Peace Across (More) Worlds

She kept what she went to get for herself as she went inside, Sion was a bit picking in too many people or things handling stuff sometimes. She wouldn't mind having it being looked that for anything illegal, she was a bit curious to see what was all there.  After finishing cleaning up she hoped enough time had passed for them to take off.  She checked on Xerxan to see how things were coming in that regard.

As she waited she got a message from Lina and veronica.  They asked if Xerxan's route permits them time to pick them up.  They wanted to head back to Lina's and spend some time there, mostly since Lina had work to do but the happy couple still wanted to be together and Lina was able to get Veronica extended time away from work.  Otherwise Lina could do her mega-teleportation spell, however she'd need a lot of recovery time and medicate attention for a couple days or so to get her strength back given the intergalactic distance between the two places.  That would mean Anya having to message home to tell her team to get ready for the sudden arrival, though she didn't know if they had the time to get the two horny love birds to give them a save trip.  Anya smirked when she saw the message accidentally included a photo of the two in bed as Veronica was groping one of Lina's breasts as well as licking the side of Lina's lips.

The AI mentions when she looks at the packaging and explains how she could tell her purchases were still in the original packaging and says also " they are always hiring Xerxan because of his reputation as a honest pilot." The AI also showed her where she can store the purchases and not to worry that he wont take off till she is finished. By the time she finished her shower she could feel the hum of the ships engines in take off prep which he would be waiting if she asked the AI to hold off on the astronavigation work till she asked about Lina and Veronica. He would be siting in the pilot seat checking for any new messages for additional pick ups from the station as he has had stuff like this happen before. When she asks about picking up Lina and Veronica he would say " we can easily manage it" as he shows her the true time table which left plenty of time to make the stop. The take off was very smooth, but Anya could tell it wouldn't of been fun if she was still in the shower. When the calculation was done finish along with them being at the right distance to make the first jump to pick up the couple which went smoothly. He would then get up to head to set up the guest cabin for the pair incase they wanted to be alone which he had the rooms sound dampened for privacy except some blood would set off an alarm. When they arrived he would await docking clearance then wait for them to board before making the final jump preps and jump home.

Both Lina and Veronica were grateful for the lift. Even though Lina managed to make the long distance trip before, with how draining it was Lina didn't want to go through it again if she could, plus who knows what effects if any it would have had on Veronica. They did get a little frisky with each other, but nothing to the point where they would end up taking their pants off.

Before arriving home, Anya reminded Xerxan of the promised spacewalk she could do. She behaved and she didn't want him to forget about before they got too close to home to do it. "Are we able to make a stop for it soon? All this extra waiting is hard." She bounces on the spot a little bit while saying that last part, looking very eager.

He would say to Lina and Veronica when they get onboard that he always kept plenty of time in reserve for situations like this to avoid panic schedule adjustments. While they were on the jump home he would make sure all the lifeline systems for her spacewalk were operating at the efficiency that he would feel comfortable with for an attempt of his own which reached that standards. The AI would offer to help her demonstrate how to put on the space suit for her space walk saying if Lina and Veronica wanted there would be time for them to have a turn also. When they arrived in system he would park the ship where it wouldn't be seem as they were up to no good and let the Space traffic controllers know they were doing a space walk. The AI if the offer was used Anya would have no trouble getting ready for her walk. When the passenger space walks were done he would resume the flight allowing the ship to be scanned with transmitting his updated manifest of all the cargo and passengers so no problems come up for landing clearance. The landing would be smooth as he signaled the moving truck he had reserved for moving all of Anya's purchases to her clinic which was a good size with plenty of room for everything.

Lina was fine, unless if Veronica wanted to go for one then she would do so as well, but she's done it before so while the thought was tempting she didn't feel as excited at the thought of as Anya was. When was time to go for it Anya was more than ready. While she knew what to expect before going out, she look a little scared at when she stepped outside the ship and felt nothing underneath her feet. She held up for a moment before continuing. She knew everything was fine and this was a new experience for her.

When she got out there she looked at the space that was around her in amazement. As she was enjoying herself a thought hit her. With all that was around here at the moment, and everywhere she has been, she felt incredibly small. Out here she was nothing more than a tiny little spec in the universe. While it didn't make her feel bad it gave her a new appreicating for everything. She remained in thought for a moment longer before resuming her fun...until it was time to head back inside.

