Re: 4: Torpol Recruitment

BB just gave a shrug at Zhouth.

"I am not the person to talk to about that kind of logistics. A hit the rack wherever and whenever. If you are concerned about the boys and the girls put Taliesa in my room and have Donio and Collyn shack up. Frankly if you can't behave with a roommate then you're not going to last long on a ship like this anyway."

Collyn grinned, it could be interesting, rooming with a woman. No big deal though, but it would be interesting.

Re: 4: Torpol Recruitment

One of Zhouth's arms described a wide circle to encompass the entirety of the Harrier. "I'm not concerned about it. I'm concerned that others will be concerned about it!" The trepidatious reaction swiftly transitioned to a lopsided grin, accompanied by an exaggerated shrug. "But if you're willing to be the one they get concerned to then I don't have to worry about it, and I suppose it doesn't matter as much on a ship like this?"

And with that he brought his comm up and calmly tapped a few things into it. "Okay then. Collyn Ramburton and BB Nova, same stateroom, and we'll put the other two new ones together next to yours."

After they got to their stateroom, Collyn said "Which is mine, the empty bunk? I'll stay on my side and won't peak if you promise the same. I know if I peaked you'd kill me."

Re: 4: Torpol Recruitment

BB just rolled her eyes.

"Hate to break any fantasies you got but I don't prance around naked all day long.""

She pointed at the right side of the room that was all neat and unlived in. The left side was just as neat but there were boots positioned near the bunk and a maintenance kit resting on what passed for a desk and workspace.

Re: 4: Torpol Recruitment

After the Captain, Varca, the Vargr and the rest leave for Torpol, Collyn waits expectantly for BB to tell them what to do. He was looking forward to getting out of this system and back into space. He would jump through hoops for her if he had too.

He expected they'd go to the cargo hold, big enough to put them through their paces. BB was interesting, he'd wait to get to know her before making an informed opinion.

Re: 4: Torpol Recruitment

BB had rearranged various cargo containers and other equipment into an obstacle course. It was roughly circular in shape with cargo containers forming walls creating a "closed" track. Various bits of equipment had been put on the track to form low walls to climb over and in other places netting had ben strung that would require one to crawl underneath.

BB was standing on top of a cargo stack in the center of the course holding an assault shotgun and a giant grin on her face. From that position she would have a superior vantage point over the entire track.

"Alright, here's the situation. You're going to run laps and I'm going to shoot at you with beanbag rounds. Consider this part of your audition to see just how well you can handle yourselves under fire. Heavy fire."

She pops the drum mag, checks the rounds, and then slaps it into place.

"Alright, you're starting...now!"

She raises the shotgun up and looks down the sights towards the cluster of new recruits...

Re: 4: Torpol Recruitment

Rayjay doesn't need someone to tell him twice to get to running, especially when they have a shotgun leveled at him. So at the very least he'll be the first out the gate, even if he might wind up at the back of the pack shortly. "I don't tink tis be planned, but it be a merry time all te same, Heh-hahahaha!" He said running and laughing like the madman he was.

OOC: Just in case you need a roll Sprinting 6, lol.

Re: 4: Torpol Recruitment

Donio blanches at the sight of the gun. He wasn't military and wasn't used to any of this.

"Are you crazy? What the fu..."

<BAM>

"<wheeeeze>"

Donio's remaining words are cut off as BB fires off a beanbag round directly into Donio's chest knocking the air from them. As Collyn and Rayjay take off at a sprintg, with varying degrees of success, Donio is left taking up the rear sucking wind as he tries to recover.

Re: 4: Torpol Recruitment

"WHAT WAS THAT? I COULDN'T HEAR YOU OVER SOUND OF THE SHIT BEING BLASTED OUT OF YOU!"

BB lets out a laugh and cocks the shotgun. It was an automatic and such a gesture was purely for effect but Donio looked like he was about to cry as he tried to move his legs faster.

The first obstacle they encountered was a stack of food crates piled up in the middle of the track. It wouldn't be too hard to climb over but anyone doing so would be a sitting duck presenting a nice unmoving target for BB to blast them...

OOC: It's up to you if you want to roll or just RP this out. I'm just having fun with this so feel free to improvise as well!

OOC - Taliesa Dieros? You forgot one.

Collyn ran, knowing he would be working on the bridge but sad at the same time. This was fun! A bit painful, but fun!

BB shot him in the ass when he was going over the food crates, stung like hell!

Re: 4: Torpol Recruitment

While sprinting might not have been his forte, climbing certainly seemed to be as the old man used his momentum to run partially up the cases before hoisting himself up over the ledge before Miss BB could utilize such a satisfying target as an old navy salt for target practice. "Reminds me of basic, Heh-hahahahah!" The old madman continued to chuckle merrily as they ran the course, which mostly appeared to be an excuse for BB to abuse her new crew mates. But as they say in the Navy, hazing builds character!

OOC: Well we have stats and a roller for a reason, and I find going with the rolls helps keep Rayjay humble, but not this time lol Climb 11.

Re: 4: Torpol Recruitment

Donio was once again in the back although catching up fast on Rayjay until the old man cleared the wall right quick.

BB sighted and fired a round at Donio's ass as he was climbing but the young man twisted right as he heard the shot and the beanbag bounced off the crate instead.

Re: 4: Torpol Recruitment

"Good! Good! Now it's time for the bonus round!"

With sudden horrifying sound the shotgun began spraying out beanbags as BB switched it to full auto. Meanwhile the three were faced with the nets to craw under but at least those provided some form of cover against the spray of beanbags.

Re: 4: Torpol Recruitment

OOC: Sprint 4, Obstacles 7

Unfortunately for Rayjay his luck wouldn't hold out forever, so as he threw himself to the ground he banged his knee hard on the decking as the cargo netting proved to be only slightly effective as cover. "Ahh me knee! Ahh me back!" Before slowly but surely scrambling his way under the netting, catching quite a few projectiles and earning quite a few bruises for his trouble.

Sprint 9, Obstacles 14

For an older man, Collyn is quite nimble his speed is the question. He gets nailed once or twice.

Re: 4: Torpol Recruitment

The hatch to the cargo bay swings open and Taliesa stands there watching the antics of the other new recruits.

"The one thing the Marines taught me was never get into a situation that you can't get out of faster than you got into it," she quipped to BB at her glare. "Aaron was giving me flying lessons."

"Besides, this isn't my idea of a good time. Or even a 'fun' time."

Re: 4: Torpol Recruitment

Collyn gets to the end of the obstacle course, winning by a few feet and with the bruises to prove that he went through! He looked at BB with a big dumb grin and gave her a thumbs up as he puffed for air!

Re: 4: Torpol Recruitment

With the end of the obstacle course in sight Rayjay hopped and hobbled in turn, coming in second after Collyn before finally giving his bruised knee a well earned massage along with the new bruises on his back. "Not a bad start to te day heh-hahaha!" He said with a deep hearty laugh as he stretched and massaged a few more aches and pains away.

Re: 4: Torpol Recruitment

Donio proves much more adept at the netting. He quickly learned to roll violently to the side when he heard the beanbags start to fire, crossing the finish line without receiving any more bruises.

Re: 4: Torpol Recruitment

When Taliesa scoffs at the training course BB gives a scowl and chambers another beanbag sending it soaring towards Taliesa waiting by the door. At that distance the shot goes wide smacking the plating next to her shins.

"Nobody said anything about 'fun'. This is part of your evaluation to figure out if any of you are going to be more dangerous to the enemy or one another."
