MERP round 3 RP thread

"Who cares. You're there, with me. And that means we at least can have discreet makeout sessions."
Sera proved that by kissing Staria.

I sit there, returning the kiss while running my hand through her hair.

"Sounds like a plan to me."

I grin, and notice we're getting close.

Sera starts kissing her more, waiting until there were almost there to break off. "Have to make up for lost time somewhere; might as well start early." She grinned.

I grin with a light blush on my face.

"Why Sera, I believe your getting some courage! That or I'm just real easy..."

I pick up my bag as the shuttle stops.

"Lets go."

Sera blushes. "I...I at least know what I want."

Stepping off, a woman is waiting.
"Operations Chief Connor."
"Lietuenant Command Barenziah."
The woman sighed. "The Co -"
"Did not come to avoid a third broken nose. I know, ma'am."
She scowled. "Corporal Dalinari. Welcome aboard the Archangel. I am the XO, Lieutenant Commander Vex Barenziah." She sighed. "Connor will show you to the quarters and where the bathrooms are, as well as the lounges and mess."
And with that, she turned and left them alone.

Hoisting her stuff, she sighed. "Let's go."

I follow Sera and whisper in her ear.

"Third broken nose? I thought you kicked her once..."

"The second time was what got me on Omega." Sera blushed. "Don't punish me?" She said.

The XO wasn't paying attention so I gave Sera pinch on her butt and stuck out my tongue.

Sera nearly yelped, then glared at Staria. She then started to walk, one hand over her butt, palm out, ready to intercept. "Archangel was built on the SR2's specifications. They actually kept the leather and all. I'm glad they did."

I let out a 'Ohhh...' and nod smiling, secretly waiting for a chance to pinch again.

Sera glares at her, then falls back. "Once we get somewhere private you can play some more, ok? But please wait." She tried, hoping her compromise would work.

I nod grinning at the idea of more butt pinches.

"Now you were saying.. about leather and S17..."

"Leather seats, nicer beds...And SR2, not 17 silly." Opening the door she ushered her in, where Sera threw her stuff on one bunk. "Find your bunk. Should have your name on it."
She quickly unpacked her stuff before heading to the door to wait.

I point to my name right below her bunk.

"Hey what do you know!"

I lay down.

"Maybe you can sneak down in the night and cuddle?"

She blushes. "There's nothing to hide us...And keep your voice down..." She looked away, her shyness kicking in. "Maybe, ok?"

I give a grin.

"Ok.. Now finish showing me around the place, and maybe where I can change into uniform."

"Bathrppm is where you can change." Sera responded. "I'll show you there now if you like."

I nod, standing with my uniform under my arm.

"That would be nice."

Motioning to Staria, Sera led her just to the right to the women's bathrooms.
"Here we are. They didn't really think about privacy...but hey, it's the military."
She shrugged, setting her uniform on the sink. "Must dress fast and adjust and look pretty once you're decent; big doors to a women's bathroom, what the fuck were they thinking?"

I laugh and slide into my uniform, then do a little spin looking at myself.

"This things pretty snug, shows off my curves don't you think?"

I grin and flash a wink.

Sera blushes, turning her back to Staria and changing into her uniform quickly. She then turned to look.
"Great. Stripper nurse. Everyone is gonna start hitting on you." She sighed, but still smiled. She then started to get her hair under control and finally tied into a ponytail high on her head. When done, she sidled over to kiss Staria's cheek.
"Welcome to Archangel."

The words sort of brought a sense of fulfillment to my heart. No one was around so I pull her into quick kiss.

"I like the pony tail, it looks cute."

I walked away, watching the other as she left, then ducked behind a dumpster and blew the explosives, leveling the building. As it turned out, some Eclipse were upstairs in my room. Good. I then looked in the the Eclipse network, and... A ship. The SSV Archangel. I sent a message to the ship's general network, requesting a Kodiak pickup, and using my old confirmation code. It would work, I hoped. I the ran to the spaceport, and waited for a response or a ride.

