On board the Karura #2

[oncamera]

Our second week of 'On board the Karura' celebrates the birthday of our captain, Tezuka Kunimitsu. Our ship is led by the EAA's youngest and most talented graduate, although he is oddly sensitive about personal jokes.





Everyone, don't let your guard down.

Oishi, try not to throw the real Tezuka into space if you play 'homicide' with more of the cardboard ones.

Fuji.

Somehow I feel this is a bit disingenuous. Does Tezuka ever not wear his uniform? I've never seen him out of it. I don't think he even owns pajamas.

[spacekarupin]

Happy birthday.

You should probably wear shoes on the bridge, though.

[zonephantom]

Thank you.

(ooc: he is pointedly ignoring that second comment)

[willitblend]

I thought the captain favoured lavender casual wear. This is good data.

[oncamera]

Happy birthday, Tezuka.

[oncamera]

Part of my gift was to suggest an outfit he might be able to relax in.

[oncamera]

He needs to move on to other colours.

[oshitari_yuushi]

This is going to be a thing, isn't it?

Will these be as mobile as Shishido's were? I would like to know in advance if I'm going to find pyjama clad Tezukas rolling into my med-bay.

[oncamera]

There are some events that are impossible to warn against, Oshitari-san.

[oshitari_yuushi]

Of course there are. I believe some of the younger nurses might be pleased; they seem to be starting a collection.

[oncamera]

Of pyjamas? Cutouts? Or a fund for our captain's new wardrobe? I do seem to be missing a few of the Tezuka cutouts.

[oshitari_yuushi]

The second. You seem to have awakened a very specific fetish.

[oncamera]

And I was going to blame Oishi. How wrong of me.

What is the fate of the stolen cutouts? I should write a piece on this for the outreach leaflet.

[oshitari_yuushi]

I didn't realise Oishi had such strong feelings about Tezuka.

I rather suspect they make their way into one of their quarters. Whether or not they become part of a shrine of some sort, I can't be certain.

[oncamera]

He attacked a Shishido cut-out and threw it, headless, into space. I am curious as to whether it was the cardboard or the individual that triggered such latent anger.

And what would one present to a Tezuka shrine? A fishing rod, perhaps.

[oshitari_yuushi]

That does seem a tad excessive, doesn't it?

Perhaps. Lavender fabric is another possibility, if I am to believe rumours.

[oncamera]

It is perhaps something to watch for in the medical bay. Ne, Oshitari-kun, your own birthday is soon?

[shishido_ryou]

What?!

[oncamera]

He briefly mentioned told me all about it.

[space_egg]

That was a one-time incident!

Don't leave them in my doorways then!

[strikes deleted]

[oshitari_yuushi]

... yes. Dare I ask if I am to get the full cardboard treatment?

[shishido_ryou]

That's creepy.

Maybe I'll refer him to Mizuki for counselling.

[shishido_ryou]

hahaha your nurses are always good for a laugh, Doc.

[shishido_ryou]

Fuji... can you maybe stick to posters? The cardboard cutouts reduce the functionality of the walkways and can make moving around the ship more dangerous. Especially if there's an emergency.
