[At some point in the day Carne seeks out Rose, Todd T. Toad in tow.]

Rose, sweetie! I was wondering if you wanted to help me put together a toad home for my son.

[scribbly]

[Rose is never hard to find because she only cares about games and food. At least she's consistent.]

...That's a toad. [she at least kind of knows what sons are and she's pretty sure they aren't toads!!!]

[court_chesster]

He's adopted. But I still think we look a little alike, don't you?

[Holds the toad up next to his face.]

[scribbly]

Hahaha! I see it now!

[she's definitely still carrying that fucking death eggplant around but it's getting left behind in her seat when she skips over.]

What's a toad home? I wanna help!

[court_chesster]

[yup, just gonna ignore that eggplant]

Toads don't normally live on spaceships, so this place is really confusing to him. I thought if we use our creativity and the weird food machine, we could make him a home that he understands a little better.

[scribbly]

So we should make him, umm...a little pond, right? With...some trees and some bushes? [she is clearly a little uncertain about toad habitats but bless her heart, she's trying] He'd understand that stuff better, right?

[court_chesster]

Yeah, you've got the idea! Let's see how small we can make it, though. He's a little guy and he doesn't want to take up too much of our space.

[scribbly]

Okay! A tiny, tiny pond and an itty bitty forest...

...What happens if he eats his toad home?

[fandisservice]

[ so far most of yesterday and today has consisted of being locked in the airlock for this guy. So no, it doesn't seem any better at all.

intermittent pounding and kicking comes from behind the airlock steel doors. ]

Is anyone back there alive and fucking competent enough to get these open, back there!?

[scribbly]

[and for like the third time since this asshole has gotten stuck in here, Rose pauses outside the door

spends a second listening to all this yelling

and continues walking


bye]

[fandisservice]

[ BANG BANG BANG POUND POUND POUND ]

[ HE KNOWS SOMEONE HAS TO BE OUT THERE ]

[ screw u rose ]

[court_chesster]

[eventually, someone besides the sadistic child happens by]

...Tactical Officer?

[fandisservice]

[ Immediately: ]

Yes! About time! Are you going to let me out, now, or are we to play twenty questions through the door?!

[court_chesster]

Yeah, sorry!

[Looks at the control panel. It's pretty obvious what's going on there, but he can't resist:]

...Which button is the one that lets you out?

[fandisservice]

Arrows facing away from each other, wouldn't you think? Using your eyes can't be that much of a hardship!

[ SO ANNOYED ]

[court_chesster]

Right! Sorry!

[At least he pushes the correct button.]

[fandisservice]

[ The Tactical Officer stumbles out— it's clear he was leaning against the door for that conversation, straining against it even though he knew someone was on the other side. A step or two and he rights himself, and he looks up, daring him to say anything.

At least the anger in his voice as simmered down. Looks like he's relieved to be let out. ]

Finally. Exactly how long was I shut away?

[ No watches in the airlock ]

[court_chesster]

I don't know. When did you go in there?

[court_chesster]

[Knocking on the blue team's door.]

Capta~in?

[the_rogue]

[The door doesn't open, but he calls from inside.]

It's unlocked!

[court_chesster]

[Once permission has been given, the door slides open, and Carne walks in with a coffee and some weird-looking fruit.]

I thought you might be hungry, so I brought you some provisions.

[the_rogue]

[He's sitting on his bed and leans forward curiously to look at the fruit, scrunching his nose up.]

Looks like a porcupine fused with a candy.

[court_chesster]

It's fruit. It's good for you?

[possibly the questioning lilt isn't necessary]

[the_rogue]

...How do you eat it?

[court_chesster]

You just need to puncture the skin and then it peels pretty easy. Watch out for the pit.

[Takes a fruit knife and demonstrates on one of them, popping it in his mouth before setting the knife down with the rest.]
