[h2]Velia & Acting-Captain Divaldo[/h2]

"You sure you need that?" Velia asked him with a raised eyebrow, though there was an amused smirk forming as well and she didn't actually put up any resistance to stepping onto the scales... 126 lb including her clothes, "I don't think I'm going to overload the shuttle!" she declared.

She stepped back, waiting patiently for everyone to be done, giving Ren a slight shake of the head, "Nothing new.  It's a planet, nobody is talking to us.  Hopefully they will when we knock on the door."

"All right!" she declared, clapping her hands together the moment the last one of the group stepped off the scales, "Time to get down to the planet!  I have to admit, I'm a little excited!  We are now in your capable hands, Captain Lockman!"

As the shuttle prepped to leave they were greeted by a snort through the communicator, "[i]I see that that featherbrained girl has abandoned the communications post and left nobody here to actually run the ship.[/i]"  Divaldo had somehow taken charge, "[i]Urgh... I suppose I shall manage on my own.  It is the burden of my station to have command thrust upon me... I suppose I should try to say something inspiring. Do try not to die down there, but if you do, know it was in service to your Gloriont.[/i]"

"Hey!  I'm helping you slimy bullfrog!" Velia snapped, though without actually having the microphone, there was no way for Divaldo to actually hear her frustration.
