Galaxy's Edge Space Bar (archive)

[Breekan1]

Breekan glances over, notes the look on Corliss's face. "Don't beat yourself up too badly, it was an honest mistake. I should have known better than to whip out something that volatile anyway." He frowns. "Really, this stuff's not made for normal people to be using it."

[Kit Cloudkicker]

Shal suddenly swipes the plunger from Ossanlin, and lunges toward Alic. She presses her ear to Alic's torso for just a moment, then stabs the plunger into the area where she had been listening. She depresses it, then removes the plunger, straightens up, and replaces it in Ossanlin's hand. She stands in front of him, and glares at him in silence.

[Chad32]

"Wow, that was...rather fast." Temrash said.

[Kit Cloudkicker]

When Keirdan sees Mike approaching, he stops crying, and slips down off of the stool, landing hard on his bottom. He holds his and happily pets the cat.

[Luke Skywalker (Ossanlin)]

*Ossanlin is too busy immobilizing Alic and worrying about her new fit of unconsciousness to stop Shal from what she's doing.*  <Hey...wha...Shal wait!!>  *He sees the hypo enter Alic's body and prays that Shal had not hit an artery on the way to the heart...he hopes she didn't go too far or hit one of Alic's aortas...his look turns to worry as the hypo is placed back into his hand.*  <I hope Crayak gave you knowledge of Andalite physiology with the other stuff...because that could kill her if you didn't hit just the right spot...>

*Ossanlin turns his attention back to Alic, slowly unwrapping his tail and extricating her blade from his flesh.  He continues to mop Alic's forehead with the wet cloth though, hoping she would come around.*

[Kit Cloudkicker]

Still staring at Ossy, Shal grits her teeth, her eyes starting to burn a bit darker.

[Alic]

Shal, thankfully, had put the needle right into one of her hearts. Whether or not she did it because she had the skill, or just luck, it had worked and the fire that was going on inside of Alic quickly faded. Her skin felt slightly cooler to the touch thanks to whatever was injected into her.
<Huhh..>  Her eyes fluttered open for just a second, and closed again.

[Luke Skywalker (Ossanlin)]

*Ossanlin watches as Alic comes to for a moment and then falls back to unconsciousness...b ut he notices that she's visibly more relaxed and her unconsciousness is more like sleep now.  He lays the back of a hand against her cheek and her skin has cooled greatly.*  <Looks like it's working.  Jess, I'm sorry....I shouldn't have said that.  You must've known what you were doing, you wouldn't have risked Alic's life.>  *he looks over his shoulder making contact with his main eyes.*  <I'm sorry.  I was stressed and lost my cool.  Thank you for helping...you probably just saved her life.>

*Ossanlin turns his main eyes back on Alic, smiling a bit with his eyes.*  <Thanks for the meds Breek, and thanks Temrash and Corliss too.  I think she's going to be okay now.>  *He loosens his grip on Alic's head and brushes her cheek again with the back of a hand.*  <You'll be okay now Alic.>

[Breekan1]

"Cripes," Breek exhales as he takes his seat, near Keirdan. He grins at Shal. "You pick up some nifty things in other people's heads, huh?" His look shifts to one of greater concern. "Did your eyes change again?"

[Chad32]

Upon hearing that Alic was getting better, Temrash got up and made his way to his prior seat. Jagill was still uncomfortable, and truth be told, Temrash didn't care for excessive contact with Andalites either. He ordered some ice water to drink, as he didn't feel like taking alchohol anymore.

"We should start planning to leave." He said to his new allies in general. "The hunter is still here, as his ship won't be flight capable for a while."

[Alic]

Alic groaned and for a moment forgot what had happened. Why was she on the floor? Maybe the hunter had come.. But then she remembered the burning, and was relieved that it didn't hurt anymore. <I'm ok guys...> She said weakly, catching Ossanlin's hand with hers. She queezed his hand lightly and opened her eyes to smile. They were back to normal.
<Wow.. Can I have some water?> Alic was still quite dizzy, but she could have pranced in joy that the fire was out. <Thank you all.> She brought her legs up underneath her so she wasn't lrying flat on the ground, her back hurt from being there for so long, it wasn't the most comfortable position. She put her hands back into Ossanlin's.
<Can I not do that again? I'm taking the tyenol next time.>

[Kit Cloudkicker]

Shal squeezes her eyes shut, and takes a few slow, deep breaths. When she opens her eyes, she turns on her heel, and walks back to the bar, slumping into a seat next to Breekan. She immediately closes them again, and begins to rub them - hard.

[Myitt]

Corliss nods at Breekan.  "I know, mate, I won't lose sleep," he says softly.  "I just feel bad, that's all."  He watches the procedure on Alic with more curiosity than anything else, and when she appears to be recovering he pats her on a thin purple shoulder.  "I'm glad you're alright, Alic."

"Yeah, me too," says Myitt, relieved.  "Next time, like the girl says: Push the damn Tylenol on her, jerk."  She smiles a little, elbowing Corliss.

[Chad32]

Suddenly, the hunter walked into the bar. He smelled of engine oil, and a but of sweat, and he had obviously been hard at work trying to get his ship running again.  He strode purposefully to the bar, and demanded water without making eye contact with anyone but the bartender. He left quickly after paying.

Temrash had tensed a bit when he arrived, but settled down slightly when he left. "Told you guys he was still around. Hopefully he won't try to steal parts from other ships in the area."

[Alic]

Alic nods. <Thank you.>

She had begun to close her eyes when she heard someone come into the bar. Alic was scared for a moment when the hunter walked in, she was in absolutely no shape to fight. But ass soon as she was going to stand up, the hunter was gone. She signed, relieved.
