Who: everyone
When: Day 35 morning
Where: the lounge car

[This morning, or whenever you wake up, you will find that there are delicious smells wafting from the lounge car. Upon investigation, one will discover a beautiful spread of hot cocoa and tea and coffee and many marshmallow animals, ideal for putting in your drinks or simply eating wholesale. It isn't just cats either, but many animals of a similar quality of marshmallow, whatever kinds you'd like. But you may find the warm fuzzies they impart might be a bit more than internal.

In a conspicuous place is a note in handwriting many of you may find quite familiar at this point:

Thanks for your help.

- Hazel

His signature isn't alone, either. There are a couple of others, though somehow they're far less readable? Some are definitely just little drawings. Weird.]

[[ooc notes: 10% furry event!! many marshmallows have no effect, but those that do will instill temporary animal parts up to a kemonomimi level! enjoy your ears and tails, folks. and your newbies.]]

That shouldn't be a problem. So far, I seem to be really into the whole team spirit thing and believe in the value of cooperation.

[bad_crowmance]

Haha, sounds like you'll do just fine then. Rean and Naeva'll both love you.

[schrodingerscockroach]

Rean is really straight forward on the whole thing. Naeva about the same?

[bad_crowmance]

Yeah, they're both pretty straight shooters. Not everyone's good at the whole bonding deal and they're the ones who are doing the most legwork towards community building and whatnot.

[schrodingerscockroach]

[He nods, looking thoughtful a moment.]

I think. I'll see what I can do to help with that. Not sure how good I'm at that sort of thing, but if it'll help keep people from getting corrupted, it's worth giving it a shot.

[bad_crowmance]

That's the attitude! You're gonna do just fine here.

[schrodingerscockroach]

[Aaaaah, more praise. It's still kind of weird to get? At least for stuff like this.]

I'll do my best.

[bad_crowmance]

That's all anyone can ask for.

[schrodingerscockroach]

[Hopefully he can live up to expectation. He wants to, but he is pretty much following impulses.]

Thanks.

Still have to work on my name, but what's yours?

[bad_crowmance]

[ 99% of Crow's impulse control is Rean Schwarzer, he's not going to judge. ]

The name's Crow! And don't worry about it, just lemme know when you figure out the name situation.

[schrodingerscockroach]

Will do. Nice to meet you, Crow.

So, covered the basics. What do you do for fun around here?

[This is bonding, right?]

[bad_crowmance]

[ His first impulse is to give a decidedly nsfw answer, but he restrains himself with the 1% of control he keeps to himself. ]

Well, personally I like to play card games.

[schrodingerscockroach]

[That might be for the best. Or not. Wash does have hilarious reactions when flustered.]

Card games...seem fun, I think. Poker, black jack, other?

[bad_crowmance]

Poker's a personal favourite but I'm always up for blackjack too. I've also got a couple of Blade decks, but I haven't had much of a chance to introduce people to that game yet.

[schrodingerscockroach]

Well I could be your first student?

[bad_crowmance]

[ Crow immediately perks up--not that he'd been looking particularly unhappy before, but there's definitely a gleeful air about him that wasn't there before. ]

I'd love to!

[schrodingerscockroach]

Then lets give it a try. Might be a good break from world ending exposition.

[If it relies on luck at all, he's gonna eat it, his luck is terrible.]

[bad_crowmance]

Wanna get settled and check everything out first or just jump right into things?

[schrodingerscockroach]

....we can jump in. I've been getting a lot so far, might be good to take a break.

[bad_crowmance]

Alright, let's grab a table and I'll break it down for you.

[schrodingerscockroach]

Lead the way.

[Grabbing them more marshmallows and a fresh cup of cocoa, but will follow otherwise.]

[bad_crowmance]

[ The lounge has plenty of low tables, so he grabs one near some chairs and sits down before he pulls out two decks of cards and slides one over to Wash. ]

This is a Blade deck.

[ He lays out each of the cards. ]

Each player draws ten cards from their deck. The idea is to be the guy with the highest point value by the end of the game. So there's the number value cards, one through seven, and some specialty cards too.

[schrodingerscockroach]

[He'll take the deck, looking them over, nodding thoughtfully.]

[Pauses at the Force card. Oooooh, that does look like a cool combo.]

[....okay, he may like weapons.]

Is it a kind of battle card game?

[bad_crowmance]

Kind of! It's a strategy game, the specialty cards are what makes it interesting.

[ He points to the Force card Wash was eyeing. ]

This one, for example, can double your current points value.

[schrodingerscockroach]

[He nods.] Sounds like a powerful card then.
