Woo! FUCK YEAH! Even if it seems kinda random. I mean... I thought I was supposed to flirt a bit more before she did that. But hey, whatever...

"Yeah, we were all slated to jump onto the MK, but we got reassigned last minute. Well... most of us." Gyles grinned brightly as the medic grabbed a hold of his arm. Maybe today was his lucky day. Though, as he thought about it a bit more, he realized it was either that, or he'd gone for a really freaky girl. Not that I really give a damn either way. A guy can respect a girl that plasters every kind of 'Fuck You' in known space on her front.

"We got invited by a crewmate to party in his hometown. Should be fun. You want in?" He asked, his expression shifting to one of slightly intrigued curiosity.
 
Henry had been drinking alone and he was quite a while away from Apogee square. He'd had 2 beers by himself, and decided that it was time to try and stop being a loner-silent type person - only for tonight.

"Thankyou." He told the barman as he got up and left without another word.
"...weirdo." The barman muttered to himself with a shrug as Henry was making his exit.

Henry opened up his Datapad and searched for a sort of mapping program he could use to guide himself to Apogee Square, somewhere in Los Apagos.
While he was at it, he sent the following message to Will:
Henry O. Morris said:
Will, I'm heading to Apogee Square. Whereabouts are you and the party that Sergeant Rico is holding?

Autumn watched Gyles with a grin and gave the marine a thumbs up. Way to go, Sug! She thought to herself as she watched him, that was relatively more simple than she thought it was going to be. Maybe she saw something comforting in Gyles, or was just lonely, it was hard to tell with just a glance. She shrugged at Ran. "Better luck next time, Chief."

She glanced towards Kagura at her proclamation of boredom, "Dear Heart... it's only been a couple minutes. I swear you have the attention span of a ferret on speed, one minute you're all smiles and almost flirting and maiming someone; then, the next you're ready to fall asleep. Why not pursue the interests there? Fucking and fighting expel the same amount of energy, one is just more enjoyable for the other party than the other and you have at least one taker."
 
Harrison checked his datapad and found the new message. Quickly typing a reply, he spelled out:

Apogee Square; somewhere near the Silver Bullet Gun Shop. Look for Ran, he's the only one with a smoke plume coming out of his mouth that could blot out the sun.

"Doct...-or?" Adrian had found his way over to the budding crowd surrounding Rose. "As in medic-ish doctor?" The medic grinned. "I need a new lackey, seeing as my old one went hopping off to New Nepleslia."
 
Thorn kept that one hand on Gyles, squeezing whenever the impulse to struck her. It was MUCH harder when Adrian came over, "Yeah, whenever wherever." She looked between the two that offered, and nodded faintly. Her other hand stayed at her side, but the woman who had hopped into the park regarded everyone, checking Fay's uniform once more suspiciously. "Up and up I guess." She thought.

"Medic..yeah. Guess that's close enough." She didn't look at Adrian, she already didn't like the tone. But they could have a little chat later. The sooner some drinks were in her the better she'd be able to handle those things people did, she could avoid the rituals better by doing the nice things that helped too! And that would be perfect-fan-fragging-fucking-flying-tastic.
 
Kagura pouted at Autumn when she spoke to her about having a short attention span. "I've just been bored with having one arm for a week, I suppose you can say I'm feeling antsy." She smiled at her.
 
"Everything alright? It feels like my arm has its own heartbeat, Dream." Gyles asked, his voice displaying something of a cross between playful sarcasm and actual, genuine concern. Despite having only met the woman, he certainly found her... interesting, to say the least. Hmm... makes a guy wonder... But she hasn't tried to kill anyone yet, so I think we're cool. And at least this one doesn't have auto-resetting memory. Err... does she?

Damn... well... I'll find out.

"Sarge should be here in a few minutes..." He said, sighing a little, but putting on a fairly happy smirk soon after. "And you look like a drink or two might do you some good."
 
"...Well, fine. You're kinda fat, anyway." The Chief pulled out another cigarette and lit it up, strolling away from the new arrival to avoid any sort of reprisal from her. Somewhat liking the neon lights that dotted the streets, he just sorta stood there, taking everything in and enjoying this shore leave given to him. The shady-looking bunch of guys that were shadowing the group still concerned him, of course. And his left hand held his cigarette while the right hand rests on his .45.

Throwing a cigarette onto the ground and being momentarily distracted by the embers that blossomed out of the cigarette's head, the Chief lit yet another cancer stick and walked back to the group, noticeably avoiding Dream. "Where the fuck is Rico? I need some fucking alcohol in me. Anyone got some hidden on them?" He turned back to Dream, wanting to cause some trouble. "Got any hidden under those, Private Ta-tas?"
 
Adrian reached into one of the many pockets covering his bulky cargo pants, retrieving a relatively small bottle, with a white label, and festive red and green decorations. It looked like something that would come from a hotel minibar.

"Play nice with my new lackey and you might get some, Chief Rui." He twirled it between his fingers. If Ran possessed some type of magical vision, he might have been able to see the miniscule characters on the bottom edge of the label denoted its alcohol content to be somewhere around 50%.
 
