"Those are synonyms," Dylan protested. "Pretty, sexy. Alluring, attractive, and tantalizing would work too. But, very well; henceforth you shall be the 'sexy recon girl.'" He smiled, then shifted his gaze back to the pot when she asked about the food situation.

"Ah yes, the dreaded Cold Pasta Incident of 3681. Haven't seen the Captain so mad since the Soggy Cereal Crisis of '79." He shrugged. "Not to point fingers, but the food was perfectly hot when when I asked you to bring it to her. Anyhow, it should be another minute. It's stew. We've got meat, potatoes, some carrots, a bit of spice. Exciting stuff, I know."

He directed another glance at the pot. "So what's Booker done this time?" Beneath the gold, the Bitter Steel.

"What's Booker done this time? More like what hasn't Booker done. He turned the gravity off different parts of the ship and then watched everyone struggle to go about their tasks." Kat chuckled, remembering some of their expressions.

"Managed to catch the Captain, too. She wasn't happy. Stormed into the cockpit and started swinging. I left before she could accuse me of encouraging it."

Kat chuckled again. "I wasn't, by the way. At least, not originally. And about the Cold Pasta Incident, I'd like to say, for the hundredth time , that I went straight from here to her quarters. Wasn't my fault Booker distracted me on the way and slowed my pace."

"If we think hard enough, we can find a way to blame Booker for just about anything, I'm sure," Dylan remarked. He put the pot on a different burner and turned the stove off. Then, he set down a series of bowls on the counter, and began spooning servings of the meal. "At least he had enough sense not to interfere with the kitchen." Beneath the gold, the Bitter Steel.

"Probably true enough, but he's got a good heart," Kat replied. The pilot had never once disguised his intentions about getting her and the Captain undressed, preferably at the same time. That said, he had never done anything to make her uncomfortable, and she could assume the same of the Captain.

Kat couldn't contain her laughter at Dylan's next comment. "Oh, love, but can you imagine if he had? Potato bits everywhere!" Her laughter faded to a chuckle, before fading out entirely. "S'pose I should start the rounds dropping food off. You wanna take the Captain's room? I'm not sure I'm ready to face her yet, not after how pissed she looked when I left."

"Hmm... alright." Dylan said with the finality of a man who just accepted a suicide mission. "It's been nice knowing you, Kat. If I die, do not weep for me." Then he took two of the bowls, stuck a spoon into each one, and then walked toward the door... only to stop just before exiting. "If I live, I don't suppose you could help me wash the dishes?" Beneath the gold, the Bitter Steel.

Kat shrugged. "Sure, as long as I don't have to do the dishes if you die. I'll claim your death was too 'impactful' on me or something." Another chuckle escaped her lips, before she blew a kiss in his direction. "Don't forget about me while you're gone!"

The woman then grabbed some spoons and placed them into the remaining bowls. She walked over to the intercoms and announced to the rest of the ship (barring the Captain's quarters, who knew what kind of mood Jaden was in) that "Dinner's served, lovelies! Come to the kitchen and I'll getcha fixed right up. Oh, and Cap'n, if you're hearing this, just go right on back to your room. Food'll be there in a moment, warm as the fire in the engine."

Humming to himself, Dylan walked through the corridors of the ship until he arrived at the Captain's Quarters. With both of his hands occupied, he then proceeded to 'knock' on the door by lightly kicking it. "Someone call for a delivery?" he asked. Beneath the gold, the Bitter Steel.

((Accepted, intro post when ready!))

Jaden enters her quarters, exhaling sharply with relief. She takes a moment after the door slides shut to simply stand there, staring across her quarters in silence. Finally, she turns towards the little door that leads into the shower. With swift movements, she begins stripping off items of clothing on her way to the shower, not bothering to put them away properly. She flicks on the switch, turning the water on before entering.

Exhaling a sigh of relief, she closes her eyes and lets the warmth soak into her as the water drenches her from head to toe, her copper hair clinging to her back and shoulders. She had not mentioned it, but it was concerning to her that the A'kasa seemed so desperate to get hold of their research supplies. It wasn't like the Ghiak Feith were still around. But one could never be certain.

She reaches for the shampoo, and begins washing it through her hair. She is all too aware of how Booker sees her. She has yet to do anything about the particular attention he pays to her, mostly due to the fact that she needs him to fly the ship. And when he rests, it is usually her keeping an eye on where the ship is headed. So really, it would be impossible in their current circumstances.

Finishing up her shower, Jaden steps out through a billowing cloud of steam just in time to hear the knock at the door. She exhales sharply through her nose, then wraps a towel around herself before flicking the switch to slide the door open. "Come in."
