Gia chuckles  along with the Rest, Angel food   had  done  as  much for the  humans  as Angel Steel has...   she raises her  eyebrows  a bit,or?...Angel Silk..

  ..there are many more  dorrs open  for people now?... No longer  can one look at a couple  to see if they are  'may -December'..... On Etna, There was a woman Merchant.. earth age..close to 8o?... Body age?..perhaps  Mid  20's.. her paramour was 30 Earth years...that looked to be  close to  mid  20's.

 Flores  Nodded,..I heard  My father talking to  a Med tech one  time at some boring party... They said...at that time...Med Tech was starting to unravel the Mystery  of Angel longevity...the  leading theroy is, we would have a life span of Angels, had not the other  races   began to  dump off thier people,  as well   as try to settle in on Earth..the Mixing of species, along with testing , screwed up  our DNA....with Angel Food  in everything now? our Bodies  are starting to correct themselves.. there is a damn good chance we'll start getting younger as bodies  re-adjust..the  off shoot of that, is the decline of births..so?..we live a lot  longer, but have a lot less   kids..


 Abby  just  nodded as she listened...me?.. I wanna  find someone to not be afraid to  tell people  that i am going to bed  with him.....I've  seen some women  sneaking thier  boyfriends in the back door, because they we're not much to look at....haven't see too many Blokes on this boat that  i'd have to hide..

...................

  The Germans  were coing  back.. Lt  Von Straff began to  shout,..vhere  ess  das  stupid   Girl!..  I told her ve  vould be back!

  Sneak walked  right up to the Table. But didn't  say a thing, she did  glare at the LT, right in the eye.

 At the  words, 'Stupid Girl'.   Shadow stood Up.. Jax  stood  and  began walkign to the  Table.. Will stood up... Hawkes  grabbed Jax,  .. But stood  with him.

 it wasn't  until a  deep Voice  came from another  Table, Supe, Hodden, Minnet and Tucker  all stood.....begging your pardon , LT? But you'll   apologize to that lady... and then ..you'll shut your  gods be damned mouth for the rest of the night...

 ..I Vill do  no such thing.. dis girl did not  Listen to my orders,..

 Supe looked at the dec and shook his head,..you are  new here.. so i pass it off  as you not knowing?... Not listening?..now..that just  means you're stupid..

 ..I Vill  haf you brought up on charges....

 Shadow   walked  passed Jax  and  Hawkes, Grabbing JAx   by the    arm  and pulling him away from   the other SEC trooper

 Listen... Von Straff....these women  are the few guys who serve the Dec...they aren't slaves...  Will  moved up along  side    Shadow.. Hawkes   was behind Jax.. Hemsly..with a bit of a disgusted look came up on the other  Side... everyone  from Supe's  table stood, Hodden took off her  tunic , to reveal  a well Muscled , broad shouldered   upper body  wrapped in a tight  Hermes  tank top.

 ..I'm not in the Mood, Von Straff.... so let me lay it out  for You... we can beat the 9 hells out of you, and  any of your men who wished to get beat up.... or?... we can go to teh football field and do the same thing,.. you'll have  alot lest damages to pay for then.... or?.. you can do as  Supe said.. Apologize to the   young Lady and shut your  gods  be damned mouth...

Teela walked over to stand with the rest, her eyes shading to black. “That ‘stupid girl’ has lived a nightmare of a life, one you can’t imagine. Apologise or you’ll learn that female Angels are able to rip bodies apart with their bare hands,” she growled.

   a few of the germans sat down.. they looked a bit embarrassed..some stood, lookign a bit angry.

 Sneak looked up at the German..still glared   at him.

 Von Straff    turned to Shadow  and took a step or two  towards him. Shadow  just have him  the annoying halfsmile..

  ..You are   a Superior  Officer  and..

  aye... I am....

  If  you vish  me to apologize, I vill, but under protest..

