Re: Post Mission Seven Roleplaying (Omni)
{More of Regina's Omni Adventures}
With days to pass and nothing to do, Regina eventually catchs up to Alexi.
On a far away world, in the middle of operations, with little time for groom, and the crush of operations calling to your attention, Regina was was a pretty distraction. A dangerous one, that Alexi had wisely decided needed to be kept at arms length.
This was not that world. There was plenty of time to clean up and look pretty, and... Alexi had to admit, Regina looked really good in her new uniform. Attractive and flattering that it was on the local cadets, they were stunning on Regina. She was no half developed juvenile girl. Everything looked REALLY good on her. The curve of her hips, the way the fabric bunched between her legs, the way they stretched and hugged her chest.
Alexi was red blooded and not immune to her attentions. An entire night... and day.. and night were lost with little heard from either....

Lucius was by no means a businessman... hell he wasnt even certain he wanted the title of company commander, but times were feeling pretty good at the moment. Zoey had taken to medical care on Omni and was doing well. Alexi and Raith were with him, and things were starting to gel as a unit. With Regina around, they were just a lethal lance.
He had just cut a deal to swap his (junky) reliable Javelin for one of the Power Loaders that were being phased out of use on Omni. Hell they might be old news on Omni, but they were plenty new to him.
He was still trying to wrap his head around the comprehensive technical manual when he was told that it was the abbreviated mechwarriors reference guide.
"Super.", he comments darkly.
He was seated at a desk, in an office that was assign for the mercs to use for 'business'. Which at the moment meant loitering about with a hard drink in one hand and a stoogie in the other. This entire module concept crap sounded interesting... and useful... if he could manage to get his head wrapped around it. A knocking on the door bought his attention up.
"'ello Burner.", Regina commented with a little bit of a lilt in her voice.
"Uh. Oh?", It was that tone she used when she was being evasive... when she had done something wrong and was dragging her feet about telling him about it.
"Uh~oh, what? I didnt say anything.", Regina answers wide eyed oozing innocent. Lucius was having none of that.
"You dont have to say it. You just reek trouble today.", Lucius comments waving his cigar around in one hand. Lucius blew a smoke ring and began counting to ten. If you wanted to keep your temper, it was always good to get a head start when talking with Regina.
"Oh.... well... it's about your XO.", Regina sniffs under her arm and frown. It still had that new plugsuit smell, maybe that's what Burner was smelling.
"Alexi?, Alexi is a good kid. What's the problem?"
"He's going to be out of service for a while?"
"News to me, what happened?"
"We spent some time together?"
"...and?"
"I squished his boy parts."
Lucius shook his head, "Excuse me?"
"Its nothing too serious... he's just ...", Regina looks to one side and starts to scratch at the doorframe, "in an induced coma to speed recovery for a few days... or maybe it was weeks..."
'UGH~', Lucius loved Regina like a kid sister, but she didnt need a mech to be a one woman wrecking machine.
"So... Now i'm a man short when we lance out for operations in a few days."
"nope."
"Nope? Nope what?"
"You're two pilots short. Pax made me an offer i couldnt refuse."
"You signed on with Pax without telling me? What did he promise you."
"He said he would make me a corporal and i wouldnt get bossed around.
I hate being bossed around. How do i say no to that?"
'Why that sneaky #@*$&%'
"So if I make you a sergeant you'll stay?"
"I dunno Burner... He's sort of in a bind, i said I'd help...", Regina had trouble saying no sometimes... it made keeping her hard, but also made attracting her pretty easy too.
"Listen up Reggie. You owe me. You put Alexi out of commission so you need to step up and take his place."
"I ... guess... that makes sense."
That was good enough for Lucius, "Right done deal then, you lance with the Iron swords, I'll talk to Tarkin about it.", there was no point sending her to Tarken and risk having him convince her to stay.

Done without Alexi's, Lucius, or Pax's consent, so if they object, maybe this was just a daydream Regina had... Regardless, Regina wanders around with Sgt. stripes now.
