Ficlet: Notice Board
And this one was for last week's
b7friday challenge to let the characters do the writing. 222 words set in season 1.
Notice Board
This notice board is for the use of any crewmember to communicate with those on different shifts.
Blake
I cannot think of any reason to do so.
Avon
Has anyone seen my pink negligee?
Jenna
Unfortunately not. But I bet you wish Blake had.
Vila
You're on thin ice, Vila.
Blake
Found it. Sorry. BTW the port drive is a little sluggish.
Jenna
Who ate the leftover vinders?
Vila
I'm delighted to see that this board is as effective as most of Blake's ideas.
Avon
Me.
Gan
Avon, the port drive is worse. I can now hear a whine in one of the fission units.
Jenna
I was looking forward to that as dessert.
Cally
How many times do I have to report the port drive problems?
Jenna
There's a jar of old gherkins and some plum jam at the back of the stasis unit.
Vila
As many as you wish. I merely note that you have yet to express a request.
Avon
Thank you, Vila. Lovely!
Cally
All right, Avon, you pedantic, arrogant, supercilious bastard. FIX THE DRIVE!
Jenna
[applause from the sidelines!]
Vila
And you can help, smarty-pants.
Jenna
Do I really deserve that?
Avon
I certainly don't.
Vila
Right, you lot. As none of you seem capable of using this board for its intended purpose, I'm taking it down.
Blake
