[It's been a while since Eggsy's addressed the rest of the crew, but he decides it's been long enough of a wait. He's got two very important things to throw out there, better to just get on with it. The first portion is a video feed.]

'Ello, crew. It's Eggsy.

[Not that they didn't know that, obviously, but yeah, anyways.]

I've got two things I wanna talk about, so here goes.

[He holds his arm up to get a good angle.]

I was thinkin' 'bout how we don't know how long we're gonna be here. If all we're doin' is going to this planet, then we should be quicker, yeah? I mean, stock up quicker, maybe improve the ship so that we travel faster. What do you's think?

[The second comes though as a voice to text.]

I'd like to hang out with someone. M'not sayin' it's gotta be a date, can be whatever, but it can be if you want. I've been thinkin' about a lot of stuff since I died. [And how being alone is super difficult for him right now.] Yeah, that's a thing. So seize the day an' all that. Can send back a private message if you're interested. Thanks.

We can watch a movie sometime, if you want. One of those classics you like.

Not as a date, though. Obviously.

[commontype]

Obviously? What are you sayin' Bruce? I ain't your type or somethin'?

[He's smiling down at his MID, though, because Bruce remembered he liked those kinds of films and he was always down for a brodate.]

[hyperkinesia]

Well, the fact that I'm too old for you is just one of a number of reasons.

[ Said mostly as a joke, but not without a portion of truth to it either; Bruce is far from the kind to date. He's left that part of his life behind a long time ago. ]

[commontype]

Age has got nothin' to do with it. You ain't that much older than me. But, if you don't want to date me, Bruce, I get that. :(

[Eggsy understood, honestly, he just wanted to joke with him. Not everybody is in a place to date and not everybody wants to date younger men that love animals and have saved the world and are learning to be a proper gentleman. Wait, he's wonderful, Bruce. Come on.]

[ For the record that totally reads like a date ad. Stop that, Eggsy. ]

Right. Thanks for respecting my choice.
I'm sure you'll get a lot of takers for actual dates in the meantime.

It isn't as easy as just making the ship go faster. If you make it too powerful then it could damage the ship in transit or even the Ingress and housing and then... Bad things. You have to be careful.

[commontype]

I just figure that with all the smart people on this ship, we could do somethin' to make the trip faster. Even if it's just gettin' our shit together.

[hirotohero]

It would take a lot of work to retrofit the engines for more speed. At this point getting our stuff together would probably be easier.

voice to text;

[commontype]

Yeah, that's right. So, don't think we've met. I'm Eggsy.

[whynotgoonmyown]

I'm down with doing something. Not as a date or anything, not really looking for that right now. Did you have anything in mind, or...

text;

[commontype]

Wanna meet me somewhere and we can see what trouble we can get into? You ain't got a problem with alien dogs or people missing hands do ya?

text;

[whynotgoonmyown]

Works for me. And nope, don't have a problem with either of those, though I do want to hear the story on how you got the dog. You have a problem with werewolves?

text;

[commontype]

Meet me in the mess hall in twenty?

I'll tell you how I got Stark and you can tell me why you'd ask me that. And, no, ain't got a problem with werewolves.

talk to text

[intherigging]

I spend most of my time in the bar but I'd be happy to share a drink and some conversation.

[Jacky doesn't much care to be alone, either.]

text;

[commontype]

When should I come down there? I ain't got much to do right now.

talk to text

[intherigging]

Well seeing as mister miles still hasn't put in an appearance I'm down here pretty permanent like so whenever you'd like mate there ain't anyone in here right now

talk to text;

[commontype]

You know Miles? He seems like a good bloke.

I'll be down in 'bout an hour? Got to bundle up an' all that.

[seeingscarlet]

[Wanda can get that; she needs quiet time because of her powers but there's only so much of that the rest of her can tolerate.]

What did you want to do? The ship is still a mess :(

[commontype]

Well there's lots of reasons we could be cuddlin', but if that ain't your thing, we could do somethin' else. Maybe just sit somewhere an' talk, or get somethin' to eat?

[seeingscarlet]

[woah eggsy buy her dinner first]

do you want to talk or do you want to listen to other things?

[Not that there's much of a distinction for a telepath, but outwardly is another story.]

[commontype]

[He doesn't have any money, but there's food in the mass hall. That's got to count.]

What do you mean?

Voice;

[forcefulgift]

'ello mate. 'ere we are in bloody space and you're tryin'a get a bit. [He chuckles.] Can't say I'm proper surprised.

voice to text;

[commontype]

Why's that? Not bein' surprised.

Just thinkin' I'd like some company. Ain't tryin' to get laid.

[He could do that on one of the planets if he was really desperate.]

text;

[forcefulgift]

nothing mate. just saying u look like a rough and ready kind of chappy.

'company' is hanging out with ur mates. U just put a bloody dating profile up on the ship network. Totally looks like trying 2 get laid.

voice to text;

[commontype]

Um, alright. If you say so.

If you ain't offerin' to be company or anythin', why you respondin'?
