He followed her, raising an eyebrow.
"Now, I haven' gone and made you cross now, have I?" Xeen said, taking Erica's wrist in his hand, his face showing a rare look of concern.

Erica shook her head, "No, love, I'm not cross. You're pushing for what you think is best. I'll let it rest."

Laurel slipped the ring onto her finger. "Thank you, Auntie," she said quietly.

Das Steube ArynChris Das Steube "In honesty? All of them. We do what the money shows, and right now, soltari's looking for an army. If he needs us to hit a Kore supply point, we hit a Kore supply point. If he needs us to ferry people from point a to b, we're a taxi. If he needs us to play rear support for a fleet, then that's us. You name your fee, and we'll go to the ships now." "Done." He said, reaching into his denim jacket, rustling around for a wallet. "And give me a moment, I'll have your cash, ((I'm lazy, and bad at math. What's a tenth of five grand?))

Ghost in his drunken stupor half recognizes the name Soltari as its thrown around by Lori and Sean talking. "Soltari sounds familiar something from my time I dunno maybe I'll have to ask around later when I'm done drinkin yeah yeah" He shoots back a shot falling back to the ground passed out and slipping down through the floor.

Xeen smiled, squeezing her hand.
"We will make it through this, Erica. When the dust clears on this unhappy matter, you, Ora and myself will all be together." He leaned foreward, planting a gentle kiss on her lips.

Sean shook his head.
"You'll have a quarters. Where we go, you'll be flying and there's always work. You'll have a room on the ship, and live on it until you decide to leave my employ. If you leave in the middle of a year, you get what you earned, and not the full mill."

Hattie sighed softly and finished her drink before getting up from her seat. She stretched a bit and looked at Durendal. "Well, sir, it's been real but I'm going back to my ship." She flipped some credits onto the Bar and gave him a salute before skipping out the door. And I do mean that she actually skipped.
Sigil followed behind, not skipping.

"As one happy little maniacal and power-hungry family, love? Wouldn't that make a lovely sitcom." She smiled despite, and returned the soft kiss. "You always made such pretty promises, Xeen."

Eulalia Danae "As one happy little maniacal and power-hungry family, love? Wouldn't that make a lovely sitcom." She smiled despite, and returned the soft kiss. "You always made such pretty promises, Xeen." "And I always keep them. I promised I would find Ora. I did. I promised I would make it back to you, and although it took me five hundred years, I did." He replied, resting his forehead against her's, holding both of her hands, a smile forming across his face, "I love you, Erica Soltari, and I love my daughter. We will be, as you said, 'A happy little maniacal and power hungry family'. I promise."

Erica chuckled, "This is true, my apologies, love. I will give you your chance." She gently moved her hands back out from his, and gave the side of his cheek a gentle pat. "Though you are my husband, it would be best if we not make a scene," She said moving away from him and back out of the building.
She glanced back at Laurel, "You are welcome. That ring will also get you in to see me if necessary, so keep it close and handle it well."

Xeen drew away as well, his soft smile and look of affection were istantly replaced by a more imposing, serious mask, as he nodded slowly. "Of course. We would not want others to think us soft. Then we would have to torture them."

Sean nodded, and motioned for her to follow him. They entered a huge landing cradle, and nestled in the middle was a large ship, appearing to be a heavily modified cargo ship. It was something of a large trangle, the engine banks filling the rear quarter of the ship, the bridge sitting low on the front, massive cargo doors and hangar openings on the side and bottom. "The Sunspear. She isn't as fancy as some, but definitely better than most."

"Not a situation quite that severe, love, it's just a bit rude to be so open in public."
