Marty was taken by surprise as gusts of warm wind filled the room, blowing his hair back slightly. He looked almost better than before. He laughed at the ruined state of his colleagues. His laugh was counteracted with a silent groan as Nexus applied fridge magnets to Ramona's blouse. He screwed his eyes shut before anyone would notice him. Truly, it was a disappointment. After ousting after Ramona for years, that is. Somehow, when he was preparing to tell her how he felt he always ended up chickening out, leaving his feelings ambiguous.

He opened his eyes at the familiar sound of Luci's voice, giving a dorky salute. At the entrance of the new doctor on the ship, he sat up again, debating the idea of announcing who she was to those who didn't know her. It would probably take too much time. He could always incorporate it into his meeting speech. He was about to slump back into his seat when Mr Rolands came striding in. Marty chuckled at his request for everyone to sit down.

[colour=teal]"You took your sweet time getting here, Ryan. No need to explain, nobody died."[/colour] He shot Rolands a half smile before rising out of his chair, flicking out the lights and setting up a holo-projector. Sure, not everybody was there, but he had been waiting long enough, and he had their mission written on a slideshow that was beaming onto the back of the room. [colour=teal]"Ladies, gentlemen and Luci. It is time we begin our meeting. Please, be seated. There have been recent reports of a group of rouge Titchua raiding IOSE ships."

"Seems normal enough, right? Wrong! Apparently they're holding some imposrtant dignitaries hostage. They were transporting something rather important that the Admiral didn't tell me about. The dick. So, we're flying off to the Dragontooth Nebula, and looking for a ship. I'll expect everyone to be on full alert. Of course, this mission is dangerous, but now we have our new doctor, Miss Wolfe, it should be a bit less dangerous."[/colour] He pointed vaugely at Wolfe, shooting her a killer smile, before turning back to his precious slide show. [colour=teal]"Welcome to the fold, [i]carissimo[/i]."[/colour] He had an odd tendency to refer to people with overly affectionate nicknames. [colour=teal]"Don't really think you need to know more than that. Any questions?"[/colour] He sat down in his chair, vaguely scanning the room. No doubt Rolands would contribute some information that was totally irrelevant, like 'They're located in the upper sector of the Nebula'. Heaven knows why the Admiral thought he was useful.
