[ attached is a very tacky bathroom mirror selfie of nicky and joe: joe with one arm wrapped around nicky from behind, nicky's arms resting lightly overtop joe's, hands linked, tee shirt bunched between their fingers; joe is leant over nicky's shoulder, kissing his cheek and, even from the side view of his grin smooshed against nicky's cheek, looking just completely besotted, it's honestly gross and they should be stopped. if nicky's cheeks are tinged pink it is clearly because joe accosted him after his shower and he's still overheated. ]

[ Well that is so damn adorable. ]

Ey man, happy for you two.

What's baklava?

[malta]

Thank you! I am also happy. Smiley face

No, smiley face. SMILEY FACE! Colon close parenthesis

Fuck

Baklava is a pastry, filo, honey, and nuts.

[ thanks for going on this brain to text journey with him right now, peter. ]

[spacedisaster]

[ Yusuf can't see it but Peter is laughing his ass off. Not in a mean way. Yusuf's attempts are cute, truly. ]

Emojis are hard, take your time, man. But I get what you meant! ☺️☺️☺️

Ohhhh that sounds super good. Sure you don't mind if I have some? I promise I won't eat too much.

[ You said the magic word, HONEY. He will eat anything with sugar. ]

They were made for more than just myself, Andy, and Joe.

Please, feel free.

[tochnyy]

is it sweet?

[malta]

Yeah, it's soaked in honey

[tochnyy]

and if there's none left, how do we get more?

[malta]

Ask Nicky nicely to make some, he knows every variation of the recipe

[romancekiller]

I'm not sure what baklava is but that's nice he made enough for everyone.

[malta]

Nicky is the kindest man I have ever met

[ joe pls ]

[romancekiller]

Yeah, I got that much. [meaning she agrees because the gesture of making food for everyone speaks for itself] It's good that you have someone from home here with you. [she doesn't really know him aside their encounter where she helped patch him up but having someone from home seems to make being on the station easier.]

[malta]

This is the longest I've been apart from him and I don't think I was coping well

I mean, I thought it was a good idea to try to catch a knife, didn't I?

[ you can call him stupid to his face, clarke, he gets it. ]

You're gonna have to teach me how to make that one. Seems like all Andy-san ever wants...

[And he's honestly curious at this point.]

Don't worry though I've been feeding her good food, too.

un: nicky / text

[ghiro]

Be careful, she has a bottomless stomach and an appetite that would put a bear coming out of hibernation to shame.

I can give you some of my recipes but even Andy can't only exist upon baklava. [aka he won't let her.]

[oiorpata]

[ she's gonna find nicky and give him a noogie. then she's gonna eat baklava alone for a week now out of SPITE. ]

Fucking watch me, Nicky.

[ghiro]

I would rather not.

[essenceofdeadlybeasts]

[He laughs at that. He could see it.]

I'd like to learn and get better at the deserts, non-Asian food. Could be fun.

Don't worry, I cook a lot of meals and feed them to her. They come in large portions. She'll live just fine.

[ghiro]

You could teach me some of your dishes and I'll teach you some of the dishes she likes and some of my own favorites.

Desserts and meals.

OMG YAS HI NICKY! Yusuf has only had lovely things to say about you. ;D

un: nicky / text

[ghiro]

Hi

So I hear. I'm not surprised, he has a poet's soul. He isn't quiet about any of his feelings.. it's one of the traits I most admire in him.

[catchatting]

He's a sweetie! Totally reminds me of my brother, Behrad, except I think Yusuf is a much better fighter. Don't tell Behrad that if you meet him some time, though. He'd make that little disappointed baby brother face. I can't handle it. I think that's part of the reason he got recast on our family's reality show tbh.

[ghiro]

He was always very talented in battle, but time has made him an expert. I promise the secret is safe with me.

Reality show?

Food? I can go for food. Always. But uh. That's great that you have a familiar face though. Someone you know from home. That's gotta help with adjusting to everything here with the space station and missions and all.

[Clearly. The important thing though is the baklava. Also that others are getting their familiar faces from home. That's nice. Ed is still unsure how he would feel if he found anyone from home here but still.]

[malta]

Thank you, I did feel not quite whole without him

You should try to baklava

[chrysology]

I know what you mean. It's weird. Being here without Al for me. My younger brother. We're always together, back home.

I will! Not sure I've tried it before but that won't stop me at least tasting to see what they are like.
