blast these stupid bugs or whatever it was that lady said we're up against. Fireballs don't grow on trees, after all."
seesbosscrotch: (the dude approves)

[personal profile] seesbosscrotch 2012-04-05 02:56 am (UTC)(link)
"Fireballs, hmm? I know a couple of recipes I can cook if I can get the raw materials that'll boost them right up!"

Why well-cooked food adds to intelligence is anyone's guess...
dragonspooker: (Eh? What's that?)

[personal profile] dragonspooker 2012-04-05 03:57 am (UTC)(link)
You officially have Lina's attention.

"...you know food recipes that boost magic?"
seesbosscrotch: (flex)

[personal profile] seesbosscrotch 2012-04-05 05:54 pm (UTC)(link)
"Cooking is a proud Azerothian tradition," he said proudly. "And I'm as skilled as any at it!"
dragonspooker: (Excited)

[personal profile] dragonspooker 2012-04-05 07:24 pm (UTC)(link)
"Well, I can't say I've heard of any cooking that affects one's magic, short of cooking potions, but I have to say I'm quite interested!" After all, it combines her chief loves in life!
seesbosscrotch: (the answer is SHIELD BASH YOUR FACE!)

[personal profile] seesbosscrotch 2012-04-05 08:33 pm (UTC)(link)
Impossible. Madness! "You mean after eating a well-cooked meal, you don't feel stronger and more powerful? You must not have been eating the right meals then!"
dragonspooker: (Seriously...?)

[personal profile] dragonspooker 2012-04-09 07:41 am (UTC)(link)
"Well, I feel refueled, but I've never really felt boosted any more than that from a meal. Granted, I tend to eat at inns and such when traveling, and the people that staff those don't really dabble in magic, so..."
seesbosscrotch: (flex)

[personal profile] seesbosscrotch 2012-04-09 01:50 pm (UTC)(link)
"Or aren't as good at cooking as we Azerothian adventurers are!" He thumped a hand proudly against his chest. "I'll give you a culinary delight such as you've never known, then! Prepare to have your world ROCKED!"
dragonspooker: (I see a treasure!)

[personal profile] dragonspooker 2012-04-15 09:28 am (UTC)(link)
"An adventurer and a cook?" Be still her beating stomach. Lina grins - she can't quite believe her luck. "Well, if you're offering, I'll hold you to that, too!"
seesbosscrotch: (flex)

Inflate his ego a little more, why not? "It's quite common on Azeroth. But apparently less so here. I just need to get some meat to cook up!"
