XD Oh all good, I'm cool with IC development and such, he's a quiet dude who'll prolly just chill in the corner anyway
Apologies for lateness--got a bit sick ^-^'

I'll be posting with Eddy tomorrow to awkwardly stand about wondering whether Lucy is too busy to talk to XD
Six turned towards her as she did him, matching the posture enough to catch what she said, though barely. He hadn't been around long enough to get a feel for what the general opinion of the captain was yet--but this gave him an idea. Jackdaw was correct, and he, quite frankly, shared the opinion, though he could tell he oughtn't voice it. He hadn't gotten to know the man yet, had no loyalties here to anyone but himself past simply working with them, and though he had no intention of betraying them or letting them go down, he also knew some things simply weren't salvageable, and that Varus knew the risks when he stepped on board.

He turned again, matching her earlier position, facing out towards the direction Taerys had run in, and nodded. "You're right." It sounded to those who'd hear it like an acceptance of a placation, a shake off of the earlier worries--but Jackdaw could catch the meaning, catch his agreement to her silent admission.
Six followed Jackdaw's gaze, eyes darting for the feline's form, accepting the soldier's words on Taerys, but the second sentence made him turn.

"Think this is something that can just be patched up?" he asked, body turning to look over the broken captain and the two crewmembers tasked with his care. "Doesn't look like he'll be in moving shape for a while yet." The words were ... gentle, wasn't quite the right term, but she hadn't taken his previous suggestion kindly, and he was far more aware of the thin ice he was on now. Suggesting, perhaps? They were softer, less authoritarian, almost more simple questioning Jackdaw's opinion as though he were asking for another detail on a battle plan--were just his tone taken, it might not even seem like a question to her orders.
Six chewed a lip thoughtfully in his helmet, and cocked his head slightly. "How long can we spare waiting on her?"

Were Hark with him he'd offer to just go hunt the girl down--but right now, they were pretty tightly packed. Losing one was better than losing two, after all, and he could communicate with them about as well as Taerys could. Hay, Rennac, and Varus were all useless, at least for the moment, when it came to defense, and Jack and Ryder couldn't take care of three people, one of whom might be mortally injured, just on their own.

But then, he was new, and probably not viewed as necessary. Rennac did have big talk earlier about his self-care abilities, and Ryder was big enough to just act as a shield if it really came down to it.
Six stepped up alongside Jackdaw, leaving the others to tend to Varus as they would. "She left before you and Rennac did, no word since then. I don't know how fast she moves, or how far from the colony we are. Have you got an estimate?" Jackdaw still seemed the authority here, at least to him, and he was still too new to really know what the right protocol would be here--whether or not she'd been gone long enough to warrant searching, whether or not they should even be concerned about that yet.
Six slowed as he heard the other group catching up, and turned to face them, stepping towards the lot. Varus seemed to be in one piece, though not exactly of excellent condition. Ryder was carrying him, so Six moved to approach Jack, and though it wasn't necessary, offered what he could.

"Taerys is still ahead--no word yet. Know how his condition is?" He knew none of them were medics, so doubted she had much more than "bad," but figured it was worth asking.

Another instance Hark would have been useful--Jack didn't have much of the supplies and he knew, with his partner, they could have gathered much more of it.
Ey Ren, are you planning on having the message thing be successful? I mean the communications were all cut I thought, and Teeth and Dres are kinda on pause.
He could be like a Hugh Jackman that just hasn't evolved into Hugh Jackman yet
Six turned to face him--no expression could be seen beneath the mask, but his hands lifted in an apologetic gesture. He kept walking, backing up--probably not a smart move, but he didn't have too terribly much to say. "Oh, I understand completely--were it not for the crash, you'd be ... well, maybe not safe, but safe-er on a ship right now. You're hurt and scared, it's a completely natural state to be in." He smoothly turned on his heal, stride not breaking, and continued leading the pilot forward. "We'll catch up to Taerys, and I'll bet Jackdaw and her team are just behind us."
