[OPEN] An OTA for any post-mission threads! And Movie Night.
CHARACTERS: The crew!
LOCATION: The Mess Hall
DATE: After the mission / Movie Night, the day after the mission!
CONTENT: Feel free to use this log as somewhere to play out closed starters or what-have-you for any post-mission needs! There is also a movie night (sorta) in which the crew can contribute to it, as Newton is going to be out sick for this one.
WARNINGS: Nothing severe! But mark your comments if needed.
Upon returning from the mission, things need to take a real breather, huh? Not only have some of their folks returned home recently, but the witnessing of two crews getting gobbled up by pissed off dragons is also a thing. Not that a lot of the crew would probably contest the outcome wasn't somewhat deserved — caging living creatures to steal away from their families would definitely fall under 'stupid games, stupid prizes' that Americans love to say. Or whoever invented that (it was definitely not Tom Clancy, despite what some people say).
Anyway, everyone's back to mingling into the station, tired and victorious and maybe a little put-out by the overall murder and maiming. Business as usual, right?
So, Newt does what he usually does! Attempt to set up the mess hall for another typical movie night.
Only, he has fallen actually sick.
So the movie night is gonna have to rely solely on the crew, this go-around.
Upon entering the mess hall, many will find the usual things half-heartedly strewn about: the movie projector with the DVD player, sitting unused on one of the tables. The white cloth used to project on, half-hung and abandoned, looking like the world's worst sheet ghost on Halloween. Stacked dinner and snack plates with nothing on them are still in the kitchen, not yet moved around. In fact, the only thing that seems to have been fully supplied is a pile of pillows and blankets on the floor and one bag of 5 lbs., unopened sour patch kids on a chair.
Newt, it seems, has been put down for the day with his pirate-world-flu. Pirate Flu?
(It's not scurvy.)
Anyone stopping in will have to fend for themselves and provide any movies, music, food or additional goodies for this movie night, while Newton Geiszler is forced into bedrest by Chishiya and Yujin (who have the patience of saints in this situation).
Leave a comment HERE to let us know, so people can include the goods in any top levels.

[Mutter mutter.
But after a moment, he gives a skeptical, unsure glance.]
... You really wanna help set up?
[He usually flies solo by the seat of his pants for these. Not that he's ever even asked anyone to help; he's just a busybody who needs to always have a project, or else he's eternally bored between missions.]
no subject
Yeah! Sure, why not? [ Put these muscles to good use and all that. ] As long as you promise to take it easy by a notch or ten. We're gonna need everyone at their best for whatever comes next, you know?
no subject
I gotta admit, I really could use a few hand-outs right now.
This room was starting to spin there for a while.
no subject
[ It's a good deal! Peter gets nothing out of it ... but it's fine, it's still a good deal. Oh man, he's a total softie isn't he? The compliment from earlier helped too. Shh, whatever. ]
So what do you say, boss?
no subject
You're a good guy, Pete.
... But alright. You got yourself a deal. And hey — you get full reign on the music. Even some of the movies. That's a totally awesome deal. [He thinks, anyway. He'd do whatever for a party if it meant picking the jams and shows. Then again, maybe that's why he'd been so happy to fill this role all along. Sniffling, he rubs a hand over his face.] Maybe I'll just... take a nap. Yeah. Nap's good.
[He proceeds to wander toward the exit —
Nope! Just kidding.
He wanders over to the nearest pile of pillows and blankets, immediately flopping down into them.]
wrapped? 🎀
[ Peter had been looking towards the chairs and tables still yet to be moved, and now he turns back to Newt for a little more direction. ]
— okay. I can probably figure it out.
[ And he is looking forward to choosing the tunes and some of the movies. Saying that, yeah, the deal probably is a good one.
So he'll leave Newt to his nap because the little dude definitely deserves one. He'll even search out a random afghan lying around to throw it over him so he doesn't get so cold. ]
