silas looked on with perplexed second hand embarrassment as cisco talked to his leaves like they were his children. he had previously walked in to ask him a question about something, but now he lost his train of thought, and his only remaining goal was to walk back out without being noticed. one step was apparently too loud as francisco spoke up and silas dropped his cautious posture in defeat. “yeah, sorry about… that. i didn’t think, well. i figured this was some intimate occasion that i shouldn’t have witnessed. are they potty trained yet?” he couldn’t help but crack a joke as an attempt to reduce the awkward situation.
francisco was grateful for how lightly silas decided to take the odd scene, breathy laughter in response as his head dipped down momentarily, accepting the teasing graciously. “you know, they actually aren’t. the seedling containers leak all the time, for proper drainage, but still.” he made his way over to him, extending a hand for a greeting. “good to see you, silas. i feel closer to you now that you’ve seen this.” he kidded, sitting back against a table. “you need something? how’s everything going? been anywhere new?”

raahims:
“my day’s finished. maybe yours is too?” his words were punctuated with a shrug, because it was an easy enough request . . . if you could even call it that. until he thought about how his job of going over things, that he’d repeat and build on until the end of the week, with children was probably a little less important to tending to the ship’s food and medicinal supply. it was a little selfish, wasn’t it? “probably not. i was a little bored, i guess. lesson plans for seven year olds aren’t that time consuming.” he had a grand talent of finding himself in a stammering mess, no matter how comfortable he was with the other person.
francisco smiled, a smile that grew from one that just tugged at the corners to a semi-grin the longer he looked at amir. however, it wasn’t because he was looking at him, but more because he caught onto the thinking that went into his words, so he wanted to encourage him – to not think like that. he reached out to take his hand, swinging a bit as he spoke. “well, you have to keep them engaged and excited about numbers and grammar, don’t you?” it didn’t come as a surprise when he realized that he hadn’t cut his day short to visit his boyfriend in a long time. maybe he needed to fix that or at least, make up for it. “but no, it’s over. i’m off. we can go somewhere – sadly, nowhere new, but somewhere. i smell like dirt, though. and i feel like dating on earth would’ve been a lot easier, huh?”

drfelixholmes:
“Yeah, today’s been slow.” He really had no idea what harvesting aloe would entail, or how long it would take. He couldn’t be away from medical for too long, but it couldn’t take that long to get a plant, right? Felix followed after him, moving past the doors into what had to be storage. The room was significantly cooler, and there were various boxes with labels. “I’m doing okay.” Felix answered automatically. His default answer when asked. He examined a box full of carrots. They had certainly mastered growing plants in space. “Apparently my dad’s taken an interest in my future. So that’s a first.”
the organization of the storage room was almost unbelievably simple. brilliantly simple as francisco liked to describe it. "always just ‘okay.’ a life filled with a series of okay’s.” he remarked, a slight smile pulling one corner of his mouth up. he was no stranger to felix’s defenses. naturally went over to the refrigerator labeled ‘a’ to look for any prepared aloe out of a multitude of others, twenty-five to be exact. “oh, that’s shocking. how so? i mean, you have your job and everything, so... what aspect of your future?” he asked as he searched.

serenachoi:
she pressed her lips together, fighting a blossoming smile at his words. “weird euphemisms,” she commented before setting her bag down beside a desk. “i came here looking for dean. i need more herbs to make medicine with, but alas, he’s nowhere to be seen. probably off doing…who knows what.” she makes herself comfortable beside francisco, watching the water sink into the soil. “i heard talking to plants help them grow. is that what you’re trying to do? or are you just lonely?”
“ah, no worries. i can get you whatever you need,” he offered, soft smile replacing the surprise on his face. “i misspoke, by the way. transpiration’s more like sweating.” he ended with lips still parted because that was a totally unnecessary addition, but he felt the need to correct himself. tucking his hands into his back pockets and shrugging his shoulders, he paused – made it seem like a weighty answer was coming, but it was really a thoughtless response. “hmm, it’s ambiguous – i’m usually alone around here, but lonely? i don’t know. we’re all kind of lonely, the last of humanity and all. talking does help them grow, though. theoretically it should, anyway.”

