With a small smile creeping, he leads her out of the transport and onto the streets heading towards the Inn. Silently walking, the sun has set over the horizon as the stars starts to sparkle over the Middle Plains. Arms interlock, Courage takes in the sweet bliss of Dalhia being next to him.
Without saying a word the pair arrives in front of the doors of the Wild Winds Inn where they enter. Inside the dining area is filled to capacity as dock workers and those staying at the Inn fill the tables. Seeing who entered, Lia gives a wave to them before going about with orders.
Making their way pass the various people, Courage and Dalhia makes it to the stairs. Relatively clear of the crowd, they make it up and to his room with ease. Inside the bed is made and his baggage still packed, Courage goes over and checks his bags. Satisfied that all of his belongings is still there, he begins to carry them.
"Thanks for the walk, and sorry if I couldn't stay longer. If you want I can walk you back to the warehouse." Courage offers.

Hangar Bay:
"Well, I tuned the engines for maximum performance, adjusted the angle of the armor slightly, tightened up helm controls, replaced a valve in the balloon apparatus, and touched none of the modifications. If those could be made clearer, that'd be great."
Carn:
Hangar Bay
"Fair enough. Can't expect you to properly repair something if you don't know it. The tune-up was a good idea. She belonged to an old guy who hadn't taken her out in a long time."
He walks over to the nearest harness, situated by the rear gun and motions for Gaige to come closer.
"I only have the knowledge and resources to make two major modifications. This is the most basic. All it is, is a leather and steel harness, with about 100 meters of cord. They easily are put on like so."
He puts one on and tightens a strap on his chest. It takes about 1 second.
"The cord is on the back and is attached to this little gizmo."
He pats a small box around 12 inches long, 6 inches wide, and 3 inches tall.
"It stops you from descending at fatal speeds, and leaves your hands free. To remove it in combat, you give this strap a quick tug."
He quickly yanks on a short strip of leather hanging by his left armpit. The harness quickly detaches and is realed back into place.
"Cheap and simple to make and repair. They allow for quick insertions, as well as a escape option. The other modification is underneath, near wear the armor control is. It's a bomb bay, able to hold either 4 100 lb bombs, 2 200 lb bombs, or 1 400 bomb. Wiring connects it to a lever on the helm. The other modification I would have done, if I had the ability and resources, are a special type of engine. Silenced, and with the same output as regulars, albeit at the cost of breaking quicker. But engines are delicate enough, and I don't have any extras to experiment."

Hangar Bay:
"Hm. Bomb bay is simple enough, hinges, maybe a motor, either that or a gear system. Harnesses I'll leave to you. Silenced engines I've heard of, I can provide one to screw around with if need be."
Carn:

"Silenced engines are a delicate design. I can engineer in combat, but building a engine, particularly a silenced one, is a tad complicated. And there are drawbacks to them. In any event, I believe we ship out tomorrow, so it's something I can live without. Now if you'll excuse me, I must go and get some dinner. Went to this place called The Wild Winds, last night. Think I'll go again, good food and a strong drink."
And with that, he heads out. Going out a personnel door, he sees Koali yelling about food to the Hangar Bay door.
"He may need a someone to make sure he doesn't cause trouble."
After that, he heads down the darkening streets to the inn. Upon entering, he takes a seat located by a side door, and where he can see the front door. He motions to the waitress and settles in.
