I'm busy entering codes for hardpoint deployment when Jek enters, but I wrap it up quickly, and look up to him. "Mr. Bezier, good work on the explosives... I don't suppose you're also good with ship-to-ship combat?"
-
I let out a long huff as I consider the Dutchess' advice, my eyes closed and brow furrowed in deep concentration. We aren't a military vessel – though we are, of course, armed – and even though I question the validity of this Commander Taru's claims…
-
I keep talking in a soft, soothing tone. No aggression. No cause for alarm. "That's it... Good dogs..." Disarming Presence (Rolled: 2d6+2. Rolls: 4, 1. Total: 7)

I stick a few more rags next to Fauna – but she won't need them if Stopsign doesn't stop thrashing around like that. Just as I feel a few wrappers deep in the bottom of my pack, I spot the dogs around the corner, and freeze. I've had a few encounter…
-
Once Stopsign, Fauna, and I are safely back behind cover, I'm reaching into my bag and pulling out old rags to try and stop that bleeding from draining him here and now. Small comforts, right? "Y'know Stop, there are easier ways to get scars if you'…
-
Stopsign's blood spatters across my face, and a wave of nausea washes over me. I drop down next to him, checking the wound in his neck... The bullet just grazed him, but it looks like it clipped the artery. It's gushing a lot of blood... Gun shots a…
-
Fuck... Spoke too soon. I pull up a status report of the ship, paying particular attention to the status of my shuttle. I look to Rajani, "If the shuttles are no longer compromised, then we should have the VIPs evacuated..." I pull open a comm to J…
-
I wave a hand to put everyone back at ease as I make my way to the command table. "Good," I answer, when she's filled me in, "Her Grace is here to tie off that last string for us. Maintain present course and speed for Agliesse-2b, and open a comm to…

Crudbuckets... This is getting out of hand. I'm not very strong; but Isis and I lug a lot of stuff around, and I've seen what an open wound does to people on the open road... I run over to Stopsign and Fauna, "Let's go, guys! What can I do to help?"
-
I watch Isis turn around and run back into the chaos, but she's already out of reach by the time I call out, "hey wait! Isis!"... This is getting bad, and I'm guessing that gunshot just made things worse... I make a bee-line back for the caravan, mo…
-
Well, Rei, if it was possible for me to blush any harder, you've somehow achieved that. I soften as she rests her hand on my chest — the warmth of her touch slipping past the defenses of the thermal layers under my uniform. My eyes wander to her han…
-
I'm making my way back up the hill towards the caravan, when I notice Deg isn't coming towards us... She's running back out towards... Is that a group of scavs? I put a hand on Isis' shoulder to stop her, "What's Deg doing?"
-
My parents? My mother died when I was pretty young, and my Dad... Well... He was a wolf. Look... I know what you're saying. The world is a dangerous place – and it is – but you can't go around blaming yourself for every time someone dies around you…
-
You mean, how often do we stumble on something that attracts the unwanted attention of a bunch of scavengers with actual fucking guns, and bullets to shoot from them? ... Rarely. More often than not, we'll stumble on some rotting corpses, or piss of…
-
I'm already down on the ground, cowering back towards a cart, and scanning for danger when Isis starts telling me what to do. I've learned to trust her in times of danger. "What do we do?"
-
My face glows bright red as my mind works away at the proposal. Like I said, I spent a lot of alone time out in space before I took this job – and this job is often times more prudish than being all on your own out there. People in the outer reaches…
-
My concern eases, and I let a smile creep back onto my face as she takes off the pendant, and pockets it. I shake my head, "nothing good. Maybe Bees... Want some honey? Help me take a peek around?"
-
Isis' voice snaps me out of my little vision, and I have to look around a second to catch my bearings... Bees? I look around, just to make sure I'm not going crazy, before I make my way over to Isis, who seems to have stopped talking, mid sentence. …
-
That stops me dead in my tracks. The words surprise me more than anything — It's been a long time since anyone's made me an offer of that sort, let alone someone of any stature. I'm dubious. "That ... Uh, won't be necessary, your grace. I'm simply d…

Deg, highlight Hard.
-
Deg, why don't you highlight Wisher? (avatar included for a quick link to my character sheet)

Opening brain. (Rolled: 2d6+1. Rolls: 6, 3. Total: 10)
-
My brain is always at least half open... You know how when you're trying to do something, and someone keeps talking in your ear, and if you try and listen, you can't quite focus well enough to do the job, but if you put your mind to it, you can kind…
-
I look to her out of the corner of my eye, and dismiss the thought with a subtle shake of my head. "Your retinue was just doing it's job with the information they had on hand, and Her Highness' bruised ego will heal quickly, I'm sure — the gesture i…
-
"Aye, aye, miss serious," I smile, pat my chest in a mock salute, and wink just for her, as I guide her down the hill. Stopsign and the other caravan owners may be in this for jingle, but I'm in this for history... I'm looking for the carts that loo…
-
I'm grinning from ear to ear, "It'll be awesome, you'll see! C'mon!" I reach for her hand, hoping to start pulling her down to the graveyard. It's not like we're strictly with the caravan. If they don't want to come, they don't have to come... "Reme…
-
I'm all but salivating at those carts down there... Story has it millions of folks packed up these things with treasure around the time the Wolves started hunting, and left them as an offering to the Wolves to spare their lives... Shame the Wolves d…
-
I try not to read too much into that wink, in spite of myself. Instead, I chuckle softly, and nod. "Then I'll take my leave." I bow to Bai, and motion for Rei to accompany me back to the bridge.
-
I bow, and turn back to Xuan. As unfortunate as all this was, she did manage to stop Rei in her tracks... The corner of my lip lifts, just for her, and I bow respectfully. "If you'll excuse me, your Highness, I believe I'm needed elsewhere..." I pau…

Ain't this just a beautiful morning? I love waking up early, and watching the sun rise once all the trees have their leaves... It's always a nice little promise that things are going to get better after a long winter. I'm chatting with Stopsign, the…