“i don’t know if plants will understand the whole urinating thing, but you’re doing your damn best there. eh, cisco?” the mechanic filled up the door way of the room that francisco was working in, his arms crossed over his chest as he looked in on what the other man was doing. it was some free time he had and he just needed a break. “don’t apologize to me, man. i’m the one showing up unannounced. i just needed a break. mecha is making me a little stir crazy right now.” his shoulders came up in a small shrug, looking around him to the plants the man was previously talking to. “is it true that talking to them helps? that’s what my mum always told me.”
a short laugh left his lips as the slight tension seeped away from his shoulders, “yeah, my best – i’m the greatest at lugging dirt and water around.” he shook his head, making his way closer to devin. “what’s going on up in mecha? by all means, stay as long as you want.” francisco grabbed a potted seedling along the way, cradling it in his hand. “well, sort of. increased concentration of co2 promotes the uptake, but we’re not really changing the concentration by much, y’know? but hey, just breathe on everything while you’re here.”

hcrmiione:
in that moment in time, hermione could do nothing but stare blankly. it was taking quite some time to decide whether what she was seeing was weird, funny, or both. at one point she decided on both. she neared him and tapped his shoulder. “do they talk back often?” she teased. it was enough to send herself off laughing. “and i didn’t expect to see you telling a plant how to pee, but i guess we’re all full of surprises today.“
francisco squinted in response to her teasing, exaggerated frown masking any tinge of delight. it was nice having hermione around as something of a mentee; it made him feel a little more important aboard the ark, like the knowledge he possessed was very much worth passing along. he gestured at everything around them with a wave of his hand, “you know what? it’s science, it’s scientifically proven that CO2 uptake increases with CO2 concentration, so take that as your lesson.” breaking his frown with a soft sigh and slight smile, “they never respond – well, in rare cases – but nonetheless, i find that talking to them can be very therapeutic.”

ycras:
yara put one foot in front of the other, eyes on the floor as her fingertips curled subconsciously, a hum escaping parted lips as she began to nod her head along to some song she couldn’t remember the name of. yara turned a corner, only to be met with a familiar voice. as francisco began to speak, yara’s head tilted, curiosity piqued. she scrunched her nose once she processed his words, feigning disgust as she began to pout. “bet you didn’t. but continue. go on, act like i’m not even here. i would love to hear the rest of this conversation.” yara pursed her lips, fighting back a short, sharp laugh. “i’ll get out of your hair so you can go back to talkin’ to your plant babies about piss. just wanted to tell you that i found something that belongs…belonged to raven. don’t know why she had it, but…” yara shifted in her spot, the smallest of sighs tumbling from her lips. “has her initials inscribed in it. i want it.” now it was yara’s turn to fidget.
a breathy laugh left francisco’s lips as he shook his head, “piss... nah, i was just about to start talking shit about you – you can’t really stay for that.” his expression faltered, softened into a smile that was hardly turned up at the corners. it was easier to talk about raven on some days and harder on others. maybe today was a hard one, especially since it’s hard to fathom what could’ve turned up so long after her passing. he swallowed, one hand reaching out for a small metal tool beside them, wanting to hold onto something as he composed himself. “what’d you find? is it a necklace? earth stone? where’d you find it?” he asked, discovering that he was paradoxically unable to hold back from asking questions while having trouble finding his words. "i - uh.” it was a precarious situation – of course, his first instinct was to say that he wanted it as well, but yara didn’t even have to tell him about this and she deserved to keep the memento, too. “... can i see it?”

