((I have no objections to Jeb coming with us.
By the way, if you want to expand your character to have another skill or job on the ship so you have more to do I doubt anyone would mind.
Maybe your racing skills could translate into some piloting skills or something? Or maybe you have mechanical experience and can help repair/upgrade engines/vehicles?))
[probably more of a pilot type thing. Could you imagine Jeb trying to counsel someone and fly the thing through the thick of combat at the same time? haha]

((Do it. :v:))
["Now tell me about your childhood" he said as he was bombing the space station.]
Varn and Dwan made their way down the ramp along with the rest of the crew. The sight of the HarkArk soldiers made Varn feel uneasy. He never liked dealing with company owned soldiers, but he went along with it. Shacking hands, whenever necessary.
[QUOTE=Bathacker;47618695]"I'm Sledge!" shouted Sledge without being asked.[/QUOTE]
Vara extended her hand and noticed a "slight" crush as Sledge shook her hand very tight. She felt a shock and went with the flow. She gave a nervous smile as she tried to not scream out of pain.
"Why.. Yes, plea-se to me-et you." After that simple interaction she held her hand, rubbing it graciously.
Jeb extended his hand. "Hello, ma'am. Name's Jeb"
[QUOTE=enigmarage;47619320]Jeb extended his hand. "Hello, ma'am. Name's Jeb"[/QUOTE]
"Nicole Vara, I'm happy you've decided to join the Archius XI."
Colin coughed, straightened his glasses and approached the woman. He had introduced himself so many times it was stuck in his head and practically a reflex action. He waited for the window of opportunity as his crew said hello. Colin swayed forward, outstretched his hand towards the woman and raised his eyebrow.
"Hello there ma'am. I am Colin and it is a pleasure to meet you."
After a minute of looking of over the HarkArk mercs and there leader as they walk over to the captain and the rest of the crew. Viper did a quick scan over the one who was done talking to Jeremy and was in a conversation with Sledge.
The scan revealed the name of the soft-carbon to a "Nicole Vara". Currently employed by HarkArk and seems to have a minor hand injury.
"Hello, Ms. Vara. I'm the chief Security officer on the Archius XI." Viper said to Vara as Viper walked over to the soft-carbon before rising the right frontal arm, opening up the two forward fingers in similar way to how a terran does a handshake.
Lion greeted the HarkArk official with a quick and casual salute. "Name's Lion ma'am, Senior Officer and Weapons Technician." He extended his robotic hand.
Nicole watched Colin made his move and did what she was supposed to do. "Vara, nice to see you on Archius."
She looked at Viper and got quickly excited "A Sanghvi?! I've never seen one so close before. Your race is very interesting." She said as she shook her/his hand.
Lion caught her off guard and noticed the robot saluting to her, she chuckled and noticed this robot had some intelligence. She saluted back. "A pleasure Lion, I've never seen your kind of model before. What is it?"
Iska didn't like being the center of attention, so she casual stood behind Yanim and lit a cigarette.
Lion crossed his arms. "Classified special-forces combat & reconassaince model from the Sol system. If that doesn't interest you the fact that I used to be human will."
Dwan decides to be polite and greets the HarkArk official. "How do you do, miss? I'm Dwan Theidrum, the bartender.", he said as he extended his hand.
Yanim joined the lineup just as her superiors had finished introducing themselves. As Vara looked in her direction, Yanim spoke flatly, but not rudely, "Yanim Sidikan, maintenance technician." In truth, she felt that her job encompassed more than general maintenance, but she was too shy to embellish it.
She planned to bring it up with Jeremy at some point, but had been holding off out of concerns that a change in title might require contract renegotiation.
Viper was fairly unsettled by being the center of attention as the soft-carbon shook back excitingly with several of the mercs looking over the shoulders one another to get a good look at Viper. Some making sure to have there weapons ready as the Shanghvi are know for there trouble as the scars they have left on system are still fresh.
As soon as Vara was done, Viper made sure to take a step back away from the crowd. Keeping distance but making sure to highlight the fellow squad mates though the eyes of the suit's visor.

