Dariel stands still for a little and attempts to push her away from his thoughts.
"Well, to me yes."

Dariel walks up over to Iceball and taps him on the shoulder.
"Uh, why are you grabbing Arek?"
*Suddenly notices that I'm wrapped around Arek, then quickly sits on Dariel's shoulder instead.*
"What do you talk about?"

*Arrives at the shipyards around the pad. I stop and stand there with my mouth hanging open in shock. I raise my hand and point towards a somewhat scuffed-up looking ship with an jet-black exterior, and the word 'Obsidian' printed on its side in english, The Nova Porilad^ dialect of the Torikan language, and the Kraahk^^ dialect of the Nuaexip language.*

"Th-th-th-the Ob-ob-obsidian!" I stammer, still in shock, "I thought I'd never see it again! It's still got the scorch marks from when we had that run-in with those Frontier Sector^^^ slavers too! I've gotta buy it!"
*Runs forward to a high-gravity adapted torikan male, wolf variety, and start talking quickly and animatedly in some strange dialect of the Torikan language.*

*Finishes talking with the heavyworlder Torikan, runs back, and pulls some kind of chip out of a pocket.*

"I can't believe it! I own the Obsidian again!"

^((Adopted homeworld of the Torikan))
^^((In addition to being a mild oath, it's the largest moon in the Tenorias system and a major mining colony))
^^^((The Frontier Sectors are, as the name implies, the lawless 'borderlands' {Or, more accurately, Borderspace} of the CSE))

*The Tyrant motions to the bracelets.*
"So, would you accept them? As to make a set?"

*It then turns to Yunno.*
"As a few of us are gathered here, I ask again if you would care to share your plight? Some things are easier to bear if weight is shared."

((OY.))
Dariel finds himself getting a huge hug from Thera.
"That mural..It's awesome! You make a spider proud," she says happily.
((Someone DOES need to draw it.))
--
Over at the palace, Kata and Ivy are flying that way too.
They wave at Tenshi.

Jack is...somewhere else.

@Taricus: "Kraahk yeah!"

*Opens up the landing ramp via remote.*

"Well, here goes nothing!"

*Walks up the ramp.*

"It's just like I remember it!"

*The inside of the ship is moderately roomy for a spacecraft of its size. The ramp leads up into a basic cargo hold, with a bulkhead at the far end.*

*Walks over to bulkhead and presses a panel on the wall beside it. The bulkhead opens, and I slip through, going into the rest of the ship.*

*On the other side of the bulkhead is the a short hall which ends in a door which leads to the common room. The walls curve up to the left and the right, and everything that isn't part of the floor is strapped or tied down  A ladder in the middle of the floor leads up into the control room for the ship, which consists of a crash couch with various controls in front of it, and a detachable VR helmet designed to fit some kind of alien. I take disconnect the helmet, and opening a hatch in the wall, rummage around for a while. I pull out one designed to fit my head, and plug it in. I place the alien helmet into the wall opening.*

"Well, Let's get going!"

*Sits in the crash couch and straps myself in, puts on the helmet, and starts using the control console. There's the an almost imperceptable hum as the toroidal habital portion of the ship starts spinning. The ship slowly lifts off the ground, and starts accelerating.*

"You may want to get back to the common room. This is going to be a little bumpy, and once the drum gets spun up, it's gonna be a little disorienting to move from Zero-G to 0.5 Gs"

*Starts speaking in some dialect of Torikan, apparently getting clearance for the surface-to-orbit launch.*


((The Obsidian produces artificial gravity the same way the discovery did in 2001: a Space Oddyssey, by spinning a portion of the ship to produce centripetal force.))
