The circle of chairs is out in the main bar. In the middle are a selection of fruit pies, with a choice of ice cream, or cream, or custard, or none of the above.

Behind the pies are a large sign.

Guppy is cutting thick slices of the yummy plum pie.

[patterns_bloom]

Alana nibbles on a slice of apple pie with vanilla ice cream, appearing distracted. She'll focus on someone should they show up, though.

[guppy_sandhu]

"Hey. You okay?" Guppy asks, when they have a quiet moment.

[patterns_bloom]

"Hi, Guppy," Alana says, easing into a smile. "I'm all right, thanks. I'm just distracted. I finally told Security about Dr. Lecter, and they told me that torturing me about the future was outside business and to call them the next time he tries. So I'm a little nervous. I don't want to cause trouble."

[guppy_sandhu]

"He's still bothering you?" Guppy asks, in alarm.

Cassian sits down beside her with his plate of pie, he's happy for the food but the idea of this is strange to him, "Alana, any progress on your question?"

[patterns_bloom]

"Cassian," Alana says, smiling as he sits down. "Hi. Yes, I dropped a note off at the bar for Security, and both of the women I talked to said that Dr. Lecter bringing up my future to me counted as outside business. The Security members are looking into setting up a channel on the T-Minus system so we can contact them if we're in trouble."

[childofrebellion]

"That's good. That's what should happen. What's T-Minus, a kind of comm?"

Its how those who protect are meant to work, helping not adding to the problem.

"Hey, so, you know, these are for later, with tea, and... things. Unless you don't like cherries, I didn't ask, but... cherries are pretty awesome." Oswin, with her power of babble, presents Alana with a covered plate and a grin.

[patterns_bloom]

Alana beams at Oswin and her babble. "Why, thank you! I love cherries. What is the gift you've given me? And would you like a seat?"

[souffle_girlek]

"I was making scones, and there were cherries, so... hey presto, cherry scones. They go best with black tea." Oswin explains, sprawling in the seat she chooses.

[childofrebellion]

Cassian comes up from the garage and walks over to the pies, he's never cooked many desserts, its hard to find the makings.

They smell good and he's realizing he actually never had lunch but stops at the sign. Life support seems like it should involve bacta and medics asking questions.

He picks up a pie that has a spicy smell to it and tries to figure out what's the expected behavior here.

[guppy_sandhu]

"Hi there." Guppy says. "Do you want any custard?"

[childofrebellion]

"What flavors are there?"

He's trying to identify and while some things are vaguely familiar, he suspects most of the food is from Earth.

[guppy_sandhu]

"Er, this one is plum, I think, and this one is some sort of apple, and this is cherry. Bonnie made them." Guppy says.

Cadfael is enjoying a bowl of ice cream, this being yet another thing they don't have in the 12th century.

[irish_vagabond]

Free pie?

Fuck yeah, free pie!

Cassidy begins to load up a plate with a large slice of apple pie and two scoops of vanilla ice cream. Maybe three.

He's...not really here for the life support part of the life support group, just the free pie.

Although of course, he'll be glad to chat with anyone who might think he's hogging the ice cream.

[patterns_bloom]

Alana, seated at a nearby table with her own slice of apple pie and single scoop of ice cream, watches the display of gluttony. She laughs, cheerful, and gestures to the chair opposite her.

"Need a seat?"

[irish_vagabond]

Three scoops is enough, Cassidy. He looks up from licking ice cream off his thumb, like a child caught in the act.

"Oh. Uhm."

He glances around. He was totally going to sit down and not abscond with the free food!

"Sure, thanks!" he says brightly.

And plus, y'know, attractive woman.

Plate in one hand and fork in the other, he goes to sit in the offered chair.

"Funny how I tend to dither over whether to use a fork or a spoon when I'm eatin' pie with ice cream."

[patterns_bloom]

Alana smiles at him. "You're welcome to use both, if you're willing to dirty both utensils," she says, eyes glittering with mischief. She extends a delicate hand. "Dr. Alana Bloom."

[imthepilot]

Bodhi spots the sign and comes over, peering curiously at the pies. He takes a tiny amount of each to try before having to abandon his plate to prevent Kyber from climbing into the bowl of cream. "Kyber!"

[a_rare_benedictine]

Cadfael reaches out for the little creature, handling him with great care.

"Cats will do these things", he says warmly.

[imthepilot]

Kyber yowls at being denied the cream. But he likes being patted. "I'm so sorry. Here?" He holds his hands out to take the kitten. "He keeps finding ways to get into trouble."

[notapilot]

Sam comes in, a little hurried and worried he's late for the meeting, but happy nonetheless.

Oh, pie!

[guppy_sandhu]

"Hey, how's it going?" Guppy asks, smiling reassuringly.
