(( new  thread..after   battle of  funnel))

After talking with Val, Henry sought out the Rec Dec manager to make arrangements for that evening. He asked for a steak dinner to be available - on his tab - along with a vegetarian equivalent (grilled cauliflower), and champagne for toasts. The event was to begin at 8pm. Everyone aboard was invited, making things simple (if expensive!).

 Sam had finished her meal and was just talking with Howe and the other pilots when she got Izzy's comm, and then she responded to it. She had missed her friend and hope she was doing well.

   The  Largs  had their food  brought over by two  older Civie kids . Shadow  helped them take  the Tins  from the cart. He gave the each a  5 cred time  and sat  down as the happy Largs  began to eat.

 The LC looked over the dec to see where Thor  and Mila were.

It had been awhile since Izzy had last been able to spend any time with Sam as her posting in the Burian navy kept them apart most of the time and even when they were on the same ship as one another they tended to spend what little time they had with their respective partners. Needless to say she was looking forward to spending a little time with her.

Stepping onto the rec dec Izzy would look around the tables to see if she could spot Sam sitting at any of them.

 Sam had said good bye to Howe for now, she wanted too spend some one on one time with her friend, it had been a long time since they did. Sam was waiting for her and walked up next to her and said," Hi Izzy so good too see you, come lets get a table and catch up on everything."

 Sam went to the closest table and ordered a soda, she asked Izzy if she wanted anything to drink or eat.

When Sam came to meet her, Izzy would smile and give the other woman a hug and a peck on the cheek as she eagerly greeted her "Sam, I haven't see you in like...forever!" she said in an excitable voice before following her to a table so they could talk. After asking the waitress for a soda as well, Izzy would quickly turn her attention back to Sam with her grinning from ear to ear as she spoke "oh my god, When was the last time that we were able to sit and have a chat? It has to be that spa day right after my accident right?" she said, though she hadn't been feeling  particularly sociable then so it may even be further back than that unless she'd forgotten another time "ok well quick recap; my scars have healed up a little and I didn't lose my eye, thank god, though I now have to wear these super cute  glasses pretty much all of the time...things with Lizzy are still great...oh and I'm now in SEC" Izzy rapidly said in order to bring Sam up to speed before continuing at a more relaxed pace and move onto more enjoyable topics "So how are you? How's life in the Burian Navy treating you and more importantly have you hooked up with any little green men?" she asked with an impish smile and a giggle.

 Sam smiled and replied," Yes it has been way too long Izzy." Sam is excited to see and spend some time with Izzy. After she asked how long it was, Sam replied," Oh wow you wherent that talkative after your accident but that was the last time we talked my friend."

 Then Izzy went through her recap, Sam smiled and replied, " Wow yes you look great Izzy, glad you kept your eye, yes I love your glasses they look great on you, and Yes I have heard you over the Comms, you are working with Beth. That is all great Izzy."

 Sam smiled, and replied,"  I am good, went into the tunnels under Roussa and fired a pulse rifle for the first time and did pretty good. Well it isnt easy we did real good in the last battle and we know have part of Roussia as well.  No I havent hooked up with any little green men, I have been spending time with Howe and it is better i kept romantic involvements out of the Burian navy it might get weird." Sam giggled with her friend.

 Then Sam said," So how do you like working with Beth, if you have any questions please ask ok Izzy.?"

 Mara came over, placing a fresh Shake by Shadow, she had one herself.Since when does  the  flying  Ace  get stuck with Larg Duty?

 He Picked up the  cup and nodded to her and took a sip.....I didn't get  stuck, they ran the tunnels with me, then i brought them for some  eats and water.
