Galaxy's Edge Space Bar (archive)

Corliss smiles mirthlessly.  "Oh yeah, I hope they don't hurt the Andalite, either.  Anyway, if she really is in there feeding, what're we going to do?  Just stand there and watch?  I honestly don't care if Terenia loses her Andalite host or not, even though Efaen is involuntary.  I know they have some sort of plan going on, staying close to Terenia's sister and all that.  They must have done.  But I'm a bit hesitant to trust the fate of an Imperial Yeerk with an involuntary Andalite host to the hands of a band of Andalite warriors."  He shrugs.  "Don't reckon Alic or Ossanlin would hurt her, anyway.  But I don't trust Claxter, or his draconic new sidekick."

(Feel free to correct me in anything I get wrong)

Nachtzwaluw lands and parks his modified Volkswagen van a bit roughly in the field next to the bar, the gas gauge hitting E as it comes to a stop. Parked in front of the bar is a Yeerk bug fighter with a couple of shady characters standing in front, talking; two sentient being was standing by the door.
"This should be all right, you are just here for some spare liquid schwartz and a bite to eat. No way you should end up in trouble," he says as he gets out of the VW, locks it with a remote to the tune of Ducktales, and walks to the door. "Hello, good folks!" he says to the beings by the door.

((Ducktales FTW.  You might want to describe what this Nachtzwaluw fellow looks like   You know what this bar needs....moychendiz ing!  Space Bar the t-shirt, Space Bar the action figures...Space Bar the flamethrower!  And Andalites don't have Bug fighters, last time I checked--except for Terenia, but how would Mr. N know that? ))

[Alic]

((tried to reply earlier and BB internet went down nationwide. It just started working but I'm working 5 hours overtime ill reply as soon as I get home! Sorry guys))

[Darth Revan]

((As far as I know, I (Parker) am the only one hanging out by the bar door. Unless you were talking about the Bug Fighter door.

Space Balls FTW!!!!))

Parker sees the VW bus land and its occupant exit. <What the hell?>

[Chad32]

(Ok, I got a bit of library time. And yes, Terenia is in morph and should be able to use thought speech.)

<Gross. This is gross.> Claxter said as he held Terenia. <Help me remove Efaen's restraints.> They got her unhooked from the pool, and undid all of her restraints. Claxter then placed her back in the pool.

<So you tried to buy yourself more time, did you? well you can just sit there in the pool from here on out. What do you say to that?>

"Not much, I suppose."

<Well, her body is a morph. she should be able to use thought speech.>

"Well I guess we should move Efaen. I can probably carry her while you get the container out and to the bar. Parker and Alic both volunteered to let her in, but if she takes Parker she'll be enough of a threat to hurt us all. Except maybe Oss."

<We will discuss things when we are back inside the bar.>

(Okay, We can wait here for Alic to respond, as she's close to the ship. The door is still open.)

[Midnight_Huntress]

She heard a lot of commotion comming from the door and she wandered over to where Parker stood. "What's going on out there?" she asked him tilting her head in curiosity.

[Gaz]

Morgan looked out at the new arrival. "That has to be the most interesting ship I've ever seen. How in the world does it survive out in the black?"

[Alic]

(alic is at the ship hatch watching. Sorry it took so long to reply. They forgot to schedule anyone to work last night so I did overtime when I got home I passed out. I'm sure I already said that earlier but I was half asleep)
<Ugh. Nasty lookin things. Let her feed. Just put her back.> Alic shuddered at the slug in Claxter's hand. The yeerk's natural state really just creeped her out. But yes she would still take her chances if she needed to.

<Hah. I don't look like much, but I've kicked Ossanlin's ass before. You would be surprised.> Alic smiled slightly. It would be a different story if someone else was controlling her though, Oss wouldn't be so easy on a yeerk. Or maybe he would? He was a little weak sometimes when it came to the enemy.

[Midnight_Huntress]

All this commotion reminded Raksha of the Bounty HUnters who had been after her before. She turned to her father and said. "I was raised with the name Raksha, but it is too dangerous for me." Then she smiled. "From now on I am either Artemis or Silver." She said with pride.

[Darth Revan]

((Parker never offered himself to Terenia, I only theorized it in OOC. I don't trust her to do a SPARTAN justice. No offence Teach, but you just don't know their history, or true capabilities, and I can't explain it well. You'd have to read the first HALO novel before I'd agreed to it, and I don't expect you to do that just to control my character.))

Parker looked to Raksha with arms crossed, still leaning against the door frame, "They're kidnapping the body of someone, they're freeing the victim of slavery, they're condemning the death of an innocent, they're giving someone the control of their body back, their sentencing another person to a life without senses. All with this one act. All against another's will, all according to another's wishes."

[Midnight_Huntress]

That doesn't sound like a good thing if you put it that way." she said with a grimace.

[Myitt]

"They've been out there a long time," Corliss says worriedly. "Maybe I'd better go have a look." He gently pulls his jacket back on and steps outside, looking at Parker, overhearing the last of his musings. "Are they coming back in here?" he asks. "I am concerned that Aliciania may make a very hasty decision. I don't think any of us can presume what's really going on between Terenia and Efaen, either." He shakes his head. "What would you do, if you were Terenia? Of course, I can understand her desire to remain close to her sister, but she was raised human--unless she's some sort of sadistic sociopath, she can't really enjoy controlling another being, or at least she's gotten quite good at hiding her discomfort and misery about it. She did admit this Yeerk form of hers was some sort of punishment. Efaen may simply be her best chance to meet her ends. For now."

He squints out across the shipyard, holding the door ajar.  "Is that a...a VW bus?" says Corliss in surprise.  It's then that he notices the newcomer.

[Darth Revan]

Parker looks back to Terenia's Bug Fighter, "It's all about perception, Silver." Parker was about to expand on his thought, but Corliss came up and asked about their progress. "They're releasing Efaen now. I don't know where they plan to take her. Hey, do you still have your tupperware container?"

[Gaz]

Morgan listened to what Parker was saying. He shook his head.

"Not sure I like the sound of that," he said. "Central Government is enough where I come from. They got enough control over people without bein in their heads."
