Burning Skies Saloon
Yiski:
--NARRATOR--
Liu and Yiski look at each other, mulling over BdrLine's compromise. They both nod and shake on it. Everyone, including the patrons, are relieved. Having a wedding on a gigantic luxury ship would at least be interesting.
Zill and Jun'ko spent the rest of the evening on his Galleon. After literally scaring the landlord shitless, the two celebrated the only way they could: Alcohol and sex.
BdrLine and his mother head back to his place. While leaving, Liu did notice Paradox, but after the yesterday's incident, she didn't bother acknowledging his existence.
Roland and Ny-Lee set up for the night again in the saloon's spare room. After Yiski had closed and fallen asleep, the two decided to continue with their own 'activities.'
--NARRATOR END--
--END OF DAY 68--
Yiski:
--START OF DAY 69--
--NARRATOR--
Morning comes and Yiski is up along with it. He gets ready as he always has: checking the equipment, checking the stills, checking the taps, and making sure the main floor is clean.
By the time Yiski is done, he sees Roland and Ny-Lee come downstairs. Yiski notices Ny-Lee's hair is a mess and the two are wearing a large grin. Yiski laughs.
"Not even trying to hide the fact you two are having sex around me?"
*Ny-Lee blushes and Roland gives her a kiss on the cheek. Roland turns to Yiski.*
"Well, you made it clear you, Zill, and Jun'ko know what we do."
*Ny-Lee nods in agreement and chimes in.*
"It's not like we're telling you what we do. Unless you want to know."
*Yiski laughs again.*
"No, no, I think I can live without knowing any of that."
*All three laughed to start the day.*
--NARRATOR END--
Honeybadger:
*Honeybadger decides wether to get up today, then turns over and goes back to sleep*
Honeybadger: "Mmph..."
Captain Lockheart:
-- At the Docks --
*after wazulu going off on a "business trip", lockheart takes to the final preparations on his ship before setting off on his merchant run*
"right well everything seems to be accounted for... hmmm, 1,2,3,4..."
*continues counting the various crates that lie in the cargo hold of his ship*
"yep everythings here"
*a crewman approaches*
Crewman: "sir we are ready to be airborne!"
Lockheart: "get warming the engines up and grease the guns, ill plot our course"
*walks towards the Burning Skies Saloon*
--The saloon--
*walks through the door slowly and takes a seat at the bar*
"Yiski my man, can i have a mug of the strongest stuff you got, ill need it to wake me up while i plot my course to the fjords"
*places a map on the bar and starts to examine it*
RearAdmiralZill:
-Then it was fixed again-
Zill woke with a start as his personal radio frequency was buzzing. He ran over to answer it.
"Admiral here."
"Greetings Admiral. This is Matty"
"Good to hear you old friend. How's the Black Squid Squad treating you?"
"Stressed as always. Got a new lot of gunners with perfect numbers. Lets hope it equates to skill out here."
"Indeed. What's your location?"
"Just made it to Kian with no spots. We are going to start our patrol between here and Accura in a couple hours."
"Very well. To Clear Skies."
"Amen to that. Matty out."
He set the receiver down and Jun was sitting up in bed watching him.
"Care to explain all the fuss?"
Zill let out a short sigh.
"The Republic is sending a Fleet to raid Firnfeld. I don't think you were here when we were caught off guard as they swept south to take a crack at our lands. It was a poor assumption that never made it to my ears until we had to fend off the raid. We won, but it was a mess. This time, we will be prepared to show force and hopefully keep them contained in Firnfeld."
"Well its good to know you're leading the defense. I feel safer already." *grinning*
*Zill smirks* "Well it'll make merchants grumpy and citizens on edge seeing the defense efforts. Probably good business for Yiski."
"Will you have to go North if they come too close?"
"...Yes."
"I take it I'm not invited to that party."
"I wouldn't dare put you in that position."
"Then promise me one thing?"
"What's that?"
"Come back if you do."
Zill only nodded, and got on his field uniform and gas-mask. He also packed his personal radio in case news came. It would be attached to him like a third arm until this mess was over. Jun'ko got herself ready as well. She lifted his mask for a long kiss before they headed over to the Saloon.
