A new adven... Oh wait., Tamius Crew only.

It was the start of a new day on the Tamius, Sai had already awoken herself with an alarm. She liked the idea of being the first one up on the ship, lets her get out of the of the awkwardness of eating food in front of everyone.

She ventured down into the cargo hold after leaving her cabin just to scrumage through the food down there again. She didn't know where the stowaway was sleeping, probably in some crate. Like it really mattered to her away, she wondered though if he was still around.

With a bit of luck Sai managed to pick up one of the food packages that was just stuffed with a bunch of tubes, that was a good sign. Though it didn't tell her what was in it, but she can't complain as such, any food was better than no food at all.

With the package in her hands she wandered back up to the common room and over to the kitchen where she stored the package in one of the cabinet units. She took herself one of the tubes and began her breakfast eating.

During this time she took to it that she would head to the cock pit and sit by the ships computer for the time being. With the interest in her head, she opened up the ships computer and tried to access the logs again.

Sai thought that later during the day when everyone else is up, she might try and crack the system herself.

Sitting bleary eyed in the pilot's seat aboard the Homer, Will wondered again why he was even bothering to tag along with the ship he'd run into on Illium. Sure, he'd done a good deed by keeping the kid out of that mob's hands, but he still couldn't remember discussing or agreeing to follow them, be it through repression or a more physical means, It wasn't like he had any right to complain, though - in all honesty he hadn't had any set course or direction for after leaving Illium, or for even after leaving Earth three years ago for that matter, and the change of pace was admittedly somewhat refreshing. His only real gripe about the whole situation was that he was limited by the speed of the Tamius - while the thing was armed and would have been much sturdier than the Homer were it not for the modifications he and and his old military buddies had made before his departure from the Alliance, the Tamius was a freighter, not at all designed for speed but rather for ruggedness and reliability, while the Homer had simply been designed to get places fast. In a way he envied them for not having to constantly keep making minor repairs to their engines, but he'd put too much work and money into the Homer to truely dislike the ship, despite what he might've said about it to others. Leaning further back onto the pilot's seat and rubbing the sleep from one of his eyes, Will simply continued to wait for them to reach whatever destination the other ship's captain had in mind - he was not a morning person, and even after being awake for just over an hour he still wasn't able to think quite straight. At least it was quiet over on his ship - he was the only one aboard a ship designed for four crew members, and he could only imagine how cramped it might've been over on the Tamius.

Alexander watch as the stowaway walked past almost uncaring, then he said that he was a sentinel. Tactics, information and combat ability ran across Alexander's mind but before he could react to the stowaway was gone.

“You're More then welcome to use one of the cabins, I'm Going to get some rest anyway.”

She still had not given any direct orders this frustrated Alexander, he needed orders to fellow and then to react and adapt not to simply do but she did offer the cabins to the crew.”Very well Captain.” Alexander responded as she walked off. Alexander paused unsure of what to do next. He thought about some night watch or something similar but there was not enough people on the ship to worry about that, so he reported to the cabins on the right of the ship.

One of the cabins was darker then the rest as he entered the room switching on the light it was perfect for him, he started to unload his rucksack placing everything in neat piles, there was humming from the light above him which seemed to get louder as he was unpacking. “This will not do.” Alexander muttered with end of his bayonet he removed the light source. Guided by his eyes he lit his lantern relieving his room once more. Once he had finished his empting his rucksack he started to secure his perimeter, by first shutting the door and then like he did with his previous home laid the same traps, one near the door and one slightly further back. It was now getting late the room was prepared, with sleep on his mind he kneeled next to his bed and started removing his armour piece by piece in the same way he would always do till he was only left with his helmet and his black skin suit that protected him from strong light sources. He checked his armour now on the bed looking for any faults to be found after that he checked his rifle and again placing it next to his armour. “One last peace.” Alexander thought, removing his helmet he watched as the red eyes slowly faded away placing it on the bed but in arm's reach just in case someone was to come. “I will not appear weak... not again.” he said with determination moving one of his bigger rugs next to the bed, Alexander laid down using the now empty rucksack as a pillow, bayonet by his side he started to dream about what is to come and what is to become of it be for extinguishing the lantern with his two fingers.

