“Thanks Jockram,” Jago chuckles quietly at the response, “I’ll let you know on that, meanwhile we’ll just be upstairs in orbit.”
“Thanks Tylen,” the Captain says as the Navigator and gunner check in, “ could you gear up in case of trouble, Ash, could you get up hear and start ‘preflights’ for me, we’ll be heading for orbit as soon as Shui gets back, I’ll brief you in a minuet.”
“Thanks Yasmin,” Jago responds and relaxes a little, knowing the security officer is on the case.
“Thanks Saskia,” he acknowledges the Engineer, and her comment about fuelling.
Just Shui to go and he thinks he sees her emerging from the dome. Jago, leans back in his chair contemplating how luck is to have such a crew, but a lump in the chair poking into the small of his back reminds him they are not out of the woods yet.
Jago thumbs the intercom to the passenger lounge, “ladies and gentlemen, I’m afraid that trouble with the natives has obliged me to return to orbit for a while, just as a safety precaution. We’ll be lifting of as soon as our doctor is back on board which I hope will be within the next ten minutes and once we’re up there I’ll be over to explain the situation. Sorry for any inconvenience, Jago out.”
That done, Jago leaves the bridge to Ash’s tender mercies and bustles off to find a coat and mask for his ‘walk around’.
OOC
I imagine that before any flight Jago will do a formal inspection of the outside of the ship, in this case he’ll need to make sure the covers placed over instruments are removed and ice hasn’t formed on vents or pitot tubes, he’ll hurry but won’t take short cuts, I’d say five min's at the most.
