Oh, hey, welcome back.

York

[inmylight_comdr]

Thanks. [A short, careful pause.] Am I really that bad at driving?

Kat

Anything that can knock you out for more than ten minutes is castle interference in my book.

...Wouldn't hurt to run a few more sims, though. Especially if you were more used to running turret or shotgun on your last ops.

[inmylight_comdr]

So the castle did this. I shouldn't be surprised. Is there any reason why, or is it just for its entertainment like everything else?

True. Maybe I'll stick around here for a little while longer.

I've been watching you since you were knocked out. It didn't seem safe to leave you alone with things as they are.

[Watching the behavior from Kat in the journal.] Are you sure you're feeling all right?

[She glances sharply a him, feeling that pang of guilt again.] You didn't have to do that. This place is secure enough.

[She pauses a moment before ansewring, taking a breath and silently assessing herself. She'd been so eager to get moving again she hadn't stopped to think about injuries. It doesn't even occur to her there's anything odd about her earlier behavior.] A little sore, slight headache. Nothing serious. Should probably eat something.

[dontpatr0nizeme]

And I also wanted to talk to you about something. Specifically, the fact that you need to take better care of yourself. You went a week without sleeping when we talking before the simulation...

Kat, I meant that you're acting strange. You aren't usually that easily distracted...

[inmylight_comdr]

I'm used to rough conditions, Washington. This is nothing new.

[She frowns at him, and hten glances down at her journal and sees the disjunct start to a journal entry and subsequent math and doodles. Softly, starting to worry herself a little.] I guess ... I was more effected by it than I thought.

[Guess who's actually been reading about things like tanks thanks to having to be a strategist? This gal.]

Those large land-based war machines, right? That'd be quite an ambitious project.

[inmylight_comdr]

Yes, that's them. Heh, I just finished an ambitious project, figured the best thing to do would be start another.

aww yiss

[tomatoandbasil]

Was it that flying one you were speaking of? You sure do keep busy; though I suppose anything along these lines would be very useful to have in a fight, if what I read of their capabilities is correct. It's far greater than anything we had at home.

[inmylight_comdr]

This is it, and this is nowhere near busy compared to what I deal with at home. Needed something to take my mind how much free time I have hear.

It's 26th century machinery, I doubt many worlds have anything really similar.

[variare]

I have an even better idea! We should go get Charlie!

[inmylight_comdr]

Charlie? Who's Charlie?

[variare]

Charlie... It's a tank a few of us found out along the way to Eldritch! There was a spot where some sort of power core was supposed to be. If only we could find a way to get it back here, we could replace it.

[ jr. was so attached he named it, of course. don't judge him ]

[inmylight_comdr]

I remember hearing about that, now.

[She's quiet for a moment, thinking.] Well, we could always dissassemble it for easier transport to the barrier with pack animals and carts, and then have the Falcon fly it back here in installments.