As Alexander awoke sitting up straight he wondered if yesterday was all a simple dream but lighting his lantern it was clearly not. Alexander smiled as he admired his new room. “But back to the routine.” Alexander thought garbing a tin of soup and his mess tin. Lighting the small cooker Alexander placed the mess tin on top with the soup in side, as it began to cook Alexander grabbed one of the cleaner rags and started to dissemble his rifle placing the pieces on the rag. Just as he finished disassembling his rifle the food was ready. “Your behind schedule Alexander” A voice reminded him at the back of his head, Alexander removed the mess tin from the cooker and began eating it with a spoon. Alexander sat back against the bed legs out and watch the cookers flame as it danced in a most beautiful way in the dark, reminding him of the times around the fire with his farther.

Once finishing the soup he placed the mess tin next to the cooker and brought out the cleaning kit and a small rug he had and started to reassembling and cleaning his rifle one part at the time. Alexander looked at the flame as he cleaned the sight with the rag slightly lost in time, then a sound from outside caught Alexander off guard. Alexander grabbed his helmet from behind him putting it on before returning to his cleaning, thinking. “I will not look weak not again...”

Seeing as there wasn't much to do sitting around for now, it was decided that Sai would check on the others. Removing herself from the chair, she headed back down the corridor leading away from the cockpit. Sai gave herself a smile as she looked down into the ships interiors, it was probably the best home she's ever had for a long time. Not to mention it's her home, she can do what she wants in it.

Shaking away the thought for now, she turned down one of the cabin corridors. Starting with the closest door, she approached it quietly hoping not to make any unwanted noise. As slow as she approached the door, Sai moved her hand to open the door.

With the door now sliding open, if they were asleep, the noise of the door might have woken up them. To Sai's surprise though, the room wasn't as dark as it should be, there seemed to be a small lift fire in the room with the figiure of Alexander.

She took a step foward, but just then she remember what happened the last time she went into a room Alexander stayed in. She edged her foot back away from the insides of the room before looking down, however it was too dark to see anything.

She turned her gaze back up and looked towards Alexander's figure in the room. "I see you're already up, how are you settling in?" She asked.

The little fire distracted more and more as it was the only light source in the room. "What are you doing?" Sai spoke with curiousity.

Alexander was cleaning his rifle when some one entered the room but this did not concern him. The traps he set would sort out any one that is an threat but the traps did not go off. “Interesting.” Alexander thought, still engaged with the cleaning of his rifle.

“I see you're already up, how are you settling in?”

Alexander look up it was the captain. Alexander reacted immediately by standing up and coming at ease before saying. “Yes captain, I have settled in this room fine captain.” Responding in a military way, Alexander did not know of any other way to respond, this was the way his farther trained him to responded. Alexander was impressed that the captain would come and see him in his cabin to check up this showed that she cared for welfare of here crew. A unnecessary but honourable move.

“What are you doing?”

My routine Alexander thought before replying. “I was cleaning my rifle and checking for faults.” This time in a more relax when saying, then Alexander remembered that he was still in his skin suit. This was embarrassing for Alexander as it revealed his muscles a little bit to well. Alexander tried to maintain discipline but he had never being in this situation before with a woman looking on, let alone his captain. “Sorry Captain I am ill dressed.” Loosening up his stance “You see this is what I where under my armour.” Nodding to the bed. Alexander tried to think of what to say next, he was eager for orders and a reason to get his armour on. Then he thought what was there to do with his particular skills on board apart from to train and prepare for the next set for orders. “Captain what would you have me do?” Saying with curiosity then adding “On this ship?” Alexander was not very good at conversation, he had very little experience with socialising mainly because Alexander had no need to. He had being built and trained to fellow orders and that's all.

Robin was tired, quite tired indeed. The reason for that being was that he had been getting up and checking on the cockpit, flying the Tamius for a short while before retreating to his quarters. He could have just left the thing on auto-pilot but with all these new crew members on board, he felt less inclined to leaving the thing completely unattended. Robin had lost count of how many times he had entered and exited the cockpit, right now he was tossing in his bed. He hadn't been able to get to sleep since the last check.

