A slightly smaller Mess

Charles: of course you are.

It was ilitha she was using a walking stick

Laurence: "Just making that clear."

Hera: "oh... Um. Hello." *she pushes the laspistol back into its holster*

Charles: no need. Was obvious.

She grabs out a hand held device to communicate " I just wanted to check up on you " she typed " if you are important to Charles then you are important to me " she said her arm holding the stick shook a bit .

Laurence: "Good, i think we'll work well together."

Hera: "I was just going to get some food then head to my room... Do you want to join me? for something to eat that is."

Ilitha smiled and nodded typing " I would love to "

Charles: agreed. For now however, we need supplies.

Hera: "Well, lets go then."

Laurence: "Indeed."

She nods following her

Charles: is there anything else you need of me?

Laurence: *he thinks for a moment, then raises an eyebrow* "...Alcohol?"

Charles: what, right here? or do you want to find the bar. I can do both.

She types to hera " would you prefer I cook or where do you wan t to eat?"

Hera: "There's a canteen aboard, i was just going to go there... I haven't cooked in months."

Laurence: "ehhh.... I was thinking of getting blackout drunk, i'm assuming the drinks you have in here are expensive."

She nods and types some more " that sounds nice " before typing " I'm sorry"

"You're sorry? what for?" *she looks over looking slightly concerned*

Charles: somewhat.

" I lost my composure out there , I'm sure you could have handled the situation but I didn't want to take the risk and I couldn't help out later on" she typed

"Oh, its fine." *the tone of her voice tells a slightly different story, but at least she's trying to be polite*

Laurence: "Bar it is."

She cought on to the tone of her voice a tad and it didnt make her feel good " can you show me the cantina please , its been far to long since I've been here" she typed and smiled

"Very well. I'll see you later."

Hera: "That i can."

Laurence: "Drop by later if you want." *he turns around and mock salutes, picking up his bag as he leaves, and muttering to himself* "I wonder if they have any fenrisian ale..."

Ilitha nodded following Hera to the cantina , when they arrive she sits at the table with Hera typing in " so how long have you known Charles for ?"

Hera: *sitting down with a bowl of grox stew* "About... two months now? How about you? How long've you known the old dog."

She pulled out a picture of her as a small kid and a much younger Charles " he took me off the streets when I was young , pretty much raised me , he's the reason I'm apart of the sisters of silence " she typed she didn't really know what to get to eat so she just got water for now.

Charles chuckles and returns to his book

Hera: "yeah... i can see that. Its rather unnerving." *perhaps the reason she's being terse, is that as a blank, the sister is mildly terrifying to her*

" I hope I don't make you uncomfortable I can control what my abilities affect , so I won't hurt even if you are a psyker." She typed looking a bit worried for Hera.

Hera: "Its just... seeing. it. You're... there and not at the same time."

" I don't follow?" She typed

Hera: "I can see you, with my eyes. Obviously... but...." *she thinks for a moment, taking a bite of bread while considering the right way to put it* "With my mind, theres just a... Hole. Just a big chunk of absolutely nothing."

" ah I understand that is a perfectly understandable reason why you are unerved ." she typed as she went to get a sandwich

*She slurps a bit at her spoon.* "Yeah. is a bit."

" I'm sorry about that " she types " If I could fix it I would "

"Its fine... i should just learn to turn off my wytch sight."

*Charles receives a vox request from the hammer*

" can I ask you a favor just in case I'm not around?" She types

Hera: "Depends entirely on the favour."

" if I'm gone I want you to keep Charles and doctor Kara safe" she types more blushing a bit when typing doctor Kara's name

Hera: "I can definitely promise i'll keep Charles safe, but i leave the ship a lot, and Kara stays aboard. I'll do what i can, i'll give you that much."

Charles answers it on his personal vox in his study

*captain raeven appears* "Inquisitor."

" I appreciate that she's..." She thinks of a way to describe " very important to me , very important "

"Captain. What can I do for you?"

Hera: "I've got a lot of people to take care of, she was already on the list, but, i'll move her up it."

Raeven: "We're still attached to your company. Would you care to share the plan going forwards?"

Charles: of course, my apologies for not filling you in sooner. We're moving to these coordinates. My men need to resupply and recouperate before we move on.

Raeven: "To where will we be, moving on?"

Charles: wherever we are needed. I will discuss the matter with my apprentice and subordinates when we are resupplied, you are welcome to voice your opinion on the matter.

" thank you" she types " it means alot to me " she finishes her meal before she types " shall II walk with you to your room?"

Raeven: "To be honest, i've been out of the loop for some time now. I'll trust your judgement on this inquisitor." *It is quite possibly the first time a salamander has uttered those words without sarcasm.*

Hera: "I don't think that's necessary. Charles and i share one."
