Polus felt like home to some. For Blue, it was his home away from home. The snow, the relatively simple tasks, it was something that he had absolutely no problem with.

The less, well, intelligent people that had to accompany him on this mission, however, weren't as at home in this area. It was painfully obvious.

They seemed to use a buddy-system, or at the very least, were too connected to each other. Romance left and right, if you didn't see two people together in the snow, you saw them making out in the locker room. Of course, that wasn't actually true, but it was how Blue felt.

The wheels to turn for the Waterways, however, weren't easy, even for someone like Blue. One day, he was trying to turn one next to the Admin building. It only slightly budged. He sighed, trying before he saw a pink hand reach towards him.

"What are you doing?" Blue asked, looking away from the wheel to see a slightly smaller crewmate, with an egg on his head.

"Oh, I saw that you could use some egg-stra help!" A bright British-accented voice spoke. A smile could be heard in his tone alone.

Blue hadn't seen this guy before. He'd met with some of the others on a previous mission, but this one hadn't been there. Might as well give him a chance.

"Well, if you can get it to move, Pink. I've been trying for a while." Blue shrugged, backing up to give some room.

"My name is Mr. Egg." Mr. Egg nodded to Blue, stepping into position to turn the wheel. A noise of struggle came from him, but the wheel eventually began to move. "There ya go! Looks like you needed just a little bit more."

"Thanks, Pi--- Mr. Egg." Blue nodded,"I guess it didn't want to work for me."

"That's alright, we all have our bad tasks here, don't we? Can't be egg-celent at everything here." Mr. Egg asked, looking up at Blue.

"You have a point." Blue shrugged. "That was actually my last task for today, I'm heading in to get something warm to drink."

"Oh! I completed my tasks as well. Could I join you?" Mr. Egg looked to beside himself, looking at a small, mini-crewmate that was alongside him before patting the mini on the head.

"I guess, it's not like I could stop you." Blue shrugged.

Blue and Mr. Egg went into the main Admin building. The two of them got into a room where they could take their helmets off. Blue got a warm cup of hot chocolate and Mr. Egg got a warm cup of tea. The mini crewmate with Mr. Egg was given occasional sips of the tea.

"So, who's the kid?" Blue asked, pointing to the mini. "I've only seen one other crewmate here with one."

"Oh! This is Yolk." Mr. Egg replied, smiling. "I haven't always had 'im with me, I thought this trip would be an egg-celent chance for him to see space."

Yolk reached into the small pocket of his suit, a small knife now in his hand. Mr. Egg took it from him and set it in his own pocket. "No, Yolk, don't do that."

"Why does your child have a knife?" Blue asked, raising an eyebrow before sipping his drink.

"I'm not quite sure, to be honest." Mr. Egg replied, watching as Yolk struggled to get a sip of his tea. "He's got a talent of finding them, I don't own any."

"Keep an eye on that, then." Blue said. He checked the time on his watch before sipping more of his hot chocolate. "How'd you end up near this batch of..."

"Coincidence. I didn't want to be with this mission, but they were low on people. My feelings got a bit scrambled when I realized it." Mr. Egg sighed,"I'm... More acquainted with some of these than I'd like to be."

"I've gotten grouped with these people once before." Blue rolled his eyes. "It's a miracle this group sticks together when their captain is not the brightest person out there."

"You clearly haven't met Mr. Cheese." Mr. Egg nearly growled, a concerned noise coming from Yolk. Mr. Egg pat the small child's head and said comforting words to him.

"Oh, I have. Veteran gave me a whole spill about 'love this, love that, perfect relationships', even though I was trying to look through Security in peace." Blue sighed.

"You know he's new here, right?" Mr. Egg spoke,"He's the newest person in MIRA, no clue why he calls himself Veteran."

"I'm not surprised with how the rest of the people here are. He's watching the romance and stuff here going on like it's a drama. It's.... distracting, to say the least." Blue said.

Time seemed to pass quickly for the two as they got lost in conversation. Night approached and so did time for sleep.