He wasn't going to be able to doze off now, despite his state. Instead of standing and making his way to the cockpit for the nth time, he rolled over his bed and looked to the small little cabinet that stood by it. On top was his pistol, reaching out with an arm, he gripped the handle and pulled it towards his eyes. Then quite randomly, pointed it at the wall and pressed the trigger. Nothing happened.

Robin sighed, there was still a few shots in it, but something was messing with it. He suspected it might gotten damaged during the riot within the club, he had bonked a few people on the way after all. After a few minutes, the occasional sound could be heard from his quarters, it was faint but it sounded like a metal clang. It was quiet for a while until a large shot was heard followed by a...

"Ha-ha! Finally!"

Robin was grinning ear to ear as he picked up his pistol from the floor, the thought that someone on the ship might have been concerned of the noise should they have heard it had not occurred to him.

A loud noise shocked Luke awake. Disoriented for a few moments, Luke wondered just what the hell was going on. He quickly came to and got up. Luke walked to the door of his room and peeked outside.

"Ha-ha! Finally!"

Luke heard from the door near him. He sighed, "Damnit Robin" he mumbled to himself. He looked to his left to see Sai standing there, looking this way. "It's just Robin. Arsehole decided to test out his gun. Goodmorning, by the way." He told her.

Luke walked over to Sai and looked in the room, Alexander was stood up, rifle in hand. "Calm down. It was just Robin. Alexander, do you have any actual clothes? You're not going to be able to wear your armour everywere and a skin suit is not what you can call day to day wear. Hang on a moment."

Luke went back to his room, opened his rucksack and took out some of his spare clothes. He went back to Alexander and threw them to him. "Try those on. Before you ask, I bought them a few hours before the bar fight."

It was then that he noticed a small fire in the room. "Alexander, have you been cooking?" He shook his head, "Put those on and come down to the mess hall. Sai, if you could be so kind as to direct me to the food storage please?"

“I was cleaning my rifle and checking for faults.”

He was very militaristic, he even stood at attention for her. It was then she noticed the clothing he was wearing, it was really odd at first. She knew that people wore something underneth the armour, but it was like a skin like suit almost completely covering him. It was also quite revealing as well, it wasn't very often she had... No wait, this was coming out all wrong!

Infact Sai was so distracted to not catch anything Alexander had said, "I uh..." It wasn't until she heard a crackling sound which made her jump a bit. Sai's instant reaction was to reach for her pistol, a loud sound could mean so many things. Though she was eased when Luke appeared out of his room.


"Calm down. It was just Robin."

Just Robin? He fired a shot on her ship! As much of a ship this is, she won't tolerate discharge of weapons on the ship! What if it hit a vital system, like life support! There was too much risk involved and this was her ship.

Luke had vanished for a moment and reappeared with some clothes for Alexander, Sai looked confused for a second then gathered he might be offering clothes to Alexander.

"Sai, if you could be so kind as to direct me to the food storage please?"

She turned her head to face Luke and nodded to him. "Sure." With that, she took off down the corridor into the mess room, common room, what ever you want to call it. She looked to her right at the kitchen, "We can bring up some of the supplies from the cargo hold and store them here." She then looked to her left and headed towards the stairs to the cargo hold. "We keep everything else down here." She spoke as she setted down the flight of stairs.

Sai navigated through some of the stacked containers before coming across the supplement container. "This is one of the containers stored down here, though it was ration bulk purchase." Sai rubbed her hands together. "It was the only things I could afford after the ship." Sai admittively said. Though she never doubted Luke's ability given that he's a cook, he could make rations taste somewhat decent?

The thought of Robin came back to her mind, she quenched her eyes at the thought of it. "Damn it Robin." She muttered. She'll need to have a word with him about it, or better yet, with the whole crew so everyone is on equal level.

“I uh...”

This was odd how Sai responded, maybe something wrong with her voice receiver or something but she was looking at Alexander oddly, maybe she disapproved of how he was not in armour yet? Then a weapon discharge catching him off guard. Alexander turned his head to were the sound came form and immediately returned to reassemble his rifle, muttering as it took form.

