While I know there are many more pressing matters at hand, there's been a distinct problem I've noticed onboard in the most recent karaoke nights.  I won’t name names, but I have noticed a lack of rhythm that can be rectified with a little practice. Luckily, I am here to help, and there is no singing required.

This Friday, I'll be hosting a group salsa class in the community room.   You don't need to have danced before; all prior skills you need are the ability to count to eight and how to stand up straight.

All are welcome, though anyone who is judgmental towards others just learning will be asked to leave.  I don't have patience for that, and it's supposed to be fun.

See you Friday at seven.  Wear comfortable shoes.

I don't think I would get as many takers.

[adequacies]

It’s all in the advertising.

[searlait]

Come to the community room on Saturday to watch me walk around in heels.

“Learn how to crush (your selected gender here) beneath your feet and look amazing doing it.”

[searlait]

Some skills can't be taught.

[adequacies]

They’ll be forced to spectate and like it.

[searlait]

A morale boost for the ship.

[adequacies]

Your benevolence is inspiring.

[jinking]

That would draw too big of a crowd for the common room, ma'am. It'd be standing room only.

[searlait]

I'm sure you can handle standing for an extended period.

[jinking]

I could handle whatever you asked of me, Ms. Séarlait.

[searlait]

Are you sure? I don't like to be disappointed.

[jinking]

I'm positive. I would never let you down.

[searlait]

Confident. I'll let you know if I ever need you to handle anything.

[jinking]

Please do, ma'am.

[searlait]

You're also welcome to take initiative to prove your capabilities.

[jinking]

I'd be happy to. Is there anything in particular you need help with?

[searlait]

Initiative, Foxworth. Find something you think I'd appreciate.

[jinking]

I'll get right on it, ma'am.

[searlait]

Good boy.

Lash.

It's going to take a full week for him to remember his own name now.

Lash.

[searlait]

Only a week? Disappointing.

[jinking]

Ms. Séarlait.

[jinking]

There is one thing, ma'am. I've noticed that the door to your office tends to squeak. And I know I'm not some Engineering guru, but I bet some oil would take care of that real quick. I'd be happy to stop by and fix it for you some time.

Fear

[searlait]

Very observant. You can stop by tomorrow and I'll supervise your lubrication of my entry.
