"Uh, guys, they're in building two, and it's kinda full of some kind of robot bugs," Etain said abruptly, bringing the rest of the group up to speed on what was going on.

Jeran nodded in greeting. "Lot of panicked people went through here. Grease stains and burn stains on their clothes. Tang of cut metal. Nothing else that I could smell. Pretty sure whatever they were running from is still at the factory."

Fei nods in response to Jeran's worrisome news.

"Before we met for the briefing this afternoon, I had started an investigation into some...unusual behavior in Assembly 1 after a conversation with Foreman Kellos. He has been reporting power fluctuation issues and parts disappearing for several weeks."

"I had diagnostics running on both issues when we were deployed to rescue Raelle. If I can access the terminal in Assembly 1, it may give us some more information. I have a feeling these are not coincidences."

Etain waved to the new arrivals. He looked distracted, but he always looked distracted, so it was hard to tell if it actually meant anything.

"Phoenix - have you found something?"

"Not really. Just listening to Elektra's running commentary. Some kind of bug or something took over the factories? I don't know. I kind of lost track of what she was saying. Too many tangents."

Etain waved to the new arrivals. He looked distracted, but he always looked distracted, so it was hard to tell if it actually meant anything.

But I did find a new pic for Etain, which I think communicates his personality better. He's not the angry one. He leaves that to Alev and Elektra.

"Do we need to go over a checklist? Was there supposed to be a checklist. I've never actually seen the checklist. I've never seen the cockpit of a shuttle before. I was shoved way at the back when we came down from the sun. Am I supposed to be doing something?"

Fei, of the Sun Soul wrote:

The young monk turns at the sound of the muffled laughter, and just in time to see the verbal rebuke by Elektra.

"A valid question. And I apologize if I gave any offense, as I get the feeling I may have just inadvertently done so," he replies to Elektra with a deep bow.

Looking back over to Mithros, he asks "Perhaps you could show us to simulators you mentioned, Mithros? It sounds like we will be spending much of our training time there, so it would be best if we know where to go." (^-^)

"Uhh, you bet. Follow me." He leads the troupe to an area where there are a couple of small rooms with larger spherical rooms next to them. In side the spheres, are cockpit-sized boxes on hydraulics.

"There's only a couple of these, but these two are the main simulators. They will whip you about to get almost the full impression of the reaction time and G's you can pull in a mech." He motions to a few sit in arcade-like set ups "These were the Mark I simulators. These will get you up to speed on the instruments and most of the basics."

"I bet you'll be the first one to throw up," Etain said, elbowing Alev in the ribs.

Elektra glared at both of them.

"Yep. A whole bunch of them. I think you've met Fei and Ghalen before. And those three yahoos are Alev, Etain, and Elektra. Not sure where Ardiente is. He should be here by now," he added with a faint frown.

::Speak of the efreeti and they shall appear.:: comes Ardiente's psychic voice from a fair ways away. He can been seen swooping into the hangar at speed before moving to land next to Mithos, taking human shape as he does. "Sorry Boss, busy schedule to keep up with." he says sincerely, not quite managing to supress the smile tugging at the corner of his mouth.

"Hey, what are you three doing here?!" he shouts across the hangar to his former guardsmates.

"Training! Same as you! I knew you weren't listening at lunch! I told you, didn't I, Alev. I told you he wasn't listening. Totally checked out daydreaming about his girlfriend," he taunted.

"Having some trouble adjusting?" she asked sympathetically.

"Yeah. This place is strange."

"Can't particularly argue with that. Which aspect of the strange is bothering you the most? Personally I find the ambient temperature a bit chilly for comfort."

"It doesn't bug me too much. The temperature, at least. I'm just... Not terribly used to the crowds. Or the building. Or the... Anything. It makes me nervous."

"I'm pretty sure it makes all of us nervous. The trick is to act like it doesn't. And to do it well enough to fool yourself," he says with a wink.

Lucas sits down close to her, with Icarus hopping off his shoulder hopping over to her other side, trilling quietly "are you ok? How has your day been so far"

"Fine."

she says, and resumes poking her food.

"It's totally okay to tell the lot of us to sod off if you'd rather eat alone or just want to meet people you don't already know," he says with a charming smile, trying to coax the sullen firebird girl into some form of interaction.

Lucas Svarog wrote:

Lucas bows to his partners as they finish their practice "you did well, I enjoyed myself," he smiles "so then, I do believe lunch is next?"

"Yeah, at least according to this schedule," Alev said, checking the crumpled printout he had pulled out of his pocket. "Well, let's go then....hey, should we wait for Ardiente? He seems kinda caught up talking to Mas...er, I mean Professor del Sol. Dangit, it's gonna take a while to get used to new titles."

"Pfft. He wants to suck up to the teacher, let him. I'm hungry. Let's go eat," Etain said breezily.

"I haven't heard any that were any good, even the best so far would be fir more for a tavern on a slow night"

he then gets a wicked gleam in his eyes as he decides to make a joke, he makes a great show of looking at his ass as he stops talking "hmm yeah not bad, I'm forced to agree, but even still it has nothing on mine"

"Oh, please. I obviously have the best ass here," he jokes.
