The Syndicate

Joint post by Graham and Ellie Location: Jenny Wren, Passenger Cabin “What are you doing here Ian?” Under Ellie’s questioning eyes, Graham searched for the right words. Finally he just said, “You know why I’m here El, I’m here for you.” He searched her face for some sign of what she might be thinki...

Location: Jenny Wren, Galley Low watched the doctor depart the room, he felt a sudden twinge of guilt and it took him a moment to realize why. He had not meant to insult or accuse the man of something but he knew he had touched on a sore subject with him as well. "I need a drink!" he said...

Location: Cargo Hold (Teddy feel free to write some interaction, conversation here before Graham approaches us) Out of the corner of her eye Ellie saw someone walking toward them. She turned to see Graham just as he came up and said apologetically, "Sorry to interrupt, but I was hoping you mig...

Location: Jenny Wren, Galley Graham listened to Low's little speech quietly. He watched him closely. As Low wrapped up he asked, "I take it you didn't have the pleasure of fighting in the war? What were you doing while we were off dying?" His gaze fell to the table, such a question felt a...

Location: Jenny Wren, Galley A quick glance of the room told him Ellie had left and he looked questioningly at Low, "Where did Ellie go?" He felt at odds now, thrown into a group of people he barely knew, unable to save their pilot, it was such a mess. He turned again to Low, "So you...

Location: Galley Kitsune entered back into the galley and saw that Fiona was now conscious and the doc was helping her out. "I'm pleased to meet you Fiona. Take these, for your headache," as he set pills down in front of her "Now turn your processors back off and get some rest."...

Location: Jenny Wren, Jane's Cabin After Kitsune left, Ellie started going through the dresser drawers. It felt like an invasion of Jane's privacy, but they had to find out if there was anyone out there who might want to know that Jane was gone. Ellie packed her things as she looked through it all....

Location: Jenny Wren, Galley "I'm pleased to meet you Fiona. Take these, for your headache," he set two pills down in front of her. He could tell from her complexion and her behavior her head was hurting. Then he said, Now turn your processors back off and get some rest." With that h...

Fiona kept her eyes on the man's face. Her head was pounding and she could only make out every few words through her mental confusion. Nevertheless she tried as best she could to focus on what he said. "Yes... hurt very... too much blood... sorry... comfort to... be alone. You... good... with ...

Location: Jenny Wren, Galley She swallowed, her throat unspeakably dry, and managed to get out, "It's rude. My mother told me... it's rude." She swallowed again and tried to resist the urge to put her head on the table. "Jane died, didn't she?" Graham took a deep breath, he hadn...

Fiona felt a hand cup her head and some small part of her thought it was her father. Some of the tension eased immediately and she felt her body instinctively take a deep breath. The scent that immediately assailed her nostrils sharpened the world around her, though she was still disoriented when a...

[quote=Ellie & Kitsune]Location: Jane's Cabin “Yea that's not a problem, did she leave any will, or do you know her religious customs?.” looking around the room for anything that might give a clue. Ellie leaned back against the small dresser and folded her arms, “No idea, our pilot wasn’t exactl...

Location: Galley Graham took the bag from her, and she quickly moved back out of the way, no use getting in the way of people who knew what they were doing when she didn't. She took a seat on the stool next to Kitsune. Without looking at him as she continued watching Graham caring for Fiona, she as...

Location: Jenny Wren, galley Even Graham was feeling crowded by the people gathered around now, he could only imagine that the struggling girl was feeling it even worse. Ignoring people barking at him, and acting generally panicked, he took the bag from Ellie without comment and opened it, searchin...

[quote=Low]Location: Galley Liam looked on unsure what to do other than to make sure that she knew she wasn't alone and she was being taken care of. She was obviously frightened out of her wits. Movement caught his attention as a man rose up from the spiral staircase, he seemed to survey the situati...

Location:Stairs to the Galley Kitsune ascended the spiral stairs to the galley, he thought he was the first to get back, though he knew they were in a rush to get help for a crew member, but as he neared the top he heard voices, some strange others familiar. There was a deal of stress in their voic...

Location: Jenny Wren, galley Liam watched the woman as she struggled in his arms, he was doing his best to hold onto her to keep her from banging herself up, slowly he looked over towards the doctor. "Well help her then! Come on doc!" he barked. He slowly and painfully pushed her back upr...

Location: Galley Fiona tried to overcome the roar in her head. She tried to open her eyes. There was a sharp pain like a fist clenched around her heart. It hurt to breathe. Her hands were clenched in fists that wouldn't relax. Noise assailed her ears and she fitfully tried to reach up for her proce...

Location: Mule behind the bar Teddy:"So now what do we do about the 'other deal'...?" Kitsune:"We go pick it up" Starting the Mule and heading for the next stop. After a drive they reach their destination, a rather conformed building indistinguishable from the rest yet somehow s...

Location: Jenny Wren, galley "This feels..." Her voice caught in her throat and the galley tilted around her. "This feels..." She seemed to go flush before crying out for "Help" and started to fall forward. He managed to get an arm under her before she completely went ...

Location: Jenny Wren, Jane's Cabin Graham cleaned up the cabin as well as Jane's body. He covered her body with a sheet and took one last look around the room. Leaving the room he headed down the corridor toward the galley, but paused just around the corner. He tried to compose himself and figure o...

Location: Jenny Wren, galley Low's smile was beaming he was happy about this by chance meeting, but very quickly his smile digressed into concern as he watched Fiona start to hyperventilate or at least that's what he thought was going on. Her trembling hand was reaching for a cup of tea but she fai...

