8-157: Merchant Freighter Spanial
Chemistry
Her investigation of the rock yields some useful info on how to work with it.
Can you give me two rolls on Lia’s Perfumer skill please?
NB: These are for later, she hasn’t got time to do anything much before dinner.
Dinner
Sartorial
As she arrives, and as others arrive, her attire attracts many glances.
Kwint actually compliments her appearance, and seems interested in the aesthetic rather than her body. He has apparently found time for a quick shower and is wearing a tight-fitting white T-shirt and equally tight black pants that show off his trim physique.
Gregar has put on a clean, meticulously crisp, white shirt and what seems to be his ‘good’ pants, again with a razor-sharp crease down the leg.
Karmen is wearing her ‘captain’s ensemble’, which is a dark padded jacket with four stripes stitched onto the cuffs and shoulders that Lia has seen her wear in port a couple of times when she wants to look captain-ey.
Jennie has gone for the neat casual look Lia has seen when she has port liberty and wants to look nice, this seems to be about as dressy as her wardrobe gets. (Think Soccer mom having lunch with her friends.)
Body Language
Prrri is dressed in a clean pair of his work coveralls. His ears are slightly flattened and he seems hesitant, standing in a corner near the door.
Music
As Lia approaches Jennie says, “What do you think?”
She names a couple of artists Lia may or may not be familiar with, her intonation making them questions.
11 & 13 vs 13 for Perfumer.
Lia will thank Kwint for the compliment and tell him he looks equally pretty. She’ll give everyone a greeting.
If she recognises any of the music artists, she will recommend something mellow and suitably background.
After spending a moment to assess Prrri, she will head back over to Kwint and ask if he has anything special for Prrri to eat and if it can be put aside for him to eat later in privacy.
Assuming this is ok, she will then wander over to Prrri and inform him of this arrangement. She will reassure him that it’s perfectly fine to be included in the occasion and sit at table without eating. She will accompany this with appropriate body language in an attempt to calm his evident discomfort.
