: I understand if this is a bad time, but do you think you could do me a favor? It's nothing big, really, I just need you to take something to someone.
Cualli looks up at him again. On one hand, she remembers all of Arkhip's past commentary on his squadmate: overwhelmingly negative. But on the other hand, some of that was proved wrong earlier when Frisk took up for her. And right now, Cualli knows that it's in her best interests to try to stay on people's good side.

"Yeah, I can," she says, although her expression is just as miserable as before. "I wasn't planning on eating, anyways. What is it?"

Tippy proceeds to dump creamer into her coffee.

"Until it stops tasting like coffee, never... who are you?"

Ellie enters the mess hall, grabbing some food and sitting over at the table with Jaakko and the Djuriskas squadron leader.  Bell followed after a few minutes later, looking a little bit weary as she got a tray and went looking for a seat.

"I know we have Tukrebs in inventory and I could check and see what the closest brown townog to a Typhoon would be,"
: It doesn't have to be an exact representation of enemy forces, I just need to make sure these two rookies won't get any of us killed.

"Yeah, I can," she says, although her expression is just as miserable as before. "I wasn't planning on eating, anyways. What is it?"
: It's in here.

He hands Cualli a small, drab pouch like what you would see hanging off of a soldier's tactical webbing.
: Don't worry about what's in it, just give it to Senior Airman Lorenzen. He works night shifts in one of the engine rooms but he bunks in the same area you do.

Tippy proceeds to dump creamer into her coffee.

"Until it stops tasting like coffee, never... who are you?"
The nameless crewman just watches the coffee, as if anticipating for it to overflow.
: Someone who likes coffee to be coffee, not sugar water.

Cualli looks at it for a moment before accepting it. "Alright. As soon as I see him, I'll give it to him."

She pauses for a moment before adding, "thanks again for not actually letting Virvel stab me. I don't know what made me think egging her on like that was a good idea."

Ellie catches onto what the conversation is about by Kommandmant's last sentence.

"Oh, are we going to have another wargame? I might have to hop back in the Tukreb for that."

"Good afternoon. The wargame's for helping Kommandant drill his new recruits," Jaakko comments.

He runs his hand through his hair.

"I'm looking for an excuse to hop back in the Fenrir without it being neutered by ESAM but I know this isn't the time," he says in a more subdued voice.

: Someone who likes coffee to be coffee, not sugar water.
"Well you're up to bat, the machines all yours."

Tippy brushes past Goggles and heads over to grab some food at the next counter over.

Tippy is greeted by Walter flipping some food onto his own plate with the serving spoon

"Haven't seen you around in awhile, been assigned to something else?"

: Yeeah, she's a bit of a hothead. Don't worry about her, she's over it now.

"Good afternoon. The wargame's for helping Kommandant drill his new recruits," Jaakko comments.

"I'm looking for an excuse to hop back in the Fenrir without it being neutered by ESAM but I know this isn't the time," he says in a more subdued voice.
: Maybe I wasn't clear enough. I don't care what you bring. It doesn't matter what simulated opponents they're going up against. Those two need more time in the roosterpit, full stop.

: Yeeah, she's a bit of a hothead. Don't worry about her, she's over it now.
She nods slightly. "Yeah, Arkhip..." Cualli's voice falters slightly, "...told me."

Cualli glances at the small pouch again. "Not meaning to pry, but how come you couldn't deliver this in person?"

Jaakko is a bit annoyed.

"I understand. How many people do you think I should bring?"

She nods slightly. "Yeah, Arkhip..." Cualli's voice falters slightly, "...told me."

Cualli glances at the small pouch again. "Not meaning to pry, but how come you couldn't deliver this in person?"
: 'Cause a pilot's got no business being in the area of the ship he works. It's just more convenient if you hand it off to him in the crew quarters.

Jaakko is a bit annoyed.

"I understand. How many people do you think I should bring?"
: Three. Maybe four.

Jaakko turns to Ellie.

"And you said you were interested?" he asks.

Ellie gives Jakko a nod.

"Yeah, I don't plan on going easy on them, obviously."