“Calm Down. It was just Robin.”

“What?” Alexander thought Pilot Star just randomly discharging his weapon? But then again he was ill disciplined. Alexander stood up rifle in hand just in case it was something more.

“Alexander, do you have any actual clothes?”

Luke did not seemed concerned with the weapon discharge, this impressed Alexander as most people would panic, unless they were used to it. “No.” replied Alexander being rather blunt, actual clothes? He had always been in some suit or other.

“You're not going to be able to wear you armour everywhere.”

“But I have been trained to do so.” Alexander thought.

“And your skin suit is not what you call day to day wear.”

“It has been mine.” Alexander thought, the only time he would take it off would be to wash and to clean the suit.

“Hang on a moment.”

“Hang on to what?” Alexander thought again totally unsure what to do now, then incoming as a hail of clothes came at him with most of them landing on the bed.

“Try those on. Before you ask, I Bought them a few hours before the bar fight.”

“Clothes...” Alexander thought, he had never had clothes before because of his condition.

“Alexander, have you been cooking?”

“Yes.” Alexander replied still fascinated by how you would put them on.

“Put those on and come down to the mess hall.”

“Put them on, why?” Alexander thought, he did not not need or even want to, he was here to work with his armour and weapon. He looked back at Luke think of what to do. The come down to the mess hall was the closed thing he had to an order sense coming on the ship but Luke was not of rank. As Sai and Luke left to the mess room Alexander shut the door before returning back to the clothes, after a few minutes of thinking Alexander attempted to put on the clothes this turnout for the worse ending with socks on his hands. There was nothing wrong with the clothes they were plain and practical, it's just something that Alexander had never done before. After removing the clothes he neatly folded them in a presentable manor at the end of the bed. Alexander then started to put on something on that he new he could, his armour. He started to put on his armour in the same way and manor as he would always do locking and sealing as he went. Picking up his rifle he primed his equipment for the final test as all the parts lighted up and the shields hmm to life Alexander murmured. “Perfect.” Before powering down his equipment and moving the rifle over his shoulders holding on to the strap, he washed as the small flame died out still as beautiful as all ways and using his hands to extinguish the lantern he marched out of the room in the same routine and movement that he always would leaving the lantern near to the door.

“Now time to report to the mess hall.” Alexander thought closing the door behind him but then he thought about Pilot Star the captain will want to see him. Alexander started looking for Robin by opening the cabin door just slightly and closing them afterwards till he found Pilot Star cabin. Alexander looked in with one of his eyes saying rather coldly. “Pilot Star you are required in the mess hall.” Then adding. “Bring your weapon is well.” Before closing the cabin door with a tud. “My turn.” Alexander thought as he marched down the hall way his boots echoing as he went only stopping when he reached the boarding entrances as a point to stand guard over. Moving to one side he stood at ease rifle down at ease ready for what ever the day may bring.

Robin cringed when he saw that the blast had left a rather dark mark on the wall of his quarters, stepping over to the wall he traced the outline, the heat warming his skn as he did so though the feelng soon left as the cold attacked the mark, soon making it room temperature. He was lucky that the shot hadn't gone through the wall though surely someone was concerned but no one came running.

He shrugged it off as he holstered his weapon and made his way to his bed, he really hadn't brought much, his luggage was pretty much just him. There wasn't really much quality in the items he left behind. Things could be replaced, memories could be remembered. A sudden voice from behind caused Robin to snap around, his hand on his holster but it was only Alexander, with those darn eyes and robotic voice of his.

Required in the mess hall? Robin guessed it was about the gunshot, though why bring his weapon too? The thought of Sai confiscating his gun was not at all appealing. "Right." He said to the masked head before the guy went off to whereever. Running a hand through his hair, he sighed and exited his quarters, making his way into the mess hall and saw Luke and Sai, as well as Alexander.

"Breakfast meeting?" He asked wth a raised eyebrow.

"This is one of the containers stored down here, though it was ration bulk purchase."

"One of my cooking jobs forced me to work with supplement paste. How the hell you Quarians manage to stand it your entire life is beyond me. I was sick of it after a week. Ration packets are gourmet ingredients compared to that. Anyway, could you give me a hand, Sai?"

