Gossip/CR Hooks Meme

Are there people your characters are talking about all the time? Gossip they're always sharing? Someone they just fucking hate in a way they don't or can't hide? Welcome to the gossip meme y'all, where you might find some CR hooks. Format shamelessly stolen from the Handwaved CR memes.

1. Post a comment with your character's name & cabin number in the header, and give us an idea of who they talk about and in what contexts. Be as vague or specific as you like!

2. If you're up for it talk about why they think these things of other characters so people might have an idea of what they heard about them/the implications they can glean about that relationship.

3. Profit! (And maybe you can grab some threads; does your character hate being talked about? Enemies escalate their shit because Keep My Name The Fuck Out Of Your Mouth? Just think a particular bit of gossip might be more fun to do IC?)

Jeff will talk about others in reference to interactions they've had, like, when relevant ("oh yeah, I was hanging with Klaus the other day and--!") but he keeps personal details and secrets close to his chest.

One noticeable thing about the way Jeff talks about others is (SO FAR) he's always got something positive/complimentary to say, not in a way that seems like he's TRYING to be nice, but in a way that suggests he has a genuinely positive impression of others...

...in a way that doesn't always totally gel with reality. Like, he'll talk about Maximilien as if the dude's 1) his friend and 2) definitely cares about people's well-being (he just has a prickly sense of humor!).

He will say that Klaus has his shit together and is very healthy, and Sharky is the wisest, smartest man on the ship, Nobunaga is just really passionate about social justice, Pratt is Definitely Very Sane and practical, Peter Smith is very cool for an old guy, etc etc. He has yet to form a negative impression of anyone here, somehow.

(But I welcome people trying to get on Jeff's nonexistent Negative Gossip List)

Also the way Jeff talks about Bash makes it abundantly obvious that he's totally in love. Expect him to get gooey and sappy whenever Bash's name comes up.
