A folded piece of paper will be taped to the door of Crichton's room with his name written on it. If unfolded it will reveal a cartoonish drawing of him looking over his shoulder and sticking his comically large butt out toward the viewer while giving a thumbs up. The only mark is an elegant V at the bottom of the sketch.
Crichton comes upon the drawing taped to his door and does a double-take. Is that... wow. He's not sure if he should be insulted or flattered. He's going to go with flattered. She did get his good side, after all. It's a good thing she signed her initial, otherwise he might have had to go searching the ship for the author. He only knows one person here with the initial V. He's going to text her.
I didn't know you were such a big fan. Might have to get this framed.
He's attached a picture of the drawing still hanging on the door to her so she knows he saw it.
[She's been trying very hard to ignore anything to do with Nobunaga and is slightly annoyed that Crichton has seen fit to bring it up.]
Oh, you mean when he should have recognized I was not myself and said no last month.
[That's not exactly what happened, but she's irritated.]
Or maybe you mean when he acted inappropriately toward me at the wedding. Or maybe you are referring to when he weaponized one of my own abilities against me during the trial, threatened to cut me out of his life, and then forced me to stop him from attacking the captain.
Didn't know the two of you had so much rocky history already. I was mostly talking about the last thing. I'm glad you're willing to give him another chance but I wouldn't blame you either way. God knows I've tried talking some sense into him but he's more stubborn than even my crew on Moya.
I can't imagine anyone having a consistently good relationship with him, he's borderline intolerable. He did try to apologize, but it's not really enough for me. We'll see if I change my mind, I'm not very willing to burn bridges here.
Let's call it an acquired taste. His heart is in the right place even if his head is up his ass.
[The bar for friendship is pretty low for Crichton. But what can you expect when, not too long ago, he was having to share space on his own space ship with his very worse enemy? Intolerable has a much stricter definition for him.]
It is. But it's a little more complicated then that. Happy to tell you about it over drinks. Usually, when I tell people she's a living ship with her own mind and will, they have questions. Easier to lay out the answers in-person.
Sometime after the 10th

I hate to bring up a sore subject, but how are feelings between you and Nobunaga? I've been hearing through the grapevine that things got touchy.

He's lucky I'm even considering forgiving him.

As in, I can't actually get drunk, so don't let me drink the whole bar trying.
