Ice snorted, shrugging. "We've still got time." She replied simply as she watched Io and Cern. Her little girl was growing up so fast... "You hungry? I suffenly have the urge for a cheeseburger."
Io nodded, hauling him off towards the woods. She had seen a nice looking pond on the way back from Sei's.

She watched Cern walk away with Io, then turned to Ice. "Yeah, a burger sounds great. And maybe an icecream soda." And Cern just went, just like that. Bah.

Shi watched the ship descend for a few moments more, looked at Nika with some uncertainty and began to descend back down the stone.
She knew she could have glided down, but that was tiring, and depending on what this was, she wanted to have some strength left. She had already wasted her teleportation power today. Although by the time they got to camp at a brisk pace, she should be able to summon it again.
Who would be here now?
*I'm going back.* she said. *I don't recognize the ship. Coming?*
It felt so much easier to be business-like.

((Sorry it took so long Chae... sweatdrop *had a busy busy weekend*
Short reply, 'cause I haven't read everything else yet.))
Nika was silent for awhile, thinking to himself. She seemed upset, even if she didn't show it... and when she got up to leave, he didn't want to slide down the run-off anymore.
He sighed and followed her, 'I don't know who it could be. Were we expecting any supplies?'

((no problem Gee))
*I don't know.* She answered, dropping gently the last few feet and waiting for him to descend. *At least now we have a reason to come back.* she teased half-heartedly.

Nika climbed down the side of the run-off and stepped down beside Shiva.
His eyes crinkled into a smile, 'Besides the fact that we're soaking yet.'

She chuckled. A*As I said,a little water never hurt anyone. It's the chill after and the threat of pneumonia that need to be worried about.*
Wringing out her hair, she flipped it back smartly, listening to it smack against her skin. *Definitely wet.* she re-affirmed.

Cin looks up and grins, " Sure we could use some help, we have most the foundation down but need to get the siding for the walls and such next. I am Cinderfae, but most everyone calls me Cin. This here is Kasai." Cin gestures to Kasai as she says this last part.
Kasai's mask upturns in a smile and he waves at Trivii. Hey and then Cin said we could catch some of those horse things that see sees running around here sometimes.
Cin laughs slightly, Kasai says hello and that we are goign to see if the horse looking creatures running around on the planet can be caught and used as pack creatures. But first the school, I am waiting for the foundation to finish drying but have some school stuff to look over, want to help? I need to make sure that what I have picked out is compatiable for everyone - since I am from a different star system." Cin starts walking toward her house, "I will grab us some lemonade and the papers."
Kasai wanders to the edge of the forest as his chosen talks to the other woman and peers at a small mammel on the floor of the forest. Grinning he tries to grab it. But it darts off.

Laughing at the pair she shakes her head... and moves to join them, "My name is Trivii... I won't tell you the mouthful its short for..." Looking at Kasai she tilts her head, some of the light glinting in her blue locks turning them a shade of silver. "I wish Saniya were with me now.... my ward warndered off to explore, its always easier to get introductions all over with at once...."
She looks back at Cinder... "I'm afraid I have no idea what a 'horse creature' would look like... or how good they would be as pack animals..." gesturing vaguely to her ears, "I'm from another star system as well. And I'm more than happy to help actually. I was horribly ill for the longest time after ariving here, but I've adapted, and now all I want is to be outside..." She moves closer so not to shout as the other woman retrieved the lemonaide and papers...
"On Sitara.... my homeworld, we educate our own children. I don't know much about schools, the only truly formal education I had was my Chatelaine training... But I'll help where I can."
((Hope you could follow that.. and FYI if Cin has done much traveling Sitara is a very wealthy slaving planet... not known for a Cat-kin populace. But she may have heard of it.))

