"Such duties can be tended to by personnel who are not needed." Yuga came walking down the crew corridor and stopped in the doorway behind Neasha and looked over the people inside. Seeing as both Bucky and Janos was in there she took out her compass to use the transmitter. "Jackson and Celofan, go make yourselves acquainted with Mr Mop and Mrs Bucket." Her look shifted from Owen and Janos to Valkyrie and Bucky, "Engineers, I've received a notification of a fuel leak in Perditus meditation room. Go over there to analyze the damage and repair it... and send him to the bridge."
((Isn't Bucky's last name Fermi? Not Jackson?))
((Jackson is Owen's last name))
((I know, but you typed your post as if she was looking at Bucky and Jànos when Yuga said "Jackson and Celofan"))
[QUOTE=Viper123_SWE;50394115]Maddox picked up the duffel bag and put it on the table. "I don't know. I need to scan it first."[/QUOTE] [i]Johannes nods[/i][b] "Ok."[/b]
[QUOTE] "Engineers, I've received a notification of a fuel leak in Perditus meditation room. Go over there to analyze the damage and repair it... and send him to the bridge."[/QUOTE] "On it." said Valkyrie, before motioning for Bucky to follow her. She stood, her cutlass dropping and hanging on her hip as she got up, and proceeded out past Yuga and Neasha. [B]....[/B] [Gonna go ahead and finish up the training with Taylor, Alex, Amy, and Amelia.] Taylor and Alex observed as Amelia practiced what they had taught her, starting off slow and picking up the pace till she had perfected her punches, blocks, and dodges. "Good. Very good. You should be able to defend yourself well enough now. Throw in some kicks sometimes when you can as well, and watch out for enemy kicks. Your legs are much stronger than your arms, and are VERY useful in a fight." said Taylor, nodding a few times. She looked about, then gathered her stuff from nearby. "We'll practice more later, and go into more advanced techniques. I'll have a chat with the Captain about melee and CQC training for the rest of the crew that want it. Rather not have you all die because you couldn't defend yourself against an enemy wielding a sword or something." she said, before giving them a thumbs up. "Really nice work, Amelia." she said finally with a smile, before heading out of the training room and into the Armory.
Hestia was just finishing up rewriting the carrier's more delicate systems, much of it was either severely obsolete or heavily corrupted. Through it's fairly tedious, Hestia waited the moment that she could flex her medical skills once more and not deal with primitive systems. After just removing the last remaining areas of scrap code, her contractors confirmed what she has been waiting to hear all tour. She imminently packs up, garbing one lesser drones to oversee the finalization of her work while she leaves towards the exterior. Eager to met her new employers, mostly due to the fact that these individuals were the truly adventurous kind. Her waited for all of her short existence to venture into the lawless stars outside of the safe but somewhat dull system of Elysium. In an few moments, the doorway open and Hestia walked out to see her new employers waiting with the lead Argos element. [QUOTE]"Spaska... I am Yanim Terika, and this is Rask Vor'Pangn. What do you call yourself?"[/QUOTE] Ahh, kanads she thought. She briefly wondered if they held the same views of A.Is that the rest of their kid did. "I I'm Hestia Zeta-9." Hestia said while put her arms behind her back in an relaxed matter before Yanim. "it's a pleasure to meet you both." She said kindly towards the two.
Bucky shrugs and regards Neasha with a somewhat-annoyed look. "You try maintaining an entire ship all by yourself. Even for an android that's a big task, not much time left to sweep up dust bunnies. I'll see about ordering up some cleaning bots." When Yuga shows up, Bucky stands and pops her neck. "Alrighty captain. Valkyrie and I will get that patched up. Any idea what caused the leak? Overpressure, or something puncture the line?" --------------------------------------------------------------- Hariim mulls over the information that Johanne supplies him with. "New computer should be easy, they just keep getting smaller and more powerful all the time. But I'm still worried about compatibility; lots changed in the last century and a half. I might be able to patch something together for you. Just no guarantees."
