8/19 text

[trainees]

hey rin it's peter
this is kind of random but
have you ever made your own cheese before?

[ there's a purpose to this just... bear with him ok. ]

Re: 8/19 text

[gnasher]

[somehow he's?? weirdly not surprised that the first text he ever gets from peter is]

[some weird nonsense about cheesemaking]

yeah, but only vegan cheese. i was trying a non-dairy diet and didn't want to even attempt to find that kind of stuff in my 3-street town.

this is my fault, isn't it? i fed you once, and now you followed me home...

[trainees]

[ says the guy throwing shade on him in like every other thread. also this is going to get rambly, gomen. ]

no that's great
and it's not about that ok
so on dirk's post about the cat game he made
we started talking about some of the games that i programmed back home
one of them was this pizza maker game that i did as a side thing on flash a year ago
anyway i found out dirk's never had pizza before
so i thought maybe i could try making it
apparently he had that idea before but he didn't know how we could make the cheese

i'm pretty sure some of the animals here can produce dairy
so i mean if we can get some acids like vinegar or lemon juice we could do it

[gnasher]

[the shade is how he shows affection to younger guys who look like they'd be fun to troll, shh, shh]

a lot of that information was extraneous, i think i'm boiling it down correctly to: you want to make pizza for dirk.

i'm not sure how i feel about trying to milk an alien species, but i'm in for figuring this out.

[trainees]

[ don't be a dick. ]

yes basically
i mean not having pizza at some point in your life is kind of sad tbh
and you're good at cooking so i thought i'd get your opinion on this

yeah idk how to feel about that either
but i'll look into it and get back to you

[gnasher]

[he thinks its interesting that he and peter had similar reactions; as soon as rin heard jake had never played any team sports, he'd gotten a move on planning a game. here peter is, doing the same for dirk -- it's kind of a hope-giving thought]

i definitely agree. pizza should be a basic staple in the human life. and cheese is easy to make, if you got the ingredients.

i'm pretty sure i still have most of the base's books on the mammals around here. unless you meant the hands on kind of looking into it, which i feel unsure about even more than the theoretical idea of becoming space-dairy farmers.

[trainees]

my experience with animals is very limited? so i think i'll just
ask someone about it
i heard we have a farm here? i thought i'd go check it out
or talk to whoever is maintaining it

[gnasher]

not sure i know anybody with animal experience, but i'll keep an eye open.

the farm's communal. a rapping robot horse is in charge, i think, technically.

[trainees]

a rapping robot horse?

[gnasher]

rapplejack. don't piss her off, she's got cannons.

[trainees]

canons??
who does she belong to

[gnasher]

i think she's single.

[trainees]

[ oh my god. ]

i just want to know who would look at a robot horse and think to themselves
yes, i'm going to program her to rap
and put canons on her while i'm at it
and then decide to place her on the farm

[gnasher]

i feel like you've been here long enough by now to answer your own question.

[there's only one guy so invested in horse-based humour]

[he also wants pizza]

[trainees]

i mean the only person i can think of
is dirk?
but he w

[ but then he thinks about the time dirk played guillotine by the coup in the lab and everything suddenly makes sense. ]

nevermind you're right.

[gnasher]

see? you're getting the hang of this place already.

a day later....

[trainees]

i never thought i would but i guess i am
sorry for the delay btw
i found some rubber for the volleyball
you want me to bring it over?

Re: a day later....

[gnasher]

[o hey]

just hold onto it for now, we're still working on the rest of the components. thanks for going out and managing not to get eaten.

how was it? i haven't been yet.

[trainees]

no problem

it's alright?
i mean
as far as a ship wreck in the middle of the sea can be i guess

[ he's being really casual about this... that's because the crawlers aren't nearly as bad compared to the winter soldier trying to punch you in the face. ]

i thought you went earlier though?

[gnasher]

makoto and i went somewhere closer for materials. that far out is too dangerous for us.

why isn't it too dangerous for you?

[he's been wondering why peter's been so casual about SCARYFUCKDIE zone since he volunteered]

[trainees]

[ bc he's spiderman ok.

also how does he even begin to explain that. well. jake came out pretty candidly about his world so?? ]

it's kind of a long story
but some weird stuff went down back home
and we had like
alien invasions a few times
so i guess i'm kind of used to it
sort of.

[ he honestly still doesn't know how that happened tbh. #justavengersthings ]

[gnasher]

i'm starting to think my earth is the only one that didn't have issues with alien invaders. the theoretical confirmation of life outside our planet is cool, but the invading part, not so much.

so you can fight.

[trainees]

alien invasions suck
i'm glad there's an iteration of the 21st century that doesn't have to deal with that tbh

yeah i can

[gnasher]

honestly, now that i've met all of you, i feel like the clock is ticking.

how do you fight?

[trainees]

don't jinx yourself.

you mean like if i'm trained in anything?