Location: Jenny Wren, Galley Fiona looked up at the captain, still shaken from the events that had transpired and the time spent next to Jane's bedside. She still wasn't sure if the world was right side up or not, and the vibrations of the ship pressed against her head like a bizarre, far-off cacop...

Location: Jenny Wren, Galley Low reached into a pocket of his duster and slowly pulled an old scratched and scuffed brown bottle from his pocket and set it on the table. "Well," he slowly withdrew the cork allowing a rich sweet smell to release from the bottle. "I woke up in the gene...

Location: Jenny Wren, galley They made the short walk back to the galley and Ellie dug in a cupboard and put together a small snack for them, nothing fancy, and set it out on the table. Rifling through the refrigerator, she pulled out a pitcher of tea and poured them each a glass, setting them down...

Location: Cargo Hold; Jenny Wren Teddy was staring at Kitsune with an unamused look, he wasn't the fondest of this crewmate of his, however, right now, it wasn't his place to judge or make the demands. It wasn't his shift, or his crew, he was simply a member of it. The leadership rank of Major held...

Location: Drunken Spacefarer Low grinned Sheepishly. "Well, perhaps we can talk on the way." he gestured toward the door tossing the rest of his coin on the bar and picking up his things. He limped after them. "I knew you were too stubborn to die on that rock!" he said cheerfull...

Location: Greenleaf, Drunken Spacefarer Low grinned Sheepishly. "Well, perhaps we can talk on the way." he gestured toward the door tossing the rest of his coin on the bar and picking up his things. He limped after them. "I knew you were too stubborn to die on that rock!" he sai...

Behind the Drunken Space Farer Kitsune knocks on the back delivery door and awaits for someone to come and sign for the shipment. Moments later a stout man rather plain looking but obvious to anyone he was a worker at the bar. "Delivery" "Great we were just about to run out. Let me c...

Location: Greenleaf, Drunken Spacefarer Ellie cast a questioning look at Low, "What's he on about old man?" She shifted her weight anxiously, she knew Jane was short on time, and wanted to get help to her as quickly as she could, even if that help was in the form of Ian Graham. He nodded ...

Location: Greenleaf, Drunken Spacefarer "Ellie? Ellie McKee?" For the first time, Ellie's attention shifted to the guy sitting next to Ian at the bar. It took her a second to register, but he seemed familiar. She cocked her head a bit to the side and said, "Low? Is it really you? Did...

Location: Greenleaf, Drunken Spacefarer Lows eyebrow had risen, that voice was familiar. He'd not heard it for a spell. Slowly he turned in his seat until he could see her. "By the Maker, tis a ghost!" he said then abruptly turned around and downed the last of his drink. He closed his eye...

Location: Greenleaf, Drunken Spacefarer Low now days seemed to have every excuse under the sun to get a taste of the good life, he tossed a napkin down on his plate and shoved it forward. "You know, for a bar this is mighty good stuff." he said regarding the empty plate. He picked up the ...

Location: Jenny Wren, Cargo Hold Ellie climbed into the driver seat of the skiff and waited while Teddy opened the bay door and climbed into the back seat. She turned on the engine and rolled out of the ship, squinting at the sudden change in light levels. The docks on Greenleaf were nowhere near a...

"Anything for you Ellie dear." Taking the note from her. Delivering the Whiskey was strait forward enough, but the Package pick up seemed a little to shady for his liking. The former cop in him said he didn't like it and he tried to convince him self "if I don't open it and stick to ...

Location: Greenleaf, Drunken Spacefarer, Back room Liam nodded, "I do not intend on sitting idle while we wait." he slowly rose to his feet. "If my reapers come, I'll be waiting in the open." he said as he grabbed his Buscadero, strapping it about his waist. "Besides, I'm s...

Location: Greenleaf, back room of the Drunken Spacefarer With a small shrug he answered, "It's not my ship or my decision. I can see if I can get you an introduction to the ship's captain, but getting a job with the crew will be up to you. I've got enough convincing of my own to do I suspect.&...

Location: Greenleaf, back room of the Drunken Spacefarer He held a drink out to Low, "What about you, dare I ask how you got a bullet through the shoulder?" Low shrugged and cringed for his efforts. "A job!" he took the offered drink. "See I was protection detail for cargo ...

Fiona nodded, still shaking, and retrieved a towel. She handed it to the captain. She opened her mouth to say something, anything meaningful - maybe to apologize for not getting to Jane in time.

Location: Jenny Wren, Cargo Hold "Timmy!" She motioned for him to join them down on the cargo hold floor level. As she waited for him to get there she responded to Kitsune's revelation that he had a couple more of the goons tied up in his cabin, "Get rid of them. Leave them tied up a...

Location: Jenny Wren, top of the spiral staircase Ellie tried to peer down the spiral staircase, but it was much too dark to see anything. She backtracked a bit to the galley and dug through a drawer to locate a flashlight she knew was in there. She crept back over to the staircase without turning ...

A bit of a back track: Fiona said, "And people think I'm the one escaped from the bughouse!" Fiona screamed at him, jerking backwards as Timothy tried to pat her on the head. "What's the matter with you?" Timmy looks at Fiona oddly while he puts on a shirt that he found under hi...

Location: Jenny Wren, upper level Fiona lasted about two minutes with the frying pan before she became convinced she was well and truly crazy for continuing to carry it around. She pulled open a panel on the wall, probably meant to hold supplies, and shoved the pan inside. Hearing noise and feeling...
