Quote: Card key: tap and go! 1 use, opens 1 locked door. There was no threat to be found.
"This is interesting." Her posture had relaxed upon entering, and now her eyes were scanning the dim interior. She held a small object in her hand, "I can't say for certain or not, but this seems like it could fit the slots I've seen on the outside of some of these doors. It's worth a shot if we find an impasse again, at any rate."
"Caviap, would you like the honors of searching ahead?" Intentional or not, she'd handled the previous zombie threat well. It'd do good to continue bolstering her confidence, pushing her outside of her comfort zone a little bit at a time. She was sure the orangeblood could handle herself, for once.

Quote: 1 - You advance through the ship ... 6/10 "MVP..." Nahori repeated, more a whisper to herself than anything. Her voice was always soft, but it nearly wavered as she spoke next, "Thank you..." The appreciation was genuine. It never stopped feeling good—and kinda weird, too, but definitely more good than bad—to be complimented. It felt like they were actually taking her seriously.
Carefully stepping over the corpses, unlike her counterparts, Nahori followed and let the thought sink in. She was looking at the floor, but not because she was afraid. It was only when Sarcel addressed her that she looked up again.
"O-Oh, um, yes sir." Going first was a bit unnerving. What if something jumped out?! Still, she nodded and took the lead, keeping a few paces ahead of Sarcel and Buffel as they continued to stake out the ship.

Quote: 5 - You keep walking down the corridor. Nothing here. Buffel followed behind. The quiet was getting eery, but he wasn't too worried. He had these two badass ladies with him to kick some zombie tail, and his hand was a gun now! Hmm...Buffel spaced out momentarily as he pondered the situation. ”Hey, uh, Sarcel? Uh, Sir? I've been givin' it a good long thought and I just can't make heads or tails o' somethin' here. So like, we know these zombies or whatever are the former crew, that part makes sense. Thing is, these things are apparently on almost all o' these space wrecks, so how'd they all become zombies? Like, what happened to all of 'em at the same time to bring that about?”This was probably the most consecutive words the gunslinger had spoken in weeks. -- HP: 16/20

Quote: 3 - You advance through the ship ... 7/10 Had Buffel been military, she would've cut him off immediately at the usage of her first name. Instead she gave him a cautiously annoyed glare, but didn't say anything on the matter. He'd corrected himself and she was usually alright with letting first mistakes slide, especially with nervous teenagers.
Had Buffel been military, she also might have been more apt to answer the question or invoke any conversation, but he wasn't and she had no interest discussing potentially sensitive information with a volunteer. After all, it wasn't as if she was a recruit or even an ordinary troll in the ranks; she was an extension of the Queen herself, and she constantly reminded herself of the fact. Her actions didn't reflect only on herself. They reflected on Regina's trust put into her.
"It's a good question, Obille." She spoke quietly, "I'm afraid I don't know any specifics. Private Caviap, have you noticed anything worthwhile up ahead?"
She continued to walk through the ship's open hallways, the silence deafening, her expression still stern as she watched the darkness for moving shadows.

Quote: 2 - You find an open door. Truth be told, Nahori hadn't wondered much about the daywalkers, herself. She was more prone to worrying than wondering, and right now the real and present danger was their own ship, not the ones floating nearby.
"It is weird," she muttered, "but so many ships are up here, so maybe whatever wrecked them all..." Except she didn't finish her thought. The Lieutenant's curt tone and change of subject made her feel uncomfortable continuing. Instead she focused her attention ahead once more.
"I think... it's... ah, look, another door." She jogged cautiously ahead.

Quote: Card Key: tap and go! 1 use, opens 1 locked door. The place didn't look booby trapped and the door was wide open. With a wary look back towards her teammates, Nahori took a deep breath and went inside. This was supposed to be her time to shine, or something like that, and she assumed it would be okay to take a quick look around for anything important.
When she came back out, she had a card that looked strikingly similar to the one Sarcel found earlier.
"It's another one," she said, "At least... I think it's the same. It, um, looks like it."

Quote: 3 - You advance through the ship ... 8/10 Buffel wasn't very satisfied with that answer, but he knew better than to press it. He looked around this new corridor, expecting more shambling masses to come leaping out. There couldn't have been that few of 'em, right? Hearing nothing but the quiet of his suit and his own breathing, he guessed the other two trolls hadn't come upon anything either. Feeling more than a little useless after he'd barely made a dent in the previous scuffles, the yellowblood set about dusting off the equipment around them to see if anything might still be in working order, even if they certainly didn't look it. After pressing a few buttons and receiving no response from any of the consoles, he trudged forward to catch up with the group. His finger-gun was uncapped and at the ready. He knew he'd have to pick up the slack on his end one way or another. HP:16/20

Quote: 1 - You come across some shuffling bodies...! "Still might come in handy, hold onto it." Sarcel nodded assuredly, the tension in her body and her voice seeming to dissipate as the topic switched gears. Thankfully it seemed to be set that way, as there was a peculiar (though by this point not unfamiliar) movement near by.
"You would think such a small ship would have a small crew." The number of undead was fairly surprising given the size of the swarmer. "Get ready everyone!"

