As the girls come over, she is a bit apprehensive. As they talk, she relaxes a bit.

"Seriously, you guys are crew of a starship? Wow, come on, there is more adventure and excitement than here, for sure...what do you get paid?"

Depends on your skill set and our needs. Top jobs pay as much as $9000 a month, others pay less and trainees get about a third othat to start.

In reply to Sdian McGuire (msg # 972):

I don't thonk you ever got her name, but I created one just in case.

"Is that $3,000 a month for trainees, including accommodation?"

Yes, although accomodation is a double cabin at best and a bunk in the bunkroom otherwise. Ships are very cramped, so space is at a premium.

In reply to Sdian McGuire (msg # 974):

"Probably better than the accommodation I pay half my wages for now. Does that include food? Do I get to cramp your cabin then?"

My cabin is pretty cramped as is ... I have four lovely women in my life... no make that five. He smiles at Gulzina.
I expect the women would be very resentful, at least to start.  I have four children by two of those women and I consider the first four to be wives, the last of the five has some decisions to make and that's where you would come in, I am certainly agreeable to look into it, but understand what you are asking to join. You are attractive and smart, I am sure you can do well in any place you choose to apply yourself.

He activates his shields.

In reply to Sdian McGuire (msg # 976):

His shields? The two women?

In reply to Fate (msg # 977):

NO, just a joke, as he expects her to blow up...

In reply to Sdian McGuire (msg # 978):

The glares at both of you initially, and then just at her as you finish talking, indicate that it probably is not her you should be worried about!

"Sounds like a flying brothel to me...but it would seem that you have your hands full. Pleasant change from every dick hitting on me with drugs around here though...are there any male crew members?"

Yes, several, although at least one other is spoken for...

In reply to Sdian McGuire (msg # 980):

"That does not sound like it means much...so how many are not spoken for? Also, if you are actually willing to accept a new crew member, what would my conditions be, as opposed to the general conditions we have talked about?"

You start as a trainee, although I suspect you have skills that may adjust that up as we get to know you and what you can do.
There are double cabins, 3 are all female, one all male and one is a couple, which leaves one with a single male in it, although there is a very slight  chance one of the women and the single male  might agree to stay together. otherwise you get a cabin in the shuttle, which i inconveninet when it has to be used.

OOC- I know Will and Willow may already be using the shuttle and perhaps Duran too...  you tell me, but w should be able to put her up.

She must have some computer skills, although how useful you will have to say. we can assess what other useful skills she has beside bedroom skills. Sdian's cabin is Sdians, he willingly accepts overnight visitors, but no one lives in there with him (you made it clear the ladies all keep their cabin spot.

In reply to Sdian McGuire (msg # 982):

"Happy to accept those terms. Just will give my company notice and grab my things. When do we leave here?"

You can find a spot for her in the Shuttle. As for the reception...well, that will be seen in time!

Yes, yes... Girls will be Girls.  We do ask for more experience and background, training, birth place, travel, any background issues etc.

I note that Gulzina has become preggie despite contraception, is she aware yet? It has only been a few days... Sdian is a truly manly man, he can impregnate women by just smiling their way  ;-)

In reply to Sdian McGuire (msg # 984):

Gulzina is pretty naive in terms of family matters, so she was not using contraception properly and she is not yet aware, nor is Sdian. But Sdian did a bit more than just smile at her...but he is definitely fertile, and proving it!

Bonny is a country girl who is looking for excitement. She is an electrician by trade, with a heap of training (so she could stay in the city where the Tafe college was). She has had a LOT of male friends, and is more experienced in that department than most twice her age due to her great looks (Appearance: Attractive) and she seems to love sex for the fun of it...which gives a girl a reputation pretty quick if she stays in one place too long. She carries a small pistol, so you assume she can use it.

How usefull is an electrician to us?
I assume she also has computer skills? To what level?
I am looking to back up others ... as for her peccadillo's, I am sure she'll find some interest.
Not looking to run a Space Ship of Ill Repute, but looser moral restrictions among the crew seems acceptable to Sdian.

In reply to Sdian McGuire (msg # 986):

Electrician and electronics repair (Computers, sensors and Comms) are all useful, and you may find more. But time will tell...she is young.

So I understand you take her on board. What did you do with her access card that you copied? Where to next?

That wa slipped back into her things (coat pocket, Bra, purse, whatever is easy).
We will take her on ... the skill is obviously useul, but she will be watched until we get comfortable.
We suggest Duran may be a willing partner to her needs although she can invite anyone.

i suspect the other ladies may go to some lengths to make Sdian off limits.

In reply to Sdian McGuire (msg # 988):

Yes, you gave back the original. Question is, did you break in to the facility?

The social interactions will be what will be.

In reply to Fate (msg # 989):

No, interrupted before we could. Is it still desirable to break in? Is it even necessary?


NOTE- THIS WILL BE MSG 990 !

In reply to Sdian McGuire (msg # 990):

That is your call. I wanted to start the new thread with the new mission...so any other preparation.

Yeah, Let the crew know we are bringing a new crew member.

Take Jurelda aside and tell her to pitch her bitch, as obviously she is bent out of shape overthe new woman.
Then do the same with Gulzina if she is upset as well.

In reply to Sdian McGuire (msg # 992):

Actually, Jurelda is bent out of shape because you slept with Gulniza, as she thinks she is still a child. It is this attitude (or that she is a child) that upsets Gulzina, as she has some romantic notion, at least before Bonny, that you would be hers forevermore. But both are in favour of Bonny and Duran together...

It is next evening by the time you get back to the ship. They are keen to know if you got the bug planted, but this is replaced by surprise at the new crew member and the new plan. The extra personnel are due to be picked up at 1000 next morning from a remote location. You have just an hour to make any last minute purchases.

And not a clue as to what I might need.

In reply to Sdian McGuire (msg # 994):

Sounds like all military operations. No shopping then... move on to the pickup...
