ShadedExalt:
"OK YOU LOT OF WORTHLESS SWABBIES, CONSIDER THIS A CRASH COURSE IN WHY YOU TREAT EACH AND EVERY ONE OF THESE POOR, NEGLECTED MACHINES LIKE YOUR OWN SON."

Striding up and down the deck shouting orders at the swabbies swarming over the guns, he irritably shoves aside a swabbie to inspect another heavy flak.

"Again?  Rip out the arming mechanism, I'll jury rig it later.  That damned thing is beyond repair."

Carn:
Carn's Cabin

Having been covered in rust and the mysterious sludge, Alister cleans himself up. Unfortunately now his clothes need cleaning. Going to the small trunk where he has begun to store his personal effects, he pulls on a pair of black pants and a blood red shirt. Then he notices a package in the bottom.

In a clear, neat handwriting all to familiar to him he reads the attached note.

"Alister,

    I thought you might want this back. A Commander, even one who must share power, must look good.

    Alison"

Opening it, he finds an old and worn jacket. Patches on the shoulders are faded, where his chevrons used to be. A few bullet holes around the bottom, still smelling of gunsmoke. His old dress uniform jacket, removed of all marks of rank.

"She actually kept this thing....."

Making up his mind, he pulls on the jacket and straps on his weapons belt.

"Time for a visit to the bridge...."

He begins to whistle a cadence song as he walks to the bridge.

Piemanlives:
--Eagle's Shadow, Hanger Bay--

Davis did another round about the craft as he got familiar with the equipment he would have to work with.

“Anyways, it's not like I'm that interesting. Right so-.” He said as he came to face them once more.

“Drinks?” Antonio pulled out a bottle from skies know where. Kei choked on whatever it was she was going to say as she gave him a look.

“Antonio!” She snatched the bottle away from him before she began examining it. “What is this stuff anyway?”

“Sparkling cider.” He said with smirk. Farris exploded in a guttural laugh while Davis was trying desperately to stifle the laughter bubbling to the surface. Kei rolled her eyes and took a swig of the bottle before passing it back to him.

--Eagle's Shadow, Med Bay--

“A bored Alister sounds interesting.” She thought aloud. Though the thought was interrupted as three crew members came in, one of them being carried by the others. “What happened?” Skies above how was someone already incapacitated?!

“He uhh… ate too much.” The man who spoke gave her a rather sheepish look.

“What.” It wasn't a question either.

Carn:
Medbay

Sighing, seats the young man down and shoves a bucket in his hands. Before he can react, she then drives her fist up into his stomach, resulting in him emptying it.

"Any other problems boys?"

Bridge

Walking in, Alister looks for familiar faces, sadly he sees none. So he begins to inspect the area, expertly ignoring the odd looks of the resident crew.

BdrLineAzn:
Gunnery Deck, Starboard

Having found the first Hawacha, Courage starts looking over it loading mechanism.

"Hopefully they don't render this ship defenseless" he says to Amelia. "I don't know who will do the most damage, our own crew or them."

Command Room

Having finishing his rounds, Enger walks on to the bridge and eyes each individual in the room.

"Well, are we ready for departure?" He says curtly

"In a moment Councilman," Coming behind him is Frey, "But beside some onboard repairs we are airworthy."

Frey takes in the crew and notices Carn, "Ah Mr. Carn. Making the rounds?"

(sorry, had finals)
