Shinkurex:
--Oliver's house--

*Looks at Oliver*

"Yeah... I've been spacing out lately, remembering bits and pieces of when I was a kid... Though I feel like I'm forgetting something important"

*gives a slight shrug*

"I guess this started when the Saloon was closed down for a day"

BdrLineAzn:
--Docks--

*As BdrLine and the two other workers keep melting the ice, pools of water can be seen flowing down towards the trench*

There, i bet we can thaw out this place by days end

*to the other two workers*

Come on and lets get this thing finished, the faster we are, the more time i can drink at the saloon

*To Jun'ko*

Jun once you get that running, see if you can defrost those crates there, i think they are medical supplies, bet we need them later

--Saloon--

*As Ny-Lee turns on a heater and goes over to melt the ice in the back, she is lost in thought again*
Come on Ny think, how come you are acting like this for a guy you met basically last week?

Yes, i know he is one of the nicer and calmer guy around here, also the way he lightens up the mood when hes around... and how handsome he looks*sigh*

*Then a picture of Roland pops into her head*
*she shakes her head*

Really Ny, now you are thinking about him, you don't know if he likes you back, it could have been a spur in the moment dream kiss

But he does seem a bit attracted... i should go and maybe talk to him

*As she puts down the heater, she goes to the door, but she didn't realized that Roland was going in as well and they both fell over with Ny-Lee on top of Roland*

Roland, i'm sorry, i didn't see where i was going, but there is something i got to ask you

RearAdmiralZill:
-Oliver's house-

*Oliver gives the appearance of a man deep in thought.*

Saloon you say? Well I wouldnt be surprised given what Yiski puts in them drinks of his. Tell me more about these dreams.

-Docks-

*Zill is busy getting people organized for the levy rebuilds. Old and broken items from the Port would be used as supports once the initial wall was in place. Jun'ko could hear him barking orders.*

Ah that voice. So commanding....so.....

*She hears BdrLine and shakes her head. Those thoughts would need to wait.*

Sure thing Bdr! I think we got this crate of gears ready!

*The generator bursts into life after Jun'ko kicks it. The heaters come to life, and the workers enjoy a bit of warmth.*

Papa Paradox:
--Dandy Lions Trading Co. Headquaters, Paradox's Office--

He sat there behind his handcrafted desk, mechanical legs on the table, smoking a cigar. He leaned deeper into the leather, it creaked and settled. His two most competent advisers,  Jennifer and John, told him of the immense amount of delays.

"Well sir, the entire city is still recovering from yesterdays massive storm. Road conditions are preventing intercity transport of goods, delays will be inevitable..."

"We shut the main hatches of hangars one through forty, to protect the light ships. The large and heavy sized ships were not affected by the weather, save the slight delays from frozen engines and the such. How shall we proceed?"

Papa looked disgruntled, It always unnerved him when they finished each others statements. He straightened his top hat and took his legs off the table to sit up.

"Unload the light ships, equip them with dragon tongues... Today we set the city aflame"

With those words, his assistants were off, they walked down his massive office, the walls lined with bookshelves full of ledgers, Jens shoes echoed as they hit the marble floor. Paradox walked to the viewing balcony behind his desk, from here he could oversee the massive trade dock, a sea of hangars where the small ships resided, and the large ships that were forced to weather the storm. Within minutes forty hangar doors started to retract. Once opened the only sounds he heard were sputters and cracks, and then a low hum as hundreds of ships began to leave the hangars, as more and more ships hit the minimum safe distance, the engine sounds culminated in a symphony of metal. 

"Well this should hurry things up, everyone knows the council is flakin' useless."

Shinkurex:
--Oliver's--

*Rubs the back of his head in a nervous reaction*

"Well... that's the thing... It's back when I was a boy, when I joined my first airship... We were ambushed by raiders... The ship did not make it, and I was lost at sea... But that's all I can remember"

*Sighs*

"I don't know Oliver... Maybe I need to head back to the Saloon, and forget all about this"
