Agreeing with Sillia on letting Thirteen having his space, and aravae needing to find something to do, he says "Sure"  he winks back at her and says  [Language unknown: It naunre nc haanpe, er Oushaseen.]

In reply to Michelle Grey (msg # 44):

Kaarle follows her lead getting cleaned up and ready for the evening.  Once everything was squared away he took her by the hand led her out of the quarters.   It was past normal dinner at this point having lost track of the time but that was okay.  There were other plans. He was annoyed that the guards were still hanging around but tried to ignore their presence.   This was Michelle's night after all.

"We'll need to stop and talk to the cooks for a minute about dinner preparations" he said as they made their way to the officers lounge.  They stopped by the kitchen along the way to speak with the cooks briefly.  When one had finally noticed them he spoke to them respectfully.

"Excuse me but the commander said to stop by with our orders for this evenings dinner with him at 20:00.  Any recommendations?" He said not really sure what he wanted.  He'd eastern only mess hall food for far too long...

@ Gargoyle

She paused for a moment, then leaned over enough so she could see him better. "My music is my solitary place, my drawing, in most cases is my diary. You can come up." She then sits up, and he can hear some shifting and scooting about as she seemingly makes room.

  Sillia gives a little chuckle at Xavier last commit. "We shall see love!"

  @ Mirage - He looks at her, she was not what he expected in a Zentraedi warrior. "She is a great pilot. unconfirmed rumors have it she held 10 of the fighter pods off alone while the others were safely away. Her plane almost did not make it back." his look told her it was not uncomfirmed. "lucky for her the others got there in time. I heard them say another shot would have cripped her veritech and that would have finished her for your."
   "Yea the kids on this ship have been training since they could move to be the perfect soldier. When they upset high command they are terminated. Its best not to discuss it to loudly. As its the Gambits and NERV's little dirty secret."

  He gives a slight chuckle as he thought of the stories he heard of the encounter; "Your not a twirler or your not into having some stranger grab at you and try to spin you? I agree everyone needs to be treated with respect" again he chuckles. Yea Kaarle is very tense. But I think he is flying against a ghost right now. its his first command from what I have heard." he nods with the last one.

  His eyes narrowed a bit flirting with you as he leaned forward some as to keep anyone else from listening. "I like your squad mates, but I'd like to learn more about you, where are you from?"

  @ Skyrah - Nick climbs up ducking down so as not to hit his head. He sits across from you. "what are you working on? How would you like me to address you?" you see on his own collar he is wearing the bars for a third lieutenant. "How long have you been a pilot?"

She slowly nods to the new information as she waits on her foot, she is her normal composed self, seemingly on top of things.

"That whole situation is so bizarre.  I didn't know what to think, I am not a doll, though, and I won't be treated like one."

She smirks a moment.

"Yack, Deculture."

As he leans in, she holds her ground, she has been sitting up straight with her hands in her lap when not otherwise occupied, her right ear twitches once.

"Eden..."  She does not elaborate, and seems to be mulling over things before saying more.</purple>

Silas looks up as the door to his cell is opened, he gets up and walks behind the guard that leads him to LCDR Fell's office.

Once inside LCDR Fell's office and is told to sit he politely says "Ma'am, I prefer to stand Ma'am." hoping his simple request to stand will not make her any angrier then she already is.

Yes, Ma'am, I understand Ma'am, he tries not to flinch when he sees the anger on her face. Yes Ma'am, I will apologize to the squad for my behavior. Ma'am.

He looks apologetically towards LCDR Fell and before she could dismiss him he says Ma'am, I would like to apologize to you first, I know that the conduct of my behavior was not the greatest, and would like to state that when I meet new people, I always put on a little bit of show, however I did not expect for things to go so far, so fast. Please forgive my behavior. I will not do it again.

After being dismissed from LCDR Fell's office, he looks up his room assignment, makes his way there, he stops at each of the officers quarters and knocks on their doors.

The first Door he comes to is Lt.Valentine and Lt.Fallyna he knocked gently, loud enough for anybody inside to hear, but not so loud as to startle them.

When Lt.Fallyna answered the door, he spoke quickly for the fear of getting the door shut in his face. Ma'am, I am here to apologize to you and Lt. Valentine. is she here with you too? When he sees that she no-longer looks like she will slam the door in his face he continues to give his apology to her.Ma'am, I would like to apologize to you, I know that the conduct of my behavior was not the greatest, and I did not expect for things to go so far, so fast. Please forgive me of my behavior.

He was just about to knock on Lt.Grey and Lt.Cherkovski's door, when he thought he had heard them in a conversation and feeling that it was too soon to apologize just yet, he decided to wait till a more appropriate time.


He gets to his quarters, he doesn't see karma, but he does see her stuff in boxes on her bunk, he quickly settles his stuff, takes a quick shower, changes and heads to find the rest of the squad so that he can apologize to them for his behavior.

OOC:  Assuming he caught Mirage before she headed out for dinner.

She answers, she is in dress uniform, B's.  Her coat hanging up in sight.

"The name is Mirage.  Mirage Fallyna.  Callsign Delta.  I will expect better from you.  I will see you at the party, please excuse me, I need to finish getting ready."

