RP: YSS Ryūjō Personnel Shuttle - Fyodor Vikenti Zima
- Thread starter Rhysis
- Start date
Fyodor got up from his seat, a heavily abused pair of Minkan-sized chairs, and walked to the indicated shuttle. Almost crouching to get his 9 ft frame into the shuttle, he looked at the pilot, nodded at her, then settled into a seat, obviously uncomfortable. What I wouldn’t give for a decent chair, the Kodian thought, leaning back and closing his eyes.

The pilot smiled to the Kodian as he got as settled as possible. "You must be the new SAINT op for the Ryujo. Nice to meet you. The name's Kyo. "
She pointed at the seats. "Sorry the arrangements aren't more to your size specifications. I'm just a transport shuttle. Don't get a lot of pull with special equipment and the like. If it's any consolation, the Ryujo's taken on quite a wide variety of species lately. You should find it a good measure more comfortable there."

Fyodor opened one eye to look at the pilot. “Good to meet you too.” I guess. “You guessed correctly. And don’t worry about my…predicament,” he said, raking a finger on the shuttle’s ceiling. “I’ve gotten used to it over the last couple of years. Oh, and I’m Fyodor.”

"Nice to meet you, Fyodor."
The shuttle's comm system beeped and Kyo answered.
-"Shuttle 27 this is Star Army command. Delay your departure for additional personnel. Orders for an Elysian Santo Hei are being transmitted to you now."-
"Roger, command. Will await their arrival."
Kyo looked back at her passenger. "Well, Fyodor, looks like there may be some company on the trip."

The Santô Hei in question arrived not far behind, wearing the cornflower blue duty uniform of the infantry. Upon reaching the shuttle, she bowed to the occupant who had preceded her. She was not a short Elysian, but at least her wingspan was no more than 3.5 meters.
She stopped short of standing up straight after the gesture, turned her head in the direction of the cockpit, and called out with a smile, "Have I permission to come aboard? My luggage shall arrive, shortly."

"Aye." The Elysian walked aboard, surveyed the seating, and decided to take a perch in the center row, attaching a waist strap, but leaving her shoulders unhindered, so that she could lean forward and rest on her knees, to give her wings more room above the seats' backrests.
Her possessions arrived in a single crate. "All set. I've not been assigned power armour yet," was her explanation for packing light. She watched Fyodor, but asked no questions. He worked for SAINT, after all.

And with the Elysian's equipment came the Kodian's, in particular the hulking figure of his M10 HELGA, so large that it had to be laid sideways on the shuttle's deck.
"Throw the duffel bag over here, if you will," Fyodor said, curling a claw in the come here gesture. After getting his bag, he pulled out his datapad, bringing up a book. Hmm...The Life of a SAINT.
Before he dove into his reading though, what his apparent crewmember had said bugged him. He looked at the Elysian and asked, "You don't have a Hikael, Santo Hei?

Navian was taken aback by the question, enough to raise her chin, and stiffen her shoulders. "No, why would--" She caught herself, and instead repeated, "I have not been assigned power armour." She looked straight ahead, rather than meet the Kodian's gaze, though shyness was not the issue.

With all the gear loaded, Kyo nodded to her co-pilot, who finished the pre-flight checklist. Once everything was secured, the shuttle lifted off from the planet's surface and took off from the planet's atmosphere. While they proceeded to leave the system around Yamatai Prime, Kyo looked back.
"Procedure mandates that I remind you both we're at war with Kuvexia. As soon as you get on board the Ryujo you'll be expected to be at readiness condition 3."

Navian frowned at that. Her suit wouldn't be in easy reach unless she started unpacking, but that would make a mess. If she'd thought of this earlier, she might have had time to come up with a workaround, but for now she deemed it better to stay on course. "Understood."

Hearing the pilot, the Kodian bent over his duffel, making sure that his modified AMES suit was still at the bottom of it. Thank goodness I didn't forget it, he thought. Looks like I forgot my toothbrush though...again. Turning his head, he nodded to Kyo to show he heard, the ceiling giving him a nice scratch for his effort.

Kyo nodded her head. "That's precisely what I mean, Fyodor." She wasn't surprised that the SAINT operative knew.
The pilot looked over to the Elysian. "Navian, with the addition of the two of you, the Ryujo boasts the most diverse ship's crew in all of the Yamatain Star Army. There are, actually, surprisingly few Yamatians or Nekos on board. The species on board include Separa'Shan, Nepleslian, Minkan, a cyborg, Gartagen, and the most unusual case to ever come through the academy, by the name of Nocnimura."
She paused for a second to check her heading, then continued. "They made sure I was well briefed on this case before I came to pick you up. According to the personnel files, she was a Yamataian citizen, daughter of a decorated fighter pilot. She volunteered for SAOY and a mind transfer to a Neko body, but was offered a different transfer. Apparently some time ago, the Eucharis captured a Nightmare Mishhu body before it had a mind loaded into it. The SAOY held a competition to a few rounds of new recruits. She came out on top, and has been assigned to the Ryujo."
Kyo paused, again, this time to allow that to sink in. "Not sure I like the idea of serving with a Mishhu, but I'm a little more okay with it after I read the file. At least they didn't take a natural one and try to change it, somehow."
