@FortunesFaded I still think waiting for the others would be respectful, but thanks for popping in and saying something. Good luck with your "hell week".

@The1Rolling1Boy@CrazyShadowy I'm only saying because some of the posts contain content that they should be able to react to and get involved in, but they aren't getting a chance. I guess if whatever you're doing is completely separated from their characters it's not that big of a deal, but matching pace with some of the slower posters is still courteous. :)

Guys I'd wait for FF, Anastasia, and Kaiachi before making any more posts.

@CrazyShadowy Though I appreciate you asking me, my approval certainly isn't necessary. I'd say they're good though. :)

@The1Rolling1Boy Again, not necessary, though I appreciate you taking my advice.

Teamwork really is a swell thing, yeah?

@The1Rolling1Boy You didn't offer any descriptive words hinting that it was a joke. I'd suggest adding something like "she said jokingly" or " she said with a kidding tone to her voice" in the future, something like that.

@The1Rolling1Boy Same for you, Rolling, no way would Gera actually lash someone for something so minor. But realistically, twenty lashings meant to scar would bring most to tears or worse.

@CrazyShadowy You could just change it to trying to stand up for her?

@CrazyShadowy Heads up if you think it's worth editing, otherwise Jethard might be made to appear quite the fool; The lashing thing was a joke, however morbid it may be.

Gera Zsoldos - Pilot

Gera couldn’t contain himself any longer, and can you blame him? He burst into laughter, like that of a jackal. It was cruel and bemused and joyful all at once. After a few moments that seemed to drag on far longer than they should have, Gera drew himself together. “Miora, lovely captain, it appears you’ve managed to offend our eccentric friend here,” He began, his voiced laced with mocking condescension. “Should you apologize? However… refusing to tie her shoes, no matter how silly, declining to follow orders is paramount to insubordination! I say… twenty lashings.”

Here now, Gera leaned forward toward Marie, bending low so their eyes were level and only a few inches apart. “I’d just walk away from this, Plush. You know you can’t win here.” He glanced at Miora for a brief moment, making eye contact and smirking before looking back at Marie. “Our brave pilot is not someone to be trifled with, and I dare say together we shall form quite a dynamic duo. Really now, stay on our side or stay out of our way.” By the end of his spiel, all previous traces of amusement were gone from Gera’s voice, and he seemed quite serious. He leaned back. “This isn’t a threat, just a friendly warning.” Yet, despite saying this, danger did seem to glint in Gera’s eyes, if only for a split second.

Anton Kyznetsov - Doctor

Anton glanced down at the hand still clasped around his, his face contorting into worried amusement. He gently extricated his hand from Erin’s and looked at her curiously, thought not unkindly, before turning his attention to the newest arrival. He cleared his throat. “I’m sure neither of you meant any offense.” Anton then offered his hand to Elizabeth. “It’s a pleasure to make both of your acquaintances. Liz, I’d assume that you would be the representative sent by the Coalition?” She certainly looked the part, with her intelligent, analytical eyes and self assured smirk. Anton wondered what agenda she was pushing, cozying up to Erin, or if she even had one at all. All of these bureaucrats were an incredibly mixed bag.

Royland Asterwick - Corporal

Royland saw John approaching him and moved forward to meet the man halfway, relaxing his expression in the process. Upon receiving a smile and a few kind words that seemed to have some amount of weight to them, Royland returned the inviting countenance with a smile of his own. The two seemed to be getting along all right. Good omen. As long as Royland could count on John, John could count on him. “I’m rather well versed in space travel,” He said easily. “In fact, I’ve been frequenting the lab since it’s conception.” Royland frowned. “My entire family is aboard that station. We’ll get to the bottom of all this though, I’m sure.” At least, Royland hoped that they would. What was that he was feeling? Doubt? Irrational doubt... no doubt about it. Still a bad omen.

Bit of a goof on my part, Royland was meant to be 25, not 30, I edited his app accordingly. Otherwise, parts of his backstory don't make much sense.

In other news, post is nearly prepared. Formatting it so it looks all nice and pretty right now.

@FortunesFaded Will I be receiving a dossier for Royland?

I'm waiting for Kaiachi and Anastasia to post before making my next post, for everyone's information. Then I'll be able to write up sufficient paragraphs for each character of mine.

Not going to mention them because this isn't meant to rush them, everyone should take their time. Just being proactive.
