RE: "A Dream Unrealized" - AuruemSaber - 06-15-2019

Graham slightly grin's at "C"'s approach
"So you finally escaped the radar room after how long?"

Graham puts down his bag and helmet and accepts the smoke offered from Onyx and lights it and takes a drag
before turning and taking a nostalgic look at the hangar and more specifically the "Nephthys" class Very Heavy Fighter he used to fly. He shrugs at Opals question before looking at "C" waiting for his answer to Onyx's question curious as to what his plans are

"Recon master? I don't know what you're talking about." Clyde reassured with an awkward chuckle, being fully aware of his abilities and limitations as he respectfully threw his hand in the general direction of Onyx's cigarrette offering, without touching it. "But hey, if you ever need my services, I'll give you a discount."

Acknowledging Opal and Joshua with a smile and exactly two nods, his eyes widened slightly at the Freeport 6 idea. "Well, if ya'll can hook me with a room there that'd be just swell. Sure beats sleeping on the back of my ba..." - Clyde hesitated for a moment, turning his at his fighter - "....That marvelous hunk of junk over there."

The enamoured sight on his Interceptor quickly darted back to the group, being worn by a more neutral expression. He tossed his right hand to the back of his neck, scratching slightly all over and looking away from the group; it was clear as day that he was embarassed over something, perhaps he had grown attached to the accomodations of Freeport 11? Was his old place to bunker down really a nearly-decreipt Light Fighter?

He eventually came to - "Ah, right, another thing; sorry for keeping you all in the dark." - pointing at Joshua and Opal. "My name's Clyde Bannister. 'C' is an alias I chose for myself. I trust that you won't be swinging that name around..."

Onyx glanced at his interceptor and gave a nod before putting the smokes away, She let out a sigh after a long drag of her own smoke, Reaching her hand out and taking Clyde's shoulder in her grasp until he looked at her, giving him a smirk.

"I slept in the back of my Waran for the longest time too, nothing to be ashamed of as long as it gets the job done. If you need a place to hang for awhile i'm sure I could get you a room on Freeport 6. If I offered it to Joshua, there's no reason I wouldn't offer it to you. After all, we're wing mates."

Onyx let her hand slip from Clyde's shoulder, glancing down and pulling a pad out of her pocket, transferring 50 million worth of credits to Clyde and Joshua's accounts. Before placing the pad back in her pocket and looking up at the two, readjusting the railgun on her back before crossing her arms.

"I'm sure that should be enough to keep you afloat in addition to the rooms I'm getting you until you figure out what you want to do. Don't worry about Rose and I, I'll take care of the people I care about, unlike the first time that lead me down this hellbent path of questionable morals. I'm not sure how much land sells for on Kyushu, I can imagine it's a hell of alot considering it's prime farm land."

She thought a moment, in the realization she acknowledged caring about people she let out a woeful sigh and pulled Rose close to her in an embrace, giving her a smile before losing it and glancing at Clyde and Joshua

"The question is finally answered it seems. I do have a heart, just not a big one. Don't let it go to your head Grey, or i'll cut off the one you don't need."

Onyx gave Grey a cheeky grin before taking a final drag of the smoke and crushing it under her boot. The questions circling in her mind about what to do seemed to vanish as she looked forward blankly with a bit of hope for once in her life.

"I suppose I could make a house nearby the bar with rooms for all of us if you two need a permanent place to stay and call home. It might take awhile to build though. A planet to call home that isn't in threat of being ripped out from under you is probably a welcome change of pace. Especially after the incident at Gran Canaria. Oh by the way Rose, i'm gonna need you to teach me Japanese, I've never even picked up a book."

RE: "A Dream Unrealized" - Dark_Knight - 06-18-2019

Opal folds her arms and nods after Clyde's request, registering his name in her synthetic mind. She looks towards Onyx after the request and the mention of her heart.

"I always knew that you had a heart Onyx, like most humans. Your heart is not larger than the aver-"

Opal pauses a little, she rubs her neck speaking blankly and with some embarrassment.

"Ah, it was a metaphor. Yes, well I have had knowledge of your sympathy for some time as you know. You hide your feelings well, Onyx but you are turning a new phase of your life in agreeing to be kind. Spending my time with you shall be, interesting."

Opal cocks her head to the side at Onyx's request to teach Japanese

"I can certainly teach you Japanese, the Kusari Japanese is very intricate and easy to understand for me. You will have to be patience in me teaching you it."

RE: "A Dream Unrealized" - AuruemSaber - 06-19-2019

Graham shrugs at Clyde's little reveal not being all that concerned about not having known before grinning slightly at Onyx's comment before taking the last drag of his smoke and stubbing it out and tossing the butt aside.
"Now when do I ever let things go to my head?"