She's firm, and will not continue the conversation further, closing the door again.

@ Silas - When you approach Lieutenants Cherkovski and Greys, your stopped by to fully combat ready black ops guards. "Sorry Sir. These quarters off limits to anyone not clear to visit."


  @ Mirage - as soon as he sees your ear twitch. he straightens up. "Sorry. I do not mean to be intimidating to you." Pointing to your ear; "Does it twitch when your angry, nervous or excited? Combination of the three?" He does not lack confidence.

  He nods "Eden, I was stationed there before I was brought here. I guarded the Commanders Shuttle hanger, while training our youngest pilots."

@ GARGOYLE

She turned her sketchbook around so that he could see it. "It's a picture of Albatross. How I want him to be painted. Eventually." It was a drawing of her Delta, the coloring of that of a Earth bird, the Albatross. "I read that in the days of wind navies on Earth, there is a bird called the Albatross that is said to bring the sailors of the ship it followed good luck. If they brought it harm though, it would instead bring them bad luck." She explained. Which explained a bit about her own luck and the luck she brought to others. "All of them I've seen pictures of have the white body, some have all dark wings, but others have wings that go from white near the body and center of the wing to dark at the edge of the wings. And I saw one that even had a yellowish neck and head." She would show him a couple other idea's.

"We're the same rank, and alone. I...guess you can call me Skyrah. Most people call me Reader though." She said quietly, leaving the choice completely up to him. "I been training to be a pilot since I could walk. So I guess you could say, I been one since I could remember." She managed a small chuckle at that thought, then gave a small sigh. "What made you want to work on our Veritechs? Or...I mean...be a mechanic." She asked a bit nervously.

@ Gargoyle

She blinks at him, starts a hand to her ears, then stops.  "My ears don't..."  Her eyes narrow at him, then she shrugs.  "Gah.  I don't know.  Mercia thought it was cute, and.. that was probably from me thinking too hard."  She sits a little looser, more relaxed.

"I grew up there.  Eden.  Born, raised, trained.  More or less.  It's home."

Silas will find that Skyrah is not in the room.

@ Skyrah - he returned her smile. "When alone, I call you Skyrah. Its pretty and sounds pleasant. But When others are around Ill use your call sign." He listens to her story of the bird that brought luck to the fleet. Making a mental not of all the small details of the pictures. "Well I have always trying to figure out how things worked. I have several degrees in engineering, electrical and Starship designs. But truthfully Veritechs bring more of a challenge to life. Like being a doctor, I save the lives of the veritechs and their pilots." he smiled with a twinkle in his eye as he thought of the mechanics of it. "I love it truthfully, especially when a pilot sees the work we have done."

Thirteen returned to his exercise routine disregarding the amusement of the man. Each exercise was almost like an attack as he pushed himself as far as he could go. He knew that the exercise would only have a limited impact on how he looked externally but internally it would help, but physically and mentally.

  Michelle was excited and showered quickly, she smiled at the guards as they followed her about. She swaggered teasing them a bit as she walked back in nothing but her bathrobe.

  She smiled at Kaarle thinking she needed to go shopping on the Marcus as soon as she could. She needed civilian clothing. But for tonight she would be a fantasy every creepy old man enjoyed. She pulled out her plaid skirt that was half way up her thigh. the white button up shirt hid the Corset underneath. the knee highs white socks and polished black shoes. She applied her eyeliner to the points and red lipstick. she topped it off when she put a silver heart shape choker on fastening the leather straps in the back. She smiled at Kaale and spun around a little faster each time until she saw him smile.  "You like?"

  She loved holding his hand as they walked. she did not even care about the two boys following them. "Yes Sir." she replied to his directions. when they got to the chef. She smiles and gave him a hug. "Hi, I'd like the chicken four cheese pasta mashed potatoes with lots of extras. and A chocolate cake please. can you make chocolate cake for everyone tonight" she batted her eyes.

 she stood by Kaarle side taking his hand once more, as the cook gave his suggestions.

In reply to Gargoyle (msg # 60):

@ Gargoyle

She managed a smile, which on her looked beautiful, and much better than her normal emotionless demeanor he normally sees. "Father told me what my name means one day, both first and last. Skyrah means eternal life, strength, love and beauty. Valentine means strong, vigorous, healthy." She kinda chuckled at that a bit. "Think my parents were making a statement?" She said managing a smirk.

"The only thing I like as much as music, or drawing, is flying. I feel free when I do it." Then she showed him another picture, one she drew of her hang gliding. "This is what I want to do, through a big canyon I heard was called the Grand Canyon. I heard it was wide enough and people used to do it all the time before the wars. I want to be the first one to do it, once we retake the earth." Then she looked at the picture again. "The books I've read about it in, say people said that when you are hang gliding you feel like you are as free as a bird because you are gliding through the sky with the wind hitting you in the face."

  @ Thirteen - Another hour passes and the Marine walks over to you. "You any good in hand to hand combat kid? It be fun to do some kata's and drills with someone besides the air."

