Video Broadcast - OTA (Post Storm)

[doubled_speed]

[Hey guys, look who it is. The bright and cheerful and constantly snarky kid. Who is smiling wide, though it looks a bit strained. Good news, his arm has healed since getting back. Bad news, Tommy looks nervous and maybe a hint of stressed as the video starts. But hey, he's in the greenhouse, which is obvious from the greenery around him. And his communication device is propped up against something, because his hands are in the shot, working at the soil around a lush Cyanana plant, clearly working fertilizer into the soil with care.]

So, like... Just because we've got the ships and stuff doesn't mean it's not important for us to maintain the greenhouse, right? We were gone for a while and not all the places in here did well while we were gone. And then I was walking around and realized that we're sorta scattered, the people working here. So maybe people with the skill should, like, coordinate? Because fresh food on the ships is good too. We can preserve shit and put it on the ships for variation.

I also wanna do, like, hydroponics on some of the ships. So if we gets spaced again for a while, we can have fresh stuff.

Guess...

[He sighs and his hand cards through his hair. Which means some dirt is now there in the perfect white strands.]

Guess I mean I'm willing to help organize. Map out the greenhouse, help us figure out schedules and when to work on different plants and that shit. Or not. Someone else can take that charge. I don't much care. It just needs done. Might also need an engineer to help with the ship part. And maybe people to okay adding it to other ships and to take care of the plants.

Anyway uh...

[Let him be useful. He failed as a hero in the storm. Disappointment and frustration flash across his face in the video and then it's gone.]

Thoughts?

I'll be glad to help get that started. I've been tending to Greenhouse while most had left for the storm. I've also been wanting to secure the Greenhouse as well so we don't get someone that wants to...destroy our supplies.

[doubled_speed]

Wait.

[Tommy looks genuinely confused.]

Why would someone want to fuck with our food source? I don't even believe it.

[thrawnsaide]

.......

There's been a recent post by a new comer. He threaten to burn down the supplies he found in order to obtain a few people that he said were his enemy.


[Private]
Everything okay?

[doubled_speed]

[Tommy looks shocked and offended.]

Dude even makes a step toward the greenhouse you tell me. I’ll be there before he can reach it and carry him off to the ocean.

And I am massively offended by this dude.

[thrawnsaide]

This dude is not someone to really easily take down. He's a variation of a Sith from what I can gather. He claims to be a Supreme Leader from his world. I don't want to see you getting hurt from him. He's not someone to go looking for trouble with.

I would feel better if we can get some kind of security for the Greenhouse. I appreciate your desire to step in and fight him.

[doubled_speed]

Dude, I can run at mach 4. He can't react in time to stop me.

[thrawnsaide]

I sure hope you're right on that one. I know what Sith are capable of. They aren't something to take lightly. This one is not reasonable like Altair.

[doubled_speed]

I'm not that bad at handling myself. ANd I put a lot of fucking work into the Greenhouse. And i'm REALLY good at fighting bad people.

[thrawnsaide]

[Eli sighed in defeat.]

Alright, have at it. My job's always been dealing with numbers and helping capture pirates. It never included dealing with destructive Force users. We have one back at home that I choose to avoid as much as possible.

[doubled_speed]

Yeah, well, he's never met anyone like me and he's gonna learn not to threaten the places I like. Plus you're not a bad guy, right?

[thrawnsaide]

Eh....it depends on who you view as a bad guy. For some people simply working for the Empire's Imperial Navy means you're bad.... due to the reputation it's gained over the years. Granted when I joined the Imperial Navy...it wasn't bad. I simply just want to help people.

[doubled_speed]

I mean, they could be evil. And if you didn't know, you can't exactly escape.

[thrawnsaide]

You have a point there.

[doubled_speed]

I know. I'm REALLY good at making points.

[thrawnsaide]

Okay, I can give you some credit there. Why don't you come to the kitchen and eat and we can talk more in person instead of this device. I hate using this.

[doubled_speed]

Dude, if you've got food, you KNOW I'm htere.

[In fact, he's already at the door, leaning in the space with is head tilted.]

What you got today, mister chef?

[thrawnsaide]

[Eli simply shook his head when he realized that Tommy had arrived. He would eventually get used to the speed the kid was known for. It was still new for him.]

I have a few new recipes I just tried, but then we have the usual menu.

[doubled_speed]

I really need to find you things to make pies out of.

[He walks across at a normal speed and flops down onto the nearest surface that makes a good chair.]

There anything you're running low on and need from the greenhouse? I'm trying to learn how to preserve things if I can.

[thrawnsaide]

Anything you think would be handy, would be appreciated.

[As Eli responds, he begins to prep a meal for Tommy.]

I know I'm going to need more herbs and roots. I also need to collect more salt so we don't use up the gift of salt the Agri gave us. I'm sure the hospital could probably use herbs needed for medicines. You can ask Altair that.

[doubled_speed]

[He appreciates real food, so much. He sighs and tilts his in consideration.]

I don't tend to look at the herbs, but I can check that out. And there should be processes to get the salt from the ocean, I think.

[But he wants to figure it out. Be helpful. Be appreciated.]

[thrawnsaide]

Yes, there's a method to collecting the salt. I was using it before they gave me the salt rock. It's just very tedious and time consuming. I want to spend a few days just concentrating on that so we have some in storage.

What stuff are you able to preserve?

[doubled_speed]

I need to ask them for jars or something. I don't know. I think the agriculture data point is SUPPOSED to teach you that. But it glitches with my head. So I sorta just... I'm thinking of drying things. And asking for a book or something?

[thrawnsaide]

Hrmm you could ask them about the book they might supply it. I wouldn't mind reading it myself as I sometimes have a hard time understanding the information the data point supplied. Or what it suggests is something I'm not familiar with at all.

There's this place in the area that was an abandoned market where you can find various items and use them for yourself. I've been there once, but not a place I want to go by myself.

[doubled_speed]

I was decorating my place with my brother with stuff from there.

[He supposes he needs a new place now. He's gotten just good enough to be mobile and hasn't bothered to go home in a WHILE.]

Get myself a bed and set up in one of the abandoned shops or something.

[thrawnsaide]

Well there's room here if you want a place. A few rooms are already taken, but you're more then welcome to take a room.