When the helmet was taken off her she a look of ample satisfaction, similar to that after the first time Lina and Veronica knocked boots, but obviously for different reasons. She was glad that this was able to happen, and was something she would never forget. The only thing that would have made that better was if she had someone special to share that moment with, but other than that she feeling pretty good.

Sion was near by when the ship was preparing for landing. He decided to take a moment and see how things were with those inside. He didn't expect to See Lina and Veronica come out, though he was glad to see them. When Anya comes up he sees the look on her face, still as it was when she came inside the ship after the spacewalk. He wondered what put her in a good mood. Did she get through to Xerxan? He didn't know or how to bring up such a question. When he sees Xerxan and asks him how things went and if the two unexpected passengers caused any problems, knowing what kind of relationship the ladies had, thoug he he had a feeling things were fine. After getting any info from Xer, or if he had any questions for him, Sion asked him about Anya. "If you don't mind me asking, anything happen between you and Anya while you were gone? She looked happy coming off the ship there, a little bit too happy if you ask me." He grinned before adding "Any further feelings confessed?" He was not aware of Daisuke arranging for Anya to walk in space if she wanted, which if he was informed of it that would explain the the expression Anya was displaying, though he still wondered if things between them would go anywhere.

Xerxan would be monitoring her air tanks incase she lost track of time enjoying her space walk or any other ships using this area as a smuggler entry point. When it was time to bring her in he would call her comlink when he was preparing to reel her in so she wouldn't struggle and break her lifeline during the return trip inside. When she is safely in the ship he would secure the hatch then move to the cockpit to bring the ship into position to land in his spot smoothly then open the ramp so everyone can disembark. He would start to bring to organize the truck for him to driver her purchases to her clinic so when Sion asks him how things went he will say " I think Diasuke arranged for Anya to have a space walk which I managed to set the equipment." He would say " I think she enjoyed the trip and visiting the station except we had a situation when discovered some drugs hidden in the shell of some equipment in the hanger." While he gives the recap it was obvious nothing happened between them along with Lina and Veronica were one of those surprise pick ups that he tries to make time for during his runs.

While it was good that Anya was able to have some fun, Sion felt a bit disappointed that nothing really happened between the two and he wondered what it might take for anything to happen. He knew how Anya felt, and even though from the looks of things Anya looked fine Sion felt like he wanted to do something to help get a spark in Xerxan going, but he wasn’t sure what to do.

“Now that you’re back anything else going on with you today?” he asked him.

He would say right away " I have to finish the paperwork for this run send a update to Veldaris about the modification and hope she was told ahead of time otherwise I may have to go into hiding." He will add " I tried to surprise her with a modification to improve her ship and was stuck to the wall by her deadly accurate shots then left there." He will finish with "after the paperwork is filled out then sent I was going to drop all of Anya's medical purchases at her clinic which I am aware will probably be making a lot more trips to supply the other clinics and hospitals." He allows Sion to check out as much of the cargo as he wishes to letting him see Anya got her hands some top medical tech which will easily make her rivals jealous.

“Well before you do that I do want to talk with you, away from everything if possible.” Even though it wasn’t something that involved him directly he thought of both Anya and Xerxan and, like his wife, wanted to try to make things work between them. He wasn’t sure how though and felt maybe talking with him privately about it might help matters. While he didn’t want to come on too strongly he also wanted to see what it might take to get Xerxan to feel even a fraction of the emotions that Anya is evening, even though he has a feeling that the guy isn’t use to stuff like that at all.

Xerxan will say " the paperwork I need to finish for the shipping boards can't wait, but wont take long to fill out being I have only to fill in what I brought to the planet the rest is already filled in." He will add " we can talk aboard the ship and if you are thirsty I can prepare something to drink if you are thirsty while we talk and I finish the paperwork." If Sion accepts the offer he will lead him onboard to the lounge area where the tablet which he does the paperwork on is waiting for him to finish off with the AI projecting itself as a female drow in crew coveralls giving Sion a list of different fruit juices he can request saying " the captain prefers these type of drinks". He would quickly copy the stuff from his wrist computer to the paperwork which doesn't take surprisingly too long with only stopping to get their drinks if Sion requested something to drink.
