Quiet Rooms

May finds herself in one of the quiet cabins after breakfast with a book in her hand. She was settling into life on board the train easily enough. She was glad that Peter was there with her so she didn't have to worry about him at home by himself. Also, she was internally grateful to Mr Stark for keeping an eye on him when she couldn't. It was a debt she wouldn't repay anytime soon. Of course, everyone else she had met so far seemed quite nice. She was looking forward to properly meeting everyone else though.

Meal Area

After finishing up in the quiet room, she made her way to the kitchen where she put together a bowl of salad and grabbed a can of tuna to add to it, one of the few things she could successfully make. The meal in hand, she settled at one of the tables and flipped through the network to see what she had missed.

May loved food, she just couldn't cook so she enjoyed taking advantage of freshly cooked meals whenever she could. "I love any good meal so it's a good chance to eat well," she shrugs.

I agree it's interesting and everyone is nice. It makes things easier than if they weren't. I'm looking forward to getting to know everyone better though."

"There are plenty of people who cook here, so I'm sure meals won't be an issue at all." This was said in a soothing tone. Food wasn't hard to come by and really there were a lot of different people who made all different types of food.

Ignis reminded himself that this was Peter's aunt and he seemed to have gotten his inherent friendliness from her. It was hard not to like the boy really even if he got himself into trouble. "There doesn't seem to be anyone with ill intentions aboard." At least, not yet.

"No, it's just harder when it's my chore. I want to help out but after the last time I set off the smoke alarm it's probably for the best if I don't," she says with a laugh.

"I just hope it stays that way," she replies unknowingly echoing his thoughts.

She..set off a smoke alarm. Well Peter did say something about her not being able to cook. Ignis only smiled. "I'm sure you can have someone else on the team cover easily enough for you."

He nodded to May. "We've enough trouble during missions. Fighting amongst ourselves when no one willingly showed up in the first place would be ridiculous."

"Perhaps and I can always help out on another teams chores I suppose. I'm not completely useless around the place, just at cooking," she says with a self deprecating laugh.

"It would be. I'm just glad that everyone seems willing to help."

"You could do so. I've often figured we could do permanent chores or have those not suited to a particular one work on another." It might be worth bringing up at a council meeting. To him there was no sense in complaining about whatever chore he and his team were assigned, but others might not be suited to a task. Noct wouldn't be all that great at cooking after all.

There was another smile at May. "Indeed. So far we've been fortunate that there's been a relative sense of peace here."

"Both of those are good ideas," she agrees with a nod. "I'm happy to do anything else it's just the cooking," she shrugs.

"I hope it keeps up. I'm continually surprised there's so much to do around here though," she admits. "You'd think one would get bored after awhile but I'm yet to find it."

She got a smile of sorts. "Then I suppose it's not beyond the possibility of some note of exchange for the council."

"As I'm sure we all do." Really fighting among themselves was the last thing that they needed. He acknowledged her words with a nod. "Indeed. It appears there's always something brewing in a place that should be quieter."

He's speaking of Tony of course.