  @ Skyrah - He smiled at the meaning of her name. And she glowed when she smiled. "Well your parents were right about your beauty. You should smile more Skyrah." He looked at the hang glider. It did not look to complicated mechanically. "I think that would be fun." he replied to her desire to fly the canyon. He had a hard time not staring.

In reply to Michelle Grey (msg # 62):

Kaarle was more then a little impressed with Michelle's outfit.  He smiled broadly as he stood there in his own jeans, form fitting white tshirt and black leather jacket.  It was literally like they had just gotten out of classes for the day and were ready to paint the town red. "Yes" he said still smiling. 

After Michelle had placed her order and he listened to suggestions he decided on what he wanted.

"I'd like a steak mid rare,  garlic mashed potatoes with butter, and whatever fresh steamed vegetables are available" he said.   He considered for a moment as well before adding. "I'll have some cake to for dessert as well" he said looking over to Michelle so happy she was enjoying herself.

"Now then,  we have some free drinks coming to us I think" he said with a grin as he led her off to the officers lounge.

OOC: wanted to wait until Kaarle was done with Fell, since that occurred before Cerise arrived there. :) now we should be just about in sync.

Once she's done with Fell, Cerise heads to her quarters. There she turns on all the lights, including her extra fixtures, to maximum, disrobes, wipes herself down to get any grime off from the days activities, and changes into her service dress uniform. Spirits a bit uplifted from the nourishment, and feeling much more presentable, Cerise turns the lights back off and steps out. She uses the ship's internal communications to contact Kaarle; "Lt Cherkovski, apparently I need to meet up with you to discuss something that occurred during Wraith's training? Are you available?"

Thirteen takes a towel and wipes the sweat from his forehead as the Marine comes over to him.

"I have been told my skills are tolerable. Do you want to spar now?

@ Kaarle - "Yes sir. Chocolate cakes for all." he say with a smile.


 @ Thirteen - The Marine laughs audibly; "Kid, if your on this ship. your skills are not tolerable. But I figure you size will help me get better at fighting smaller races we may encounter."  Gives you a more through look over. "How about we do so combat drills and work our way up into sparing."

 The drills are retinue for any trained in Commando school. but twenty minutes of this and the two of you are fully sparring. with the mandatory gloves and mouth peaces. While not trying to hurt each other you both land some pretty good blows upon each other. you duck or parry a strike and kick or punch when you think you have an opening forcing him to parry or dodge. and starting the process of setting the other up for the next barrage of blows.

  Twenty minutes into it you hear a soft clapping sound and a soft familiar voice cheering for you.
  The Marine steps up the pace forcing you two to work for even harder to get any blows in. finally he concedes. "Your amazing for someone your size and your stamina is better then any of my men." he points over to Aravae who is standing there patiently watching. "I need to get me a cheerleader." He gives a smile. "anytime you want to workout kid. Sgt. Wilks" he says as he extends his hand.  with a quick greeting as he passes Aravae, he heads to the showers.

  She giggles a little at the chefs reaction to the chocolate cake order. but she put on a small pout as she replied to Kaarle statement. "Yea we only have an hour." but she smiles as she gives his hand a quick squeeze happy to be holding it.

  @ Mirage -  His smile widens as she catches herself grabbing for her ear and then her finally relaxing. "Well I think its cute. I am sure most the men here do as well."

  Well I loved my time on the Eden. It beats being stuck inside a metal hull all the time. "But I will be honest, I do love flying over a new world and seeing it for the first time in all its glory. Before anyone set foot on it."
  While you can still see the slight flirtatious gestures as the dinner goes on. He keeps them light and non aggressive so you do not feel threaten by him. somewhere in the middle of eating your steaks. "So do you not like dancing? or is it when the proper invite is given?"

She blushes at the comment on being cute, chuckles.  "You have common ground with Mercia, then."

A wistful smile about new planets.

"Never experienced it, but it sounds..."  She searches for a word, her eyes distant a moment.  "..romantic, I suppose?"


She digs in, for a small woman she has enough appetite to take down that steak, though no telling how much she has eaten lately.

"Dancing?  I am afraid my training did not cover training or certification in such endeavor... "  She hides a smile by looking down.

"But my curiosity of culture did range to song, so I know rhythm."

In reply to Cerise (msg # 66):

@ Cerise - Before leaving his quarters he would have responded to Cerise's message.

"Hello lieutenant,  wraith squadron is on its way to the officers lounge to celebrate today's win against jokers team.   I can bring you up to speed if you would like to join us.  If not we can discuss this at your earliest convenience in the morning

Regards,

Lieutenant Cherkovski"

@ Michelle - he pulls her hand up to his lips kissing it gently... "unless I'm mistaken that's an hour for drinks with the team at 19:00, dinner with your dad is at 20:00.  Now I know my math was never that good but I think that gives us about 2 hours" he says with a smile as he thanks the cook and heads out with her.


When they arrive to the lounge it was obvious the party had already started without them. He looks for the rest of his team after showing their id's to get in.  It seemed odd on board a ship this size to have to do that but it was for their own good not to let things get out of hand by having the crew the sheets to the wind especially if working in the morning...
