Topic: Destiny's Flight - A Serenity RPG Subject: A big man blushes
As he apologized to Alaxis her response caught the big tough mechanic off guard.
"Steady Bullet, Wouldn't want you on one of my beds.. or... maybe.."
A serious blush broke out on his face, thoughts spinning in his head of the exact meaning of her words, a shy smile breaking through, embarrassment showing to all.The big tough mechanic was not so tough in the presence of a lady it seemed. With a last glance at Alexis, so full of questions, he quickly turned back to Wyatt.
“Wyatt, Cap’n, we have to board her, see if we can salvage the ship and her cargo"……………
"We're goin' over, Wolf. Rest easy. Alex, take us right on up like you was plannin. If that's THE Demeter, then there's a lot o' unknowns, an' I don' like unknowns. So, we all 'll be goin' over en force... 'cept Ivy. Alex, once we're in place, join us in the shuttle an' lock the controls. Make sure Ivy's got the keycode but we sure as hell ain't leaving Destiny open fer a kidnappin Pops an' Wolf, make sure the EV suits are all in the shuttle just in case we can't lock horns. Any concerns, now's the time t' speak up."
Fox was the first to question the idea "You can't be serious. This is the exact opposite of avoiding trouble."
“Dude” Fenris exclaimed “It could be the richest find of all time and just the thing to kick everything into a good place!”
Wyatt pauses and stares hard at the man. "We got an obligation at the very least. No one leaves a boat floatin' in the Black with a distress call playin' over an' over. No human being with a soul, that is."
Fox shook his head. "If that's really the Demeter, then there's no way there'd be anyone left to help. And whether it is or not, do you know what follows the Apollo-class around? The Alliance."
"I hear ya," Sung says flatly. "But we had t' come within a spit n' a throw t' even pick up on the distress call. We ain't picked up no Alliance boats in the area so that's the least of our worries.
Fenris listening to Wyatt's words to Fox had to admit there was a greater importance on the Demeter then the supposed platinum, what if there were still people alive on her.
"Now, if that's really the Demeter, then there's some possible payout associated with this humanitarian effort. An' with the Demeter havin' been missin' fer all these years, we have even more chance o' makin' that payout without trouble."
Fox barely stopped himself from snorting. "Because the 'Verse is just that kind and we're all just that lucky."
With a last glare at the pilot for all his negative waves, and a shy smile for the Doc, Fenris followed Pop’s out of the cockpit and to the EV suits.
“Pop’s you think we can be this lucky or is Fox right we are headed to board a ghost ship full of the dead?"
No matter what Fenris, though they’d be encased in EV suits, would still be taking one of his guns over with him. The big mechanic was all about safety but old habits died hard and the one habit he knew best was its better to have a gun and not need it then to need a gun and not have yet.
No matter what they would breach the Demeter and find all of her mysteries inside................................... >
