If you want there to be some specific reason/occasion for Villagers' Trust I, let me know. Also, I mentioned this to Rocket (Wash has the second tier of this perk), but we can add their Villagers' Trust perks as modifiers to Natasha's cover roll! I'm trying to let perks and such have more of an influence on rolls where applicable.
For Poetry II, they'll start teaching Natasha how to actually compose her own poetry in Cetagandan forms, combining this with her Calligraphy training -- handwritten only, of course. She'll also be educated in the standard curricula of poetry taught in ghem education, and the ways in which they are expected to be recited -- not always verbatim, as it happens, as the Cetagandans make an art of gently editing existing poetry with references to other poems to create an even subtler message or statement. Natasha will be able to see in retrospect that this was much of what was happening at the moon-poetry party.
You can consider Cetagandan flower arranging to be very similar to ikebana -- with a slightly less emphasis on minimalism, and more on complex statements. It's further complicated by the fact that there are some commonly-used plants that are entirely genetically engineered.
For Training: Advanced Technology, they'll teach her the basics about ship engineering -- how they're fueled and handled/controlled, the difference between jump ships (those fitted with jump drives to traverse wormholes) and non-jump ships, and building on her existing knowledge of anti-grav tech to explain the rest. If there are any further details you'd like (or to hash out specifics of NPC interactions), let me know!
Natasha now has the perks Training: Arts II (Poetry), Training: Arts I (Flower Arranging), Villagers' Trust I, and Training: Advanced Technology.
