Coldcurse:
(i assume the saloon is closed and everyone went flying, if not then you can remove this post)

--salloon--
Being away for a long time Captain Coldcurse returns to the salloon.
he stands infront of the entrance of the salloon as he grabs the doorknob.
he finds out it has been closed but doesnt leave.
Captain Coldcurse moves a bit back and kicks against the door with his iron leg.
the door swings open as Captain Coldcurse walks inside the salloon.
he looks around and sees nobody.

Captain Coldcurse: "where in the wailing name is everyone?"

Captain Coldcurse sees something shiny leaning against the bar, he walks towards the object and picks it up.
its an old wooden guitar with metal strings, Captain Coldcurse blows the dust of the guitar and grabs an old bottle of moonshine.
he takes a seat and starts to tune the guitar, after he tuned the strings he starts to play a bit.
Captain Coldcurse stops playing the guitar and looks around again.

Captain Coldcurse: "i guess there is enough room to sleep here now, i think dont dont mind me taking care of this place"

Captain Coldcurse takes another sip of the moonshine and starts to play the guitar again.

Captain Lockheart:
--Anvala--

Lockheart and Cecelia took the Commodore Beckett back to Anvala. Ludvig the first mate had to fly it most of the journey as Lockheart and Cecelia were completely inebriated, but lockheart had to take the helm after Ludvig left to head back to Firnfeld where he was stationed. Back at Anvala Lockheart left the ship with Cecelia on his arm, as he made some last checks on the ship and its next cargo to deliver. Before getting back on board to get changed into some more "Town Friendly clothes". He left the ship wearing the attire of the nobles along with a customary top hat. he began to stroll towards the burning skies saloon, before Cecelia swung him round to face him.

"A tavern??, i was expecting something a bit more high class.."

Lockheart winced a little at the thought of not getting to see some friendly faces, which had left anvala anyway.

Lockheart: " Well... where did you have in mind?, i mean im not too sure myself what there is to do here. So i guess we can make a day of it.."

*Lockheart and Cecelia spent the rest of the day strolling around Anvala taking in what the city, that seemed to fascinate Cecelia so much. They eventually Stopped and had a meal at a restaurant before heading back to the Commodore Beckett for the night.*

Coldcurse:
Captain Coldcurse smiles and puts the guitar on the floor as he grabs a flare gun and a flint lock pistol out of his longcoat.
he walks outside and looks at the sky, there are no clouds to be seen.

captain coldcurse: "i guess im gonna need someone to keep this salloon up. I hope your still around lockheart, dont dissapoint me."

Captain Coldcurse aims high with his flare gun and shoots, a light blue light shines in the sky.
captain coldcurse then aims with his flint lock pistol at the flare and shoots again, the flare is hit by the bullet and creates a loud explosion  that can be heard by everyone in anvala.
as the remainings of the flare fall down on the ground captain coldcurse throws the flare gun away and walks back inside.
as he sits down he picks up the guitar again and starts playing a bit more music, not much later he decides to search a room with a bed and call it a day.
yet before he sleeps he smiles and softly says.

Captain Coldcurse: "I dont think you know, but I need you more then ever..."

captain coldcurse closes his eyes and sleeps.

Yiski:
--2 Hours from Yunin--

Over the grumbling of the engineers, the two ships were making great time. At their current rate, the ships should reach Yannock in the late-afternoon. While it the group would be arriving a few hours later than intended, it was still better than showing up either late Thursday evening, or worse, the morning of the wedding.

Yiski spent the few hours after leaving Nalm below deck, when he did come up, he saw the soon-to-be newlyweds embracing each other on the starboard. Yiski approaches the two.

"So where do you two plannin' to go on your honeymoon?"

Roland and Ny-Lee turned around to face Yiski. Ny-Lee was thinking, but Roland responded.

"We plan on travelling to Cathedral and stay there for two weeks."

"Oh... why Cathedral?"

"Well, Cathedral is much larger than Anvala, it also houses a variety of cultures from each faction. I also believe there is a festival being hosted during our stay."

While Roland was explaining, Ny-Lee's face lit up with more excitement and squeezed Roland harder. Roland laughed, but it was stifled by her near-death hug.

"Darling, I... know you are... excited, but.... ... ... breathing... is nice..."

Ny-Lee immediately loosened her grip, but keep her hug. She was blushing again and buried her head into Roland's chest.

"Mhmmf..."

Yiski chuckled and Roland gave a sigh.

"Honey, I did not catch that."

Ny-Lee tilted her head up looking at Roland.

"I'm sorry."

Roland gave her a kiss on the lips. The two stared into each other, lost in their own world. This was Yiski's cue to leave them and head to the helm to check on Zill.

"Crimson to Admiral. How are things on your end?"

"Admiral here. Aside from Shink and Paradox driving me to the brink to insanity, we're making okay time."

Before Yiski could respond, he heard Jun'ko's voice coming over the radio.

"Aw... and what about me? Don't tell me you've forgotten about me?"

"Jun. You know I can't forget you even if my mind is filled with tar."

Over the radio, Yiski started hearing Zill and Jun'ko getting sappy. While Yiski found it hilarious he would ever see Zill act this way, he gave a hard cough which caught Zill's attention.

"Sorry about that Yiski. Well, we'll be at Yannock soon enough. Keep an eye on the skies Yiski."

"I know. Crimson out."

Lauren chuckles and Yiski turns to her with a flattened expression.

"Oh lighten up Yiski, it's just funny there are all these couples around us."

"Still trying... you were always a stubborn one."

Lauren let out a small sigh and her expression becomes melancholy. Yiski lets out a sigh as well and starts heading back down into the hull.

BdrLineAzn:
--M'Naghten Returns--

Down at the turning engines, BdrLine mumbles to himself as he and the other engineerers work on the engines.

"Out of all aspects of planning these engines, I forgot about sand and how it will affect them. I mean come on, we live by a desert. How could I forget that, at least I know how to modify them when we get back."

As BdrLine goes on his ramble, the othe crewmen looks at him with some faces. He feels them and looks towards them.

"What? Don't look at me like I'm crazy, cause that is why I have why I have my nickname. I'm just thinking of how to improve theses, just go about fixing the again, it's sputtering."

And like he said, the starboard engine start to smoke and sputter which lead to the engineerers to react.
