BdrLineAzn:
*Shocked is all that is on BdrLine's face, after a while he gets out of it*
Sorry just a bit surprised at this, but congrats to ya. I think you and my sister a good for eachother. Sooo whens the first date
*Bdr gives a small laugh*
*From the back, Ny-Lee hears her brother*
*She goes out and hugs him*
Oh thank you that you approve, i knew you wouldn't hurt Roland since you are good buddies. But our first date is to a play write. Still don't know when we are going

-Narrator-
With the Port looking relatively thawed, the levies rebuild proper, and the trench doing its job, things where looking good. The dockworkers that hadnt gone home enjoyed another round on Zill for their hard work. Jun'ko and Zill seemed pretty merry the entire time. If they didnt know any better, they were at the Burning Skies. With things winding down, the workers take their leave. Eventually, its just Zill and Jun'ko left at the warehouse.

*Zill stretches and looks around.*
Looks like its just us left. And im not sure about you but I dont plan on walkin' all the way home. Heaters need watchin' anyway. If you want you can stay in the back room again.
*Jun'ko stretches and walks over to Zill*
That sounds like a mighty good plan to me.
*She starts looking around and gets quiet.*
You dont have to sleep out here y'know.
*Zill stands there, mildy surprised. Jun'ko walks up and give him a peck on the side of his mask.*
No matter what you choose, ill see yea, oh captain. You owe me a surprise still. *She blushes and disappears into the room.*
I owe a few now I wager.
Yiski:
--NARRATOR--
The evening starts early and a few patrons enter the saloon. Many look like they've gotten out of the hospital, others just looking like they need a drink. Roland and Ny-Lee handle the counter, the two giving each other a few pecks as they pass by each other.
Meanwhile, Yiski is piecing together a few make-shift capacitors for the heaters for tomorrow. If there's one thing he's learned from the years in Anvala, he's knows that once a cold storm hits, the near sub-zero temperatures linger for a while.
With the help of PapaParadox's trade fleet, Zill, Jun'ko, and BdrLineAzn manage to clear all the ice off the Docks and manage to gain progress in repairing the Docks. If they can keep the rate up, the Docks will be at full operational capacity tomorrow.
All the while, Zill stands alone on his ship, staring into the night sky. He ponders what he did to deserve someone like Jun’ko as a crew member. Though those thoughts are quickly pushed aside as Zill wonders what he was going to surprise Jun'ko with.
BdrLineAzn sits quietly in his room making plans for his mission to keep an eye on Roland and his little sister’s date in the future. Sure, BdrLineAzn trusted Roland, but a brother can never be too protective of his sister. Right?
Shinkurex slept soundly in his apartment, hoping he could overcome his past and manage to move forward. Whether he succeeded or not would up to him in the next few days.
When the saloon hit closing time in only a few hours, Ny-Lee decided to head back to her brother's place. She declined the offers Yiski made for her to stay again, to her and Roland's disappointment, but she did reluctantly agree to have Roland walk her back.
As the two walked through the frozen night, they huddled close to keep warm and chuckling at the rapid set of events which now made them a couple.
When they finally arrived at BdrLineAzn's place, they shared a goodnight kiss. After Ny-Lee went inside, Roland made his to his own place with each step he took having a light bounce to it.
--NARRATOR END--
--END OF DAY 31--
Yiski:
--START OF DAY 32--
--NARRATOR--
The morning sun raised above Anvala without a cloud in the sky. It was a welcoming sight to those still trying to recover from Day 30's storm. Despite the flood of patients into the hospital and local infirmaries, most injuries were minor and no reported deaths were recorded.
Despite the chilling winds which still blew the streets, Yiski woke up in the comfort and warmth of the saloon. Even after the closing, Yiski worked and finished the capacitors and got the remaining heaters working. He checked on the stills to and barrels to make sure those weren't frozen over (There are no heaters where the stills and Hellfire barrels are stored for obvious reasons). Being content all the equipment was functional, Yiski headed to the front and unlocked the door.
As soon as it was, it was opened and Roland rushed in, shutting the door quickly behind him.
I'm gonna guess it's a bit chilly outside still? He smirked.
Of course it is Yiski. I did not think I would have gotten here without some frostbite.
Yiski laughs.
You're young, hardy, and full of fiery spirit. He smirks again. Speaking of fiery, you got anythin' special planned for you and Ny?
Roland blushed remembering how yesterday's event rewarded him with Ny-Lee. It brought a wide smile to his face.
Yes, I plan on taking Ny-Lee to a play write. I believe there is one performing tomorrow.
Yiski scratched his head.
Maybe... you know I'm not all into the fancy arts. You'd probably have better luck asking either Qwerty or Oliver.
Roland nodded his head in agreement. All the while, still having his wide grin. Yiski shook his head and laughed.

RearAdmiralZill:

-Narrator-
The low hum of the generator keeping the Port heaters working was the only sound this cool morning. Zill had accepted Jun'ko's invitation to sleep in the warmth of the back room. He was fast asleep in his overstuffed chair while she occupied the bed. All this thoughts the night before about Jun'ko kept him up for a couple extra hours, so he was still out cold. Jun'ko was the first to begin waking up. She let out a low sigh when she discovered she was alone in the bed.
Maybe I was too forward. Drat!
Her thought was interrupted when she was startled to see Zill in the chair overlooking the bed. She figured out in the passing minutes that he was still sleeping. She grinned.
Always the gentlemen. I wonder...
She slowly rose out of bed to keep quiet, wearing only her undergarments. She carefully straddled Zill in the chair. Then she slowly went to remove his mask. This was enough to wake him. He was dazed at first.
Looks like another dream....wait a second...
His hand catches hers on the back of his head. She jumps and chuckles.
You werent supposed to wake up, oh captain. I see you made yourself comfy.
Took me half the night to come in here, truth be told. I thought i was dreaming there until i felt your unyielding curiosity.
Well, I dont intend to kiss a mask all the time.
Zill couldnt resist the charm. His grip slowly loosened on her hand and she undid the mask, slowly revealing his face. She smiled.
Now was that so bad? Yiski was right to tall you a looker.
Yea no kidding. Im amazed this hasnt put you off yet.
Nonsense. I see an Admiral worthy of praise.
Zill only smirks. She leans in and grants the kiss she promised. In Zill's darkened world, it was a ray of pure sunshine. The kiss lasted 10 seconds, though it felt like an eternity. She then gets up to get ready.
Im still expecting my surprise y'know.
By my count, a few are in order now.
Jun'ko disappears into the back, humming a tune. Zill only grins.
