ABS FIESTA REDUX

[Qwepir]

Virvel brings the VTOL in for a landing and those aboard are allowed to disembark once it is brought into the hangar.

[Mr. Hurricane]

Jaakko helps bring Yui's body to the on-board morgue, before turning in his gear in the armory.

[Gojira]

Markus helps Jaakko with the body, remaining silent on the way to the morgue.

[CypherX]

Gus returns his gear to the armory, then promptly reports to Bell in the medbay. He waits for a nurse to finish tending to her shoulder injury before approaching.

"Ma'am."

[Operator¹]

: I'm guessing that Yui didn't make it. I hope this was all worth it.

Bell stands up from her chair.

: I'm heading back to my room, I only grieve in private.

[Qwepir]

At breakfast the next morning, the screens in the galley are listing casualties from yesterday's engagements. Some people are crowding around them to see if they recognize anyone.

Cualli is sitting at a table with Elu, eating her breakfast. She's reading a report of what work needs to get done on the aircraft in the hangar.

dorites are better than poop floops

[Gojira]

Markus finds Walt and Tippy and sits at the table with them, a tray of food in hand.

[Mr. Hurricane]

Jaakko arrives late. He feels exhausted, and he finds that his core is sore from straining himself evading during the missions, or that he is suffering from cramps or hunger pangs.

He grabs breakfast, thankful that it's practically gourmet compared to airbase food, and takes it to Cualli's and Elu's table, missing somehow the cluster of Mjolnir pilots.

"Good morning," he croaks before clearing his throat.

[carolcat]

Cualli looks up from her packet. "Hey," she says. She looks him over and then adds, "you look like you've barely slept."

[Tayasaurus]

Walter heads over to Tippy's table and takes a seat

Tippy continues to eat her cereal and stares at Walt. The dark circles under her eyes indicated a restless sleep.

[CypherX]

Gus follows Jaakko to the table with his tray and takes a seat. The sight of Elu reminds him of the mission prior to SAR.

"Have we heard what we'll be doing with Phobos and Tychon?"
