Zaki shakes her head.

I'm going to fast forward through the week in jump just as quickly as I can. You might want to decide on some sort of structure, rather than just being a collection of eight individuals.
Zaki will check all of the available medical supplies and equipment, and consult the available databases about Ruie's medical establishment in the area they will be landing and working. She also exercises as best she can with small free weights and yoga to begin regaining her strength and mobility. In real terms, she's still only two months or so into her rehabilitation, and, without the quick heal meds, it will take a while for her to completely heal.

Did Chandra sign up to do engineering on the ship, or is he just part of the solution team? Just trying to understand how he sees the situation

Chandra will take the week to get to know the rest of the gang. He hopes to understand who to hide behind in a firefight and who else has technical skills.

He will also slowly open up about his service should anyone ask, but he isn't a braggart. Those who get to know him will learn that he learned his technical skills in application, not having even finished Primary School.

Sigrun uses the gym - a lot. She will happily train alongside anyone but it seems what she really needs is someone to train against. She is fiercely competitive.

Her roomie John Lee notices she is clearly accustomed both to multi gender barracking and to ship board life and certainly enjoys the living space on the yacht.

She will seek out Joe and talk shop applying herself to developing a common series of moves and signals between them for recon work. She suggests they practice them by moving tactically through the ship (which will annoy or amuse everyone else depending on their level of tolerance). (OOC: It appears she has Recon skill).

Sigrun briefs Zaki on the Medical drugs which she hands over.

(OOC: They are 1KCr worth with effect measured by cost and require medic skill to use. As per CES p.71 price ranges up from 5cr to the most expensive drugs which cost 1d6 x 1000cr. So these are, if not the very best, at least the good stuff!)

She chats with Chandra between bouts of training. Although she knows little about engineering it appears they share a knowledge of ship weapon systems.

"So," Zaki says as she and Sigrun sit at one of the lounge tables. "What's a girl like you doing in a place like this with a bag of medical drugs?" She grins. "I was dumped out here, got picked up by a hot guy, and took the first job I could find."

OOG: What meds are they, and I'll add them to my inventory.

Joe Whistler - he starts going by Whistler more, with another Joe aboard - also has a fierce competitive edge. He has trouble keeping up with Sigrun in straight weight/resistance work, but has the edge in unarmed training and stamina. To his credit, he doesn't try and shift the competition to where he holds the edge... but he does start to show a temper when he's not holding his own.

Whistler is a little shocked to discover he's forgotten some of the infantry hand signals and more of the standard tactics since moving up the ranks; he's inclined to blame the coldsleep process. But he still has the manuals, and refreshes himself and Sigrun at the same time, working through the ship's corridors in as many configurations as they can invent.

Wearing a robe between pool and gym Sigrun smiles and, relaxing with Zaki, suddenly seems much more feminine. Almost as if, just for a little while, she manages to put off an alter ego.

She sighs, comes to a decision and commits. “There are a string of planets a sub sector away where some of the traditions of old Terra are still revered. They have a traditional book for girls to teach them the duties of hearth and home. A young girl reacted so badly to it that for shame her family moved away to live as miners. She had the sight so it shouldn’t have happened - but it did. Things do. She fell in with a rough crowd and so she took it and made it hers. A war came so, of course, they fought. They fought well!” A wild grin of fierce pride snaps the "macho warrior" behaviour back about her and she bangs the table for emphasis and continues “Sometimes against technology so advanced it seemed like magic from the sagas! Then the war stopped and the warriors went home – those that could. My homeworld is now occupied by invaders. My tale is not special and no doubt like many who are the flotsam of war”.

“But I have kept a little back. We have met but not been formally introduced - I am from Isenfang now called Margesi. I am Kapitensleutnant* Sigrun Volsung, Third Auxiliary Raiding Squadron, Sacnoth Fleet, Sword Worlds Navy. A year ago I was your enemy but now I’m an involuntary Imperial Citizen and mercenary who got paid in factory grade pharmaceuticals for her last job. It might seem odd to you but in District 268 those are hard currency”.

“No doubt a few may wish to continue the war right now. If that is the case then they should make sure to bring their best! If that is not the case then I propose an alliance. Our mercenary band needs a leader - Carlos and I would vote for you”.


(OOC: *Lieutenant Commander (Rank 3) although her outfit sounds somewhat “irregular” in military terms).

Sigrun trains hard and full throttle. They will both need to see Zaki as a result of training accidents. Oddly the only time she ever called a halt was when she let her guard down and he punched her on the jaw. For a second it seemed she was going to go all out but then she stopped, took a few moments to bottle it up and then carried on training. Harder.

