"Yes, Mr Culvin is one of them," He says to Alison as she catches up, "If you haven't notice, the rest of the crew is on board or arriving. Besides him we have a Mr. Larson and Mr. Kasparov."

He leads her u tip they are at the entrance to the Command Center.

Opening the hatch, he sees Ulric already there talking to several people.

"Ah that is one," Frey then hears Alison, "Yes why do you ask."

Alison turns to get Alister, calling over her shoulder, "Alister and I crewed on his ship, the first six months after he left the military. They get along, but they can be, rivaling on some matters." After that she heads to the cargo bay.

"I- Uh- Huh." She hadn't actually noticed that she was gone, which meant she wasn't as observant as she thought she was. But that still meant she had no idea where she was.

"Where is she?"

--Eagle's Shadow, Hanger Bay--

Amelia tilted her head in confusion, "I don't understand. Is she not the trained medical professional on board? Wouldn't that make her, by status as a licensed practitioner, the ship's physician?" She looked at the two of them, "Isn't that right? Lorena? Mr. Carn?" Her eyes darted between them, "I am correct yes? No?"

Lorena shook her head and placed a hand on her shoulder, "Just stop."

"Essentially, she can professionally splint a broken bone, or stitch you up. She also knows which drugs to use. The rest only know combat medicine. Meaning I patch you up, then throw you back in the fight."

Alison comes in and starts on Alister, "Command Center, Frwy's orders. Briefing also, Alexi is on board." After that she leaves.

"I guess I should go to the Command Center. Nice talking with you ladies." After that, he heads to the Command Center.

Poking his head into the hangar bay, Koali chimes in...

"Nothing a shot of adrenaline can't fix!"

Going through the door Alister sees Frey, Alexi, and two others who he assumes are the other captains. Nodding to Frey, he walks up to Alexi, with a look just shy of intimidating.

"So, YOU signed on?"

He breaks the grim expression in moments, and bearhugs the older guy.

"It's been to long since we worked together you old Guild bastard."

He maintains the bear hug for a few more seconds, releasing it when he hears some slight wheezing.

Reagan was glad when the crowd finally dispersed, though from the looks of it the twins were content to keep watching her as she worked on the little craft's internals. She stayed like that for a while, jotting down various parts that may need replacing, carefully taking apart and reassembling various components, noting every odd fragment of engineering that one could tell that Alex and Richard had been there. It was relaxing, she wouldn't call herself an engineer but knowing the craft she had helped build certainly worked in her favor.

She had to wonder, with all the people joining up, did the birdmen have any agents on board? She remembered the Rocket Race and how they had managed to infiltrate using two vessels disguised in the colors of the guard. Would they be ready for them? There was a very long list of things that go wrong, and not a lot they could do to prevent from happening. Before long she found herself just sitting there wondering what to do.

"Boy, what a mess this is going to turn into."

--Elsewhere--

Lorena looked at the doorway where Mr. Carn disappeared.

"Well he seemed nice."

The twins hear her saying something about a mess while looking at the engine.

"Something wrong?"

"Is it liable to explode?"

"If so,"

"We would like to redact our request."

"What? No, no it's nothing." She shook her head, "Nothing at all." she added under her breath. She sighed and went back to the vessel at hand.

Thinking, Courage snaps his fingers as he recalls what Amelia said to him last night.

"I think I know where she just maybe. Follow me."

As he pulls Dalhia by the hand he calls over to Alex, "Thanks for the test fire, I'll be back for it later!"

Command Center

"Good to see you as well Alister," Alexi coughs, "Sorry dust and age doesn't mix. So how, I see you manage to get this job first eh?"

Alister grins and explains, "There original guy got skittish and bailed. I happened to be first in the sign up line. I'll be running a squid. Alison is aboard too, and along with her usual skills, she also is the most qualified to be the medical officer. My advice, don't get shot."

Alex pulled the charge handle and fired off a slug into the dummy and waved the pair of them off. As they left their sight Richard gave him an odd look.

"Was the slug really necessary?"

"Yes, yes it was."

He shook his head, "And people call me the silly one."

"To be fair you did kick down a complete stranger's door just to inform me about current events."

"I- True, that statement is completely true." He smirked, "To be fair Captain, you've kicked down your fair share of doors."

"Yes, but unlike you they weren't the doors of plainly decent people. Those doors harbored pirates and all manner of scum, they had those kicks coming."

To emphasize his point he put a hand over his eye, "ARRR! Thar be loot to be taking!" He made an explosion sound and struck a heroic pointing pose, "Stop right there criminal scum!"

"And my point is so obviously proven."

"Shut up Richard."

"Pillock."

"Bastard."

--Cathedral--

Content, that was a good way to describe how she felt, being led through the city streets, their footsteps, slightly squeaky, neither hurried nor ambling. She let him lead her along, it was nice really, just the two of them off on a small adventure. She was happy, that was until she remembered the two of the were looking for Lorena and she had to wonder:
  • What is she doing?
  • Where is he taking her?
That aside however she did rather like the feeling of his hands around hers. Which she had to assume was currently the only upside to this situation, considering she had dearly wanted another go at that how-Mercury, skies the Captain could really get to you with that. Finally deciding to look around she realized that the unfamiliar cityscape had become familiar, in the shape of the area near the Guard's Headquarters in the city.

"So," She said sweetly. "Where are you taking me?"

--Eagle's Shadow, Hanger Bay--

Lorena stood and took a few moments to stretch her muscles. Despite having claimed that Amelia would be showing her the engines they had yet to actually do that. Though she didn't mind all that much. The pair of them had moved onto the tank and Amelia was doing her thing and making notes about it, it was kind of nice to see her take this job seriously, though she knew that it was definitely going to bite her eventually.

She watched as Andy the Skysquid slowly floated around Amelia's head, eventually trying to gain her attention with a slow swipe of he/she/its tentacle. Lorena took this chance and quietly slid her arms around her.

"Amelia?"

"Hmm?" Amelia quietly began trying to pull her off to no avail.

"Engines?" She asked as she turned the smaller woman around to face her. "I would really like to look at those now."

Amelia from the looks of it was trying to figure out a response, her lips parting ever so slightly only for them to close. "I suppose." She said neutrally.
