Post-Mission EMBARASSMENT
[[So, there's that Technica guy, only, rather publically, without his helmet on. If anyone knows the length of MarKus's hair or... that telltale bandanna, they can recognize him from behind talking to two adults.
One of them is hugging him, the other is kind of nagging/scolding him.
Eavesdropping proves they're talking about how MarKus's little adventure with the Chalice got started, and that his plan was about 3 days earlier than his parents plan of the same result: steal the Technica and bail out. But at the least, in running off like some costumed hero, suspicion was completely deterred from his parents, and they were allowed to resign freely and peacefully, in order to 'work on new projects', which... is being hauled into the Chalice as they're busy talking.
They're not as impressive as the GP-01's vernier thrusters, but, it's a step up from what MarKus didn't use before.]]
So, are you getting paid.
I'm saving the world. I didn't know that paid? But, it's not like anyone has a contract here either. It's all kinda... yanno... Do whatever. And it's a good ship to get around on an exterminate some Percolatis [[EPIC GRIN]]
[[His parents grin back, despite things.]] Well, that's good for you. You're probably better off here than running around on your own anyway.
[[Then mom chimes in]] So... who're the girl you stuck up for? That isn't like you at all.
[[MarKus feels all the embarassment on this one. Where's Shirley to bail him out when he needs it. OH WAIT...]] That would be my girlfriend.
[[Dad]] And what happened to her pants?
About that...