 ..I don't  give  one damn in  the palace of all the gods.... But you will apologize.. If you have   any further  Issues.. I'm not  on duty for  3  more hours..nor?.. are you...either way?..  you will apologize now..or  we have have to ask Fuji for more replacements.

  Ja, this  i vill do..und  perhaps   we may find the time, vhere you und I  might sort out  our differences...

 Hemsly shook his  head,..don't  Bloody  do it?..  Its  a fools  task, at best...

  Dana  came over  as she clocked on. she stood behind Sneak.

  The  German clicked his heels  and gave  Shadow a stiff   bow, he wheeled  around on Sneak,.. I am sorry  i vas  so  brisk. Please  accept my apology..ve  vill try  understand the vorkings  of this Hermes  crew...

 She nodded   and turned with out a  work, heading to  Supe's table to get thier dishes  and see if they wanted something else.

  Von Straff looked at  Shadow  and  bade him to step away from the tables... they moved  a bit  away close to where  Will and HArry's table, as  Will went to sit down again.

 ..vhy..did  you insist  on making me..und thus, mien  Unit look poorly..is..is  it so harsh to expect servants  to  be tolerable?

   they are not 'servents.. they are servers... they get paid  a wage by the stall operators, but most of thier  Money comes  from tips...they are not slaves..I warned you before.. you will not get another.. But i'll give you this  bit of a warning.... You  show you are good people.. and good crewmates, these  people around you, will die  for you.... Youy act like some   stuffer shirt dumbass?.. there isn't a person on this dec...right now... that could take you apart... he  turns  and adds,..there  won't be another talk like this, from me..

 ..herr Shadow?.... when  could you and   I talk...alone?

 Shadow chuckled, to morrow  morning.. 0800.. i run the tunnels, we  can talk there...

 The german clicked his  heels  and   bowed a bit stiffly  again.

  Shadow Looked at t=his  COM .. he looked  at Shade.. got about   10 minutes before we have to Go... Ask Orria  and Melia  to come as well.. it looks better if  I'm not the only one  translating...

Garrat stood back and let shadow handle it then turned to Shadow.  "Are you done with him for now?"

----> From QM quarters

Zob shook his head as he stepped off the elevator it was seeming the QM quarter wasent working out for him but he was willing to give it another day or two before requesting a reassignment.

Zob took a seat at one of the tables and waved as he saw Sneak doing her rounds and nods in her general direction, he then waves down a waitress to come take his order.

 Shadow smiles, ..I guess?   Unless he shows  up in teh Tunnels  tomorrow..in which case, he'll get to meet Stefi ..

………………..

 Zob  settled  down , Sneak came over  to take his order

Zob looked to her and gave her a small smile, "French toast and sausage with a cup of coffee no sugar" he said giving her his order, "Hope you had a good shore leave"

<quote Kray Shadow>
 Shadow smiles, ..I guess?   Unless he shows  up in teh Tunnels  tomorrow..in which case, he'll get to meet Stefi ..

   Garrats Mythril tatoos a glowing,  "Thank you sir."  Garrat takes two steps, uses his cyborg arm to lift the LT off the floor by the front of his shirt and drive him straight into the deck with cuncussive force.  Only a strategically placed boot kept his head from splattering on the plating.

   "Sneak is my daughter.  I warned you twice.  This is three times because I respect the patches you were given today.  We. Will. Speak. Latter."

Teela stepped up to stand next to Garrat. Her hands were at her side but any who knew her knew it was a ready position as a prelude to violence. Her eyes were jet black as she stood there silently.

Zob watched as a fight was breaking out on the Rec Dec he flipped on his com and casually  called SEC before returning to his coffee that was brought over to him.

  Sneak smiled at Zob, she elane closer  and  said in a hushed  Voice,..it was  amazing..its..its  like a whole 'nother   life!

…………………………………..

 The Lt  Rolled   on the Ground   Simms  and  Nagy  closed in on the position.  Shoey was  at  another  table   just said to the germans,wellcome to  the Hermes...lessons here  are learned  quickly..or  are learn hard....but in the end?.. they are Learned.

