"Yes, grandpappy, you heard fooling around. Deal with it." called out Val, glaring at the owl's back.

"Besides, I think sleep is on everyone's mind now. Now where did I put..." she muttered, casting her eyes about for her shirt.

"Your shirt is over there," Solari gestured towards the *Colour* lump on the ground.

I leave for two days and there are ten more pages.

Yeah. Your fault for not being here for two days. BIC,

Val nodded to Solari, grabbing her shirt. Scowling at the owl, she headed off towards the crew quarters, aft.

Over the intercom, Sagittarius cleared his throat.

"Excuse me, but it may interest YOU PATHETIC BEINGS to note that we are approaching your destination. Just thought you should know, IN CASE YOU WANTED THIS LAST CHANCE TO THROW YOURSELVES OUT AN AIRLOCK!"

Zuguth woke up the following morning, and found the ship flying near a beautiful blue planet, the system's star shining in the distance.
He got dressed and walked to the mess hall for a cup of coffee, and then went to the bridge.
"Good morning, passengers, this is your captain speaking. If you look out the windows on the port side, you'll see the beautiful Vemitana III, a popular holiday resort for many. If you'd like to visit it before we continue our journey, please tell me ASAP."

OOC, the beginning of the end. The general idea: ship ends up over neutral world X, ships come to retrieve the various characters, then the cityship fraks off at great speed.

Setting up for the next Grounded RP. Dun dun dun.

OOC: Well, isn't this the perfect neutral planet, then?

OOC, Sure.
BIC,

Val heard the announcement, ignored it, and headed into the crew quarters. Throwing her shirt onto a bed, she found a ship's uniform- not that it would fit. Shaking her head, she wandered back towards the bridge, tossing a nod to Zuguth as she entered.

Zuguth nodded to Val as she entered the bridge.
"I guess if we dropped off here we could get our folks to pick us up" he stated.
"Might be a nice place to just unwind, too."
The AI sparked to life.
"I support all ideas that REMOVE YOU FILTHY VERMIN FROM-"
"Sagittarius will you kindly just shut up please?"

Solari headed off and grabbed his armour, which he immediately equipped, then headed back to a crew quarters and sat on the bed thinking about what happened over the past few days.

Glancing over at Zuguth with a raised eyebrow, she commented, "Snapping at him? That's new. And does the comms system work, at all?"

Deciding to go ask zuguth if he can blow the AI up, he rose from the bed, and knocked on Zuguth's door. "Permission to enter, captain?" after waiting awhile Solari wanders off to the bridge. "Oh hey zuguth. Can I go destroy the AI"

"Well, he's just repeating himself with the 'remove organics' part. Never even done anything. Probably respects me and my hat too much. And the comm systems work surprisingly well. I just found out we can even have internet access and radio."
To demonstrate, he pressed some buttons and turned some knobs, and the radio tuned in to Station 21, where a new hit was playing.
After a moment of relative silence, Zuguth spoke up again.
"Also, you should probably put on some clothes. The other passengers might get embarrassed. And if you don't feel like wearing your own clothes, then we have already stated that the clothes here adjust themselves after your body."

Zuguth then turned to Solari.
"You most certainly can not and if you do I'll have you sucked out into space and then roasted by the engines."

Val shrugged. "Mind if I transmit something?" she asked. Getting a nod, she adjusted the controls, sending a line of text out on a VHF frequency, before nodding and finding a seat.

Turning to Zuguth, she queried, "Uncomfortable, or something? I doubt anyone cares, frankly."

"Why not?"