Well Sledge [i]loves[/i] being the center of attention so more for him! In fact, Sledge had taken to attempting to impress the other HarkArk mercs with feats of strength! Namely, he had taken to flexposing to scattered and uneasy applause. They were quite obviously awestruck.
Perplexed and angered by John's silence, Arthur furrowed his brow, and began to walk out of the medibay.
"Alright cyborg. I'm going to go ahead and assume that either your brain chip has malfunctioned and is rendering you unable to speak, or your past is a sore topic for you. Either way, you're making me late for a very important meeting. I trust you'll find your own way around the ship while I'm gone. Do not, and I repeat, DO NOT touch anything in my lab, or I promise you that you [I]will[/I] regret it. Cheerio!" Arthur made sure to firmly tell the silent man, as he stepped out of the room and hasty made the quick journey to the hangar bay.
He ran to catch up with the crew, before noticing the woman in front of them glancing at him. He stopped catching his breath, and put on a charming smile for her.
"Why hello there, my darling. My name is Dr Arthur Beasley... Though you can call me Arthur." He said warmly, extending his hand and winking at her.
Vara got to meet quite an interesting bunch but then she met Arthur. He felt, weird. While his handshake was appreciated, his wink gave her a sign of interest. She blushed in response. "Good to meet you Arthur. Now I'm sure you're aware about Harken Saw right? Either way." Vara gestured the crew to walk with her as they saw amazing equipment being handled.
"Termina Central is a hull of the finest, the size of a moon that acts as a space station for trading, services, basically HarkArk's base of operations."
"Joseph Heilburg, ship doctor and surgeon." Joseph introduced himself as he stuck out a hand.
Jeb looked around, clearly in awe of the station.
The crew along with Nicole walked around until a long passenger shuttle stopped by and went closer enough as the one of the doors opened. "Hop in, we're try to get there as fast as we can." Everyone went to the transportation, with Sledge even calling it a flying limo with thrusters.
Jeremy looked out through the cameras, seeing armored vehicles rolling out. High tech ships in place. This was basically a fortified space base.
"So, what's Harken Saw's plan for us? This Oracle, it seems to be very important if he's paying us a lot of money." Jeremy stated.
Nicole frowned and looked out across. "Harken Saw has his secrets, unfortunately even I don't know what he plans to do with it."
"Great. Why do I get the feeling Harken Saw is hiding something very shady?" Jeremy questioned towards Vara. Jeremy has his fair share of shady contractors and Harken was starting to be one of them.
"Probably because he is shady. Everything about him is shady, but interesting to say the least." Vara muttered under her breath.
Lion grunted. "As long as he's paying us."
As Viper reluctantly walk among the the HarkArk merc's. Viper took a moment to look over the massive scale of Termina Central's exterior as the full view of the void stood outside of holo fields of the station.
A long shuttle came by and picked up the crew of the Archius XI along with the mercs and Vara. As Viper climbed, a sense nervousness starting coming over as Viper's suit started to pick up the merc's intercom system. Viper looked at them within the shuttle as they started speaking though there implants
"Nice drones this guy has, must to be paranoid as hell along as being a rich motherfucker to have these killing machines. " One of the mercs said while cleaning his rilfe. "Yeah, I didn't think they even made Shangvi models. Must a custom job, damn I hope I'l get enough pay to have something like that." One said as he was looking out the window of the craft. "What a nerve this bastard has to get a tin can in the image of one of those..monsters. " The Merc said as he was looking directly at Viper.
Iska stood leaning against the side of the shuttle. And looked over the mercs. She frowned slightly and bent down to Yanim.
"You think contractor can be trusted?" she whispered to her.
Lion, who were also tapped in tl the merc intercom stepped in between the two mercs. "The difference is that this 'monster' isn't a robot and it can hear you quite well just like myself."
Lion looked at Viper. "Show them boss." He made a gesture towards his face.
Viper was surprised to see lion defending Viper, A thing that Viper has yet to see soft-carbons do for a Shangvi. Viper turned to face the larger merc with what appeals to be large mechanical arm along with a red mark on his helmet.
"The fuck?" One of the mercs said, as they started to rise up. "Goddamnit, I thought you had this channel secured Ashwood!" The Sergeant said as he got of his seat. Looking at Viper with a imposing stance.
"What in the hell, do you metal toys want? huh?" He yell at both Lion and Viper before taking step closer to Viper. "Sir...Sir I wish you no harm to you or your me- Viper tied to reply before being cut from the large brute.
"What you have a problem speaking in a natural voice, oh but sure you do, all of you shell-shits all do." Taking a moment to look at Lion "Huh, I guess tin man found a brain after all but what are you doing? So you have a mind in there or are just trying stir up shit because all you drones sure love kissing ass." One of the mercs walk up to him, trying to help the clam him down. "Sarge , Your acting way out of line! Your going to get us- "Cut it! Hawker "The Sergeant said as he pushed her aside and turned back to Viper, continuing his speech as he walk forward
"Did you looked into your uncle eyes as a pulse bast left him gasping for air after his had blood been burned away within his own body? Do you see his face and many others of the best of what humanity had to offer, very time you close your eyes? Do you know the feeling of having your arm being slowing ripped off, bit by bit? Do you always see them in your dreams and haunting you, looking at you with there soulless eyes? Before grabbing Viper's neck, the Sergeant made sure to keep eye to eye contact with Viper. "Do you monster? Do you?"
"No, I can't say I have felt zat experience of having my arm ripped off bit by bit." Joseph suddenly interrupted. "But I can say zat I have ze experience of RIPPING someone's heart out bit by bit! Would ripped it out in one piece but zat stupid implant he got prevented it so. Does zat count?"

"Also, I've seen vorst."
Lion brought out one of his plasma blades and put it a few inches from the sergeants throat.
"I wouldn't that if I were you."
He looked at Nicole. "Your men are out of line."