The two of them brought up one of the crates and placed it next to the kitchen. Luke took out a couple of the packets and opened them. "Basic, freeze dried, just add water foodstuffs. I can work with that." He mumbled to himself. He went back to his room, passing Alexander on the way out of the mess hall. "Did they fit?" He asked him.

When Luke got back to his room he opened his bag and took out one of the bottles. "Human whisky, brewed about forty years ago. Better save that for a special occasion." He took out a different bottle, a twenty year old red wine, and went back to the kitchen.

Luke washed his hands and tipped the contents of the two packs into a large bowl and poured about a quarter of the bottle in as well. He stirred the mixture till it became a dough-like substance and added some salt to it. He lit one of the stoves and placed a frying pan with some oil onto it. Luke then took a half-handful of the dough-like substance and began to flatten it into a disk shape. He placed it on a tray and made several of these disks. About nine in all.

Luke got out three plates, one for himself, Alexander and Robin. "The stowaway can make his own food." And then began to fry the disks. After about two minutes Luke flipped the disks over, and saw that the bottoms had begun to brown. The smell of wine filled the room as the disks cooked. "Sorry Sai, that smell will probably linger for the rest of the day." Eventualy Luke was satisfied with the disks and put them onto the plates. Three apice.

Alexander came into the room as Luke was sitting down. "Alexander, take a seat and eat some breakfast. Whatever it was you had was probably good enough for you, but I can't imagen it tasted any good."

"Breakfast meeting?"

The voice was Robin's. "Breakfast? Yes. Meeting? That's up to Sai. I had to be a little Ad Hoc with the ingredients but this shouldn't be too bad." And began to eat.

Sai gave a gentle laugh to Luke's speech, "Yeah sure." She said in her now giggly nature. She assisted Luke in bringing up one of the crates, it was awkward to carry but they managed none the less. They moved across the mess room towards the kitchen before placing it down. She was sure she heard Luke mumble something about the food, hopefully it wasn't that bad.

She watch Luke leave the area back towards the crew cabins, not sure as to why Sai sat herself on the kitchen counter. Infact she was so short that her feet couldn't reach the ground, not that it bothered her in the slightest.

A moment later she caught Alexander heading through the common room down to the rear end of the ship, she felt inclined to ask what he was doing. Though she reckoned she'd get some over down speech about... Maybe it was best not to think about it for now, Luke just came back. She might as well sit down with them all, Sai hopped off the counter and popped herself into one of the seats on the table, closest to the kitchen.

When she glanced over her shoulder, she could see that Luke was preparing a meal or something. Whatever he was making was interesting, she couldn't even distinguish what it was.

"Sorry Sai, that smell will probably linger for the rest of the day."

She smiled under the mask, "Don't apologise to me, I'm not the one who can smell." She lightly spoke. While it was sadly true she couldn't smell, it didn't get to her that much. Omega probably smelt bad fullstop, a good reason why she can't smell to start with.

Luke then asked Alexander to come and sit at the table, she guessed Luke was going to serve everyone.

"Breakfast meeting?"

She shot her head at Robin's direction, boy she had a bone to pick with him.

"Breakfast? Yes. Meeting? That's up to Sai. I had to be a little Ad Hoc with the ingredients but this shouldn't be too bad."

Sai stood herself from her chair and moved behind it, she turned herself to face Robin head on. After waiting for a moment, she folded her arms at him. "If you can call it a breakfast meeting." She said with her best dull tone. It wasn't that great really, she wasn't really the most threatening character in space.

"We should probably go over weapon regulations while on MY ship." Again, she tried to put on her best strict accent, if anything she sounded like one of them actors from a buget vid. She paced herself away from the chair edged herself round the table to Robin, she was ballently aiming her words at Robin. "No one at any time should discharge their weapon while on board, especially while we are in space." This time her tone was more sound, with the worry of hull breaches on a ship this small... Another thing she didn't want to think about.

She turned her head round to Luke and down to where Alexander was. "That goes for everyone." She added. Sai sighed, she felt slightly bad for bigging herself up and above the others. A Quarian owning any ship was a big thing, she didn't want things to go wrong. Sai inclined herself to sit back where she was a moment about, back at the table.

