[The transmission opens to a shot of Pepper in the gardens, featuring a wide open area of green that she means to transform in the next 24 hours or so. She honestly a little nervous about making this announcement--it's entirely possible that more of the crew are tired than not, and she certainly can't blame them. They've just been through something pretty trying, and there's the distinct chance that some would rather shut out any hints of the particular holiday coming up rather than celebrate it.
But for those that might, albeit in a less than traditional way, Pepper wants to put something together. She also wants to make her job worth something, and after the whole mess on Emiri, the crew needs a break.]
Good afternoon, Moira crew. I'm Pepper Potts, the Chief Morale Officer on board. For those of you not aware, tomorrow is February 14th. On Earth this is an annual holiday called Valentine's Day, which celebrates romantic partnerships. I'm very aware that most of us are probably tired of being forced into some sort of connection thanks to our recent encounter with Link'd and all that entailed, but I'd still like to put something together to celebrate--not necessarily romance, but friendship and camaraderie as well.
The idea that even so far from home, we're not alone.
[Never mind the murder that's happened among the crew or other rumored attacks. They need something to counter that, otherwise this trip is going to be all the worse.]
With that in mind, I'd like to put together a sort of dinner and dance, or a dinner and enjoy-the-music night, if that's more your speed. It'll be held in the gardens thanks to permission from our caretaker, and everyone is welcome to come, provided you have medical clearance and are not otherwise assigned to some sort of duty. Those of you who are supposed to be in the mess hall are not excused as per the Captains--[oh, and that gets a tight smile; Pepper had tried to get them a night off, but no luck]--but you may trade shifts if you wish to attend.
Of course, since this is all last minute, I need some help as well. [And here she references a list, because what is Pepper Potts without her paperwork?] All Morale staff, if you would please check-in; there's plenty of work to be done, provided you're able. I'd also like to get with whoever is in charge of the mess hall to see what sort of meal can be put together; if nothing else, I'd like a way to serve at least some of dinner out here. If someone or several someones can provide bartending services that would be very helpful, and of course there is setting up before hand and cleaning up afterwards.
I'm also in the market for music, decorations, tables, chairs--pretty much anything you can think of. [Well, she did say this is last minute, right? And unfortunately, Pepper lacks her contact list of vendors from home. She honestly hates going about something like this in such a fashion, no planning, no resources, but it's important--not just for the crew, but for herself.
Otherwise she's going to spend Valentine's and the hours leading up to it focusing on the fact that her boyfriend got impaled, and no one really wants that.]
Thank you in advance for your time and efforts. Hopefully any future events of this nature won't be quite as impromptu, but I think that we can still pull together something good. I'll be in the gardens should anyone want to contact me in person.
Again, thank you.
[And so ends the feed.]

Great Morale Officer Papyrus, checking in! What an excellent suggestion; I think a party of this caliber is exactly what the crew needs! I have Mess Hall duties today and tomorrow afternoon, but I'll still be available!

I could play guitar or piano, if we could move the one I got into the mess hall! It's really cool looking, anyway.

I'm the senior Beverage Dissemination Officer, so I can tend for a shift. Jacky Faber is my junior officer, but if any volunteers want to step up, I am happy to concede the bar. Just don't let any of them get into the maple mead.

What Pepper's describing has a ring of familiarity to it. Dancing and music. That's very much a part of her life. Part of her life back at Pryce's club, to be specific. And if she can clutch the familiar, maybe she won't entirely drown in this place.
So here she is on the network, a girl all of nineteen, wearing just her thermo. Her hair is long and brown, with a single braid over her right shoulder. She's pretty, but in an intentionally 'trashy' sort of way, at the moment. A bit heavy on the makeup.]
Do you need a dancer?

If you need help with the decorations, I can help. I'm really good with flower chains, but I don't think we have enough flowers.
Um... I can move heavy things too, if you need me to help.
