A soft smile crossed her lips, and she nodded some. ” Sheh Sheh The woman didn’t say that often, and so she really did mean it. And she might actually surprise him one day by taking him up on that. In that manner in which he meant it of course, Of course she thought of Ace for a moment, and sighed wishing she knew why he’d left the ship. Emerald hadn’t even told everybody yet. But, that was cause the Captain Lady was planning on a big briefing introducing new crew, and informing those that would have known them, that Ace and Neve were both taking some time off ship. The two women had spoken about it, and the Captain told Monica why Neve had cleared out his shuttle. But, not why Ace had wandered off with Luggage. The Red head thought it was stupid because they hadn’t even another pilot lined up, because that applicant for the Co-pilot position never returned Emeralds second message.
She leaned her head on his shoulder some, sort of in a way returning the affection. She really did appreciate his friendly manner; she needed it even if she’d never admit to it. Monica hadn’t ever been one to get too many hugs from many people. But, Kira was kind of like a teddy bear, at least that was what she was starting to think of him as. She needed that friendly shoulder to lean on; she hadn’t really let anyone be that for her in a long while. She was picky, but, glad that she’d picked Akira. He seemed to understand better than she would have thought.
Monica nodded; “Well” She looked at the empty tool box, and then the different sized tools. “Which ones do you use the most often? I’d place all the larger ones ta the bottom, ‘cept for the ones ya’ll need out regularly, smaller ones over da larger ones and the other ones on da top.” She said in somewhat of a shrug, “Or, less ya got another method of keepin’ them. That’d ya use to… it’s what ever works for ya best.” She chuckled “But that’s how I got the guns, larger ones on the racks in the back of the lockers, smaller ones near the front.” She laughed some, to each their own tools.