"Thank you for cooking for us Luke." She said out loud facing the table. Given time, Sai will brighten herself up. It was just the spurr of the moment.

“Did they fit?”

“Ar yes the clothes.” Thought Alexander pausing as he moved. The simple responses was yes sort of but no weakness must not be shown and shame must not be brought to his family but it is dishonourable to lie... Alexander paused before replying then saying “I had... Problems with the clothes... but they're well looked after.” Emphasizing 'clothes' as he's new found number one enemy, before marching on to his new guard point that he designated.

As Alexander was at ease a unknown smell entered his filter and up the tube commenting the filter to the helmet. As Alexander breath in he was brought to alarm with one word in his head “Gas!” Remembering his training on how it was used and what to do in this emergency, he turned around about to shout out gas till...

“Sorry Sai, that smell will probably linger for the rest of the day.”

Felling embarrassed he returned back to his post and readjusted his filter to compensate. It was only then Alexander realized what Luke was doing, acting as cook. “This gave a lot of power to him.” Alexander thought going back to what his logs said, he has the power to change the mood of the hole craw with a single meal or to kill us all from the inside out...But he has rank now and is now more valuable to the crew then Alexander would ever be.

“Alexander, take a seat and eat some breakfast. Whatever it was you had was probably good enough for you, but I can't imagen it tasted an good.”

Alexander walked up to the table to see three disk like pastrises on a plate for him. Looking at the pastrises for a moment know that he could not simply take off his helmet and show his weak skin , that saying “Thank you Cook O'Honlan.” Giving a small bow then adding. “But as you know I have all reddy eaten but I shall eat them later.” Picking up the pastrises and moving them into his bread bag at the back of his belt.

“If you can call it a breakfast meeting.”

Robin just entered but it was Sai who standard out with this new voice, it showed her inexperience but...

“We should probably go over weapon regulations while on MY ship.”

Better, this might get some discipline in to him yet.

“No one at any time should discharge their weapon while on board, especially while we are in space.”

Very good... She'll be a good captain. Then she turned her head round.

“That goes for everyone.”

This almost over joyed Alexander by her first somewhat order. Alexander reacted instantaneously by clicking his heels to gather and saying rather loudly. “Yes Captain.” She had done well in disciplining robin thought running laps, drill or even cleaning the toilets would have been what Alexander farther would have done but this will do. Alexander wondered what happned with Robin's weapon and if he ever did maintenance on it. “Pilot Robin would you like me to look at your weapon for you?”Said Alexander this was bold as your weapon should never be parted with his owner and Alexander respected this but if Robin was unable to maintain his weapon then it could be a danger not just to him but every one is well.

((OOC: Conscript, the word is "Designated" not "Desecrated". That means something else entirely.))

Ad Hoc? Robin raised an amused eyebrow at Luke but then looked over at Sai, of course the meeting choice was hers. She was the Captain. And as the Captain he was surely expecting what was the come, and sure enough, the way she walked and that pose over that chair. To be honest, she looked more cute than intimidating like that but he could tell she was trying, which was good.

Robin didn't sit down and instead mirrored Sai's actions, he wasn't trying to tease her, well maybe a little but there was another reason behind it. He wasn't all hot-air in the head ya know, he had a brain, if you could believe that. She talked and he listened, her words were directed at him and she made a smart move by covering that up and speaking aloud to everyone. Killing a few birds with one stone... Robin mentally facepalmed as he saw himself getting hit by a stone and falling onto a hanar.

Sai finished and Robin nodded curtly enough, "Yes ma'am." Was all he said but turned to look at Alexander, asking him about his weapon. Robin made a mock annoyed face at the man, "No one touches Mary but me." The pilot looked down over his chair at his meal.

"Thanks Luke," Robin said as he continued to eye the food for a moment, and then glanced at Sai, "Do you mind if I eat in the cockpit... I promise no-" Robin stopped mid sentence and frowned, glancing over his shoulder for a moment. Something seemed off, the tingly sensationf of danger nearby. He shrugged it off and looked back to Sai.

