Welp We're Here and That's What Matters

[ahelpingpaw]

[Perhaps it's tradition by now, he doesn't know. Still, he does send a note to everyone some time after the trial. Simple and to the point:]

Because everything on this ship is awful, I think a drink is needed. Come get some at the bar, it'll do you some good as long as you don't drink too much

Filbo (pawprint)

[Indeed, if you come to the bar you'll find there's one of everything. Filbo seems to have asked literally every drink he knows or has at least heard about, and lined them up from the most mellow to the strongest. There's one of each, so it's limited, take yours before it's gone! Or...ask Jimmy Buffett for more, he's right there.

Should he be encouraging drinking? He's not completely certain, but he had to do something! And this is as good as anything -- not festive because this is no time to be festive, but also social enough to encourage coming.

This will do.]

[She moves aside. It's not direct permission but the nod is.]

Well, you can't be any worse than Alice was.

[silentscout]

Thank you.

[For the permission, and the compliment.

Lalli is going to immediately go for the bunk beds and crawl under the bottom bunk though, assuming there's nothing under there to block his way.]

[leaveittomother]

[Look, she liked Alice but she was the one who tried throwing out her stuff.

There's a lot of rolled up papers under there but nothing that he can't push aside.]

Hah, I guess I'll move to the top bunk now.

[She's smiling gently at least?]

[silentscout]

[He can use the papers to make a nest! Kissa is batting one around too.]

It's okay. I'll stay under here, I won't bother you. It's hard to sleep on a normal bed anyway.

[leaveittomother]

Jack was like that. She would steal all the blankets and make a nest.

[She says with a small laugh to herself.]

My child, I mean. Not the Captain.

[silentscout]

[He honestly does look confused for a moment until she explains that.]

You're a mom?

[leaveittomother]

Adoptive, technically, but yes.

[She rubs the back of her neck.]

It was so much easier referring to her by name before we heard the Captain's name.

[silentscout]

Call her "the cuter Jack"?

[It's probably true.]

[leaveittomother]

It'd be accurate.

[She giggles...and brings out her device. She flashes her motive picture which is Reika and a young girl and a cute kid with a lot of scars at a piano.]

I mean, she's adorable!
