Vee had drawn kitchen duty, which of course was perfectly fine with her. It was the one place that she actually felt 'at home' at the weyr, where she actually felt useful considering she had yet to Impress, and knowing her lucky wouldn't. As much as that bit of self doubt tended to bother the young woman, she tried to keep it locked away and not let it bother her. Thinking about one sad thing tended to lead to others and then she would become depressed and most likely would find her seeking comfort from K'ton, and that just wouldn't be helpful to anyone. Except maybe him.
Shoving her thoughts away she made her way into the kitchens, tied her hair back so that it was out of the way and found out what she would need to do for the night. She was given greens and tubers, oh yay, to clean, peel if needed, and cook of course. The task wasn't the worst one she could have received, she loathed scrubbing kettles, so she took the task with a smile and went to get started, however there was already someone in the space she needed. This in itself didn't bother her at all, she had come to the kitchens early so it wasn't imperative that she start right away anyway. What she did do was walk over and be slightly nosey. The girl, who was obviously quite a bit younger then her looked to be working on dough. Looked about the area she pulled together the idea that she was making pie.
Vee moved away, not wanting to bother her, and went back to the pile of tubers and found a large bowl and a large kettle. She found a peeler, and eyes on the young girl started the entirely too boring task of peeling the tubers. She stopped after a few however, seeing the girl run around the kitchen hurriedly. She looked at her own task and sighed, setting the tuber and peeler beside and moved back over to the girl. "Hi...do you need help?", she asked a bit quietly, not wanting to startle her. If she was like herself, she might get engrossed in her work and forget about the world.