"I Promise, no stains on the chairs or the windows..."

“We should probably go over weapon regulations while on MY ship. No one at any time should discharge their weapon while on board, especially while we are in space. That goes for everyone."

"Easy. Don't own a gun. Anymore."

“Yes Captain.”

It was Alexander, Luke let out a little snort before standing up and performing an outrageous and over-exaggerated salute. "Certainly ma'am, will keep that in mind ma'am." he stated, a little louder than Alexander, before sitting back down to finish his breakfast.

"Thanks Luke,"

"It's what I do."

"Do you mind if I eat in the cockpit... I promise no-"

This caught Luke's attention, "Something wrong?" Robin seemed to shake it off, though. But Luke wasn't convinced it was nothing. "Somethings up, tell us Robin. Instincts and gut feelings aren't to be ignored. Trust me, I've relied on my instincts long enough, for example, to know where is a good place to sleep or not. I ignored them once because I was exhausted and woke up lacking a kidney." Luke sighed as he remembered that. "I got it back, don't worry about that. But it just goes to show, ignore instinct, and you will pay the price. That goes for you too, soldier boy. Discipline and order will only get you so far."

There was something odd about Robin when she made her speech, she wasn't sure if it was just him or her. He seemed to? Copy her? No, that was silly, he was just being him. It wasn't like Robin couldn't be Robin, that hot shot pilot. Or maybe? No, too much thinking!

"Yes ma'am."

Happy with that Sai then...

“Yes Captain.”

Alexander was then the next to respond to her nag, it was a sharp and snappy response. In fact she jumped a little from it, she didn't expect it to be so sudden. She easer herself down to hear Robin and Alexander converse, 'Mary' Sai thought. She tilted her head to the side, Robin named his weapon? It shouldn't be a surprised to her, mercs do that all the time. Now Sai then...

"Certainly ma'am, will keep that in mind ma'am."

That word... It stung into her head like a clock bell, she really didn't like being called Ma'am, or Miss, or in fact anything formal. It didn't feel right, it just wasn't mean't to be! "I'll let ma'am side, but from now on call me by my name or 'Captain'." She cooly let out, though it was pretty easy just to bust out. That wouldn't give a good image though, she had to keep her cool at least for now.

"Do you mind if I eat in the cockpit... I promise no-"

Sai shot her look to Robin, she was about to speak when she saw his frown. He seemed to look toward the cockpit for a moment, was something up? Are we pounded? No wait, she could hear the ship running. That was a plus, this old banger made noise when it was turned on. How could she forget that the first time?

Luke gave Robin and Alexander a speech about instinct, or some sort of human thing. Whilst she never fully understood what it really mean't, it must have been important somehow? Though she did become concerned when Luke made the assumption that something wasn't right with Robin, she felt inclined to to speak. "The ship is okay?" She slowly spoke, Sai made her own assumption due to Robin's piloting experience, well atleast as much as she knows.

She wondered what could be up, it could be a many number of things. Maybe they should all check it out? It could be something important, like a distress call or something! "How about we all head to the cock pit? Unless it's something else Robin." Sai suggested to the group. She acknowledged everyone by glancing towards them. It was only then she noticed that she was surrounded by Humans, and males, some would consider that lucky. However Sai found that, somewhat discomforting somehow.

Luke snorted, Alexander felt confused did he do anything wrong? Or did Luke disapprove? Then Luke salute in a way that Alexander had not come across in the logs, maybe a more modern way? But surely it was in respect to the captain.

“No one touches Mary but me.”

“Sensible but what's the name for?” Alexander thought then replying “Very well Pilot Star.” Giving a small bow then adding “I meant no disrespect.” Reading the expression on Robin's face.

“Do you mind if I eat in the cockpit....”

Alexander was pleased with what going on but robin stopped mid way this was odd for some one like him but he continued and as it was not Alexander place to ask a senior member of the crew what's wrong with him or how he should eat.

Then Luke's story, it was interesting it sound like the stories that Alexander's farther would tell to him about how he did that and this showing his experience at the same time.

“Instinct.”

This word stood down above all, clearly Luke had a lot of experience in well...everything. Alexander went back to what his farther said about instinct and that instinct came from experience and Alexander had no real combat experience.

