So this is what you guys warned me about, huh. [Someone seems kind of put out. And maybe a tiny bit shaken. And bruised, but she's ignoring that. She's got a guitar in her lap, but she's just holding it there, not playing.]

I don't get how you can just - shoot someone and--

No, sorry, we don't need more of that. [She leans forward and fiddles at the computer, and in the background Pocket Fulla Sunshine is now playing quietly. Then she leans back in her chair again, hands on the guitar.]

I painted my dog's nails to this, once. Best waste of a Saturday night ever. [But she shakes her head a little, waving a hand.] I'd serenade you guys, if I knew anything serenade worthy...You know, I could seriously use some Starbucks right now, and I know, I'm dating my generation really hideously with that but sometimes a mocha frappe really brightens a day. Or a week. Especially one like this has been.

Did you know they make alcoholic whip cream? It tastes kind of like bad maple syrup. ....Which I know only through hearsay, of course, I mean obviously. [Have a look that is totally innocent but also says lol not really.] I wonder if there's any in the pub. I bet that in some coffee would be a great pick-me-up.

[She starts strumming the guitar. Nothing really magical, just a chord or two or three in no particular order.] So do new people come in every month? I mean, it's starting to seem like that, but Jesus, how have we not hit overcrowding yet?

[Private to Heero]

Did you come through okay?

[Private to the Admiral]

Can I have a pair of those safari vest things,and giant nets? ...And one safari hat.

We should try to find one in the next port..

Right? It's totally amazing. There's no announcement or anything either, so for all we know, there's new rooms we haven't even found yet.

I would be all over that. Let's do it.

...And now I'm thinking we need to go on a barge safari.

Cool.

Oh my god we totally should.

Do you think if I ask for some safari hats and giant nets, the Admiral would hook us up?
everylittlegirl: (reconsidering coffee)

Maybe! I'm so not wearing a safari hat, though. What about one of those vests?
worstsongever: (lol what)

[personal profile] worstsongever 2011-07-14 08:39 pm (UTC)(link)
Come on, if we're gonna wear the vests, we have to wear the hats.
everylittlegirl: (nuh uh uh! (hard candy))

The hats are ridiculous. What if someone I don't like sees me in that? I'm never living it down. That's really just not worth the risk for me.

We could always play it off as them clearly not being cool enough to appreciate the hats, but...okay. I will settle for vests and giant nets.

Alright. You ask the Admiral and let me know.
