The Chief whips around sharply, reflexively falling into a ready-stance with his rifle at hand. It almost seems to have appeared there, he moved so quick.

Stacy. Something's going on, he's instantly keyed up and wary. The Spartan's eyes rake down the dossier in a matter of seconds.

"Looks like we have orders," he says grimly.

Worf is right next to the Chief, half-crouched with his phaser in one hand.

"It expects us to preform tasks for it?"

"Oh, fantastic," Dean says loudly, trying to be heard over the alarm. "Because following orders from a giant breathing ship is exactly how I wanted to start my day."

"This is new," the Chief tells Worf, giving him a quick sidelong glance.

Chris clears his throat a little, before asking, weakly-

"Stacy, um, I have a question, what's the biosphere like? Are people going to have to worry about diseases? If the sun's a red dwarf, that would seem like native life'd have had a very long time to evolve..." It's already struck him that something bizarre is going on on the ship, or Geoff would have died of about a thousand different modern-day household plagues by now...

He looks around at the others, particularly the folks picked to go on the mission, with a 'good question right???' expression.

||Six escape pods crashlanded on the planet's surface. Damage to the ships has rendered them unable to engage in automated recovery processes. The crew will split into teams and manually activate recovery processes. If the ships are functional, they will fly back to me of their own volition. If not, they will auto-destruct to prevent their technology from falling in enemy hands. After recovery processes are activated, crew is to return back to the deployment pod to return to the ship proper.||

"And what if I say 'no'?" Cale asked. Being trapped on this flying stomach was one thing and, so far, he had kept his mouth shut about it--when compared to most people--but having the very thing that abducted him expecting him to perform tasks for her just because she said so was completely different.

"Says who?" he counters. He's being defiant. Like a pain in the ass teenager. Or maybe he's just trying to show off.

||For the mission, tracking devices, to track the locations of the escape pods, will be provided. Power suits will be provided and unlocked, though they will be returned--by force, if necessary--upon the completion of the mission. A Medkit for each recovery team will be provided.||

If the Chief were much for outwardly expressing his emotions, he'd punch the air in triumph. Well, not a huge triumph. He still has to give his suit back at the end, but at least this confirms it's on the boat.

He'll be watching carefully for anything that might give him a hint as to what Stacy's done with it, too.

"Stacy: Have you in any way modified my armor?" he asks her seriously. This is a big concern. He probably won't trust whatever she says anyway, but he'll ask.

Upon hearing Stacy's first little announcement, she was relieved. The scanners could prove useful, and of course Samus always appreciated extra firepower. Plus, going down onto this unknown planet, trekking through the depths of forests, it sort of sounded like a typical mission for her. It wouldn't feel right going down without her suit.

Chief's question caught her attention, so she discreetly walked over to him. She wanted to let him on something.

"Most of my powerups were gone when I got my suit back the first time. I wouldn't trust anything she says about yours."

Cale cocked an eyebrow at the old-man. "It's a planet," he said dryly. "You act like you've never seen one before."

Easy for Cale to say, he's seen lots of planets, especially from this angle.

Bri lets out a low whistle at the sight of the planet.

"Here goes nothing, I guess."
