Please only respond if you are or where actually docked on this vessel!

Many arrangements have been made. Captains have been called upon to help escorting and protecting the Barrel.Roll. We might be a piecefull group within the Temporary Autonomous Zoners, but not everyone within Sirius is like that.

Now it is just waiting for the the remaining crew to arrive. In the meantime the ship is getting supplied and the necessary repairs are taken care of.

Colonel LaFlamme and Commander Anders were still debating inside the conference room at Raven, so when she heard that the Barrel was cruisin, she thought she better pay a visit to check security. She got on her personal Kaichou and sailed to where the barge was moored.

This one was a peculiar barge. Since it was the home of the Cole family, it was modified so factories and steamrooms were not included, and that was why one couldn't see the usual smoke coming out of the rear end of the colossal vessel.

She aimed for the hangar entrance and open her comm channel.

Barrel Roll crew, this is Helena Agrippa, requesting permission to dock!

The bomber was floating near Pueblo Bonito. Reynard was having some good time in the company of a bottle of wine and some cigars. He was grateful for the little time he could spend without any conflicts, interactions.

At first he thought he is hallucinating but realized after a few seconds that the big, ugly rock floating towards him is actually a vessel. From the custom paint job he could identify the vessel.

"Huge vessel... huge bar... more drinks!"

In haste, opened a comm channel and requested to dock on the "ugly whale". The bomber was inside the ships hangar but the docking procedure haven't been finished.

He was literally jumping out of the snub and ran towards the bar. During the "marathon" he alerted a crewman to notify the captain about his arrival.

Doc hated fighters. In fact, combat ships were NOT something he cared for but for now, he was learning the ropes of an Osprey, the "O.Versus.Tergum."

The Barrel Roll came into view. He was astonished as to how big it was. Which was worse, docking the Osprey or getting lost inside. Doing what he must, he docked without incident, grabbed his bags and went to find his quarters.

Natalie deSonne is sitting in her nice little Osprey. Not that she likes this ship, as a former GRN pilot she knows some better equipment. But at least she did it to the Barrel Roll.
She opens the comm, asking for permission to dock. Then, after a positive answer she docks her tiny ship in the stomach of the biggest whale in Sirius. "Feel Welcome" one of the workers said, when she leaves her vessel and heads toward the quarters.
"Thanks buddy", Natalie answers, then she starts her search for the quarters. Could be an adventure to get lost in this unbelievable big ship the Barrel Roll is...

Barge Captain Tim Gibbles was already onboard the Barrel.Roll... he was commissioned as the Barge Captain of the Hakim Bey Depot.... At first he was amazed at how the captain of the Barrel Roll managed to renovate the entire ship... It -was- BIG but it reminded him of the Hakim Bey...

Among other things, Gibbles wondered why the captain called him onboard...

Must be a grand opening or something

Of course... he knew already where to wait...

"I wonder why he called me here..." , he says... as he takes a sip of his cognac

Just after Captain Tim Gibbles took his sip of the cognac he heard a voice behind him. He turns slightly and notices Richard Cole heading his way. "Kallisti Captain Gibbles, it has been awhile since our last meeting. What where you all up to in the meantime?" Within the sound of making the last word he orders a glass of water.

Doc settled his quarters a bit. It was obvious that barge quarters were an afterthought so he did his best to make them somewhat homey.
Getting into something more casual but semi-professional, Doc went to get a drink and begin inspecting sick bay. He hoped it was better than quarters.

Seeing Mr. Cole, he extends his hand and the two shake hands for a moment.

"Kallisti Mister Cole... Yes, its been a while....", as he says this, he rests his glass on the bar. A smile erupts from his face.

"Well ye know... the usual... I've been keeping the Barge in tip top shape. And it seems yours is in good hands too.", in truth the Hakim Bey Depot had not been used for months now... it seemed that the need for such large and cumbersome trade ships such as the Barge had declined. Moreover, the prices of jump drive fuel were rising up... partly due to the renewed offensive of the Gallic forces...

"I must agree with you Captain Gibbles.. The prices went up like never before. Yet must say it did not affect me much. As this ship it's primarily role is entirely different. Don' forget times do change and who knows what Eris still has in her sleeves for us. But seeing you have gave me an idea. As we might consider polishing the Hakim.Bey.Depot up and re-instate it. You might consider asking Doc Holliday if there are some more goods we need in the near future. know he was settling down in his quarters. So you might check it out later. But you liked what we did with the ship? It took us a long time to make it as its now indeed." And Richard takes another sip of his glass of water...
