"Discharge? I am not waiting ten months to get married, Loren. Right now, my family and friends are on this ship. So are yours. Speaking of which, you need to plan your bachelor party, and find a best man. Come on, Veronica! Let's go find Michelle!" With that the two girls sprinted off, leaving Kelley to blink confusedly after them. What was a bachelor party? The confused rider walked off the observation deck and incidentally into the nearest hanger. There Kelley saw Chief Mechanic Hushion and Dunni working on something. Seeing as he was as close to these two as any other guy on the super carrier, Kelley decided to ask them about it. He walked over and greeted the two. "Good Evening gentlemen, would either of you know what a 'bachelor party' entails? I'm getting hitched and Morain's making me throw one and get a best man. So I guess do you also want to be best man Dunni?"
< @WanderingJester > The mechanic father and son looked at each other, and then Kelley. "You are getting married? To Lieutenant Desero?" Dunni asks, looking incredulous. "Soon to be Lieutenant Kelley, son. And he wants you to be his best man! What an honor. I'm gonna go figure out the party, you two stay here." With that, Chief Hushion was out and running, tapping away on his Dataslate, leaving Kelley alone with Dunni. "I... guess I could be your best man. Thank you, but... I didn't know we were friends. < @MetalDog4 > After a minute, The door opens to reveal Kylei, still in her mechanic's uniform. She squeals, and hugs Connor. "I think I did it!" She says happily, and runs out of her room, dragging Connor behind her. "I had some ideas last night for the shielding, and none of them panned out. But by combining a few of them..." She explained what she did all the way down to the hangar where the Warthog waited. What awaited them was a small-scale slip-space engine, a metallic sphere suspended in the air inside a capsule. An abnormal ice-blue fog was also inside the capsule. "I remember you saying you wanted to test it... but if you are having second thoughts... < @MetalDog4 ; @Xanxas ; @Vulpas > Connor and Kyras would get messages inviting them to a bachelor party being thrown in honor of Loren Kelley's engagement. Sentinel would get a message to Morain Desero's bachelorette party, in honor of her impending wedding.
Sentinel Returned Crows embrace by Wrapping her arms around him. "I love you to Crow." she said. "If you want we can take this somewhere more private she said. with a smile on her face After giving him a kiss.
Connor listened intently to what the mechanic had to say, having built his FRAME himself he was intimately familiar with it, and would know right away if anything she told him would cause problems. As he entered the hangar, Skye appeared next to him and sank into perfect unison with their walking. "So what's this then? It's not going into the FRAME is it?" "First off Skye, don't be rude, this is Kylei, she's the one I was...er...yeah..." He trailed off awkwardly for a moment before cutting off what was most likely an inappropriate remark. "And Kylei this is Skye, my SOUL. She's been with me a long time, and is my closest friend, she can be very blunt but she usually means well." Skye bows low as he says this. "Skye, this should help with our maneuverability problem"
"You are getting married? To Lieutenant Desero?" Kelley nodded smiling, when the Chief Mechanic spoke up. "Soon to be Lieutenant Kelley, son. And he wants you to be his best man! What an honor. I'm gonna go figure out the party, you two stay here." With that he ran off. "I... guess I could be your best man. Thank you, but... I didn't know we were friends." Kelley raised an eyebrow. "Wow, way to make me both grateful and the situation awkward Hushion. If you don't want the job then that's fine, no need to insult the supposed friendship that I had apparently mistaken." The rider crossed his arms looking at Dunni with a "really?" face.
< @Vulpas > Crow kissed Sentinel again, holding her close, before lifting her up and carrying her to his quarters. He sits her on the bed, looking somewhat nervous. "Are you sure you want to to this, Sentinel?" < @WanderingJester > "No! Kelley, I'm sorry... I just never forgave myself for that outburst above Lutia. I would be glad to be your best man. And I am happy you consider me a friend." Dunni said. "Now... we have to figure some stuff out. First, the tuxes. We also need to decide on food, refreshments..." < @MetalDog4 > "Oh! Well nice to meet you, Skye. Did you know that was my mother's maiden name? Anyway, we first need to disable and remove your existing thruster systems. Next..." Kylei began walking through the step-by-step, even as they began to work
The pair of them made quite the team, between his in-depth knowledge of the FRAME and her knowledge of the system being installed, the job was done in no time at all. It took a lot of effort for him to keep his eyes and mind on the task, and even then his eyes and mind kept wandering back to places they shouldn't and he would have to wrench them back or risk being disemboweled by machinery. Eventually the task was finished, and the back panel on the FRAME was reattached. "We make quite a team eh Kylei? Job like that by myself would have take at least three times as long."
"No! Kelley, I'm sorry... I just never forgave myself for that outburst above Lutia. I would be glad to be your best man. And I am happy you consider me a friend. Now... we have to figure some stuff out. First, the tuxes. We also need to decide on food, refreshments..." Kelley nodded, indicating that he had accepted the apology. And so the two conversed on the way out of the hanger, working on the preparations for both the party, the wedding and the reception itself.
Kyras was having the issues. He had been invited to a bachelors party, the kinda fancy smancy thingy with tuxes and the like. He didnt do fancy. The fanciest thing he had was a t-shirt. Still, he might as well try. Combing his hair for once and sent out an order for a "fancy tuxedi thingy" and read up on, ediqiuet, he thought it was? Geh, what to do. So he combed his hair for the first time in forever before stewing over what to get his comrade. This may take a while, he though.
"Defiantly sure Crow, We have been with each other For a while now Besides we will be likely at each others side for a longer time then that." Sentinel said to her Friend with a smile Taking his the lead she gave him a kiss.
