[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.

he looks down at himself, as if surveying the long lines of his own frame. ) It seems so.
( and then a gentle smile, a cooling balm to melt the mischief from his face as he takes in the sight of the friend beside him. the arm is new, the hand not as it was. he frowns, not reaching to touch. ) Your hand?
no subject
[ Though there is that ever-present loud, intense tone to his voice as if offended that Xichen would dare act so casual after so long, it's clear that said intensity is because Yzak missed him so.
That little outburst gets toned down fast, at Xichen's remark about his hand. Because it's such a norm nowadays that nobody really points it out ... not that he himself isn't hyper aware of it every single day. Yzak blinks, looks down at the hand braced on the table still from pushing himself to his feet, and a muted expression makes it way into his face.
He stands straight, his left hand moving to close over the wrist of his right briefly. ]
Don't worry about it right now.
[ It's said more somber than dismissively. But it's honest, as Yzak can't help but be. They can go into that in a few minutes - Xichen just got here! And who wants to dive directly into something so agonizingly depressing!
Yzak tips his head back up, turns toward the teapot and assortment of teas he's brought along. ] You asked for tea. What kind? [ An offer to get it ready for him, while he continues. ]
Does it even feel like you've been gone? Did anything else, anything new happen in your life that you recall between then and now?
no subject
he dips his head, as if agreeing that he will not press the issue but it is only a matter of time. of those amongst the crew, yzak is one he worries about. ) And nothing new happened. As far as I remember, I was once again kneeling in the ruins of Guanyin Temple and then I awoke here.
( he does not remember sleeping either.
looking at the teapot, he considers the options. ) Jasmine, please.
no subject
Well, it's been — a lot longer than that. A hell of a lot longer.
[ He moves to grab a teacup, prepare the leaves and pour the steaming water to allow it to steep. ]
... So it's good to see you again. And that you actually remember being here in the first place..!
