RearAdmiralZill:
-Triage-
Annoyingly to Jun'ko, the doctors made her leave for the procedure. She waited in the main lobby for him to come out, complaining about doctors or something to that effect. The thought made her grin. Instead though, the doctor came out to see her and sat down.
Doctor
"We got the shrapnel out, but there were complications."
Jun'ko
"Oh no..."
Doctor
"The areas around the shrapnel had gotten infected, so we removed the tissue. He has refused any synthetic or metal implants to replace what is lost of his torso. We figured maybe you could talk to him and see if you could convince him."
The doctor offered his hand and she got up and followed him back. Jun'ko knew she wouldn't change his mind. They got to the room and Zill was sedated. Jun'ko saw the gaping hole in his left torso and cringed.
Jun'ko
"What will happen if you simply patch it up?"
Doctor
"Well, that left side will be noticeably smaller than the right. He will possibly need physical therapy to get used to it, and his internal organs will be much more vulnerable from that side. A simple....
Jun'ko
"Then patch it so we can go."
The doctor was shocked, and at that was rendered speechless. He stood there for a moment before getting to work.
BdrLineAzn:
--Saloon--
To Yiski
"Yeah, so far as for the two groups, my friend said that he got the mercenary guild out of Chang-ning and, you'll like this, the Baron ships and crew were part of the fleet you were in during that conflict."
The BdrLine looks at Yiski and sees a mischievous smile creeping on his face.
BdrLine
"Hold on, I now that face."
Yiski
"What, I don't know what you mean."
BdrLine
"Ohh don't give me that. Me here plus new brews equal taste tester. And for your answer nope not going to happen."
Yiski
"Come one BdrLine, what's the worst that can happen."
BdrLine
"Your last two brews made me go crazy and I had the runs for the whole day. Also when I saw Jun with the Bomb Sake, it knocked her out cold. Unless you get some other fool to try them, I'll pass. Hellfire, Frost Fire Ale, and maybe Clear Skies are enough for me now. ...Which reminds me, can I have a Hellfire?"
Yiski:
--Port Tar Barrel--
After a few hours of piloting like a madwoman, Lauren finally set Kyllo back in its pier. Her crew immediately hopped off and started kissing the ground, thankful they had survived. Lauren laughed.
As she walked through the port, she noticed a transport ship had docked and passengers were getting off. She then spotted Ny-Lee and Roland and a wide grin came across her face as she slowly started stalking them.
Roland
"They did not say if they were meeting us here, did they?"
Ny-Lee
"With how busy everyone usually is, it's probably best we head for the saloon."
Roland
"Right, then let u.... WOAH!!"
Roland was caught off-guard with a sudden hug from Lauren.
Lauren
"It's good to see you two!"
Ny-Lee
"Thank you, but I think it's best you let my husband breath a little."
Lauren let go of Roland who took a few breaths and looked at Lauren. She grinned and patted him on the back.
Roland
"It is good to see you to Lauren. Are you the only one here?"
Lauren
"Yup. Got done flying around a bit in Yiski's squid, but those crewmen don't know a thing about how to operate a high-speed squid. That and I don't want to be the first to try any one of his new brews."
Ny-Lee
*Giggles* "So he's made a few new brews. I wonder if my poor brother will be his guinea pig?"
Lauren
"Ooo! Let's go find out."
And the three set out for the saloon.
--Saloon--
Meanwhile, Yiski and BdrLine were still arguing over taste testing.
Yiski
"So you didn't react well to the Wild Wind. That's two unusual brews out of what... six? Odds are in your favor."
BdrLine
"By those odds, that just means one of the three new brews will drive me up the wall. Again, no thanks."
Yiski
"Spoil sport."
BdrLine
"Why don't you try it first?"
Yiski
"Well, I'm clearly leanin' to say they're good if I try them."
Thirty minutes pass by as the two continue to argue when Lauren, Ny-Lee, and Roland enter. Yiski sees them and walks up to Roland and give him a firm handshake followed by a hug for Ny-Lee. Afterwards, BdrLine give his little sister a hug.
Yiski
"So how did you two enjoy your honeymoon and sorry you had to cut it short because of us."
Ny-Lee
"It was wonderful. Cathedral is so much larger than Anvala."
Roland
"Even if we did stay the entire time, that just means something to go back to later, right love?"
Ny-Lee leans in and kisses Roland.
Roland
"So what is it I hear about new brews Yiski?"
Yiski
"Yeah, got some inspiration and made three, but nobody wants to try them."
Ny-Lee
"Well after the Wild Wind incidents, I don't blame them. What did you brew this time?"
Yiski
"Two beers and one whiskey."
Ny-Lee
*Looking at her husband* "You feeling adventurous?"
Roland puts his gaze toward the back with a slight nervous expression.
Roland
"Why not."
Yiski
"Perfect. I'll let you try the beers first."
Ny-Lee and Roland sit at the bar while Yiski heads to the back and gets a mug of each beer. He comes back out and hands the couple two mugs. One beer has a tan color with a tan head. The other beer was pitch black with a white head. Roland took the black beer and Ny-Lee took the tan. The two looked at each other and at their beers before clinking them and having a taste.
Ny-Lee's tan beer seemed to go smoothly for her, but Roland could only take a few sips before putting down his mug.
Roland
"Wow, that is bitter and heavy. The taste also lingers a bit. How is yours dear?"
Ny-Lee
"The flavor is smooth and light, but is a bit rough going down. It's good though."
The two switch and try each others beer and came to the same conclusion. Yiski had a wide grin across his face.
Yiski
"I think I'll call the tan beer Desert Storm Pale and the black beer Tar Cloud Stout."
Lauren
"Pretty apt names for those beers."
Roland
"What about the whiskey?"
Yiski
"Maybe I'll get Jun'ko to try it." *Looks at BdrLine* "Unless you want to man up and try it."
Honeybadger:
-Saloon-
Honeybadger stirs on the couch and looks up at Roland and Ny-Lee
Honeybadger
"Well hello you two."
Honeybadger sits up on the couch, his jacket is still red from blood, he scratches his head.
Honeybadger
"How was your trip?"
BdrLineAzn:
--Saloon--
Ny-Lee and Roland turns to Honeybadger to tell him about their trip, but was stop short at the sight of him. Both turn to Yiski to ask what happen, and Yiski wore a face that said it was his own doing and that maybe he will tell them later. The two of the shrugs it off and face Honeybadger again.
Ny-Lee
"Our trip was lovely, Cathedral is a majestic city to be in."
Roland
"Far big to explore during our stay."
From the counter, BdrLine hears Badger and a thought goes through his mind. He gets up and goes to the couch and puts an arm around him.
BdrLine
"Say there Badger, I bet that you feel some pain on you right? Well you see Yiski here has made a new brew and I think it will make you feel much better."
