[D6ME] METAL BAWKSES

[Petrus Karath]

Gently, Petrus disengaged, easing back. "Well. Pleasure to meet you, Keeli." He said, giving a wave. "And thanks for looking out for Floats and family."

He gave Floats another look. "You feel any better?" He asked gently.

[Dapper Dog]

He gulped and said, "It's my duty, sir."

[Fathynyu Kurrek]

Gently, Petrus disengaged, easing back. "Well. Pleasure to meet you, Keeli." He said, giving a wave. "And thanks for looking out for Floats and family."

He gave Floats another look. "You feel any better?" He asked gently.

"Lotta conflicting emotions at the moment. Like when you gotta dismantle a well loved boat, you know?"
She takes a few deep breaths and shakes her head
"But I'm dealing with it, you know, not shaving my head and wearing black."

[Sacha Ordo]

Finally realizing there wasn't really going to be a good time, Sacha scooted out and poked her head out from behind the machinery. "Hey... sorry to interrupt..."

[Petrus Karath]

"Oh." Petrus offered the newcomer a smile. "Hey, Sacha. I wasn't sure I was gonna see you here. I'm glad, though."

He rose to his feet. "Uh, Sacha, Floats, you remember each other, yeah? From Warrior's Heart night?"

[Fathynyu Kurrek]

"Oh." Petrus offered the newcomer a smile. "Hey, Sacha. I wasn't sure I was gonna see you here. I'm glad, though."

He rose to his feet. "Uh, Sacha, Floats, you remember each other, yeah? From Warrior's Heart night?"

Sniffle
"Hey now, I've known Sacha for ages....at least a couple weeks now, we met on the ship in and she helped me when my shop got confiscated."
That gets her misting up again...that poor shop, it deserved better
"And she was defending her people at the big shindig last night. Real brave too, she went straight for the big evil one."

"And she was defending her people at the big shindig last night. Real brave too, she went straight for the big evil one."

"Yeah... We're friends," she said., Then turned to Floats. "I'm sorry... I overheard a little. I wasn't trying to but..."

"About that... I'm sorry for what you've gone through because of that. I don't know if I told you, but the Empire, one of the Inquisitors, made us an offer. It was my decision to say no and fight."

She looked away and rubbed one arm. "I think I made the right call and I'd do the same again, but... Any suffering on you is at least partly my responsibility. So... I don't know, if there's anything I can do to help... I can't take back asking you to be there, but..."

“Hey now Miss Sacha. Nothing you gotta he feeling cut up over. If you do, you gotta join the hug circle, and I think Petrus is all hugged out.”

Managing a smile
“Look, seems to me you told some jackbooted thugs to go’n mind their own business. And they took to bullying and attacking in return. But that doesn’t mean it’s your fault anymore than it’s a bear’s fault for mauling a hunter. And it ain’t like you dragged me in anyway. So don’t be worrying about it, yah hear?”

[Sacha Ordo]

She gave a small chuckle, a little sad. She stepped over and reached out, pulling her into a hug. "Guess I've gotta join the hug circle, then. Sounded like you could need some extra, anyway."

[Fathynyu Kurrek]

She gave a small chuckle, a little sad. She stepped over and reached out, pulling her into a hug. "Guess I've gotta join the hug circle, then. Sounded like you could need some extra, anyway."

Squeeze!

Mouthing at Petrus over Sacha's shoulder 'She's joining the hug circle!'

"Don't you go listening to Petrus, I've never thrown someone in a box for hugging me.....well except once, but he more than deserved it."

[Petrus Karath]

Petrus chuckled. "Well, I guess I'd better get in on this too." He stepped forward, putting his arms around both of his friends.

"It's been a rough couple of days." He murmured. "But we'll all help each other out, huh?"

[Sacha Ordo]

Sacha moved one hand to wrap around him as well, holding both as she nodded. "Yeah. We'll get through it together."

[Petrus Karath]

"Yeah, we will." Petrus said firmly.

Gently, after one last squeeze, he disengaged. He looked at Sacha. "But really, I am glad you're here, Sacha. We could really use your help." He gestured around with one hand. "As you can see. But hey, it's starting to look really nice. And someone got the air-hydroconditioning working." Petrus sighed relief. "Thank the Force."

[Fathynyu Kurrek]

"Are you joining the resistance full time Miss Sacha? Now we got hydro-airconditioning I think things are really looking up! And it does wonders for the skin, I don't even need my moisturizing grease!"

[Petrus Karath]

"You don't need it." Petrus said, smiling. "But it looks like you still have some anyway."

Petrus blinked. They'd just hugged. He ran a hand over his face confirming that he, too, had some moisturizing grease.

[Sacha Ordo]

"Getting the HVAC going is always a pain. It's inevitably horribly dusty in the vents," she mused, before looking to Floats. "... Fullish time. I finally have enough scrap to make that armor, so I'll be spending some time back at the camp the next week or two. After that... Yeah, I plan to be here helping out as much as I can."

[Fathynyu Kurrek]

Fistpump

"That's real swell then! I've gone from no friends, to some friends but all spaced out, to all my friends in the one place!"

[Petrus Karath]

"Yeah, that's the spirit!"

Petrus looked back and forth between the two of them. "You know what I'm thinking?" His eyebrows went up.

[Fathynyu Kurrek]

"Yeah, that's the spirit!"

Petrus looked back and forth between the two of them. "You know what I'm thinking?" His eyebrows went up.

Floats' eye twitches as she struggles mightily not to say 'about boats?!?!?!' instead managing to look questioningly.

[Sacha Ordo]

"Warrior's Heart?" Sacha volunteered.

[Petrus Karath]

"Warrior's Heart?" Sacha volunteered.

"Warrior's Heart!" Petrus said, grinning, his pointer fingers aiming first at Sacha, then at Floats. "I mean, you guys do wanna see what happens next, right? I mean, it ended on a cliffhanger. It pretty much always does, but this was a big one."

He looked back and forth between them. "What do you say? Are you in? Another big viewing party? Maybe a medium-sized one?"

[Fathynyu Kurrek]

"Warrior's Heart!" Petrus said, grinning, his pointer fingers aiming first at Sacha, then at Floats. "I mean, you guys do wanna see what happens next, right? I mean, it ended on a cliffhanger. It pretty much always does, but this was a big one."

He looked back and forth between them. "What do you say? Are you in? Another big viewing party? Maybe a medium-sized one?"

Pffft, it could have been boats
"Oh my golly gosh, do you think they're finally gonna reveal the masked assassin's identity? I'm so sure he's her brother but, what if he's not?!?! I'm so in, we can have a resistance watch party now we're all fighting for freedom."

[Petrus Karath]

Petrus grinned, unaware of his boat-related inadequacy.

"Okay, great. We'll get it set up, then. Or, I will. All the same people invited, of course, and I can think of a few more who should be there. See if we can find a good room to watch it in, and what snacks we can scrounge up."

He looked at Floats. "You wanna hear who I think it is?" He didn't wait for the answer. "Her future child." His eyebrows went up, inviting a reaction to this information.

GASP SQUEE
"Nooooooooooo! Oh but that means-......and then-.....ohhhh!"
There is a little dance

[Sacha Ordo]

Petrus grinned, unaware of his boat-related inadequacy.

He looked at Floats. "You wanna hear who I think it is?" He didn't wait for the answer. "Her future child." His eyebrows went up, inviting a reaction to this information.

Sacha sucked in a long gasp. "Oh my gosh, that would be AMAZING. But that would mean they're a character we already know, wouldn't it? I mean, they might introduce someone new, but it would be weird right now... Ahhh, I don't know the characters well enough to guess!"
