[With the chaos of the fire over and the smoke cleared (literally and figuratively, really), Jin's settled into hanging around the Audentes campsite. He's helping teammates set up and maintain their camps, aiding townspeople in rebuilding, eavesdropping on all of your gossip, brainstorming wildly on how to deal with the Yeerks Taraxa, the like.

He's got a way more important thing to share with the 'net today, though.]

Um.

[Jin's sitting somewhere in the camp in front of someone's tent, looking a little sheepish-- and holding a mess of dark, unruly hair out of his face.

Help.]

Can I borrow a hair tie? None of the ones the Qorral sell are strong enough. [pause.] I've still got a lot of the ALASTAIR stipend, I'll pay you back with something from the trading post-- I just need something.

It'll cause permanent damage . . .

[come on!!! WHAT KIND OF ADVISOR ARE YOU]

[fivenareff]

We're roughing it.

[digiorno]

We're roughing it but you have a tub of hair gel.

[Don't act like a cowboy.]

[fivenareff]

We had bread and cheese for supper last night: we're roughing it. Just because I happen to have a few amenities doesn't change that fact.

[digiorno]

Hair ties are more roughing it than hair gel.

[pummelling]

I'm going with Blondie. Hair gel is definitely not roughing it.

[digiorno]

That is not my name. But also: see?

[fivenareff]

So don't use a rubber band. You'll change your tune in three days.

[THEY'RE STILL ROUGHING IT but part of being a good advisor is knowing when to pick your battles.]

[pummelling]

It doesn't matter. Everyone else offered to loan me some.

At least somebody agrees with me on this one.

[fivenareff]

[A tired little exhale. Stop being difficult.]

And what other offers have you gotten?

[pummelling]

At least three members of Audentes. Including your friend.
