Eska's brow arches haughtily. "Its unreasonable if they told you where they would be, which I did, as I recall." She pauses for a moment, then lets out an exasperated sigh. "Sorry. Shouldn't be acting like a startled pit viper. Just wasn't expecting company." She offers up the apology almost...

Jasper was rather doubtful of his new employer's competence basically the moment they put him outside the train. This lot was supposed to pretend to fit in on that train? Orpheus had a better chance of not peeking over his own shoulder. He'd distanced himself from the others by a couple dozen...

Eska can hear Chanterelle coming before she sees her, and she ponders hiding before deciding that it might be better to just pretend she got lost if confronted by security. Being and looking young had its benefits, and she'd discovered quickly that adults in civilized space were easily fooled by...

Eska quickly proves disappointed in her various searches. Whoever was working here was at least decently thorough in combing through ships after their former owners had gone about emptying them. In the absence of interesting things to pilfer, she turns her restless energy towards being an...

Eska largely kept quiet during the planning discussion. She couldn't grasp why everyone else seemed amenable to splitting up their limited resources across three different missions meant to accomplish the same thing, but they were the professionals, or at least what passed for it around here...

The days spent on Sine are long and terribly slow for Eska, who finds the security and monotony of civilized life stifling and then increasingly uncomforting. A lifetime of survivalist living, constantly proving herself superior to her other vat-cloned siblings and battling for the approval of...

There's a stillness in the air the morning after Benjamin concluded his work aboard The Belle of Manassas. He'd disposed of his eveningwear, too lazy to wash the blood out, and he sleeps long into the morning to makeup for his late night at work. It took him awhile to even get to sleep in the...

Eska finds her new roommate situation palatable enough. She's grown up in what passes for barracks on her homeworld, the sort of places you sleep with a gun under your pillow and a knife already clutched in your hand, not to mention less savory sleeping situations in the wilds. A warm room with...

With the unpleasant business with Bruce over and done with, Benjamin returns his attention to other pursuits. Without a request for his presence from the Twins, and Bruce out of sight and therefore equally out of mind, he takes the opportunity to partake in his hobbies. As the weeks go on, he's...

Eska rises to her feet when the crew is dismissed and steps before her father before offering a ceremonial salute. She clears her throat and babbles briefly in another language that translating devices take a few moments to properly parse. "Go forth with the spirit of fire, Imperator."...

Alexander remains seated even as some of the guests stand. On Govanti they would be chastised for their lack of manners. Here, those still standing can be forgiven the offense. As they recount the day's events, he nods sagely. He is about to speak when his daughter pipes up first. Eska had been...

Alexander stands near a large window where he'd been peering out over his kingdom until the arrival of Eska, who he had turned to face. His daughter, fully embracing whatever recent phase has made her so petulant, stands several feet to the side braiding her hair. He'd called her up here to...

Benjamin plods off to return the horses as instructed, even stopping to have a quaint bit of small talk with the man before handing over his due compensation, tipping his hat, and bidding the fellow a pleasant rest of the evening before turning on his heel and departing. Coming back in the...

Alexander watches his kingdom turn to chaos from his bunker, a dozen holo-screens showing the geyser of bodies erupting from the depths and the chaos consuming the streets. The chattering of Rhylan in his ear is like a distant buzzing. Chaos unfolding at some point was to be expected, but to...

Benjamin remains on his feet, leaning up against the wall with a half-empty mug of ale in one hand. When Helena bumps into him, he remains almost perfectly still, like a living wall despite the casual stance. "Pardon me, miss." He says, almost mechanically apologizing for it as if it were his...

In his palace, Alexander retreats to his private quarters. His bastion is the remains of a star-yacht crashed long ago, the old decor faded with time, but it is still a far sight more comfortable than the alternatives. Secure in the fortified inner chamber, the result of the former owner's...

Alexander proved just as uncaring as he had implied he was when reunited with his sister. The lives of her crew were mostly beneath his interest, and his even-handed justice fell as it always had. “Guests “were consigned to the Pit, or wherever else they were needed, to serve any one of his many...

May 28, 1879 "You seen the news today, Mr. Levin? Our boys finished up that awful business in the Cape after they showed that barbarian a bit of your American ingenuity." Mr. Tudge says, noisily flapping his paper about and rustling the pages. "Marchin' on to wrap it all up in... Ulundi, if I'm...
