Uncharted Skies

"Know her!?" Richard said from where he stood, "I was married to her! Best advice, she doesn't take threats well, actually, no one I know take threats well. Don't coddle her, try not to act superior in her presence, she may act like a badass sometimes but really she does things without thinking and hopes that the fallout isn't all that terrible, one of the reasons she had a desk job, that and she's actually really good at paperwork."

Alex laughed, "The four of us served in Firnfeld," He pointed to Preston who was examining an engine for parts, "He's the fourth."

He put some thought to the question though, "She's a good officer but as Richard said, she sometimes acts without thinking her actions through, though this tends to be regulated to out of combat situations. She'll keep her head in combat, though keeping her head may involve charging straight in, she's not a small woman but it does tend to surprise people."

"MARRIED?! Good grief. Unfortunately she seems to try and act as MY superior, which until I'm told by the brass otherwise, I won't accept." Alister thinks for a moment, recalling something from this morning. "We're you Captain Richard Morgan? We got a guy who was terrified when we said Captain Morgan. I forget his name....."

"You might have done something to bother her, you can usually tell when she's joking. Keep an eye on that." Richard said as he finished up his cataloging. Walking over he passed over a notepad to Alex. "And I haven't technically gone by Captain for what? 6 years now? Also I'm not terrifying, am I?"

"Sounds about right." Alex said looking through the notepad, ignoring the question all together.

[Carn]

Warehouse

"It's entirely possible I annoyed her. Today has been, turbulent, to say the least. I almost exploded while waking up, almost lost it on some idiotic guards, my ex and I had a fight, mind you it wasn't a verbal fight. Then I have to deal with a traitorous, sociopathic former friend. And I haven't even had lunch yet." Turning back to Richard, Alister adds to his earlier statement. "He seemed afraid due to what you do to engines. Either that or how you pilot."

Alex smirked, "Definitely how he pilots, his idea of crag flying is to make sure the ship only grazes the walls, when there is clearly enough space to fly rather comfortably at the center of the crevasse."

Richard rolled his eyes, "Anyway!"

"Not to mention the time he thought that flying below the tree line in Chaladon was a good idea."

"ANYWAY!"

"Captain I found the mer- Howitzers." Phillip was setting up a flag where he found them for later retrieval.

Richard sighed at that, "Anyway, give her some time to get used to you and things should smooth out a bit from there."

[Carn]

Warehouse

Outloud he says, "Fair enough." Mentally though he's wondering if anyone has gotten used to him. "Seriously? Below the Chaladonian tree line? What gave you that idea?"

[BdrLineAzn]

Armory

"Oh I'm just out and about, looking over some of the files and I needed some time to decompress." he answers Amelia.

Turning to the weapons cart, he picks up a small sun machine gun and examines it.

"The Raven Twins huh? If you are asking about the King, then both of you must be far from the bloodline."

The Warehouse

Lifting his pant leg over his upper thigh, Courage carefully removes the prosthetic from his stump. Placing the 'leg' aside, underneath the hard plastic cover is a very soft sock and several layers of bangages. Cut right below his knew, Courage begins to massage the area releasing some of the tension.

"Captain Henley, what's wrong with the Mercurys? I know the ones you salvaged were the newer models that Yiski design, but they shouldn't have a problem. Only reason we, well mainly Bdr, are asking you is that we are restricted to what we can receive from the Anvalan weapon storage."

[Carn]

Armory

"Our grandfather."

"He was the younger, bastard brother,"

"To Gregor's grandfather."

Warehouse

Perking up his ears, the understanding of what Courage is talking about fully sinks in.

"Anvalan filed guns! You have some?! How much for one?"

[BdrLineAzn]

The Warehouse

"They are hard to come by. Majority of the guns are inside the city, those on our airships are quickly salvaged if the ship goes down so raiders or any faction won't get the technology. Reason there are a few here that after the Baron invasion, the surroundIng area was filled with debris." Courage says to Carn.

Armory

"That's a few generations back, maybe that's why I don't know much of the both of you," Frey says.

Putting back the sub machine gun Frey turns to Amelia, "So miss, I notice your little pet that has been following you around. What is it? I never seen it before."

[Carn]

Warehouse

"No kidding they're rare. I know one guy who tried to smuggle some out. Heard he's been put away for 50 years. A tad higher than the usual punishment for weapons smuggling. I'll pay top coin Alex. If it works, then I'll be happy to do business."

Armory

"We only got to go to court a few times."

"Still, why do you think gramps chose the name Raven?'

"Gave him a bit of flare."

"And The Raven Twins,"

"Sound so much better in a introduction than James and John."

[BdrLineAzn]

The Warehouse

"Oh should see the power if any of those guns were to get out. I'll show you with the Merc, once they find it."

Readjusting the prosthetic back on, Courage slowly stands and place some of his weight to his right. Feeling the pressure from the spring, he balances on the fake foot for a moment before stabilising himself.

"You guys need some help? I know the design specs for it."

Armory

"John and James Raven, sounds almost too patriotic for the Baronies. But I digress, I mean my last name is Frey and I been seen entering the Frey quite often for my name."

[Piemanlives]

--The Warehouse, South Docks--

"We had several, one is currently aboard the Skyrunner actually." Richard said, careful to avoid referring to the weapon by name. "The weapons should be over by that flag." He pointed it out, "Probably going to an issue to pull them out."

In the background Preston realized he had forgotten something on the ship and left.

"Whatever the case," Alex added, "well get them out, eventually."

--Armory--

"Commander, are you aware that was completely and utterly terrible?"

[Carn]

Armory

"Gramps always had a flare for dramatics. Anyways, he and his brother always got along, so he was known for being extremely loyal to his royal sibling."

Warehouse

"I repeat. I'll pay top coin for a working one. Don't happen to have of those specialty rounds I heard about? I'm an explosives man mostly, but I know how to make specialty rounds."

[Koali]

(I can't believe it's taking me this long to put the switch axes on a rack.)

Koali fumbled with one of the axes and accidentally dropped it on the floor, where it bounced around constantly switching between sword and axe form.

"Shi- DAGNABBIT!!! I FORGOT TO PUT THE SAFETY BACK ON!!!"

[BdrLineAzn]

Armory

"Yes I am aware of that, what can't I have some cheesy jokes now and again?" Frey answers.

Soon everyone in the room immdedately jump away from the wild sword/axe that have came loose. With its constant switching, the weapon moves uncontrollable as it knocks off several others. Taking cover behind the cart, Frey pulls out his Luger and aims for the spring mechanism. Firing several rounds, the bullets hit the switch point and the axe portion flies out and embeds itself into the ceiling.

Finding the danger has subside, everyone comes out of cover and eyes the teen. While the damage was minimal at best, the wild axe/sword manages to knock several rifles off their racks and much of the equipment.

Pinching the bridge of his nose, Frey looks to him, "Careful next time, we don't want to have a death trap on board. Just go about and clean this."

The Warehouse

"Yeah the gunsmiths know the exact powder ratios to maximise the effect on these field guns, besides that we can still load standard ammunition."

Walking over to where everyone on the crew is searching, Courage lends a hand starts looking through the many racks.

"You guys have a bunch of stuff here. I mean how did you guys find this?" from the rack, Courage picks up a Bakelite radio.