Sigrun always shifts the competition to her advantage. On occasion she also shamelessly cheats and laughs while she does it. Whistler first discovered this when, racing neck and neck down the main corridor, she shoved him sideways into a stateroom.

Sigrun’s signals* are for ship’s troops rather than light infantry so they will need to borrow from each other. Sigrun clearly has ground combat experience but specialises in shipboard fighting.

(OOC: *It might not be his memory! There’s another reason for her fieldcraft being “non standard Imperial” … ;) )

Zaki listens quietly as Sigrun tells her story. She looks startled when Sigrun mentions Carlos' name, though. "I'm from several sectors trailward in the Imperium. I can't really say exactly where; I was involved in an operation that went very bad." She takes a drink and blinks away a tear. "I was in a shot down aircar, and I'm allergic to many of the quick heal meds. So, I'm having to heal the traditional way." She falls silent for a moment. "I'm a trauma nurse, although I was more of an administrator than a caregiver at the last. I don't know how that qualifies me to lead this group. I will take the role if you all decide I should, though."

After years in small Scout ships, the double cabin of a yacht is a luxury to John Lee. He is a considerate and polite cabin mate. He isn't shy, and doesn't bat an eyelash or comment on any skin his cabin mate might show. It's still shipboard living, and he has learned that their are boundaries you don't cross, especially while in Jump.

He does take time to enjoy the benefits of traveling on a yacht. He partaken of a much better menu than IISS rations, but not to excess. He is in the lounge drinking whiskey every night, but he is never drunk. He uses the gym, but mostly for cardio work. He does have a set workout that focuses on his arms and hands. Strength, but flexibility as well.

If asked, he is from the Marches. A really boring section of a really boring planet. Which is why he joined the IISS on his 18th birthday. Spent most of his time in Survey before the war. Didn't see much action in the war. If a Scout ship saw action, it failed in its primary mission of scouting.

After two days of enjoying the yachting life, he'll find Carlos and suggest "conducting an inventory" of the ships locker.

If Chandra can practice either Vacc Suit or Zero-G Combat in the gym while in jump space, he would like to work on those.

Failing that, his next choice would be to work closely with Pedro and learn Electronics or Gravitics.

Sigrun is glad her instincts were right about the scout. She will join him in the lounge for a “nightcap” – mead usually. Since he is a scout from the Marches her Sword World origins will probably be something of an open secret as far as he is concerned. Nevertheless she trusts him with the information.

No to the engineering on this ship. He's hired to find and recover Lord William. Now once that is completed, the party of PC's is going to need an Engineer for any ship they might get, so in the long run, Chandra is here as an Engineer, but that's not part of the current brief.
Chandra will take the week to get to know the rest of the gang. He hopes to understand who to hide behind in a firefight and who else has technical skills.

He will also slowly open up about his service should anyone ask, but he isn't a braggart. Those who get to know him will learn that he learned his technical skills in application, not having even finished Primary School.

Sigrun replies to Zaki “We need to ensure Lady Jane gets sound advice - preferably from a woman trained in warfare. Carlos would surely vote for you if you asked him? I’ve seen you two together! A man should always take his woman’s advice if she gives it at the hearth”.

Then in a tone softer and more sensitive than she’s ever used before Sigrun says quietly “You will endure and heal because you are strong and can not be broken”.

Carlos pretty much spends the week questioning Charlie about everything he can remember, trying to dry him out, and worrying about Zaki, helping her when she needs it.

Yes, he DOES mix with the others to learn their strengths and weaknesses, and feeling them out about his idea to go home someday.

Zaki colors at the mention of Carlos. "Yes, I suppose he would. We haven't been... together; well, we only met a week ago." she smiles crookedly. "I can't explain it, but I am so comfortable, and comforted, with him."

The blonde covers her mouth with one hand while a tear leaks from the inside corner of her left eye. "Thank you," she says in a voice that's not quite steady. "Oh," she tilts her head, and removes the holo display over her right eye. "Crying with this on is contraindicated." She takes a napkin and wipes at the nearly transparent material.

"So," she says after taking a moment to compose herself. "Should we call a meeting?"

Since he is a scout from the Marches her Sword World origins will probably be something of an open secret as far as he is concerned. Nevertheless she trusts him with the information.
OOC NAILED IT!!! :D

John Lee swirls his glass gently, watching the whiskey and the ice swirl, "No. I'm not a ship pilot. I'm air/raft pilot. I've dodged more ground fire than anyone has a right to."
He grins, "Ever done evasive flying in a forest? Flying around trees at high speed instead of over them. Man, that was a rush."
Carlos chuckles. "I never liked flying weed-whacker. Solid drakh tends to really khest the boat. So they never picked you for flight school, eh? I don't mind ground ops, but give me space any] day."
