ABS FIESTA REDUX

[carolcat]

She glances briefly at the technicians he's with before leading him over to Arkhip's plane. "Look at this," she says to Elu in a joking tone, gesturing to the damaged craft, "give a pilot a drink and he'll pay you back with a plane to repair. Sheesh."

[Ad Bot]

[NoZoner]

: Her calling him those sorts of things certainly isn't helping.

Lorens looks back and forth between Xiaomei and the medic. "What are we going to do now?"

[Qwepir]

"I'm sorry. I don't know how to deal with this properly. I-"
he stops himself and breathes once again in an attempt to clear his mind
"I don't think it's the best action, but I can show you where she is."
A feeling of guilt starts to take its toll on Walters mind

: The others should be told too.

She glances briefly at the technicians he's with before leading him over to Arkhip's plane. "Look at this," she says to Elu in a joking tone, gesturing to the damaged craft, "give a pilot a drink and he'll pay you back with a plane to repair. Sheesh."

: Was that a joke?

Lorens looks back and forth between Xiaomei and the medic. "What are we going to do now?"

: Maybe a more level approach is needed. Major, why don't you let me take a crack at this? Step outside, calm down, stop... shouting in his face and disrespecting his parentage.

[carolcat]

: Was that a joke?

"Yeah. You're getting better at noticing," she remarks.

[Badger]

Walter looks back to Nagato

"I- I can try to tell her, if you go find Yamashiro and Xiaomei. then meet back here if you want to see her..."

[NoZoner]

"A more level approach?," the Mercanan queries, unsure of what she was referring to. A bad feeling starts to swell in his gut.

[Qwepir]

"Yeah. You're getting better at noticing," she remarks.

: Thank you.

"A more level approach?," the Mercanan queries, unsure of what she was referring to. A bad feeling starts to swell in his gut.

: Less shouting, less spikes of emotion and anger, just sitting down and talking.

Yamashiro steps outside, rubbing her temples in frustration.

Walter looks back to Nagato

"I- I can try to tell her, if you go find Yamashiro and Xiaomei. then meet back here if you want to see her..."

Musashi looks at you, then past you. She points over your shoulder at the figure emerging from one of the buildings.

[Deoxys And One Noob]

Hilbert finishes his lunch (?) and returns to his bunk to read the manuals for his new Jaguar for the umpteenth time.

[carolcat]

Cualli hands Elu some tools and starts working. "Have you been around him much lately? Arkhip, I mean."

[Badger]

Walter sighs softly before collecting himself for a few seconds and heading over and standing a few feet from her.

"Yamashiro, I need to speak to you about Matsumoto."

[NoZoner]

Sitting down and talking was exactly what we were doing just now...

Lorens watches helplessly as Yamashiro leave the room. Right after she steps through the doorway, he notices another silhouette appearing in front of her. Anxious to see what happens next, however, he turns back to Xiaomei and the medic before he could identify who it was.

[Qwepir]

Cualli hands Elu some tools and starts working. "Have you been around him much lately? Arkhip, I mean."

: No. I have been walking dogs and speaking to Coaxoch.

Walter sighs softly before collecting himself for a few seconds and heading over and standing a few feet from her.
"Yamashiro, I need to speak to you about Matsumoto."

: What is it?

Sitting down and talking was exactly what we were doing just now...

Lorens watches helplessly as Yamashiro leave the room. Right after she steps through the doorway, he notices another silhouette appearing in front of her. Anxious to see what happens next, however, he turns back to Xiaomei and the medic before he could identify who it was.

Xiaomei just sits near the medic and starts talking in a far less aggressive tone than Yamashiro was using. Once again, you find yourself feeling quite left out.

[carolcat]

"I've been meaning to talk to her. What's she like?"

[Badger]

"I'm not sure how to say this right, but she's in the mortuary."

[Qwepir]

"I've been meaning to talk to her. What's she like?"

: She is very distressed about her perceived failings, as well as her future prospects.

It pauses for a moment before continuing.
: She also once worked with the son of my former handler.

"I'm not sure how to say this right, but she's in the mortuary."

: She's what?