drfelixholmes:
Thanks to an accident last week over in mecha, medical was running low on aloe. Felix could have asked a trainee to go grab it, or put in a request, but they were having a slow day, and he didn’t mind walking over to grab it. When he walked in he was surprised to see that he wasn’t alone. And that he was apparently interrupting something. Felix paused at the door and listened, not sure if he should make his presence known or not. He didn’t have to spend too much time debating it, luckily. “Hey- yeah. Medical’s running low on aloe thanks to mecha last week. So here I am. But, I mean, don’t let me interrupt you.”
francisco shook his head, a little laugh escaping by the end.“oh, yeah, no, you’re not interrupt – let’s go get that aloe!” it was a little embarrassing, having one of the more brilliant people on the ark walk in on him in the midst of... whatever that was, but this person happened to hold the other end of one of his longest standing friendships. "there wasn’t a request, so we’re going to have to go harvest some – you have time for that?” he asked, starting to walk and beckoning him to follow. “but we can check storage first,” he said, pushing open the door to another room. “how are you holding up, dr. felix?”

raahims:
“do i greet them too?” he was only half joking, eyes shifting back and forth between francisco’s and the plants, which had yet to respond. it seemed polite, though. and he was a fairly polite person. “hey. good luck . . . urinating and photosynthesizing. i taught my kids that word not too long ago.” he was squatting now, an easy grin playing at his lips (because if he were stuck between serious and not-so-serious before, well, he was definitely on the furthest opposite side from the former now). “so i know all about it. you’ve got it down to an art— just a few seconds. so i think you’re good and no longer need the supervision of your keeper.”
it was a rather rough greeting, stemming mostly from being caught off guard than anything else, but he quickly reversed gears and smiled broadly at his boyfriend and his own conversation with the plants. instances like these were the ones that made francisco feel so guilty about the times he didn’t feel so loving towards amir. “no longer in need? don’t encourage them to relocate me, but fine – i’ll leave them alone. something else’s got my attention now, anyway,” he said, soft grin still stretching his lips as he extended his hand to pull him up, beckoning to him for an embrace. “so, what brings this great surprise visit?”

bent at the knee, francisco hovered above a tray of seedlings with a watering can in hand. “so, your root system is going to suck up all this water, the roots are like your mouth, and you’re going to get what you need, do some photosynthesizing, and then it’s going to transpire out of you, like you’re urinating.” the conversation wasn’t loud, but it was loud enough for anyone less than five feet away to understand that it was a conversation with the plants. he stood when he was done watering them, brushing his palms on his jeans. “oh, fuck,” a murmur under his breath before he cleared his throat, “hey – didn’t expect you to drop by today... didn’t expect anyone.”

