0006 Rumbles on Rangent

[Tiglath]

Sigrún casually enquires of Zaki "Are there any traders that specialize in ship security, self defence that kind of... Where can I buy guns?"

One of the coolest movies ever made

Tank: So what do you need? Besides a miracle.

Neo: Guns. Lots of guns.

[Eris]

Sigrún replies "Sword Worlds directly" she follows an acknowledging nod to "Bella" with a very "alpha" handshake "Isabella Devon, Korvettenkapitän Sigrún Völsung. Rooms for seven of my crew please. We will take whatever rooms you have on Olga's recommendation. I will share with Major Shursiia, if that's possible. Løytnant Larsson is my First Officer and Quartermaster. He will deal with financial matters, thank you".

"Welcome to you Kapitan and to your crew." says Bella returning Sigrun's handshake firmly, "Certainly, we will accommodate your requirements." She pulls keycards from a drawer and says to Donovan, "I've got 6 open rooms on level 3. Do you want them all and for how many cycles? Um, nights is the grounder term."

OOC: This is all going to go into Expenses on Rangent so don't worry about exact numbers here, but using the Cepheus Charts it's Cr50 per day per person for Ordinary Living Expenses, plus another 50 because you're on a Habitat and a bit more for "extra entertaining." I'm doing 6 days for 7 people so Cr4,200 + 300 total Cr4,500 unless you tell me different.

Karcsi gets a approximate time on the fueling process, hes looking forward to a bit of spending money.

Karcis sets up for fueling, but it won't happen until Sim and CRR is finished painting, swapping out the transponder and putting in the false turret. That's going to take 5 to 6 days. As soon as Sim is finished with the work the refueling and restocking will happen and the ship will be ready to fly. Your room and board is being covered by the Ship's Company (as part of the Cr4,500, but if you want spending money of your own then well are you getting paid?

Perhaps someone should bring up pay, huh? Are you getting a monthly payout from the Ship's Company? And how much is that?

[Eris]

Sigrún casually enquires of Zaki "Are there any traders that specialize in ship security, self defence that kind of... Where can I buy guns?"

Zaki look through the businesses doesn't turn up any "gun shops", on Jackson Hole. However, there are several "general stores" scattered around the Habitat and there are civilian style weapons for sale in several of them...a limited selection though. Shotguns, Auto pistols, Revolvers, Snub Revolvers (but not auto), Accelerator Rifles, Laser Pistols (but not rifles), and Stunners are available, but nothing else in the way of fire arms in any of the Stores. Melee weapons are similarly limited to Daggers, Axes (boarding type), and Stun Prods in the Stores.

If you're looking for anything else, I'll need a Very Difficult (10+) Streetwise roll from someone...decide wisely as only one of you gets to roll this. And even if you make the roll you might not find anything else...

OOC As far as "individual liquid assets" go Sigrún issues everyone with "handfulls" of 100Cr chips (from our earlier trade). Can I get an "Arrrr!" here? Any larger purchase can be charged to the ship in the hope that it passes the "Quibbling Quomittee" (committee didn't alliterize...).

Well in that case Karcsi is heading to the bar they mentioned, he was handed a large handful of 100 cr coins earlier.

He will order a synth meat dish, hot pot if available and drink a ale slowly, he does not want to drink heavily without his crew around.

Comm: "Hey crew no fueling until after the work, makes sense, I am going to get one ale up on you."

In her role as Kapitän Sigrún orders four or five (per availability) side by side sporting shotguns from local outlets together with 200 rounds of "sporting" buckshot.

She discretely yet apparently cryptically informs Donovan "I made some weapons purchases for the ship - sporting shotguns. I'll have them delivered aboard - they're no use as they are".

Comm: "Hey crew no fueling until after the work, makes sense, I am going to get one ale up on you."

Sigrún comms Karcsi back "I will see you there blade brother. Don't drink all the ale!"

Sigrún accepts this as a good indication of a more peaceful area and lets sleeping dogs lie.

"Work first," Zaki says. "We need to refuel and provision the ship, including changing the life support consumables."

Flighty takes his 'pay' and grins, "Thanks, Cap'n."

Then he makes a note to get a pay schedule instituted. It isn't like they're overflowing with money and can afford to ignore that to let everyone draw from the till.

Sigrún gives Zaki a warm smile and says "Well hurry up and make the "life support consumables" bend to my Kapitän's iron will. I have no idea how to do that - it's why I had a Quartermaster!" She adds "Karcsi says fuel has to happen after the shipyard work and he's already in the ale house! Surely provisioning can wait until the work is at least someway done? Karcsi is ferocious - he will feast and drink so nothing remains for us laggards!"

[helvorn]

Donovan negotiates the rates for the stay at the boardinghouse for six days. He puts down five Cr100 chips as an earnest deposit with the promise to pay in full tomorrow.

When Sigrun mentions shotguns Donovan nods. "Good idea where we are going. I'm sure we can customize them."

He looks at the others. "I owe a few drinks and I hate to be called cheap. Let's head over before Karsci drinks all the booze."

Zaki rolls her eyes, grabs each of them by an arm, and starts off, guided by her HUD map.

[Tiglath]

When Sigrun mentions shotguns Donovan nods. "Good idea where we are going. I'm sure we can customize them."

Sigrún laughs "Now there's my lost shield brother from Gram - he knows "boarding pistols"!" She links arms and laughs again "We surely can not fail to find the feast hall for we are guided by the All Father's avatar". Squeezing Zaki's arm she asks happily "So, tonight are you Huginn or Muninn... or both?"

Zaki focuses for a moment, and then she snorts and laughs. "Well, I can tell we're close to the Sword Worlds just by how many hits I got on that query. I suppose it's accurate enough, since I deliver information."

Donovan returns the laugh. He covers one eye and scowls dramatically. "Bring me my feast hall and my ale! Layout the banquet without stint!"

[ateno]

Having finished his hotpot, Karcsi orders a meat cheese and bread spread and a few bottles of mead and empty glasses.

He hands the waitstaff 3 coins, hoping that is enough and says, "I bet there will be more, everyone has their own tastes."

Sigrún throws the door of Pepe's Bar wide (at least figuratively) and spotting Karcsi shouts (why, yes, she does... ) "Ho Spjótbróðir!"* She "makes way" through the bar towing Zaki (offhanded) in her wake to grasp Karcsi's arm in the warrior's grip only breaking her grasp on Zaki's hand to clap him soundly on the shoulder. She somewhat redundantly states "Zaki is here!" then scans the bar "Flighty and Donovan also!"

She grins, waves the waitstaff over, switching back to Karcsi she then feigns alarm "Hei, "Bear Shirt", did you leave us any ale? Tell me there is something left here other than the "green drink" that Imperial nobles favour. I won a bottle once - it gives a very bad hangover".

(OOC: * Swordy Trans = Spear Brother

And now in the bar the "man mountain" has a Swordy gal pal. Careful about spilling those beers hombre!

Eris knows if he leaves unsupervised we get up to no good...

Now he'll have to ambush us on the way back from the pub! ).

[ateno]

Karcsi stands, with a wide grin.

"I posted several senteries of what the locals call mead. I do not know much of it, but I was waiting for you to open a bottle. Open one and try it."

Karcsi hands a litre bottle of mead to everyone one and a clean empty glass.

"I hope the foods I bought is ample and acceptable."
