ABS FIESTA REDUX

[Badger]

Walter at this point has made his way to the table of contents already, yet his uncollected thoughts start flooding back to him as he hears the conversation in front of him. He doesn't say anything as he doesn't want to intrude, but starts to squirm a small amount and shuffle while he thinks to himself.

There was something off. And It's not just me

[Ad Bot]

"Jeez," she breathes, and looks like her first reaction would be to place a reassuring hand on his back, but she restrains herself. Cualli takes a moment to process it all. "That... sounds pretty bad."

She looks him over. "I'm guessing you weren't injured, at least? I noticed your craft came back intact. How are the other three faring?"

[Badger]

Walter rubs his forehead and looks back down at the book, resuming his research while his mind is still attached to the previous thoughts.

Walter rubs his forehead and looks back down at the book, resuming his research while his mind is still attached to the previous thoughts.

It's quite a large book, and you aren't able to find what you're looking for right away. Instead, you find a tale about Nebolai dropping a meteor on an ancient Gothic settlement on the Aesthian mainland.

Eremit begins fussing with the prayer beads.
: I don't actually know how they're doing. But I've seen pictures of what particle cannons do to people, it's not pretty. All we can do is pray that they aren't suffering and that the doctors know how to treat them.

[carolcat]

"I'm sure the doctors know what they're doing," she assures him. "I'm sure they've handled injuries like those before."

Cualli watches him fiddle with his prayer beads. "But praying wouldn't hurt," she adds, smiling slightly.

Walter continues to read but his mind follows the conversation in front of him more intently than his current task.

: I sure hope so. Frisk may be a jerk, but he doesn't deserve this.

Gus undergoes minor surgery to remove all of the shrapnel and close the abdominal puncture wound. Once again, he's laid up in the hospital, this time for around 4-5 days.

Pansar pops into the infirmary after your relatively quick treatment is administered.
: Ah, you made it! How'd things look from down there?

[carolcat]

: I sure hope so. Frisk may be a jerk, but he doesn't deserve this.

"I take it you aren't particularly fond of part of your squad," she comments.

[Mr. Hurricane]

Jaakko wakes up and heads out to the mess hall. He looks around and sees if there is anyone there.

[CypherX]

"Deserted. Imperials wiped the sector I landed in. Saw a Zent patrol as well as what was left of a Svirak Militia bunker, personnel included. Truth be told I spent most of my time with a medkit in the bathroom, or with my head down on the way to CSAR."

Gus pauses and recalls what he saw in the skies.

"I could see you all take down that destroyer though. Heard the big turrets firing, too. How'd you all fare? Better than me, I hope."

[Gojira]

Yui wonders what's for dinner.

"I take it you aren't particularly fond of part of your squad," she comments.

Eremit looks around to make sure nobody in his squad is nearby before continuing.
: They're... rather draining to deal with. Frisk and Virvel especially.

: Frisk nearly bought it, Eremit nearly bought it, Virvel and Kommandant probably would've bought it if we got jumped... it was a good fight.

: They're... rather draining to deal with. Frisk and Virvel especially.

"I've never really talked with pilots much, but I see them sometimes in the hangar while I'm working." She pauses to think. "Virvel's the one who seems kind of crazy all the time, and Frisk is the one with a cigarette practically glued to his mouth, right? From what I've seen and heard of them, they do seem like a handful."

Walter looks up at the mention of Virvel and finally speaks up

"uh... Sorry about when we were at the bar awhile ago. I wasn't expecting her to bother you like that."
