OOC: Deepest apologies. Apparently I never checked back on this! Honestly, I think I got the job 'cause I was just here longer'n the rest at the time -- at least, longer'n the rest and not crazy. Cecy always liked me, but she didn't leave nothi…
-
I keep tellin' myself we just have to hang in there, just have to see how things turn out this trip. I've let Orset and Colizabel both know I'm available if they need to talk, but I'm tryin' real hard not to smother 'em with attention. Neither of …
-
I s'pose it's my mother in me wantin' to make sure Orset eats. That's her answer for everything that might be ailin' a person: a rich homecooked meal. I gotta beat back the instinct to run after her and insist she get herself something to eat. Th…

I'm cheerin' for Falius, I really am. I like to see the wing happy -- s'not good for nobody to be out here alone. Some of the crew've got a girl or a guy in every port, and that's okay too. I s'pose it's about havin' someone you look forward to s…

If nothing else, the wing's always good for a chuckle. I wave off Thomer's apology, again, as I pick over my own meal. S'not his job: it's Orset's, and we're gonna have a conversation 'bout that later anyway. Thing I like about Thomer is I don't …
-
Of course he does. I'm not at all surprised. Still, I give him a grin and a pat on the arm before heading out to find Thomer. It's gettin' on mess hour -- I didn't know how hungry I was 'til three bells sounded. How long have I spent chasin' fol…

"I been thinkin' on that some." I hadn't been, not really. Too busy thinkin' on Colizabel and Orset and wondering what other trouble's comin' my way. "Vail's agreed to put in at port for a few days, and I'm hopin' that'll keep folks from bein' to…
-
"If the map goes where Vail thinks it goes, we might have a problem." That was the short and long of it, wasn't it? "We gotta keep quiet 'til he confirms it and we're underway -- can't have anyone gettin' there before us. I get that." It sounds …
-
"I wondered that m'self, but Vail's serious 'bout this." It did sound outlandish -- but I already knew that, didn't I? "That Carghesh fellow's left a sum o' money somewheres, and none o' his know where to find it. That's what this map is for. Su…
-
I give it a good few paces, let us get away from the crew before launching into my explanation. Well, I guess it ain't my explanation -- it's Vail's, and I hope I'm doin' it justice. "Vail's got something, somethin' he wants to keep from the crew …
-
"You know how it is. Trouble kinda follows me around some. I think you'd be more surprised if'n I said there wasn't none." I offer him a smirk, in no small way influenced by how silly Rho looks sittin' at the table there. He's a big guy, and tha…
-
"Alright, then. I'll see you for mess, right?" With that sorted -- more sorted than it was when I walked in here, anyway -- I rise to my feet and tuck the dropper away. Gonna have to get rid of that somewhere along the way -- don't want it givin'…
-
I give her a nod and a smile as she hands over them things, please a touch that I got through to her. It don't solve nothin' -- just hides the problem away for right now -- but it's something. "I'll talk to the officers, see if we can't find a pla…
-
That there is a sobering thought. Most people at least got family somewhere...though I'm not sure if family'd really be much help with this kind o' thing. If that money is really there and if we get it, she can go somewhere, live out the rest of h…
-
"Drops ain't gonna help," I tell her firmly. There's a lotta things I wanna tell her, but I guess I gotta look at this realistically. I don't know much 'bout Phineas Mnemophrenia, to be honest. I've got the good fortune not to know a lot of peopl…
-
I want to pull her into a hug and tell her it will be okay, like you would do if she really was just a kid. But if I did that, it would be more for me than for her, I think, so instead I just try to keep it together, try to look unshakable and like…
-
Fine, if she wanted to act the petulant child, then I'd treat her like one. Before she can raise her hand, I grab hold o' her wrist. "I think you've had enough, Orset." "It don't matter if she's mad. You don't do that, not to your teammates." I…
-
I sigh softly, glad, at least, she wasn't stupid enough to be on those things while we're out there. Small favors, I suppose. It don't make me feel much better. "You could've told me." Seems kind of an obvious thing people keep forgettin'. I'm …
-
I answer her with a bit of a nod. Oh, Orset, how can you keep turnin' to those things? They say they don't do nothin' to you, not like some of the other stuff out there, but the dangers of flyin' and fightin' under the influence aside, have you ev…
-
I give an uneasy look 'round the room, tryin' to shake off that feelin' that's settled between my shoulder-blades, but soon as I see Orset there on the floor, that feelin's settled in my gut instead. T'ain't an improvement. I don't say a word as I…
-
"'S'not an accusation, Falius. I know you know better than to mess with that stuff." I give him a smile, try to instill some confidence in him. It really hadn't been. I think better o' my wing than that. I'm feeling tired all of a sudden, thoug…
-
Sad. Dunno why that gives me pause, but it does. Maybe 'cause I don't think Orset and sad belong in the same place. She's a complicated woman -- obviously not right in the head, sure, but complicated -- and "sad" just don't seem to suit her. It'…
-
I'm relieved to hear his concoction's not gonna blow us outta the sky. At least, it's not s'posed to. Still, I keep some space between me and the mix, just in case. "S'not a bad idea. I'll look forward to tryin' anything if it means less trouble…
-
"Had better days, Falius." I watch the bubbling concoction uneasily. You think I would've learned by now not to ask questions 'bout what he's up to, but I s'pose I never did. S'always a part of me wonderin' if he's gonna blow up the whole boat. …
-
That girl... If I wasn't so worried about her for disappearin' like this, I'd be downright perturbed. I give Jewel a quick check-over, just makin' sure Orset's not left her without proper care again, and then it's off to find Falius. This day's j…

Yowzers! Alright, what should I be worrying about?

That's one down, one to go. I hope Orset stuck to the roost, or I'll have to go track her down -- which ain't as easy a thing to do as one might think. I think she knows more about this ship than most everyone else. I can't help but spare a glanc…
-
"T'ain't gonna happen." I'm confident it won't, one way or t'other. But this means we got a bigger issue now, one of trust. That's hard enough to build up without these kinds of things getting in the way. If we're flyin' into somewheres, we need…
-
My lips purse into a frown. Nah, I hadn't seen that -- but I should've. And that's my failing for not watching my own wing. "I'll talk to her. And talk to Thomer, see what we can do 'bout putting you on t'other end apart from her." But that was…