János sighed. He had just avoided Val's traps and was catching up to her when the game died. But seeing Bucky just shrug it off, he realized that the most important part was that they all had fun. At least he didn't have to buy Bucky a dress. He got up and regarded Yuga. "Considering I have no one to watch at the Brig, I'll be delighted to meet the married cleaning tools," he said with a hint of sarcasm by the end of it. He got himself a mop and bucket and began cleaning the hallway.
Jag looked over the destroyed wall closely, knowing full well that the crew will have already sent out someone to insect and repair it. After an few seconds of fanatic movements, Jag decided to simply let knelled down. Struggling it's shoulders to fix it's cloak and held itself still. Jag then slowly breathed in and then out through it's neck. It did this for several moments, taking it's fleeing time to filler out it's air supply and relax it's mind. The bowing Obelisk had once more push back it's darker memories to corners of it's weary mind. At least for now.
The noises that Frosty heard were louder than the THUD he accidentally made when he landed a bit too hard. It snapped him out of deep thought, and gave him the idea the crew was under attack. He grabbed his LAW-1 and moved in slowly on the source of the noises.
She squints at Bucky, all though not in any malicious way, simply narrowing her usually tired looking eyes. "I'm a navigator and a merchant, not an engineer. I simply got a notification on the computer that a leak had occured... And that Mr Perditus was in the room at that time." She turned to walk back to the bridge and cast a final glance at Bucky and Val, "Had I known the reason for this I would have informed you. Now chop chop." Yuha began walking back to the bridge, closing the compass and nimbly spinning it around before sailing it into a pocket on her coat. ((Gonna hit the sack, got morning shift tomorrow. At least it's friday and I finally got the entrance exams out of the way today. 40 points max and 10 for acceptance. 1 like 1 prayer for this dunce.))
[i]Johannes keys the commlink to Hariim[/i][b] "Compatibility shouldn't be an issue. The suit was designed to be completely modular with all the standard connector types. It's mostly pins, and I have extra connectors if you need to rewire something to use the old standard. Maddox has my armor now, he can get you the schematics for it after he's scanned it. Sorry I don't have them, Vermaak didn't give them to me and I have no idea what happened to that PMC."[/b]
[QUOTE=Viper123_SWE;50384907]Maddox nodded and walked up to a large metal locker. He tapped in a keycode and opened it up, revealing several shelves containig crates and boxes of varying sizes. He picked a smaller military box, took it out and locked the storage locker. He put the box on the equipment table next to Johannes's weapons and popped it open revealing three shiny, razor-sharp, vibroblades. "Vibroblades, made out of a special material which mixes alloys with super-heavy metals these knives have been forged in fires that'll make even you sweat. Extremely sharp and durable these knives could outlive you if you take care of them. These ones in particular have been modified by yours truly to penetrate lighter armors." Maddox picked one of the knives and pulled it out of its sheath, holding the blade he extended his hand, motioning for Johannes to inspect the knife itself. "These type of blades aren't from your time and these three blades in particular are based on the field knives used by the Sol Marines stationed on Mars. It's a true survivor's tool."[/QUOTE] "YOU CALL THAT A KNIFE??" Dio laughed. "This is a knife." Dio took out a long slender dagger that seemed to glow an eerily grey. "Nano-ceramic, never needs sharpening and always keeps its point. Best of all, it's galvanized with a titanium alloy so it looks just as good as it penetrates. A full set cost ten thousand credits."
[i]Johannes stares at Dio as one would a small autistic child showing off their favorite toy with well meaning over-enthusiasm, absentmindedly fiddling with one of his new knives in its sheath.[/i][b] "Seems like a lot of money for a boot knife. But I guess it's nice enough"[/b]

"Uhhhh. No. I'm talking software, drivers, stuff like that. I don't even think we still use the same programming languages as 150 years ago. I can hack my way into just about any system, but updating your gear is going to be a bit of a project. I'll do my best for you, but integrating a brand new computer with your [I]ancient[/I] hardware might not be easy. Just how integrated are you with your suit? What's the deal with it?" Hariim replies. Already, he's using his implants to search the nets for any useful information and relevant technical data. [Roll applicable?] --------------------------------------------------------- Bucky gathers up her tools and gets a fresh jumpsuit and facemask on, and then makes her way into the compartment with the fuel leak to begin her dirty work. She spots Jag in there and shakes her head. "Captain wants you on the bridge dude. What did you do to my fuel lines by the way? Why the frak didja break 'em?"
