ABS FIESTA REDUX
carolcat:
Cualli takes Elu and heads to the rec room.
Mr. Hurricane:
Jaakko alternates between shock and anguish while he cleans up. Rather absentmindedly, he shows up in the rec room. His expression is contorted with anger as he scans the room. He finds Cualli, and gives her a venomous glance. Despite this, Jaakko resists the sudden erge to grind his teeth by some reasonable part of him making the distinction between good and bad Deltans.
He finds a seat nearby and makes a point of not looking at anyone. His position shifts back and fourth between holding his head in his hands and hunched over the end of his seat.
CypherX:
A few doctors and nurses begin making their way towards the group, a few of them stopping at Ellie's bed. A pair of nurses look between him and Lorens, and he steps aside, realizing he must be in the way.
"I don't want to hold up the staff here any longer, so I'll catch you guys later. Hopefully you'll be out and good to go before long."
Gus lingers for a moment longer before leaving and heading to the rec room. Jaakko's depressed demeanour sticks out, so Gus heads over towards him and taps him on the shoulder.
"Hey, how'd it go? What did they have you scramble for on such short notice? I didn't hear."
Mr. Hurricane:
Jaakko sanitizes his words.
"An airline was hijacked and it started heading this way. It was hijacked by Deltans, and we were forced to shoot it down. Hell, they wanted us to shoot it down," Jaakko replies curtly in a harsh tone.
CypherX:
Gus is stunned and takes a moment to reply.
"Oh," he says simply. The campaign in Kronovostok and then this. He shakes his head in disbelief as Jaakko looks on, no doubt furious. Old memories of his thoughts on the Deltans come to mind, which causes him to start again.
"Who knows? And how long before every news organisation on the continent is broadcasting this?"
His gaze settles on Cualli briefly.
