Waldo walks into the bar with a lit cigarette hanging from his mouth. He says to the bartender "A bottle of tequila please."
"Sure." Ahaz reaches under the counter and grabs a bottle of tequila. He hands it to Waldo. "Here you go." He turns to look at Amelia. "Like the hot chocolate?"
Alex looked at his drink and calmly said "Didn't mean to intrude. I'll let you talk." He looked around the bar and noticed Amelia talking to the man in respirator and she was looking a bit woozy. "Uh oh." He looked at his watch and made a mental note. "That has to be a new record."
Yuga looked at Owen for a brief moment but instead of answering he stood still with a confused look on his face. She shook her head slightly and turned off the holotable. Walking past Owen she sent away another echo to him, "When you have finished comprehending the aspects of telepathy we can discuss your profession.". Yuga left the bridge and headed to the bar to get some refreshments. Upon entering she was slightly surprised to find that a sizable portion of the crew were already here. But alas, most of them were humans so social locales were sure to be frequently occupied. She walked up to the counter and echoed the The bartender. "Barkeep, on hot cup of chak tea" she requested with a calm tone.
"Wuh," she looks at her drink, already after only a few sips she's tipsy turvey, "How... ugh... how do you know?" her eyes start to droop. She starts to feel worried, she's assuming that she's already making a bad first impression with her new colleague. [quote]He turns to look at Amelia. "Like the hot chocolate?"[/quote] She slowly turns to the bartender, "Didju, *buuurp*, did you... *sigh* do something with my... my... my drink?"
Ahaz prepares some tea, "Girl, I put in some extra ingredients. That's how my momma made hot chocolate for me."
While there were a multiple of reasons Abraxas knew there was alcohol in the chocolate he feels it was necessary to keep it simple. He leaned forward and saw through her eyes "You're drunk." He answered bluntly
[QUOTE=Svinnik;49742787]"Sure." Ahaz reaches under the counter and grabs a bottle of tequila. He hands it to Waldo. "Here you go."[/QUOTE] "Thanks," Waldo responds. He then proceedings to down the entire bottle rather quickly and stumbles back towards his room, bottle in hand.
Ahaz calls to Waldo, "Come back, sit down. I don't know your name and you just took a full bottle of my best tequila."
[QUOTE]"Ah, I'm the 7th of 12th and 9th....Or as you soft-carbon have taken to calling. Jag."[/QUOTE] "Nice to meet you, Jag." Taylor replied, with a smile. She looks him over. "Sooo...what are you, exactly? Sorry if that sounds rude or anything. I've just been living in a literal Hell, and just recently started to get out and about."
[B]New Player Character Stats:[/B] Ahaz Willpower (100HP instead of 50, immune to enemy CH crit rolls) Taverner (Can identify NPCs who are liable to being persuaded) HP: 100 ATK: 1.0 DEF: 1.0 Bucky Durability (DEF Tech base value 1.5 instead of 1.0) Multitasking (Can initiate up to three noncombat CH rolls at the same time) HP: 50 ATK: 1.0 DEF: 1.5 --- The bridge was an oblong room with numerous stations arranged in a horseshoe shape. The captain's chair was in the center, made mostly of black leather and containing very few controls. However, an elaborate, hand-made device was positioned under chair with a prominent dataport jutting out at ankle-level. Whoever had installed it had cut a hole into the floor and hardwired said device into the ship's intranet. Currently, the seat was empty, as Rask was standing at the front of the bridge and leaning on a targeting computer, quietly speaking with Neasha. As Owen walked in, they paused and glanced in his direction. Neasha beckoned him over and so the new pilot joined them. She stood up from the pilot's seat, another padded leather chair, but one surrounded by an array of switches, dials, and readouts. A flight stick was the centerpiece of the arrangement, currently disabled as the ship was on the ground. "Are you ready?" she asked him.