Frosty creaked open Jag's cabin door and saw the demolished wall. On seeing Jag inside, he asked: "What happened here? Were you attacked?"
[i]Johannes squints at Dio. He keys his comm to speak to Hariim.[/i][b] "Hold on a second, Hariim. I'm busy being [i]incredibly offended.[/i]"[/b]
[QUOTE]"Hold on a second, Hariim. I'm busy being [I]incredibly offended.[/I]"[/QUOTE] Taylor spoke up, pausing next to them as she walked by. "Keep it civil, or you'll be spending the rest of the night calming down in the brig. Both of you." she said, looking between Johannes and Dio. "I doubt the captain will stand for crew infighting, and I certainly won't." [B]....[/B] Valkyrie arrived shortly after Bucky, dressed in a jumpsuit of her own and a mask. She eyed Frosty as she maneuvered by him, then stepped into Jags room. She looked the damage over for a few moments, before looking over at Jag. "Damn, Jag, what'd the wall do to you?"
Maddox gestured between Johannes and Dio. "Johannes, meet Dio. Dio, this is Johannes." He said with a unamused voice.
[QUOTE=Infab;50399707]Taylor spoke up, pausing next to them as she walked by. "Keep it civil, or you'll be spending the rest of the night calming down in the brig. Both of you." she said, looking between Johannes and Dio. "I doubt the captain will stand for crew infighting, and I certainly won't." [/QUOTE] [b]"I didn't do or say anything to this knife throwing carnie why are you getting on my case?"[/b][i] Johannes complains while still looking at Dio. He glances over to see who spoke and pales even further, if that's even possible, when he sees its Taylor.[/i][b] "Shit uh I mean, sorry ma'am. Won't happen again. Yes thank you Maddox we've been acquainted."[/b]
[QUOTE]"Shit uh I mean, sorry ma'am. Won't happen again."[/QUOTE] "Good...and if I was on your case, you'd know it." she said, with a hint of a smirk. "Carry on. Dio, might want to practice throwing your knives. Heard you didn't perform too well at the end of that last op." she said, turning to Dio before walking off.
[i]Johannes turns to Dio and grins wickedly at him at Taylor's comment.[/i][b] "If you're so sure of your abilities how about we spar? After all, it sounds like you need some practice."[/b] [editline]27th May 2016[/editline] ((I'm bored and listening to Hurdy-Gurdy music someone fite me))
"How about a knife throwing contest then?" Dio grinned as he held up a bundle of knives. [T]https://i.ytimg.com/vi/02H7iTkEqQ4/maxresdefault.jpg[/T] [I]picture is just for illustration purpose and any similarities to actual persons, either alive,dead,fictional and real, is purely coincidental.[/I]
[i]Johannes scoffs.[/i][b] "Knife throwing? That's civilian shit. How about we actually spar like men, not play glorified darts?"[/b]
"I'm sorry but the miss clearly said practice throwing knifes, not practice waltz dancing with you."
[b]"Listen here you little shit. I didn't come here to play hide the pickle with a carnie."[/b] [editline]27th May 2016[/editline] ((Ok it's 1:30am here and since you're not gonna spar me like a man imma go to bed.))
"There was an accident." The knelling Jag repilyed to the two who came to investigate the breach. The Sanghvi then slowly rose up the floor and turn around to face the both Fosty and valkyrie. The recent chack upon its face had gotten bigger since the last time it saw them.
"Oh my..." Frosty held his hand up as if he was measuring the crack on Jag's face. "You should most definitely see Abraxas about that."
