[markwatney]

WHO: Mark Watney, but NOT REALLY
WHERE: 6I Inn front room
WHEN: 20 June 2018
OPEN TO: ALL - See below
NOTE: This is mostly just a post for pot luck sign-ups! I'm not looking to thread Mark here, I have notifs turned off. IF YOU WANT YOUR REPLY TO BE AN OTA, YOU SHOULD PROBABLY NOTE THAT.

So, it's safe to say some weird shit has been happening lately. Weirder than normal, I mean. For over a year, the group of us was effectively trapped in a canyon, and now it seems like the people in charge want to come up with any reason for us to venture outside of those original perimeters. I woke up in a decrepit tree house city a few weeks back. Half the village has hairless alligator dogs following them around all day. And, maybe most notably, we've had a sudden influx of new people.

We need some kind of party. We're a tight-knit community, but gathering together to de-stress and get to know everyone seems like it's maybe a little overdue. It's raining today, but it looks like the clouds are going to blow over by tomorrow.

Here's hoping, anyway.

On the blackboard in the inn, I write another notice:

COME TO THE CRAB BOIL
TOMORROW EVENING, FRONT LAWN OF THE INN
Please bring a dish if you can!
(Sign up below ↓)

Reminder: Add your name to the census
Please keep the book on the bar

Below this, tucked into the corner of the board's frame, I leave a sign-up sheet and a stubby pencil.

I add my own name to get started:

MARK WATNEY - Cucumber salad & seasoned potatoes

I won't actually eat the potatoes, but other people aren't as sick of them as I am and we've got a ton.

[Just a sign-up, not an OTA]

STEVE ROGERS - KP duty and dishes

[ because Steve is not a gourmet cook. ]

[oorah]

Hotdog [ with a picture of a hotdog drawn next to it NO THAT'S NOT WHAT HE'S MAKING but he's working on it :)]

- scalloped potato casserole with broccoli

[freightcars]

[ He can't say he's confident enough in his own cooking to contribute, so upon the board he writes: ]

[notbadcakeboss]

[There really isn't even a question about what he'll bring.]

PEETA MEELARK - Fresh bread

[thekittenqueen]

[While her cooking is better, it isn't refined enough that she feels comfortable cooking for everyone. There was something else she could provide that they might enjoy more.]

MARGAERY TYRELL - Fruit salad

[pharmakis]

Circe - Tuber and water goose stew

[Whether the rest would like it or not would be interesting to see. It was similar at least to something she had eaten on Aiaiai.]

[theluckygirl]

[ If there is anything Claire can make it's a damn good pie. ]

Claire Temple - 2 Pies, Blueberry and Raspberry

[thegreatexperiment]

[Sam signs up with some bemusement, in her elegant, curly handwriting.]

Samantha Moon (you know, the resident vampire) - Potato vodka

[frankensteinian]

[There's something he made before, and he knows the ingredients to make it again are plentiful.]

Erik Lehnsherr - potato pancakes

[aka latkes, but he doesn't call them that]

[seekingcrocodile]

Killian Jones - Bramble Dunfillan

[It's sailors' food, and probably the only thing he knows how to make that anyone else wants to eat.]

[dann_0]

[ First it comes to himself. Danny has a hard time picking. He knows he can't exactly make it the way he'd like but he can try. ]
Danny Williams - Pasta and tomato sauce

[ Then underneath in the same handwriting ]
Steve McGarrett - Grilled fresh fish

[super_seal]

[ The next time Steve is in town he sees the sign-up sheet and that he's already been volunteered for something. He can't help but grin and nod to himself. Danny knows him well and it's what he would have picked for himself. ]
