spohkh | Personal Log #12 - Planning [Video]

[Spock fiddles with the journal for a moment, making certain that the message is broadcast to everyone but Nico Robin.]

Greetings and salutations everyone. It is my hope that everyone has recovered from the latest Malnosso experiment, as from what I heard from others, I do not envy your experiences.
At this time, I find myself with a request for those of you who are familiar with Miss Nico Robin. It has come to my attention that due to recent events, Miss Robin's emotional disposition has greatly suffered, and it is my wish to see it improved. From what I understand of various cultural habits, it is common to utilize various festive activities to improve emotional morale. These activities should consist of conditions that are agreeable to Miss Robin, so if there is anyone who is aware of what Miss Robin enjoys, please inform me as soon as you can.
I am asking for assistance in planning this gathering... I believe the proper term is 'party'? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, as well as refraining from telling Miss Robin about this.
The time and location for this gathering will soon be disclosed.

[Spock lifts his hand in a Ta'al.]
Peace and long life.

Well, first off, we are not using all the gibber-jabber in the invites when we send them out. Lesson one - invites: short, sweet, to the point.

_{[ He's poking fun at you Spock, but you know he'll help, he just has to rib you a little bit. It's how they function. ]}

I beg your pardon Captain, what do you mean by 'gibber-jabber'?
[Have an eyebrow... and an unimpressed look. He knows you're making fun.]

Basically that big long speech before you finally asked for the help. You're lucky I know you the way I do, since I actually understood it. You want help cheering up a friend, and you think having a party is the way to go.

Though, you know, you didn't exactly say what "emotional disposition" she was in.

I implied that her emotional disposition was a negative one Captain. As for the reason, that is entirely her business, and information that I will not disclose at this time.

Are you.... offering your assistance?
[Really?]

Right, and "negative" means a lot of things, Spock. It's about as ambiguous as you can get.

But yeah, sure. I don't really know her, but if you give me some basics I think I can help hammer something out.

If you know me as well as you claim you do, then you are aware of how much I do not enjoy impeding on someone's privacy. This was difficult enough as it is.

Do you know a Mister Marco?

Come on, Spock, lighten up. You're trying to cheer her up, that's a good thing. I mean, assuming you aren't going to make her burst into tears from this either.

Hmm, don't think so. What's he look like? Or sound like, maybe. Could have heard him over the journal.

I was merely checking to see if we have any common ground for Miss Robin. It seems that we do not... however, your assistance would be invaluable Captain.

Would you happen to have a location in mind? I originally thought our home would suffice, but would be inadequate depending on how many people attend... and the weather is getting rather cold for it to be held out of doors.

Well, that kind of depends. If we do it outside during the day, it might not be so bad. But if you want to do it at night, yeah, it might get a bit to cold....

Maybe we could talk to some of the business owners ask if we can use their spaces? Some of them should be big enough to host a party. One of the cafes or Good Spirits maybe...

Or perhaps the library?

[Spock wasn't joking. At all.]

_{[ He knows he's not joking, and that's the sad part. ]}

Do you want people to talk to each other? Then no. Libraries are not where parties are held.

["Due to recent events"...

...she shouldn't have to feel guilty. She shouldn't at all. She can't help what she doesn't remember, but she knows she and Usopp are part of it.

That this guy is doing this, though.]

You really think she appreciates the whole village being told she's having a bad time?

[She would murder someone who did this to her.]

[...uh oh.]

[Anyone who asks if the proper term for a 'gathering' is 'party' needs help. Not that Elizabeth has much experience planning parties, but the fact that she had to wade through all the formal expression says to her that any advice would help.]

I went to a party recently where there was music and dancing, mostly. And some food too. Does she like dancing?

[Spock takes a moment in an attempt to recognize the voice... no, he doesn't know this person.]

Not that I am aware, however, I have not been given any evidence to the contrary.

May I as who this is?

Whether or not she appreciates, it is public knowledge, just as I can tell that you are now upset. A community works together to improve the conditions when a member suffers.
Do you truly think that if everyone gathers in support of her, she will turn away?

[Spock wasn't being condescending... he was genuinely curious.]

What about the Dome? I could program a room suited to her tastes?
[He tacks a question on the end of that, because he really wants Jim's opinion.]

Hmmm, yeah, that could work. We'd have to make sure that everyone know we're taking the rooms, but that's actually not a bad idea. Just have to also make sure no one decides to pull something and mess with the sim.

[Oh, well, it might be incredibly awkward if there was dancing and Robin was like Booker in that she 'didn't dance'. So something else might be necessary...]

Ah, I'm sorry, my name's Elizabeth.

Publ-- how is it public knowledge? Only because you just made it public knowledge. [You're darn right she's upset >:| Mind you, she's projecting just a little.]

I find it rather curious why you are clearly against this. May I inquire as to your name Miss...?

[Spock's tone doesn't change.... ever.]

Of course the proper term is party. Why didn't you just say that sooner? [ That alone would have merited a comment, even if this guy weren't talking about his supposed probably definitely future crewmate. And since he's doing that, too, well. It's hard to turn the other way, so much. ]

Well, a party needs balloons. No party without balloons. And decorations. And pie.

My word Spock of the Enterprise. You should inquire with Ikki.

Perhaps, if you wish to cheer her up, send a clown. One can recognize them by their red noses and striking face make-up.

[Nonononononononono.]

[Spock, no. No.... Please tell him you did not just tell all of Luceti that Robin was in a bad mood.]

[Ahahahahahahahah this is all his fault, he should have done it himself, what the fuck was he thinking? No......]
