I've been here long enough now to say that this... [ a pause, for emphasis. ] hypothetical spaceship has a devastating shortage of acceptable wine. There's barely even any unacceptable wine, and I believe that, above all else, this can not be tolerated.

I will find a way to fix this problem, so help me, before I have to really find a way to evacuate myself from the premises.

Well, when you find decent wine, be sure to tell a girl, yeah? I'd really appreciate it.

I never said I had any intention of sharing.

[onsilksheets]

What if I had something to trade for it?

[quotate]

Ah, well, then it would depend on what exactly that something might be.

[ hiding like a moron, nyeah nyeah etc. ]

You tell 'em, Moz.

[ look, showing his face over public media like this is a bad idea, it's not hiding okay geez. ]

They need to be informed, Neal.

[ they can hide together-- neal's just has less to do with conspiracy theories. ]

I'm sure Ward and Resnik will get right on it.

[ ohhhh he has plans for you and your hiding, neal... ]

I think we should be allowed a quadrant of the oxygen garden to grow our own grapes. At the very least. We could even start our very own vineyard.

[jilt]

If you do find an evacuation route, you won't decline the pleasure of my company, would you?

[quotate]

It would depend on the exact size of this route, but with enough rationale, I can always make exceptions.

Besides, our captors can't have foreseen every possible escape route. And if we can't find one, then we make one.

I do like a man with a sense for innovation.

[ the flirtation is just an idle thing, because irene flirts as easily as she breathes and sometimes she really just doesn't think about it. ]

And who has good taste in wine.

[blunted]

you want off? i got an airlock with your name on it.

[quotate]

Kind of you, but I think i'll do the fact checking for that on my own.

[blunted]

come on mozzie
let me give you a helping hand.

A friend of mine was making some before he disappeared. There might still be some grapes in the garden.

Now if only we knew the season.

[tumbleweeds]

... Does it... matter? I mean, we're in space.

[adlered]

As someone who regrettably hasn't found this evacuation route and does appear to be sharing space in this hypothetical spaceship with you, I do have to ask, what exactly do you define as acceptable wine?

And I suppose more importantly, would you attempt to find this route even with the wine?

voice;

[quotate]

I might be convinced to find it without wine.

I'll have you know i've surmounted more than a few obstacles without the use of a good Cabernet to accompany me, but really, i'm not as picky as one might think.

voice;

[adlered]

But the wine would be a nice incentive, I imagine.

That still leaves it up to interpretation, since my version of acceptable might be vastly different than yours. [ a beat. ] I'm not necessarily Cabernet, but I have been told I'm rather acceptable company.

Hard cider would take less time to make than wine, wouldn't it? I mean, if you were hoping to solve your shortage in a reasonable window of time.

voice.

[quotate]

Except apple trees don't grow as quickly as grapes, and hopefully i'll be back home before this... ship makes its own orchard.

voice.

[ex_sorted385]

Good point. Even if there aren't grapes, there must be something in the oxygen garden that can be fermented or distilled.

[ Wichita might have been holding off on saying anything for a while, mostly a 'be cool, be cool' period to make sure she isn't a complete tool ]

We do have a few bottles of wine at the bar. Not sure if it's quality wine, but you could come check it out for yourself, if you want. Better than nothing, right?

voice;

[quotate]

I suppose it might have to do in the interim, though i've an idea or two about where I can get some spares considering my entire stash is already gone.

And if no one else is drinking it... [ pff, like he cares if anyone else plans on drinking it. ] I might have to help myself.