“That goes for you too, soldier boy.”

Soldier boy, Alexander did not know what to make of it but it sounded degrading on some scale.

“Discipline and order will only get you so far.”

“Very true.” Alexander thought remembering how his father said it word for word.

“Thank you Cook O'Hanlan I will remember...” Alexander replied. “Remember when the time comes I will fight with honour, discipline and courage and if I am to fall, I am to fall with out fear of death, as I have done my duty to the almost of my ability.” Alexander thought lowering his helmet remembering his father teaching him this when he was young.

“How about we all head to the cock pit?”

Bring him back to the situation that saying. “Very well captain lead on.” Following soon after.

Robin looked to Luke and raised an eyebrow at him, regarding him silently as he listened, Robin knew the importance of such a thing, he didn't need a lecture. "I thought I heard something." He said simply, though to be honest he wasn't sure if it was something he had actually heard or felt. He smiled briefly when Sai spoke about being called ma'am. Either it was going to pass a whole lot more, or they'll be having a lot more breakfast meetings.

He almost sighed when everyone seemed double concerned just because he had looked over his shoulder, it was probably nothing! As much as instincts helped, they usually also threw you in the opposite direction. When Sai suggested that they all go the checkpoint, Robin made a face.

“Very well captain lead on.”

Robin sighed, that was a suggestion, not an order. A suggestion that the pilot did not like, "Fine... party in the cockpit." He muttered and took his place and walked away back up through the ship but as he got closer, he began to hear a quiet steady beep. Robin quickened his pace, he saw a flashing light, he broke into a jog and was amazed that nothing fell from his plate as he reached the cockpit, set the plate down on top of the console and flurried his fingers across the controls.

"Distress call, source: Heading 154 bearing 269... on the edge of the system, it's coming from a ship."

Robin wasn't aware if Sai had entered the room or not, it was just normal and automatic from his experience as a pilot, especially from when he was in the alliance. He looked past his shoulder to indeed see the Quarian there.

To de-stress them or to de-stress themselves he wondered, personally he didn't feel very confident in their ability to launch a rescue of some other ship, especially if they had been attacked. The aggressors could still be in the area.

There seemed to be an odd tension between the group, it may well because they are all very different. It may keep them on their toes, but not when they are on edge with each other. Sai didn't need people to be at each others necks, otherwise they'll never get to see the next day.

"I thought I heard something."

After hearing this, Sai tried to home her senses on what Robin could have heard. It proved no different to what she could already here, her receptors will only pick up what they hear. They then got onto the part where she suggested to check out the cockpit, at least that's Sai assumed considering Robin is a pilot.

"Very well captain lead on.”

However it wasn't she who led them, Robin took his place to go first. Sai didn't mind, after all Robin is the one allows them to get from A to B. Sai set off behind Robin, during the short trip she swore she heard something from Robin's mouth. She lean't herself to the side to see if Robin's mouth was moving, she was greeted with a motionless jaw. Maybe she was hearing things, until Robin decided to increase the pace.

Sai eyed the back of Robin as he set off quicker to the cockpit, it wasn't until she began to hear the auible tone that came from ahead of her that there was a reason for it. Out of interest, Sai picked up her speed to catch up to Robin. Instead he further increased his speed, they were shortly inside the cockpit with Robin already on the controls.

"Distress call, source: Heading 154 bearing 269... on the edge of the system, it's coming from a ship."

She heard as she took her place right behind Robin's chair. "Distress call?" She said in much surprisement, why would they be getting a... No that didn't matter, if it's a distress call then people are in danger! This was probably one of those times where the Captain would make a decision, she was bricking it really.

She looked to the others wondering what their opinion would be, if they didn't like it there is always the nearest airlock. Though she would have to work on how to get even one of them in the airlock without being over powered, "We should check it out, there may be people that need our help!" She said quite loudly. Sai could feel the rush pass through her, they weren't even doing anything yet!

"If we need to board, me and Alexander can search the ship for survivors." She informed the group. She then turned her head to face Luke, "Do you have a hard suit?" She asked. He may have brought something with him, she never knew.