I regained consciousness in a medical facility, or what I presumed was a medical facility. My head felt clear, and I could focus. Soft white linen covered me. The room was only slightly lit. I could make out the outlines of basic shapes and objects. I felt my face with my hand. My hand was cold, and my face warm. I couldn't remember where I had been, only flashes of cold and dark places. I looked over my shoulder at the window. It revealed a snowy landscape, soft and peaceful. I shifted in the bed, moving my legs and wiggling my toes.

I scanned the room looking for a clock. There wasn't one. I frowned, and looked for a call button. I found it, just under the right shoulder, but before I could press it, the door opened, and in came a very unprofessional looking doctor. He had a long white beard, and a pony-tail to match. I looked at his name-plate, on his chest:

Dr. Oehlberg.

He smiled at me as he said, "You've recovered quite well, Mr. Umbrulus. You'll be glad to know that you will be ready to leave the facility later today."

Sera retuned the kiss, then drew away.
"I have to do this; was the compromise to kinda screw regs ya'know?" She smiled. "Lets get you famiarized with the ship."

I nod.

'Lead the way."

As she turns away from me, I reach out giving a quick pinch to her butt again. I let out a giggle.

"Sorry."

She yelped again, then glared.
She then lead her out. "That way is the port lounge, that way starboard. That one." She points. "Has a poker table." She leads her around. "Here is the mess. Over down there is weapons. Over there is the XO's room....and here." She keyed a door open. "Is the medical bay. I guess it's where you'll work."

I nod taking this all in.

"So poker, do they play money? Or... strip?"

"Money." She rolled her eyes. "You only get to play strip with me." She blushed at her own words. "Uuuhh....Hanger bay!"

I laugh, and grin deviously.

"Alrighty then."

Sera led her to the elevator, then stopped.
Elevator.
Closed.
Staria.
Fuck.
Sera sighed and keyed it op. "I'll show you where the armory is."

I step inside the elevator and stand behind Sera, with a mischief grin.

Sera knew why she was back there.
There was no stopping her.
Sera just let her shoulder slump in defeat.
"Not so hard please." Was all she said.

I look at her with confusion on my face.

"I don't know what you're talking about..."

"You've been pinching me since we got on this thing..." She sighed.


Meanwhile, the Comm Officer looked up. "Captain, incoming message. N7. It's an old code, but it checks out."
The captain sighs. "Send a Kodiak, we'll send Barenziah to see what the deal is."
"Yes sir."

Barenziah and a team boarded said Kodiak three minutes later, and headed for Omega.

"I have not!"

I grin then smack Sera on the butt.

"Ok I have!"

I waited, smiling. It worked. I was finally getting off this hellhole.

I attempted to follow the Aliens, hoping to find out more about them. The problem was however, following them without being noticed. Stealth wasn't my strongest skill.

The Kodiak slid into the docking bay, and Barenziah stepped out with a few marines.
"What the hell are you doing here?" She demanded once the man would arrive.

Meanwhile, Sera led Staria around the Armory. "We got everything."

I look around, pretty impressed.

"Wow.... good thing I don't have to use these..."

I turn to her smiling.

"I'm a horrible shot with most things but a pistol."

Sera now decides to blush again. "Want training? I know my way around most guns here. I can help you with rifles." She grinned. "Harriers and Avengers and such."

I laugh a little bit.

"I'm a medic, I don't have the alpha killing instincts of a soldier.. like you."

I grin and look at her.

"You should have a basic grasp of them so you can defend yourself if need be. I don't want my...my grifriend to get killed. Ok?" She looks away, embarassed.

I smile at my new title come behind her wrapping her in a quick hug.

"That's so sweet of you Sera. I guess some training wouldn't hurt."

Sera rested her hands on Staria's.
"I just...want to make sure you have...every chance to make it back."

I give her a quick kiss on the neck.

"And how do you think I feel about you?"

"I have good armor and more guns. When I come out, people think twice. When you just got a pistol..." she sighed. "I just care about you is all..."

I nuzzle her neck.

"I know you do sweetie... It means a lot to me."

Sera closed her eyes, just enjoying it.
"It means a lot you got me off Omega...I...was just scared there. I was alone...no backup..." she backed closer to Staria. "Thank you."

I continue to nuzzle her neck before kissing her ear and letting go.

"Lets move on before things get too heated up."