hi i’m jen ( pst + she/her ) n that’s all i have to say abt myself sdfkljsdf, i’m excited to write with everyone though, o i watched like 2 seasons of the 100 or like 3 up until the robot hologram lady but idr anything :( o and i never watched the show matt’s in either sry yalls :(
❝ ——・✧ ( matthew daddario ) may the ark provide you a good life ( francisco nolan ) ! you are now at the age of ( twenty-six ), and identify as a ( cismale ). around the ark you are known as the ( noceur ), and you’re a ( jocular ) citizen even if you’re sometimes ( reticent ) ! with your contribution to the ( agro ) station as ( a cultivator ) we’re going to make this place a better home for us, and our future generations. ( jen, she/her, pst )
noceur – one who sleeps late or not at all
honestly the most simple definition right but i cbf to look for a masterlist
cultivator / curator – maybe i should’ve called him a botanist or a farmer idk but he’s an expert on plants and growing them in space! makes sure all the species are thriving and all that. spends a lot of time talking to the crops bc not many are awake in the dead of night!
jocular – fond of or characterized by joking; humorous or playful.
reticent – not revealing one's thoughts or feelings readily.
so francis/frankie/chico/whatever the fuck are nicknames for francisco idk ;(
anyway he’s basically this v lighthearted guy, kind of makes you feel like you know him and all because he’ll joke w/ you a lot n be nice, long-winded talks about things, sounds like he’s sharing but it’s never rly anything... about himself... he just doesn’t lemme figure out why bc i’m jst um. doing this as i go : )
okay his other half <3 got floated for doing the thing raven and finn did with the oxygen n lost some oxygen except she was older so floated.... maybe 5 yrs ago? 21 is a good age. he never talks about it. ever. although he does think about her every single day.
this is a dedicated self help book: i think that maybe, he’s just trying to build as nice of a life as he can for himself and has been for the past 5 yrs. he’s nice, people r nice, life is okay, but it just. will never be the same. also i imagine the ark is a pretty desolate place to be! planet earth nuked, all of humanity on this one spaceship ( as far as they know ), limited oxygen supply, rationing, etc. etc. so he puts on his happy face and sometimes it works, sometimes he’s sad and talks to the plants in private :’(
o ya isn’t it so funny that his mobile theme rly looks like the author’s about on a book cover
o his parents got saved 2 the ark or something idk how this works but ig they were scientists n normal upbringing i guess they brought him 2 the plant nursery a lot
he doesn’t really think of himself as exceptionally smart or anything special, funnier/more handsome/etc than anyone else like obv he’s aware oh yes these are good traits that i possess but not ... over anyone yknow, like he just does what he’s supposed to do/what’s right.
o his birthday was.... YESTERDAY! whenever that was. 8/8 and he thinks it’s weird tht he was born on earth! but all he remembers is the spaceship :( anyway he’s freshly 26
o a hc: he rly good at drawing plants and flowers bc his <3 was like . how tf are u gonna be a botanist but not even be able 2 draw. so he practiced n practiced n it was part of how they even got 2gether aw. like hs sweeties. but if u ask him 2 draw a person it’s gonna look fugly as hell
idek if they’re allowed 2 draw or if that takes up resources :( o well that makes the whole notion more romantic
o since i see some nationality things... n idk wtf matt d is he some types of different whites... imma just make him a canadian LDFSSDF
idk what else 2 say basically summary: he is nice n humble n maybe funny idk no emo broodiness no sign of sad :( he’s jus Chill
possible connections (crossed off = taken):
someone that was maybe his other half <3 ‘s best friend (yes ‘<3′ is apart of their name) n so they sometimes jst talk about their feelings n stuff together n maybe they weren’t close or maybe even disliked each other before everything OR maybe they still don’t like each other, but rly they’re the only other one that knows how the other feels/who they’re missing yknow ok let’s make them NOT like each other thanks!!!!
o okay ‘it isn’t the same but it isn’t love’ ok maybe they dating and it’s pleasant and all but rly it’s a charade n maybe they keep hanging on bc IT WORKS but it’s just. not passionate, it’s not love, so maybe they gotta break up. ‘it’s a waste of time’ OPPOSITE OF WILL THEY WON’T THEY as in will they won’t they BREAK UP
o wouldn’t it be so cool for francisco 2 be like. this happy mentor buddy thing 2 someone cuz i noticed some of yalls characters r emo as shit right, but then one night they discover he’s a FAKE... sort of ? n that disrupts. stuff yeah ha
o maybe someone who gets themselves into shit n he always goes n gets them before they get into trouble n he’s just Tired. of doing that right but he keeps doing it bc he’s been doing this for forever n idk big blow up xD? responsible old man matt d activate!
on the other hand, someone he trusts n knows is also responsible enough so that he can chill out too? weeds n alcohols lmao, maybe theyre best friends forever and i mean like, forever, maybe they were neighbors growing up on the ark
lemme put some simple ones in here 2 bc im down n we can develop ya? o wow there aren’t many i’m sorry . but yall got wc too so we’re good ! !!
friends
new
childhood - cut off or just long lasting
neighbors
coworkers
crushes/romantique interests but he dating someone so that’s risqué :O – maybe we do this on chemistry pls thanks idk <3
#cerointro#✰ – ooc.#idk why i typed like that for the whole intro!#i'm gonna go to bed but i'll be on tmrw afternoon yeah!