  Lyri stepped on the   Dec   a few seconds  after ZOBs   COM....she looked at Shadow  who was waving  for Shade  and Orria  ( and Melia?)  to follow him.

  ..now  what?

  ..nothing..... just a bit of Hi Jinks  Carry on, Master Chief...

Zob chuckled, "I hope you get to enjoy it for many years to come, sadly it's gonna be quite a long while before we return again... heading out to fight the bad guys once again"

He then took a sip of his coffee.

Melia had just gotten her drink and takes a big swallow of it before setting it down and moves over to Orria.  She taps Orria on the shoulder and points at Shade then Shadow, "I think you are being summoned to do your work, Shade is going to need your help." She explains.

Orria looks over to Shade then gets out of line, she had been next but to her Shade was more important.

They head over to Shadow and wait for Shade to join them.

Hawkeye opened by ordering a double Scotch on the rocks then a steak. While she waited for the food she grabbed her drink and headed over to Stefi's table. "Stefi, good to see you well. Lots of new faces around her." She comments, hoping not to startle the Chief Medical Officer.

  Shadow , Shade  and Orria, headed to the    Admiral's  Mess, The  LC  did   give  Melia  a look to see If she was  coming.

……………………………..

   Stefi Looked up  with a tired  Smile,well?..Look who is here!.... They run out  of people to fix  at Matterhorn?

 ..too many new faces... we've been beating the  9 hells out of  everyone, but they have been punching us in the mouth right back... we  picked up  some Kids  from the Stem  on Etna.. The  Scots  are getting  absorbed into SEC.. now we have those Germans..who, as you can see.. are trying to learn the cultural differences...

 ..Lots of strain  taking place... The parties  and   'Delta  Nights' help a bit, but in the end? folks  are bearing alot of  weight. Doesn't help were  are  getting kids out here now, most of them  from Colonies  or Stations  so they have  adapt   alot  faster then most.

...............

 The   Girl smiled,..I am hoping  we   stop at some planets..i have never been on a planet?..at  least, that i remember..

In reply to recDec (msg # 1000):

Melia of course tags along. She gets another swallow of her drink before following Shadow Orria and Shade to the Admiral's mess. There'd be more food there.

In reply to recDec (msg # 1000):

Hawkeye grinned, "well you got the run out part right. Didn't quite get along with commander there. Something along the lines of a few steps over the line when I won his life savings off of him in an old school poker game, which I didn't cheat at. He just can't hold his liquor, or libido in check, then blew it all throwing a massive party for anyone who wanted to show up to honor the delta fleet. The money of course according to the official story was donated by the commander, did him a favor there. The goodwill it bought him was the only thing that kept me out of the brig. Turns out he went looking for ways to send me back to, I believe in his official letter to the Admiral he can be quoted as saying 'if she does to the delta fleet what she did to me, then the ESN is finished.' She takes a swallow of her drink. "How many of the Scots are left?she asks

 Stefi   shakes her head...9.... 8 if you  don't count  McCloud.. he's been in and out of Med tech.. Nerves they say?.. I dunno...he came aboard   with 40 some people..and a few injections of replacements, but now , most of that is  cut off from earth.. The Scots  are   staying home to  Help Hunter's people fight EDT..You get a chance.. You should  drop in and see him... he was in Med tech yesterday.. don't remember them checking him out..Tried to get him to go on shore leave, but   he wouldn't...

 she snorts,doesn't help  Lt McNiel seems like she wants the Galatic Medal Of Honor... she has  had some run ins  with the LC  during Delta Nights... If you ask me, the real leader   of the Scots  right  now  is SGT Hemsly

Hawkeye frowned and took a deep drink, "that's a shame about the Scots though. I'll be sure to pay Rolf a visit, hopefully I can pull him out of it. Sounds like McNiel needs a shot of sedative to me. Damn shame the way some folks hunt for glory, get good people killed that way for nothing more than a useless piece of dirt. There's too much of that nonsense, too much death too. It'll be a blessing when the bleeding's done." she says finishing her drink. She sighs and looks around, "It wouldn't surprise me if we all weren't a little messed up in the head after all this. Make some shrinks a bunch of money as they add new conditions to their ledgers with their names on them."