"Nothing will make cat scratch there look better." Rose motioned with her head, and eased the grip of her hand on his arm, she bit on the bar to her tongue stud again, the only way she could keep from leaving a bruise on Gyles. It wasn't very long before she was looking at the others again, her eyes flitted to Adrian but not for long, she wasn't sure if she liked his condescending chivalry. In fact, she was pretty sure that bottle would cram far enough up his nose that the unit could use him for a tap.

She didn't have to talk to Cat Scratch to embarrass him anymore, the whining was probably enough against him after the sad display. "You all fought in the K' too, right?" Distracting herself would only work so long, even as she asked the less irate members of her squad inane questions that she didn't really care about, she looked around at the others, never letting her eyes rest for too long.
 
"Yeah, but we were broken up different assignments. Some hit the beachfront, while the rest hit H2O. Those of us who wound up in the deep eventually ended up on that AA platform Coleman was holed up in." Gyles said, with a bit of an uncomfortable smile, brushing his hair back with his free arm. He wasn't particularly fond of the Offensive, but the squad pulled out alright, so he could talk about it without any problems.

"So what happened on your end of things?"
 
Autumn smiled back at Kagura, "Well, dear heart, we have some new faces here that you could try to make friends with? That'd help pass the next few minutes before Rico gets here."

She waved over the white haired medic. "Yo, Medic guy, what's up? Come hang with the cool kids for a little while." The armorer grinned as she waved the boy over to her in a friendly joking tone of voice.
 
Fay blinked as he realized that Autumn was calling to him. He was thinking about tugging the red cross cloth off his left shoulder. Being referred to as Medic all of the time was a little annoying, but the Geshrin/Nepleslian Hybrid didn't mind most of the time.

He smirked as he walked back over to Kagura and Autumn. "My name is Fay, just to let you know," he said with a smile. He wasn't mad at all and showed no signs of disgust or rudeness. There was only politeness and a smile.
 
"Sorry Fay, but when you decide to wear the uniform off-duty for the RnR it just means to me that you wanna be the designated driver or you want to pull in some tail using the nice old 'military man' tactic," Autumn grinned with a wink at the medic as she spoke. "I'm Autumn, and the purple haired gal with the sharp attitude and claws is Kagura. Don't let her rough exterior fool you, she is really soft and squishy and not so angry under the 'netics."

The Geshrin armorer rocked on her heels as she indicated Kagura, she was smiling brightly and her tone was rather friendly. "So are you gonna help take care of us tonight or are you just looking to have a good time? Both things can be very similar if you play your cards right."
 
Fay blushed at Autumn's second comment. He cleared his throat before answering, "I don't drink much, so I'll probably be the 'designated driver.' I wore my uniform because I don't really have any street clothes anymore." It was a little embarrassing, but he hadn't been home in over a year, and his mother had given most of his old clothes to his 'niece'. She wasn't really related to the Saelus', but his mother treated her like family, and so would Fay.

"If you want me to take care of you, then that is fine," the medic stated, still with a light blush, "I probably will be doing a lot of that soon enough anyways, no?" One of his hands swatted some hair out of his face, though it just fell back into the same location anyways.
 
Rose's eyelashes flinched as Gyles asked her about the action she'd seen. "Later." Was all she replied, not letting the memories come back to her. She frowned just a moment as Fay left, looking over her shoulder at the other women who hadn't come to introduce themselves with that same face she seemed to practice or naturally put towards the world. A mask?

The combat medic stopped the flinch of her free hand, and adjusted one of her straps quietly. If he wanted to ask something else he would, and she would have to entertain the maypole since he didn't freak out when she commandeered his arm. Thorn wasn't used to a unit with that many nice enough looking folks, this was gonna be an interesting posting she decided..if they could handle her.

The backup was always there.
 
Harrison continued to stand idly by, watching the armed thugs progress towards Gran. Slowly, his hand moved to one of his hips, and the flik of a safety button could be heard to the attentive listener. Harrison placed his feet just a bit wider and wiggled the fingers on his left hand, which hovered a few inches above his gun handle- completely non-threatening unless you were paranoid.
 
"Whenever Rico gets here, you could ask him for shopping help. He's pretty good about it, unless you prefer Adrian's fashion sense over there," The armorer replied brightly as she playfully indicated her other medical officer friend. "I think I can handle myself when I get drunk. I just like it when other people can handle me as well, you know how that goes, eh?"

Autumn grinned as she glanced around the crowd again. "This is a pretty showing of folks from the Alliance! I'm surprised this many people even came. Most times people want alone time from their shipmates. I guess we can't be that bad if all those meatheads wanna party with us, right?"
 
Fay shrugged, "I suppose. Though if you ever need my assistance, just go ahead and call." He smirked as he also watched everyone gather and nodded. "I wonder what is taking Rico so long, though," he mused to keep his mind off the three attractive women's (Autumn, Kagura, and Rose) bodies. It may be completely natural, but it was still embarrassing to him.