His mind started to work on his immediate plan and then he realized if he was gonna be going all the way out to Kyushu or Tau 29 that it might be time to clear out his old place on LA but that could probably wait till after he got himself set up again after all it had been awhile since he had been back. The clear uncertainty from just a few minutes ago was gone now.
"Well I guess I'll take you up on that offer Onyx. I ain't got much better options if I'm being honest here"

Onyx glanced at Opal as she stopped herself short of a very literal explanation and realized the metaphor behind what Onyx had said, giving her a smile and a wink, before speaking.

"See, you learn pretty quickly, Rose. Didn't figure you knew what metaphors were yet. As for the Japanese you'll have to bear with me on learning from you. Frustration comes naturally to me and I've always struggled with languages."

Onyx laughed at what Joshua said and stared at him with a smirk.

"The real question there is when the hell don't you let things go to your head. Just don't get yourself kidnapped on our way there like you did outside this freeport tough guy."

She turned her attention to Clyde to see what his answer to the proposal was, knowing Opal's position and Joshua's already, she only needed Clyde's now. Crossing her arms and watching him in silence. Knowing he didn't talk all that much and thought hard about the decisions he made.

RE: "A Dream Unrealized" - KaelanFrey - 06-22-2019

*beep!* Right after Onyx made her transfer, something in Clyde's helmet appeared to flicker in his HUD - it seemed to be quite blurry and flickery, probably due to the device's nearly decreipt functionality, so he made an effort to immediately dismiss the notification. Nothing that he couldn't check on his PDA later in his ship...

"Ah, Kyushu... Man, I don't think I've been to Kusari that much." Clyde sighed, chuckling at the thought. Perhaps the memory of the war that preceded the Gaul's incursion was still too fresh in his mind, but who could tell? The 'recon master' not being that keen on Kusari was a bit odd, but understandable considering his Bretonian roots. "You have a good point on the station exploding thing, that would really suck... But I'm willing to take my chances."

Clyde looked around. He seemed to be quite eager to leave, but he couldn't help taking what could be his last look on Freeport 11. It's never easy for a man to just walk out of a place they enjoyed so much to work in! His mind was rushing, despite being certain of the path that was laid ahead of him, ready to take new challenges whatever they were.

"Right. We should get our paperwork on Freeport 6 started then! Ready to move out?"

RE: "A Dream Unrealized" - Hemlocke - 06-22-2019

//This is a Private Roleplay, only those invited via PM may reply.\\

Onyx nodded to white and uncrossed her arms, her fighter had been loaded in the transport, along with pretty much all her belongings, walking over to her bomber and popping the cockpit.

"Clyde and Joshua, get everything you need and spares loaded on that transport, there's still room, I'll be flying my bomber as an escort for the trasport to Freeport 6, Rose I assume you'll be flying your personal ship with us as well?"

Onyx turned the engine to her Waran bomber on, letting it idle as it warmed up, walking over to the transport and talking with a guy, signing a few papers and giving them a 30 minute pack up and leave time

"You got 30 minutes, grab a quick drink and anything you need and we'll get going. Say goodbye to Freeport 11 and hello to the cold confines of space. We'll be taking a trip through kusari instead of the Omicrons as usual, so this will be more of a sightseeing expedition. Rose, there's enough room in the cockpit of my bomber for you, if you'd like to ride with me that is, I could always let you use my fighter."

She walked back over to Rose and gave her a peck on the lips and a smile, walking back over to her Waran and leaning against it while she waited for the three to suit up and get ready to leave the station.

RE: "A Dream Unrealized" - AuruemSaber - 06-23-2019

Graham simply nodded his head in acknowledgment of what Onyx said before going over to his Sabre opening the cargo hold and leaving his bag in the hold and leaving his helmet on the pilot's seat. After that Graham dropped down and sat on the wing attached to the right side of the Sabre's bottom engine. Producing a cigarette carton from his jacket Graham then proceeds to light his second smoke in less than half an hour with a engraved silver lighter.

Graham took a drag before looking around the hangar for what perhaps could be the very last time. His mind wandered off to thinking about what happened in the rest of Sirius whilst he was in Delta thinking of how out of the loop he currently was aside from a few rumors he heard from the traveler's and the rest of the people that passed by Delta

RE: "A Dream Unrealized" - KaelanFrey - 06-26-2019

Clyde made a quick wave to Onyx, pointing at her and nodding, indicating that he was ready to move. Turning around, he hastily walked towards his ship and climbed around its dock scaffolding to reach the Arrow's cockpit, jumping in and tossing away his bag inside the cargo hold after opening its door. He was more than ready to leave and fly into the cold dead space of Omicron Delta, course planned to Freeport 6 through Kusari.

With the scaffoldings moved away by the landing pad's robotic crew, all that was missing was have the ship primed up in the launch bay, and the voyage would finally begin...