"There's six of them!" Sarcel had counted them quickly, "Caviap, Obille! You both know the drill at this point." It was good practice if nothing else. The blueblood cracked her knuckles as she waited for her subordinates to make their moves. Let their own actions guide them; she'd pick up the slack if she needed to, but confidence came with hard work and determination. It couldn't be handed out freely. It had to be earned for the self, by the self. She'd learned that the hard way.

Quote: 3 DMG taken! 1 DMG dealt! The gunslinger rushed forward. He grabbed the first one to shamble through and slammed him up against the wall, pinning it by the neck with his elbow. Pointing his empty barrel of a finger right to the creature's temple, he fired. ~ k-tchnk! ~ A clicking noise was heard, and nothing came out. ”What in the-?! C'mon now, ya danged-!” Buffel shook his hand violently, trying to get it to work. ~ k-tchnk! ~ ~ k-tchnk! ~ ~ k-tchnk! ~Too frustrated to continue, he settled for simply using his giant metal limb as a giant metal blunt weapon, punching the undead creature into submission. Upon finishing, he looked over, realizing focusing on a single shambling monster might not have been the best tactic. Anger - 1, Buffel - 0. HP: 15/20

"I-Is everything okay?!" Nahori called, her stutter momentarily returning as she knocked one of the daywalkers away in her bid to get to Buffel. It wasn't totally obvious to her at first what had happened, but as he knocked his own opponent back with his arm, she felt a jolt of surprise and relief. She was probably worrying for nothing, but Worrier might as well have been her middle name.
"I... I've got your back," she told him as she turned back to the task at hand, managing to take down a few more of them. All she wanted was to make a difference.

Quote: 9/10 advancements 3 - You advance through the ship ... Make a difference indeed.
"Stay focused!" Sarcel's voice boomed in the small close quarters of the ship. Thankfully Nahori was proving her worth in weight. Either she'd underestimated her recruit, or the daywalkers here were really really... pushover-y. She liked to believe in the lowblood though. "Obille, are you alright?" It seemed as if his arm apparatus has malfunctioned...
"We've been traversing this ship for a while, and it's not very big. I have a feeling we're almost to the control room if you're both alright to progress."

Quote: 2 - You find an open door. Dropping her hands to her side, Nahori breathed out a heavy sigh. It almost felt like the nights spent training with Sarcel were paying off after all despite how unprepared she'd felt the entire time up 'til now. She looked from Buffel to the Lieutenant, then nodded. "I'm... okay to go..."
And sure enough, just a little ways down the hall they found another door.

The corpse landed too the floor, unmoving. The Yellowblood shook his hand vigorously as small bits of the previously shambling body flew this way and that. Nahori had come running over and Buffel felt ashamed that he's pushed ahead without everyone. He looked up expecting an expression of worry across her face, but found none by the time she was upon him. "I...I've got your back," she said. He smiled at her as he got up and checked his arm. The finger chamber was only partially loaded, the bullet jammed halfway into a fire-ready position. The gunslinger knocked his arm against the wall until the bullet came free. Nahori had already mopped the floor with the zombies by the time he'd fixed it. ”Yeah, it's fine. Might be somethin' I talk to the inventor about back on Alternia though, but it shouldn't do that again.” He hoped that was reassuring enough for Sarcel. As they advanced onward into the next room, Buffel cast his suits lights across the walls of this room. It was smaller, and mostly empty. Affixed to the wall was an apparatus of some sort. Buffel looked at his arm and realized the suit seemed to match the basic interlocking pattern of it and pressed his arm in. As he removed it, the segment he'd attached it to came off with his arm, now revealed to be a small armor attachment. A familiar automated voice played aloud in his helmet. "Photon Shield equipped. Charge: 1. Charges left: 2." ”Uh, hey! Come over here an' grab one o' these shields, reckon they'll come in handy!”-- HP: 14/20 HP (Shield: 5HP)

Quote: 10/10 advancements 1 - You advance through the ship ... "Excellent find." Sarcel seemed reassured enough from the words Buffel had said to her. "We've been making quick work of the menace here, but if I can impart some advice to you both, never underestimate your enemy. Still, these should serve us well if we come into contact with any other threats." Sarcel cleared her throat. Her mouth was getting dry from all the chit-chat.
"Let's take a moment to gather our bearings and search this area."
