i think itd be funny if the crew gets invited to a fancy shindig, a high society party, and Gao Xue goes 'okay, everyones got an outfit that works for this, and the general social positions to navigate this, EXCEPT for Zayvia Eskarra, so we need to buy them a nice outfit and teach them about social graces' and then Zayvia is literally the only member of the party who gets into 0 trouble throughout the evening despite not following all the rules Xue told them about.
#story blogging#zayvias in a corner making awkward but polite conversation with some rich guy#and when the guy makes a rude comment about them clearly not knowing anything about the area#rather than taking it as an insult Zayvia goes yeah! I don't! I was raised in a different system#and that instantly changes the convo because now everyone in that corner wants to hear about their home system#and now any social faux pas Zayvia makes are excused as a cultural difference. the poor gunner!#so it ends up being an evening of exchanging information about the two systems#and at some point someone comes up to Zayvia to ask about the crew possibly taking on a job for her#and they go 'You should probably ask my captain. She's ove-er... uh... wait where the fuck is she'#meanwhile Xue got into an argument with someone for opaque reasons and they've had to take it outside#and seward is out there trying to stop her from actually getting into a full on fight over it#gideon's straight up left already having stolen a bunch of alcohol and food because he was feeling disrespected#Jalen got lured off somewhere and is now attempting to extricate himself without insulting someone#and petra's merrily making out with someone behind the fountain out back and that definitely wont cause problems later#zayvia's fully just like ?? where the fuck did everyone go? hello?#or something like that. i know xue's definitely getting into a fight out front.#the downside of knowing the rules is that xue knows when someones insulting her. zayvia completely ignored it#someone makes a comment about them being uneducated and they go yeahhh didn't really get a lot of schooling in. yknow how it is
