T20: High Law and Low Justice (IC Thread 2)

Quinn turns to regard the table with an icy glare. "Not a word. Not one word about what you just heard, understand? Not to anyone. Not yet. Especially you," he says, pointing at the excessively talkative Anaarsi, his eyes hardening even further [Intimidate +11].

Anaarsi gulps, while Eduardo simply says, "F--k," and reached for the bottle again.

Everyone in the rooms looks around and takes in the situation. You are sitting around the table. The galley, apparently unoccupied, despite the supposed dinner that should have been upcoming, is through an open door to port. The restaurant, and then the bar and casino, are aft through a closed door. To fore and port is the security door leading to the captain's and officers' quarters as well as the corridor to the bridge area.

After a few seconds, Eduardo gets up afterall. "Well, Jefe, you don't have to worry about me. I've got 200 creds in my wallet, and that's 180 more than I expected to have at this point in the trip. I'm off to the Pazak tables. Tomas? ...Saanath?"

Ruzz'koff looks at the Captain and holds his hands out in a pacific gesture, "I'm just here to ensure more people don't do rash and ill-advised things, whatever they might be. Now if anyone isn't going to do anything stupid and irrational I shall take my leave," he has no intention of returning to his cabin, but sees no reason to argue with her about that point. If necessary he will head in that direction and then branch off and scurry back to the dinner party the minute she is out of sight.

Looks at Zaed, then at the Captain - are they alone, and where is the Captain's weapon?

Spot = 0

"Irrational? Stupid? No. Rash and Ill-advised? We'll see. On your way."

Ruzz'koff doesn't see a weapon on the captain, until she passes him and he sees it tucked behind her into her belt. He has no real insight into what she's doing.

He gives a formal bow, stares at Zaed in a "not here, not now" way and then doubles round to head back to the dining room by an alternate route.

The captain looks up and notices her two dinner guests in the hallway before her.

"Return to your staterooms! " she barks in a commanding voice, "Leave the girl alone, unless you want her to get in more trouble. Now if you will excuse me..." She keeps walking, quickly as she speaks, and has passed Zaedhrarrg and is moving toward the bulkhead (which is right near the passengers' lift) that leads from the passengers' area to the crews' quarters and the sub-bridge.

Torn for a moment in his decision what to do, Zaedhrarrg then bounds after the captain and overtakes her, positioning himself in front of her. In his most accusing tone he adresses Captain Darius:

"How can you treat the poor Vyrkris this way? That's terribly ... mean of you!"
 

A slow grin spreads across Saanath's face. "I think that Mr Quinn has the right of it," he says quietly to himself.

"But I don't think that we ... " he breaks off mid sentence.

After a few seconds, Eduardo gets up afterall. "Well, Jefe, you don't have to worry about me. I've got 200 creds in my wallet, and that's 180 more than I expected to have at this point in the trip. I'm off to the Pazak tables. Tomas? ...Saanath?"

Saanath looks up at Eduardo. "Not tonight, Eduardo. I have lost enough money to Pazak already. But thanks for the offer."

[OOC: That would Intimidate at +2: 22]

To the surprise of Ruzz'koff, the captain actually stops to regard Zaedhrarrg. "She will be fine - It's better this way, though. If I'm not back by jump time, go check on her, make sure she's okay. Oh, and tell her roommate she's been bumped up to First Class. Now - out of my way.
 

OOC:
<I am a bush, I am a bush, I am a bush>

IC:
<Thinks> "Oh god. Yep, get angry with her. Because that will really help you know."
Ruzz'koff turns the corner and vanishes out of sight, still in earshot but ready to disappear if the captain approaches his position.
 


Still stunned by what he has just seen and heard and now really convinced that the MegaCorps are bad-to-the-bone Tomas sits silently seething

"No Pazak tonight friend" he replies to Eduardo and then glancing up at Quinn swallows "I'm going to bed.

But if anything happens" he speaks in a conspiratorial tone to Quinn "I'll be ready to help"