[quote]Ahaz prepares some tea, "Girl, I put in some extra ingredients. That's how my momma made hot chocolate for me."[/quote] "I... I didn't ask for... spiked hot chocolate... did... did your mom really... put liquoooor... in your drink as a kid?" she turns around back to the other doctor. [quote]He leaned forward and saw through her eyes "You're drunk." He answered bluntly[/quote] Amelia sighs in shame, "Aw man... I... I'm sorry this is how we first... uh... met, Mr. Physician." Amelia gets back on her feet, barely able to stand by herself.
Alex looked at Ahaz and shook his head disapprovingly. He noticed Yuga standing and waiting for her order. "And you are?"
Ahaz beamed. "Yes she did. Made me the man I am today. The tea's done by the way for whoever ordered that."
[quote]Ahaz beamed. "Yes she did. Made me the man I am today. The tea's done by the way for whoever ordered that."[/quote] Amelia groans whilst leaning on the wall, "How... did... where did you grown up?" after ending her sentence, she belches a quick little burp.
Abraxas folded his arms and turned to the Bartender at hand. He took out a few credits for both of them and placed it on the counter, staring the the man and turned to the Genki. "You want treatment for that? Do you?" He asked her.
"I'm covering for her order. Even if it's not what she wanted." He glared at Ahaz
"Treatment?" she burps again, "Whua... what kind of... of treatment?"
"Speakeasy Remedy, Malmar's Potions and Medicine provides many cures." He answered stoically, tapping his foot.
Yuga took the cup from Ahaz, slowly lifting it up to her face to absorb it's content. She put the cup down and turned to Alex. "I'm Yuga of house Shuur and I have been hired as your navigator. And you are the dangerous chef, I believe" it echoed in his mind.
"Well, why not give it a-a-a-a-a shot?" her eyebrows lower, saddened that she has to leave this impression of a ditzy girl who will he be working around the ship with.
Ahaz looks Alex in the eyes. "It's exactly what she wanted with a little extra."
"Come Human." He spat out watching the girl move on her own pace. Though if she fell while doing so Abrax would have to carry her. He dreaded that thought.
"I can try..." she waddles slowly. Tredding behind Abrax.
[QUOTE]"Nice to meet you, Jag." Taylor replied, with a smile. She looks him over. "Sooo...what are you, exactly? Sorry if that sounds rude or anything. I've just been living in a literal Hell for a while, and just recently started to get out and about."[/QUOTE] "To be specific..I'm an mixture of countless minerals into what is commonly described as an network of silicon based crystals inhabiting the large obsidian structure that stands before you." Jag explain towards her. "Or an Sanghvi as you soft-carbons have taken to calling us.", Jag said before noticing the Ayr entering the bar, glaring over her for an spit-moment before turning attention back to Taylor. "Sorry, I...Got distracted by something. So where do you hail from if you don't mind myself asking."
[QUOTE]I'm Yuga of house Shuur and I have been hired as your navigator. And you are the dangerous chef, I believe[/QUOTE] "Oh, talking with the mind. Should have seen this one coming. Yeah, I'm the chef. As far as being dangerous, Rask didn't really tell the truth. I'm not that-" [QUOTE]It's exactly what she wanted with a little extra.[/QUOTE] Alex frowned "Excuse me for a moment." He focused on Ahaz "You do that to her or anyone on this ship again, you'r gonna need an extra eye. Got me?"
[QUOTE]"Sorry, I...Got distracted by something. So where do you hail from if you don't mind myself asking."[/QUOTE] "Pyri-II. Its a small Human mining colony between Terra and Auros. Everyone lives underground because the surface is unfit for human life. Extremely high temperatures, as well as toxic air. So basically, I was born in a hole in the ground." she says with a smile, before drinking a bit more of her drink.
Abraxas migrated to the hallway while seeing Amelia attempting to walk, gesturing her to move by her own and was closer to their workplaces.
Ahaz looks at Alex. "Calm the fuck down man."
Amelia wabbles down the hallway, giggling randomly every now and then, whilst trying to stay with Abraxas. A sense of guilt goes through her mind, making him do all of this for her. She's used to handling things herself, but she obviously can't help herself in this condition.
