[April knows already there's no money on this ship, but there's more than one way to reward your workers:]
Yeah, like, medical benefits, free food, mandatory breaks, company gym membership, permission to take shots at problem customers, y'know, that kind of thing.

[Johnny picks up the paper to unfold and read. Well, this is more of a reaction than expected...]
Mess.
[An awkward pause.]
Shiki don't go down easily, or cleanly.
[Another pause.]
Sorry.

[it is a blank save the date notice, with blank lines to enter the date and names.]
We're still working on the date. Weddings take some time to plan. No sooner than the end of November, or perhaps December, though.
[He fills in his and Watson's and Cesar's names, though, and sets the paper against the bottom of the door.]
We're thinking of John's for a venue.

[no response.
come back with a date mf he'll be there with bells on and everyone will regret everything.]

Which one do you have?
[April is guessing something to do with ship access, right? It's the easiest, makes sense and all.]

But you do have likes and dislikes.
What is something that you like, Ms. Friday? What would make you smile, if you could?

[ Pratt is back! Alone this time. Friday wasn't at her desk so he's going straight to the source.
When he doesn't get an answer he leaves a note near the door cuz there's not enough room to shove it underneath.]
Fio doesn't know what Pokémon is. I wanna show her the cartoon. You got any copies in there somewhere?
-Deputy Pratt

For everything else, of course! The greeks were able to advance so because of the abundance of time that they had, as orators and philosophers were born from socialization and dialogue, and the sciences spurred by the curiosity of those who studied the stars and earth...
[ He laughs softly, a touch embarrassed to have given such a direct answer. Hiyori has always worked and worked, but his work was his passion. ]
Miss Friday, is there truly nothing you wish for than to watch the world as it passes by you?
[ It's equally direct, but it's spoken in warm tones. Hiyori is a sunny day in autumn, one filled with coloring leaves and a slight breeze, yet still shined upon by the warm sun. He can be as icy as winter and as warm as summer, but he finds his middle in recognizing the potential of others and endeavoring to bring it out. Friday cannot be frail to have withstood so much, yet she's taken on such a passive role.
But then, Hiyori had never done anything more than accepted his role in life either. He simply chooses not to notice that, and perhaps that's what allows him to see it in others. ]

Aww...
[ He's not that disappointed, but he hadn't quite expected to receive that answer either... Well, the part where he won't do it because somebody said to anyway.
But he doesn't mind being around the Captain all that much, really; Hiyori can be cruel and kind, energetic and bouncy or quiet and thoughtful, and he never really settles on one. But the majority here can only handle the latter and not the former, so as annoying as it is to have someone who knows his ins and outs, he doesn't mind having a person who can tolerate a little bit. ]
Well, I suppose everyone is wrong sometimes! I'll have to let them know that all they've done is ensure you won't. [ They'll probably make a funny face so please appreciate that at least!!! ] ... But I suppose you don't seem like the type to enjoy murder for it's own sake.
[ However flimsy the reason, there must be one... No, he wouldn't be going about all this if he didn't have even a speck of his heart left. Hiyori doesn't either, really, though his heart died before it could even start to beat. Still, he's quick to add - ]
Ah... I hope you'll forgive me if I'm wrong, but you've really created quite the place...

[a shadow snaps out and pulls the note through the nonexistent gap under the door.
about three minutes later, the same shadow pushes a VHS tape through the gap under the door that does not exist.]

[He does jump back when a shadow appendage of some sort darts through the bottom of the door because uh.. wasn't expecting that. And then he stands there awkwardly looking around as if hoping someone else is nearby so he can ask if they saw this shit.
Of course there's no one. He's not sure if he should leave and come back or... Oh. Nice.]
Sweet! Thanks, man.
[He's absolutely okay with strange shadows now, grinning and scooping up that movie. Excellent.]

It's probably for the best that Friday's not at her desk when Dimitri approaches it. He slides an envelope labelled "MS FRIDAY" under a paperweight, then bolts.
There's a card inside. It's from Sundries. His handwriting is dogshit and poorly-spaced, and there's multiple splatters where he obviously pressed too hard and snapped the pen. But it's still better than his attempts to text!
Ms Friday,
I've been told you don't choose the items we receive, but I wish to thank you nonetheless. Twice now I've been given a very important item just as I've come to need it -- first my godfather's sword, and just recently, a blanket that was formerly mine. It's been a great comfort in light of recent revelations.
Thank you for delivering them. I am in your debt. Is there anything I can do to repay you?
-- Sincerely and with deepest gratitude,
Dimitri Alexandreer

[a few days after that, a note appears pushed under the door of Dimitri's room, done in Friday's painstakingly neat hand.]
Don't worry! I don't need much of anything! I just hope everyone has a great time this month and has fun on Halloween!

Everything else...
[she pauses, visibly thinking.]
Well... It would be interesting to go to space, one day! The kind they have outside of planets in some realities... It's always looked like a lot of fun, and I don't need to breathe, so I should be fine!

It's much more interesting to have them kill each other. If I kill someone, there's the pain of their death, but that's ultimately the end of it. Rage towards me isn't anything particularly novel, and always seems to level out to its base relatively quickly. When a passenger kills a passenger... It's a much wider variety of reactions. And, depending on the circumstances, those can last a very long time - even forever.
[a slight smile] You understand, of course.

[let us pretend the keywords for this icon are 'intense eyes', because while not angry there's sure still some energy here as April leans hard on the desk.]
Is the Captain hiring?

[ There’s a whole jellyfish waiting at the desk for Friday. If she’s not there, he’ll just casually start playing Animal Crossing until she comes back to the desk. ]
[Smooth, April, be smooth. April straightens back up so they're back on the right side of the customer/employee territorial line across the desk, and they clear their throat.]
I mean, that's - that's good, great for a help desk position to have, the option there...
[...]
... Is... is the Captain hiring?

[ A few hours later and he totally forgot that he was even here. His soul belongs to Tom Nook now— ]
Oh. Hi, Miss Friday. Are you… busy? I was hoping to ask a couple questions, but they can wait if you are.
