Alright folks, here we are, and we've got a load of heavy machinery to load into cargo. If any strong, strapping, burly men or womenfolk are listening, feel free to volunteer. As for everybody else, we need the ship restocked and the engines checked over, and we only got a couple of days to do it. See that it gets done, you hear?

I can carry it.

[in_the_latin]

Not all of it, I don't think.

[windsofdaytime]

Is this another thing about my age?

Well, then, part of it.

[in_the_latin]

It's not your age so much as I don't want to see you pulling the same number on our clients' possessions that you do on our ship. Just make sure you got somebody workin' with you.

The dents in the control panel and Yousuke's black eye were because I was chasing the monster, the hole in the deck was because I was chasing the useless stowaway, and the infirmary was because I was putting out the fire.

I can live with that.

[in_the_latin]

Look, all I'm asking you is to watch what you do and try not to break anything. That's easy enough for most folk to manage.

[windsofdaytime]

Hm.

[in_the_latin]

Do you understand what I'm getting at? I need a yes or a no, Kaoru.

[windsofdaytime]

Fine. I won't break anything.

[in_the_latin]

That's all I needed to hear.

[windsofdaytime]

I see.