 Stefi    chuckled,some folks  weren't changed  by the war.. you look at the LC  and his cronies?. they were messed up  before they got out here.. she grinned  , and took a sip of her  drink.

 ..we  got Melia  back   a bit ago...  between you two and the    Assault team medics, we  might being  back more people, and less bodies..That is  ...if you're  still ready to go in an assault shuttle.

Hawkeye chuckled, "These days I doubt I could do surgery under any other conditions. Though I won't rest easy if we aren't bringing back more alive. Yeah I'll be on those shuttles again."

With their conversation interrupted by the angry shouting of the German Lieutenant Harry would watch as the situation quickly snowballed with them only narrowly avoiding a brawl because the  Lt in question chose to back down. The situation was then further exacerbated by Garrat and Teela then accosting the man with the Asgardian growling threats at him as his feet dangled in the air.

It was as Will was returning to his seat that Harry would speak, not even deigning to look up from her meal as she did so "Well that was bloody stupid, let's hope you never have to rely on those guys coming to the rescue because you've all just successfully managed to piss off and humiliate an entire KSK squad" she said feeling that the reaction to the incident had been more than a little overblown considering that he'd had every right to be upset with her. Sure, he had been out of order shouting at her like that, but she had been just as out of order throwing out their food especially seeing as they'd asked for it to be left out for them "yet another bar fight started by a silly girl" she grumbled before lifting her eyes to give Will a rather cool look "oh and for the record if you'd got your ass handed to you by a German Kommando you'd have got no sympathy from me Will Call!" men are bloody idiots at times!

  Yeah?  Right?  they can't  hardly even speak english!....how are they gonna  take on a Hermes SEC trooper

 Flores  Give   Will a  wink,..Blade  cuts  both ways...they are gonna need  air support, more then   we'll need a Moutnain climber..

 ..ah , well... time to hit  my  bed...funny?... haven't slept in a bed all damn shore  leave...

 Gia  looks at her,..but..You had a place  to sleep at Shadow's she walked  away with a hand   in the air  giving a   promqueen wave.....I said..Slept....

 Abby's  Brow was  furrowed   until she said... ..OH!

After giving Will a look that made it clear that she thought what he just said was the dumbest thing she’d heard all week she’d reply to Flores’ comment about them needing air support ”True...but it doesn’t make for a healthy working relationship if no one trusts each other” she said with a weary sigh as Flores got up to say good night.

Finishing the last of her chilli, Harry would return Flores wave before giggling in response to Abby’s reaction to how the other pilot had spent her shore leave ” I warned you that we like to party hard...speaking of which...Will honey, between the beach and last night you’ve kind of worn me out, any chance we could go back to our quarters and watch Captain Lightning vids until I fall asleep on your shoulder?” she asked with a hopeful look on her face, because as much as she’d enjoyed their time together she was really looking forward to getting some sleep.

 Will  took his  COM of his belt  and Looked,..yeah?.. I Don't  have duty  for another  8 hours , so we can get  some sleep... I'm thinking   HAmlet feels  abandoned

  Aby looks  at them....Hamlet?

 Will rises  he puts   10 creds  down for a tip, as he grins  at Harry...

 Gia  reaches over  and gives Abby a  pat on the shoudler,...do not   work , little one..you will catch up in time...

.......................

 Stefi. smiled at   Hawkeye....we had a few  folks  try thier hand at being  a Hermes Med tech since you left?... as you  see?..I'm the only one still standing... Guardians are a bit shocked , they had to use thier  weapons more then once..a few of them were  Gunned  down... I bet they didn't see that coming...
