While on the Blue Planet

[mortalcoil]

[it's probably a public text at this point, but still...]

[ what is this. Misha stares at it for a while, trying to parse, before she eventually just replies as she does. ]

Serbia. Now you start with an A.

[mortalcoil]

[and a pause from the other line as well, as he also... struggles... to understand]

/???

waht

[interspace]

Are we not playing that game? Lame. (That ends with an E, btw, give me a word that starts with E)

[mortalcoil]

[there is a very long pause while he drunkenly tries to untangle what the hell she's talking about.]

[nailed it.]

[ She's laughing so much over here on her side. Wrong number or not, she's heavily entertained. ]

Tyrannosaurus.

[proudlywehailed]

Clay picked out a name for me.

[interspace]

[ Of course she's awake when she gets this. Her sleep schedule is erratic at best, and being on a spaceship in a small enclosed space with a bunch of strangers doesn't help that at all. She is, however, kind of grumbly and sleepy when she checks her comm. ]

What? He did?

[proudlywehailed]

I asked him to. People aren't exactly taking to "Commander" well, and I can't blame them for it. So we met on the beach, talked for a while, and he picked one out.

[interspace]

[ The next response takes a bit of time where she rubs her eyes, climbs out of bed and quietly pads into the bridge to better have this conversation. She really doesn't have to read in between the lines here to understand that given a name means 100% that he simply didn't have one before and took "Commander" for the absence of anything better. ]

Jesus, that's fantastic. What do I call you now so I can come up with terrible nicknames ASAP?

[proudlywehailed]

It's probably not going to be hard.

He named me "Orion."

[interspace]

Oh my god. Orion. That's great. I like it! Good name.

Ryan. Orry? Starbud. I don't know, I'm half asleep right now this will take some thought.

[Okay it's possible Allen has rehearsed this about a dozen times now. He's nervous as all hell- he really hasn't done this sort of thing in years. Hell even his last relationship he just sort of...fell into it. This is- yikes]

[But whatever!! He can do this. He can do this]

Ah, hello Misha? It's Allen- um, from the Blood Drive?

Anyway I was calling because- [Um, well- shit] Well your blood tests are done! You'll be happy to know it came up all fine! Nothing unusual. So that's good!

[Awkward pause...]

Also, er- I know...Ino talked to you about something? About doing...something, sometime. Together. Um...

I mean, if you're still interested, that'd be- nice.

[He gulps] I'm...going to stop rambling now. Sorry!

[And the message clicks off. Nailed it]

voice;

[interspace]

[ The reply is... delayed, because Misha is just giggling and in awe at the reply. It's so cute and shy and wow, okay, this will obviously turn out GREAT. She's honestly excited even if it's just a date to get the ol' gears greased because why not? Someone this nervous over it is bound to be someone she can get along with.

She, too, is incredibly nervous about her first date ever, after all. ]

Nothing unusual at all? Damn, that's almost disappointing. Thanks for getting back to me on it.

[ She pauses to match his, has to bite her lip to keep from making some kind of noise. ]

I think it'd be nice, too, Allen. When are you free?

voice;

[save_the_souls]

[There's a delay in his response too. He's in a bit of an awe that she actually replied, and in a positive way too. It makes him breathe a bit before he answers again]

It's no trouble! A-and it doesn't mean you aren't unique! Just...your blood can help people!

[....Ergh, is that what he should say to someone he might have a date with? He can feel his cheeks turning pink]

Oh- Good. [AH] Um...well...most of the work with the blood drive is finished and the Nunnilis problem doesn't need as much work anymore, so my schedule's rather open!

So...ah...whatever would work with you, I suppose!

voice;

[interspace]

That's more than I thought I'd get!

[ And it's true. Having superpowers kind of made her immediately cross off the idea of donating, but... if it works out that she can, then she'll keep doing it. No reason not to! Besides, with how flustered Allen is getting over it, she's grateful for that too. It's cute... ]

Well! Uh... nobody needs a lift right now and I don't really have my fingers in any other pies, so... my schedule's open, too. Looks like we could do something right now. If you wanted to.

voice;

[save_the_souls]

R-Right now?

[UH. SHIT. ITS SO SOON. HE NEEDS MORE TIME TO PREPARE]

[Except. He's really not sure what he'd do with that extra time to prepare. Other than work himself into a heart attack. Or slowly go into another nervous breakdown]

[Screw it!! You only live once!]

Ah...well-

I know a good food stand on the beach? It's usually open pretty late! Ino said you liked food...

MISHAAAAAAAA!

voice;

[interspace]

[ She's audibly laughing as she answers: ]

Claaaaaaay!

voice;

[geonomy]

[The AAAAAAAAAAAA dissolves into laughter when he realizes she's doing so in return, and then he calms down enough to actually talk.]

Did you hear about the racing? Did you see the racing? [Whiiich is why he didn't report in immediately after the date to share the deets but HE'LL GET THERE.]

voice;

[interspace]

[ Oh good, glad they're on the same page here. ]

Yes! Oh my god, I did. That is like, right up my alley, I just haven't gotten a chance to challenge anyone yet.

voice;

[geonomy]

[He's so competitive, how could he not miss out on the races?]

I did a couple! Lost one, won one!

Oh man, it's so much fun. You've got to try it! Maybe we can race together!

[save_the_souls]

Hey Misha!

I wanted to thank you for the date the other night. I had a wonderful time. I hope I good impression of dating on you?

[ Jeez that sounds lame... ]

Anyway, I'll talk to you later I suppose.

text;

[interspace]

Hi, Allen! It was great. If you ever want to do it again, just let me know?

Or, you know, we could just hang out. In a... not-date-like fashion. Right?

text;

[save_the_souls]

Ha- I think we could do either? There's no set rules about that, from what I understand.

[Seriously, he tried very hard to grill Ino for rules]
