It's Hange, Hange, Hange! Were you looking for me? I'll get back to you posthaste. Or when it's convenient.

[ communicator & actionspam it's all good ]

[Hange nods and then sits back in her armchair, eye briefly slipping closed. Big expenditures of emotion feel so... exhausting, at the moment. She gets where Bill's coming from on that.]

I recommend you taking something like that up.

[beejfu]

Yeah.

DT and me are really into costuming. And I love singing, dancing, performing, all that shit.

Maybe we could be a duo. Take the show on the road.

Just...spitballing.

[14thcommander]

[Hange nods.]

Are those things that help you calm your emotions?

[beejfu]

Channel them, but yeah.

Can we talk about something else besides me for a bit?

[14thcommander]

Yeah.

[Distractions are good.]

Is there something you want to talk about or should I spin the big conversational wheel?

[beejfu]

Whatever you wanna talk about. You, work, this ship, whatever.

[14thcommander]

[Hange, for a second, just.

Just draws a total blank. What does she want to talk about? Anything?]

I - uh - you know... I wish we had, uh, a stable on this ship, and grounds. The Admiral can do the enclosure, I'm sure he could do that.

[beejfu]

Ah, yeah? For horses and shit?

Nice. Nice. Horses are...actually I don't think I've ever seen a horse before. Just on TV and shit.

[14thcommander]

We worked with them a lot. The scouts, I mean. Our horses are as brave as tigers. Clever. Loyal. When a scout leaves horseback to fight, a well-trained scout horse knows to stick close to their rider and come when called.

[beejfu]

You ever eat them when times get tough?

[14thcommander]

A scout horse cost more money than most civilians ever see in their lives.

So usually only if they keeled over on their own.

[beejfu]

[He nods a little]

That makes sense.

Shit. I need to figure out money.

[14thcommander]

I thought Stan was teaching you! Did he not go over money with you?

[Stanford and Stanley left. :/ It was probably an incomplete education.]

Alternately, you go someplace where they're still on the barter system.

[beejfu]

He DID, we just didn't...really get a chance to have more than a few lessons.

I wanna go somewhere that's nice. Somewhere where the people are amazing and friendly and looking to help a guy out.

[14thcommander]

Well, good luck with that. [It's tough in general to find a world so milk-and-honey sweet, as far as Hange's concerned.] Any ideas what to do when you get there?

[beejfu]

Make a lot of friends and basically fuck shit up.

[14thcommander]

[She flattens out just about immediately.]

I sincerely hope you're joking right now. If you want a good world, prepare yourself to help build one. Otherwise, don't mess up what other people worked hard to build.

[beejfu]

Kidding! Kidding.

[He holds up his hands in defense]

Hange, relax. Yes to the first, no to the second. I wouldn't fall back on my demonic ways so soon after graduating!
