ABS FIESTA REDUX

[Qwepir]

Tippy pops her knuckles, stands up and heads for the third flight deck

Nagato is waiting near the doorway you entered from.
: Hey, uh... are you doing alright?

[Ad Bot]

[Tayasaurus]

Tippy looks passed Nagato, refusing to look her in the eyes.

"Get out of my way."

[Qwepir]

Nagato just sighs and doesn't press the issue.

[Tayasaurus]

Tippy brushes past her and continues on her way

[Badger]

Walter curiously goes to find the pilot who was speaking Aesthian earlier on the flight deck, wondering if his suspicion is true.

You examine your surroundings but aren't able to discern who the voice from earlier came from. Everyone with a helmet on looks the same, and those without are clearly Goths or Aurussicans, nobody you would have ever met before. You're about to just give up and go back to your planes when you see one of the Imperial pilots walking towards you and Virvel and removing their helmet.
: Alright, what the hell are you people doing on my ship?

[Badger]

: Alright, what the hell are you people doing on my ship?

Walter chuckles at how Arkhip re-introduces himself

"Those thunderbolts gave you enough money to buy the whole carrier, huh? That officer is just for decoration?" He turns to take a glimpse at Virvel to see her expression for a moment "We didn't agree with the NAUC's decision to resort to nuclear warfare, and an opportunity was presented for us."

: Took the threat of nuclear war to finally clue you in that what you were fighting for wasn't worth it, huh? Not the part where we carpet bombed our own city?

[Tayasaurus]

Tippy having been exploring the flight deck notices Walt and Virvel talking to someone. She approaches and greets them.

"Hey walt, hi virvel... and you look familiar, have i seen you before?" Tippy says, looking eremit over.

[Mr. Hurricane]

"Limp-richard sonovabitch." Jaakko mutters, staring daggers.

: Took the threat of nuclear war to make you realize what you were fighting for wasn't worth it, huh?

"Took you a hell of a lot less to get you to sell out completely, didn't it?"

: I mean, yeah, he's the one that ran off and gave the Imps our thunderbolts.

"Took you a hell of a lot less to get you to sell out completely, didn't it?"

: You don't know what you're talking about.

[Gojira]

"...so you're the reason my Thunderbolts didn't work..." Markus mutters.
He's the reason good airmen like Letterman and Faw are dead.
Markus immediately feels anger boil up in his chest, but suppresses it for the time being.
This is not the time nor the place.

[Mr. Hurricane]

"Not only did you sell out for nothing, you brought them Aesthia's best weapons for next to nothing too. How many men do you think have died because you decided to take the easy way out?"

[Tayasaurus]

Tippys face comes to realization and then a huge grin

"I must have missed a lot or something. I didn't even know you jumped ship! You of all people?!"

Tippy tries to cover her mouth to contain her laughter

[Badger]

"Was just doing my job, then a better one came up, Along with good reason."
