Now back in the dining area we see a table covered in pancakes, fresh fruit, eggs, and bacon. The room is very loud considering that all known occupants of the ship minus the amber eyed ravenette, and the blond pilot lamenting that he was stuck flying the ship instead of eating the very tasty smelling food wafting up from down the hall, were sitting at the table.
N I'm famished
P this is amazing
Y It is great
L It's not much, just what I had at the abbey, figured I should take what I could with me.
W It's so very nice of you to share it with us
L It wouldn't keep
P I'll take this up to Jaune no point in him being distracted by the smells and somehow crashing the Beacon
L they're just not the same when dehydrated and processed for travel.
D can I get the bacon
L the most important thing is the spices, a person can live on prepackaged goods for a lifetime if they have enough cinnamon. Captain do you mind if we say grace
Y only if you say it out loud
As the rest of table bows their heads, and go quiet for a minute the captain keeps right on eating.
W so, does it happen often, Atlas ordering your ship around, telling you what to do
Y That's what they're for aren't they, sure fought hard enough to make it that way
D well it nice if the supplies are going to help the people
N we're just glad to be helping people
D I here tell that some of the smaller moons are in rough shape, bad food resources and hard living
P well most is exaggerated a lot of it isn't, all those new planets just like the major worlds are as close to Remnant that was as we can get them, air, water, arable soil, so on and so forth, but
Y once the Auraforming is done, Atlas will drop settlers on there with not much more than a couple months supplies, and the clothes on their backs. Most make it but some have more trouble than they were ready for
W then I guess it good, that we're helping
R you're a healer, right
W oh please don't use that archaic term, yes I do heal with use of my semblance and dust but I still went through medical school and was a trauma surgeon on mantle
Y long way from here, Ain't it
R you seem so young to have become a doctor already
W you seem awful young to be a ships mechanic
R not really sis is only two and a half years older and she's captain. I have always had a way with machines, weapons, ships, anything mechanical really.
L how fortunate for you
R not like being a doctor and fixing people that's super important compared to me just keeping a ship running
N Our little rose here probably wishes you were a love doctor, help her find the person for her life
Y Nora come on that's my sister your speaking to and this kind of talk is not what I pay you for
N O that's where we are going just because are Caps having kitten trouble we aren't allowed to talk about love and the like, okay I'll just head to my quarters then got to be someone there willing to have some fun, third on the left preacher if you want to talk
W what is she payed for
Y what?
W I was wondering what her job is on the ship
Y public relations

In the ambassadors shuttle we see are lady of the night start her nightly cleansing ritual, one of the first steps being taking of her bow and then giving her body a good scrub. She is interrupted in this process by a knock on her shuttle's hatch, figuring she might be able to catch her captain speechless, she welcomes them in.
B come in, it's open
L if I'm interrupting something
B not at all I was wondering when you would come
L couldn't say the same, wondering why you didn't come to dinner, cap said you would be there and told me to open this just for you.
Getting up she pulls her black vest back over herself and stands to face the visitor.
B so you here to lecture me on the evils of my trade, and is that fish I smell
L Why yes, it is cap said you are a big fan of the stuff and I think I could guess why, if you did want a lecture, sorry to say but I'm not much of talker, but I'm sure I could dredge something up from my memories
Realizing what he meant about the fish, and noticing where his vision is focused, she quickly turns around and starts reaching around for her bow, slightly worried she stammers out the answer to the earlier question about lectures.
B no I'll think I'll pass on that but the food is greatly appreciated
L I was surprised at her concern
B for a lowly whore, or a dirty Faunus
L it was not right for him to say that, and I have never held ill will towards yours or any people
B well that's reassuring, and don't worry I have called her much worse, is suspect her plan was to mess with you more than me
L she does not seem terribly keen on making new friends, but she does seem very protective of her crew, which is very odd
B why are you so fixated on her
L because she is something of a mystery, probably a veteran of the war even at such a young age, manages to own her own ship and have complete loyalty of her crew, yet from what I can tell does some of the not so clean work out there but never anything over the line she is not willing to cross without good reason, and here she is delivering supplies for the enemies she once fought with her life against. Why are so infatuated with her.
B because so few women are ever what is says on the cover, and I like me a good book xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Now in the captain's cabin we see her finished with the facilities and wash her hands in the midst of drying them, she is interrupted by the intercom.
J Yang you might want to come to the bridge
After climbing the ladder out of her room and coming into the bridge.
Y what do you got
J a signal someone went on the net and hailed the nearest Atlas cruiser
Y tell me you were able to scramble it
J I did what you taught me but I don't know how much got out, Atlas got a line on us guaranteed
Y Shízài kěhèn*
J captain we have a rat on board
