Captain Lockheart:
*gulps some more ale and wipes his mouth with his sleeve*

ahh

*turns to face Wazulu*

"wazulu, never mind the round, why didnt you signal for me i was doing a merchant run around there, Jesus, how many did you lose..."

"more and more go every day, its.... its truly dire..."

*fumbles again in his pockets.*

"AH HA Gotcha, never mind, found some"

*stuffs the pipe with a few pieces of tobacco and puts it to his mouth, looks around again*

"anyone mind if i smoke it here or would you prefer me to sit further back, and wazulu, when did i ever say i was a gentleman" * throws his thumb over his shoulder in the direction of the further back tables*

Wazulu :
*To Lockheart*

We lost 2 men on my crew, 3 overall- An ammo pack exploded in combat, shredding our gunner. After that the cold ice caused an engine burnout, all but killing an engineer. One poor soul on our partner ship got hit dead center by a Mercury shell- not enough left to bury him.

Anyway, to happy times and clearer skies *raises jug*

BdrLineAzn:
--City Center--

*As the two goes out for their walk, Ny-Lee is by Roland's side with her head under the nook of his neck and an arm around his waist. Roland wraps an arm around Ny-Lee as well pulling her close to him*

*Ny-Lee to Roland*
"So, dear what do you have planned for today. And don't give me the look. It's not that many times where you ask Yiski to go out *she says playfully*"

--Docks--
*After the flooding had died down, BdrLine is outside his house looking at his equipment at the docks*
*His mother come down and sees her son*
"What a storm we had yesterday, are they this bad when they hit?"

*BdrLine, hearing his mother, turns to her*
"Well they only happen when the Firnfeld air moves down south. It takes a day or so for it to pass. But besides that, it clear weather all around."

*Accepting of the answer, Liu starts heading out of the docks*
"Alright then. Well I'll be heading over to Yiski's Saloon then if you need me."

"Hmm? What for?"

"To talk about some wedding arrangements, since I'm here we can at least plan ahead for it."

"Ok then mother, I'll be there once I finish checking all my things"

*As BdrLine goes over to his usual group of workers to help him sort out the damage, Liu starts to walk to the Saloon*
*After a few moments, she arrives and sees Yiski and goes up to him*

"Hello there Yiski, you think you have time to talk about some things?"

RearAdmiralZill:
Zill downs his drink and lets out a sigh.
"Well better head to the Council now rather than later. We need more trade, not flakin' taxes."

Liu walks in as Zill gets up. He nods to her and heads out the door. Jun'ko seems rather jittery as she thanks Yiski.
"Oh you. Its amazing you don't have a girl yet Yiski."

She gets up and starts pacing.
"I need to do something. I cant stop moving for the life of me. Wonder why...."

Yiski:
*Yiski waves off Zill and Jun'ko. Yiski is slightly worried at a jittery Jun'ko.*

"Maybe there were some side effects after all. Oh well, Zill can deal with it."

*Yiski then greets Liu.*

"Hello again. So what is it you need to ask? Wait. I'm going to guess it's about our young lovin' couple."

--City Center--

*Roland looks to Ny-Lee with a relatively weak smile.*

"I just needed some air is all. I think everything I have done in the last two weeks in finally catching up to me."

*Roland takes a seat near a fountain edge and looks off into the sky.*

"Within two weeks... two weeks I have almost died four times, seen horrors beyond fantasy, and taken lives."

*Roland takes a few deep breaths. Ny-Lee doesn't interrupt and lets him continue.*

"It is not that I am having regrets about the lives I took. I have come to understand it was necessary to protect those I care about. It is just that now I finally have time to reflect on it without having volleys of bullets coming toward me."

*Roland finishes his monologue and continues to look at the sky.*
