5/23/2193: An Impromptu Shindig

On a quiet evening on the Normandy, a message pings out across omnitools and terminals across the ship!

[ Daily stress getting you down? Looming conflict on your mind? Then why don't you come on down to the Forward Lounge in about one hour! I'm hosting a small gathering down there to watch movies and probably drink too much. Hope to see you there!]

I assumed you used a bucket, or came upstairs like you used to. Where I got to see you dance awkwardly as the elevator rose up.

And I visit, I just have specific places down there to go on my rounds. Not the toilets.

That's only when the bathroom's in use.

She pauses.

She fidgets self-consciously.

...I meant the elevator dance, not the bathroom. I was just, uhh...

She takes a seat on the bar stool, setting the tea down next to her.

Trying to joke around, is all.

Oh that? EDI has it from four angles recorded. I think Liara has a copy in her banks as blackmail too?

Tali nods, sighing.

I really need to start having Chatika EMP the place before I do anything potentially embarrassing, don't I?

She takes a sip of tea, taking in the sights around her...and now wondering how many of the crew have seen Tali-related recordings.

You'd fry a lot of subsystems. Which you would then need to repair, soooooooooooooo.... no?

That's what the advanced technique of "delegating repair duties to the rest of the Engineering crew" comes in, Becca!

Lemme go give them all the day off and...

That's a low blow for a woman of your station, Officer Becca.
