01: sustenance
With refugees in the Vault, the Milk Run as a business is less important than making sure the new ones, the strangers, are properly fed. Senshi and anyone capable who cares to help him have set themselves to this task, making sure there’s enough nice hot soup and bread for any starving miner or factory worker, now cut off from their old life, to at least not have to worry about their next meal.

Whenever possible Senshi takes a moment to make sure the new uns are settled in and have a warm bed, and does his best to make them feel welcome, but he knows with a crowd this size that’s not always possible. So many mouths, so little time. Still, he makes the new arrivals feel human whenever he can.

02: luxury
Senshi is going around with a survey, asking new and old what luxury foods and ingredients they most miss from the Empire and carefully noting down the answers in a notebook.

If asked why, he says, “Simple: next time I’m out shopping with the Milk Run, I’ll try to find some.”

He’s dead serious.

What flavors and treats do you miss most?

She passes it on, and keeps the rolls coming. "Oh, that? That was before I became an armor-jock. Even leaving aside that Dad used to take me on wilderness training, actresses and servants hardly get their own cooks, you know?

"So I learned to make do. Came in handy even as an armor-jock, come to think..."

She laughs for a second. "Maybe my family was, what with a family fighting style and a lot of weird worship traditions. But, well, the Empire likes their own aristos, so if we were, it's out of the living memory of even my grand-dad. We were doin' our damnedest just to keep it alive."

"Right--" she serves up some more. "In good health to you--"
