River-Prince said to Pelza, the healer,"I can speak now! Love,I haz for nice smelling woman! Can I have some chickenz? Roasted! Mmmmmmm!" Snowflake said, "Hold still! I need to fit this armor to you. At least you should move better in this vest." Pelza was shocked to hear the large creature saw what he said."You love me?" RP nodded and looked at Pelza with happy eyes. Pelza turned away and held her face in dismay. She gritted her teeth and said,"Oh sure...I love you too. You're a nice fellow." She muttered, "He SPEAKS! Oh my god." Snowflake remarked, "They were a bloddy mess when they got back. They took his armor for blood samples of the alien he killed.Tall White Lady ran to the bathroom to urinate before debriefing the Command. As soon as Toxic gets that tracking bracelet off, the slave-girl will be debriefed as well." Toxic glared at Snowflake and growled,"I'm working on it! You one eyed robot toaster! You want my boyfriend's bread in your slot to toast it! Leave off you grabby toaster girl! I don't like you." "I only want sex with 518 to see how compatible our sex organs are! What is the big deal?" Snowflake replied angrily. "Shaddup! I'm showing sisterhood, by wearing plastic clip on ears, like your's, so shaddup! You can't have my boyfriend,though!" Toxic replied snipily. Martya patted Pelza on the shoulder hard, and giggled, "Sometimes, you want to shut them all up!" She burst into guffaws of laughter and howled with gales of chortles. Snowflake looked at the alert status lights showing green and then start blinking. She remarked, "Need to offload to the freighter and suit up for Pazu's ship. TWL and 518 will be on Awina's vessel. I need to go, the uncoupling warning is blinking. Come on Martya, Neblae is already on board the freighter." Martya choked off her laughter, and said,"Toxic! Make yourself useful here. You can regulate and increase the fusion engine outputs. Go to engineering and report to Narchi. Please follow his orders like you would Jin's. Good luck." Toxic jumped up and hugged Martya. After a moment, she hugged Snowflake. It was awkward and lasted only a moment. Toxic growled out,"I STILL don't like you, but I don't want you to die. Or anything like that." Toxic looked at the slavegirl and rubbed her forarm where the locater had been embedded. She looked at Toxic. Toxic looked some more and said,"You are too afraid of stuff. You need some cookies! Come with me! Beside cheapo clip-on ears, I found a cookie stash!" Toxic grinned and grabbed the tall coppery woman and dragged her off. The Asuran slave-girl asked,"What's a cookie?" The door shut and cut off Toxic's stunned answer. Pelza realized that she was alone with River Prince. She turned nervously to him and exclaimed,"Well..gotta go to the clinic and be ready to respond to combat damage. Go to the breifing room and ...uh...debrief folks!" She turn and practically ran out of the room. R-P frowned and huffed. "Now can talk--but no people to talk too! Irritating! No chickenz either!" He stalked out the door as the status lights turned blue, showing the ships disconnect from each other. --TO BE CONTINUED!--