Cin grabs the lemonade from the cooler and the papers off of the table, then she walks back outside of the house a couple of glasses gripped in her fingertips.
"Can't say that I have heard of it. I am from the Ross Sector, Sypos VI. I have a feeling I am a long way from Republic and Empire space right now. There is a war going on in the galaxy I am from. According to my ships log I slept for over a 100 years. So I think I am pretty far from home. As for the horse things - you can see them running along the plains, I could take and show you some day." Cin lays the pitcher and glasses down on a picnic table outside the house and then lays down the papers. "I still need to figure out if those logs are right, Mycroft was in charge but doesn't worry about things like the travel logs clock and since I took a hit, that wiped out my neutron drive it might have screwed up other things as well." Cin sighs slightly and hopes she isn't boring the girl. "Anyways here is the school stuff and if you want call your ward over - I would like Kasai to meet some of the other masques."
Kasai sits down on the ground and peers into the forest, where did that little creature go he wonders.

Trivii smiles and pours the lemonade for them both, listening carefully to what Cinder had to say of her own experiences.. "I'de like to see the horses, if just so I'm not left in the dark about the creatures..." It was only polite, she felt compelled to offer her skills, "I could play with your ships computer, if its programed in any language that I have the least bit of understanding in, I might be able to at least figure out the margin of error for you. I'm a scientist and very patient... though all I can promise is that I'll try."
Taking a swallow of Lemonade she began reading the school stuff. "This appears pretty complete... to me, at least." She smiles at Cin... "Your not the only one who wants her ward meeting others, though, Sani is a little on the timid side... I'll try to get her to come take a look at this... maybe she'll see something that I'm missing..." Thinking generally at Sani, *Sweety... do you think you can come back to camp, and help me with something? Don't worry, I'm all done cleaning...*
************
Sani blinks at the water... thinking to herself... I think the grub drowned... then catching her mothers querry, she glanced at Zahar and Galilee... getting the impression that though welcoming they would wrather be alone... 'Yes, I think I can come back to town.'
************
Trivii smiles and looks at Cin, taking a swallow of the lemonade, "She says she'll come."

Cin smiles at Trivii, "Glad to hear it, the only spot that is missing really is history. But I was thinking we could write up a history of this planet and the colonists as we go. I have already started teaching Kasai some things, he seems very adapt with his computer skills." Cin smiles and takes off her wrist comm, "Speaking of computers if you are offering to help that would be awesome - it is only a little thing but the log is important. But I have to warn you if you are going to be working on it, the person that can help you...isn't quite a person." Cin taps a button on the comm.
I see how it is talking to her about your problems, not to me! I think you still blame me for all of this! It isn't my fault you were sleeping and I didn't get my required maintance. Plus, I was trying to keep your Cryo working and keep control of the crabs...
Cin presses the button again, "That was Mycroft, I had to fix his programming when I woke up, he is my ships AI. I think the hit to the neutron drive rattled him a bit too. He has been given classification as a living lifeform but I think he still has hang ups - such as being flawless since he is a computer." Cin shrugs, "I have a base for him that makes him into a hologram it could make working with him easier. I am good at building and programming but having help would be wonderful. I noticed my dialect seems a little off from the others but everyone here is speaking what I consider Galactic common. Which means you should be able to read what my ships says.
Kasai sighs, he was getting a little bored. Pulling a lighter from his pocket he lights it and pulls the flame into his hand. Well his guardian talks he plays with the small fire moving it from one finger to the next.
Cin looks up and sees Kasai, sighing slightly she calls to him, "Honey if you must do that please get away from the dried leaves."

Sani turns to Zahar... 'Zahar... Galilee... my Guardian wants me home... do you mind?' She looks at them not expecting any objection as she offers her pole to one of them.

Trivii smiles, "Teaching them history as its made, seems fitting..." She blinked as conversation veered back to Cin's ship. Blinking at the AI's voice she was just a little floored.... "Crabs?" Still soaking up what Cin was saying, or trying to. "Hologram... that would probably be more efficient... as for reading what your ship says... I might be a little out of practice with reading... Your Galactic Common... so I may be slow at first. But I'm just glad to have something to occupy myself with."
Looking over at Kasai's activities... "You let him play like that?"
************
Saniya smiles rising and giving little more that a curtsey of farewell to the pair, relucktantly started home from the pond. 'I'm on my way mom.'
************
Blinking Trivii smiled... "Sani's on her way."
