Re: [006] Rescue on Ruie!
Sigrun spends the week in jump in a very easy going state of mind. She is constantly active either training with Chandra or using the space of the cargo hold for physical training. However, as the week draws to a close she spends more time brooding over the countdown clock on the bridge and starts wearing her autosnub again.
Whilst in jump space she offers to help Edwardo recover data from the transponder. She contributes a working knowledge of how transponders can be tampered with or deactivated and a basic but by no means expert knowledge of the practicalities of doing so. (OOC: Streetwise 1, Electronics 0).
Whilst doing so she makes conversation by discussing trade in the Marches “I am no broker but if the politics of the Frontier and the DMZ beyond it create many opportunities for trade”. She grins wolfishly “These markets are most definitely “grey” but with a ship this size there is plenty of money to be made. Of course, you’d need a local guide”.

Re: [006] Rescue on Ruie!
During the week in jump, Zaki works on cleaning the crew cabins, and directing any repairs the crew is able to make, such as replacing the bars with regular doors. She keeps tabs on the occupied low berths, and checks the empty ones for readiness. Also, she inventories all of the medical supplies, and establishes a locker for medical supplies apart from the first aid lockers located throughout the ship.Keven wrote:Carlos rests easily under her, gently holding her in place, smiling, as he drifts off to sleep himself.
Zaki spends much of her free time with Carlos, and she seems to favor her right hip more than usual for the first few mornings. It doesn't seem to affect the smile and glow she has when her cabin mate is around, though.

Three days into jump, Zaki gingerly sits down across from Sigrun in the crew lounge after lunch. "I need to take some stress off my hip," she explains with a rueful smile as she nurses a mug of coffee.

Re: [006] Rescue on Ruie!
Other than walking around with a goofy drakh-eating grin, Carlos spends the week keeping an occaisonal eye on the jump indicator, making sure the blue dot is centered. He also takes an inventory of tools in Engineering and of the ship's locker to see what all is still left in it.joertexas wrote:During the week in jump, Zaki works on cleaning the crew cabins, and directing any repairs the crew is able to make, such as replacing the bars with regular doors.

Re: [006] Rescue on Ruie!
Sigrun smiles resignedly “I do like Mr Petamore but I think perhaps he’s too polite or too careful to do anything about it while we’re on board. I’m not really helping either - I have some history”.
Sigrun gets a refill of coffee and begins with a sigh “My family were in vacuum mining in the DMZ. Living in the astrohabs I wasn’t a dutiful daughter. I learned that I was a warrior and fell in with a belter gang. I made the gang my own and called myself Hel – the Queen of the Underworld. I also got involved with an arrogantly handsome rogue”. She smiles fondly “Steinar and I complimented each other completely. We had one rule - we never harmed our own". Her smile fades "So, we hit the Imperium – every time. In retaliation the Imperial Navy destroyed the atstrohabs. Not just because they harboured a few pirates and smugglers. It was mostly about who we were”.
“The result was inevitable. We all volunteered for the newly raised Auxiliary Raiding Squadrons. We were equipped with reconditioned Navy ships and trained by advisors from our Out World allies. When we went operational our advisors picked the targets. Their Intel was good – every time".
"Everything then became a catalogue of rage and blood. Steinar and I were together but – not. I was now leading boarding actions and ground ops while he was orbital. My advisor gave me a limitless supply of combat drug – I became Ulfhednar. I put on Hel’s mask again but this time the mask was wearing me. While I lost track of my combat kills Steinar was now killing in cold blood. He had been changed – we both had”.
“On Silver my auto injector failed. By that stage I was taking combat drug to try to control my berserker nature - if that even makes sense. I knew I was straight because I could remember fighting a PDF trooper. He tried to bayonet me and I killed him with my axe”.
Then her voice becomes toneless and cold “My crew captured a field hospital on the base. The raid commander came over in person and he and I disagreed as to how we should prosecute that asset - so he knifed me in the back. He wanted to make the kill last and my vacc suit self sealed around his blade. I got a hand to my pistol and ended it. Steinar and the PDF trooper – some of the few people I can actually remember killing back then. I still don't really feel anything and that scares me”.
“I got out when I finally realised I was tired of being used”. She smiles cryptically “I do plan to go home and it is possible to be both an exile and a patriot but, for now, I’m a mercenary and there’s work enough in the Marches”.

When Sigrun finishes, Zaki sets her cup down, removes her holo display, and mops at her eyes with a napkin. "I was in the Imperial Army," she says as she sits back, "and my medical unit received wounded several times after mercenary actions. The soldiers would tell us of their experiences, and it always amazed me how people, who were all supposedly Imperials, could treat each other so badly."
Zaki picks up her cup and sits back in her chair. "Now that you can choose your own way, do you still want to be a mercenary?" She waves her hand. "Oh, I understand that your skills materially contributed to this mission's success, but there really is more to life than violence." Her face tightens for a moment, and then she relaxes slightly, her violet eyes searching Sigrun's eyes.

She looks up and sees Zaki’s tears “Oh, Zaki! No, not for me … “

Re: [006] Rescue on Ruie!
Sigrun will pragmatically point out that a return trip to Daibei is way beyond the capacity of the “new” trader. (It is in fact beyond the majority of vessels in the Marches requiring a J5 vessel to cross the Great Rift).
She comments “The trader’s ideal for making money locally but she’ll need an overhaul, maybe a weapons upgrade and an entire Ship’s Locker”.
Zaki will note that Sigrun clearly enjoys her company and, in the security of deep space, seems able to relax enough to let her “warrior persona” slip and embrace her “feminine side”. While not therapy per se it seems to be good for her to unwind.

Zaki sits down and consults her holodisplay, sorting through the Imperial maps in the ship's database.
