*KellyofLuthien wanders into the kitchen where she finds Serenity and a man she's never seen before making tea and snacks.*
"Mara Aure," Kelly says. "Do you two need help?"
*CMS smiles.* "Nah, we got it, unless you'd like to join us? Seryn and I--oh, this is Seryn by the way, isn't it cool? She can transform!--anyway, we're gonna watch a movie."
"Oh!" Kelly exclaims. "I see. A movie, you say? I'd love to."
*Kelly helps finish making sandwiches, veggie sticks with dip, nachos, lemonade, fresh-baked cookies and a hot pot of tea to wash it all down and joins Serenity and Seryn in the common room.*

lmd wakes to find himself pleasantly squidged up with mai. as he looks down to watch her as she sleeps he fights to keep the smile forming on his lips from growing too large for the unreasonable fear of it somehow disturbing her rest and taking away the simple joy of the moment.

And yes, a drink and a movie sounds lovely.
Noticing others making for the couch and the screen in front of it, LightMeDark gathers the bottles and some snacks and places them in a satchel then gently lifts mai up from the couch with great care, holding her tenderly. Elemdee nods to the approaching tree'ers and takes his leave off to his favorite tree in the animal's keeping area.
After settling mai down against the tree lmd busies himself. Nodding, job done, he leans back to the tree taking liberty to cozy up against mai again.
Before he nods off he looks with satisfaction at his handiwork. A cloth lay on the grass in front of them, decorated with food and other nice trimmings.

*Ath holds out his hand for Soul to shake.*

"Well, there is a sewage outlet that leads into the Cess pit; you can get out through there..." Citizen started up the ladder.
"If you're going to go that way I'd go now." He said as he ascended. "It's not getting any cleaner..."
SR takes a bandanna from a pocket and ties it around his face bandito style and sprays the outside with breath spray.
"That should help with the stink," He thinks to himself "It's allready helping with the dust."
As Jack heads up the ladder SR moves down the tunnel. Fifteen meters on he encounters standing water, stagnant and fowl. SR moves on and soon the water is up to his knees. The footings is not too bad, for the most part it feels to be gravel and sand. SR moves at a quick pace not wanting to trip and fall yet realizing that time is clearly fleeting. SR tends toward the right hand side of the tunnel fearing a possible drop off into a deep pool in the center. The stink is not of raw sewage more that of a marsh breaking down bio mass, rank, but not unbearable. After another twenty meters the water is up to the middle of SR's thighs, but on the right the tunnel branches upward, a draft of fresh air is clearly felt and there is light. SR notices the sound of gunfire that had faded behind him is now more audible from the right. Unslinging his weapon and holstering his pistol he enters the right hand tunnel.

*wakes up slightly groggy and very hungry*
Wow. *pokes LMD* Hey sleepy head! Time to wake up. How on earth-that-still-is did we get here?
*looks around at the food spread*
Did you do all this? It's amazing!

"Oh. Really? That was easy."
He shakes Ath's hand. "Thanks."

On Boros:
From her prone position in the middle of the street, the wounded Bride6 continues to fire the pistol she got from Bride7, picking off opponents from the open end of the alley. But the dumpster blocking the other end of the alley begins to move. More Alliance troops have arrived from that direction, and are trying to squeeze around it.
Safe has been hit, and is lying to one side of the tunnel hatch. ScorpionRegent has proceeded down the tunnel in an attempt to flank the enemy. Citizen and CastIronJack have left the tunnel entrance.
With much effort, Bride7 heaves Bride6's pack full of weapons out of the tunnel entrance and plops it on the asphalt. "Six! Get your fat gorram ass back here! You have no cover!"
"Can't!" Bride6 answers. "Got hit in the right arm and right leg. But I think I took out seven more! And it's not THAT fat!"
Bride6 squeezes off the last round of her pistol. She releases the empty clip, and fumbles in vain with her mangled hand to pull another from her belt. "Can't reload!"
With bullets still flying around her, she whimpers for a moment.
Bride6 then carefully places the pistol by her head and reaches for a new clip with her left hand. She inserts the clip into the pistol, then uses her hand to slide the pistol toward her, jamming the clip into place with her chin. She picks it up and resumes firing.
"Okay!" Bride6 calls out. "Got it!"
Bride7 pulls a random weapon from the pack. She sneers at Jack, Citizen, and even the wounded Safe. "Say, do you he-men think you could be troubled to help? Or do you like to think of yourself as spectators?"
Quote:
Safe is about to post:
Jack sneers and stands, seemingly oblivious to the flying bullets, draws his machine gun pistols and unleashes a hail of bullets, pinning down the guards at the gate. This gives Bride7 the opportunity she was looking for. Running in a crouch, she slides in beside Bride6 popping off a few shots at the guards at the end of the alley brave enough to try to show their heads. Grabbing Bride6 by the back of the shirt, Bride7 drags her back to the alcove near the tunnels hatch.
“There, I saved your sorry butt again.”
Bride7 gets to her feet, tosses a smoke grenade ahead of her, and charges the open end of the alley, randomly firing off her shotgun as she goes.

Mmmm...this is nice.
*Serenity gets good and comfy, proping her feet up on an ottoman and taking a big bite of a sandwich.*
So, what shall we watch first?

* JadeHand wanders the docks outside of Ocean Cloud , he's checked the platinum 5 times. It's high quality and there's enough that they should be able to get the parts they need, maybe even get that extra SEP for Seryn's Fighter. He wonders if it's been given a name yet. He Thinks outloud to himself *
'Well, looks like time to check back with Rat on his contacts, and see where we need to stop to get these parts.'

"He's seen too much of life And there's no going back.
The loneliness calls him, And the edge which must be sharpened,
He's losing it. And he knows.
But there's a fighter in his mind and his body's tough
The years have been unkind, but kind enough." -Ocean Cloud (Marbles) -Marillion
