Akira was officially wiping everything that'd happened so far t'day from his brainpan. Well, everything after learning they had a new job.. That was still good news. Just tha rest of it that made him all twitchy. And twitchy was bad when ya had to be ready to work at any given moment.
He took a seat on the stairs, to lazy to climb all the way to the top to sit on the cat walk itself, and waited for someone to wander through.

Emerald was looking for her cats, she had three and they were as much part of her family as the rest of the crew. She was searching for the little buggers as she passed Akira on the stairs; she got to the bottom and spun around facing him, her frilly skirt playing circles in the air with her little bit of the spin. A giggly smile was displayed on her face as she did, "Ni How, N' how is me brilliant Mechanic doin' so far today?" She asked in a perky tone.
greasy_akira
"Wei." Akira stared down at her, grin on his face. He didn't figure it likely he'd ever get tired of being called brilliant. "Doin' just fine, Cap." Then with his normal curious, nosiness. "Hows a'come ya were up an' on the catwalk?"

"Was looking for Roslyn, Thaad, and Nim ... Looking for cats up on the cat walk." She made a silly face with the last part. The cats were a rare breed, mostly only found on Sihnon unless bread and bought in other places. Roslyn and Thaad are mates, and Nim is their offspring. Nim is a little over two years old and the other two have been with Emm for a while now. Emerald takes advantage of the pretty penny for the kittens whenever Roslyn has any, though she kept Nim because she thought it was only fair and the fact she feel in love with her from the get-go. Emerald sells most the offspring to those that will pay. The cats amongst a few other unique qualities are extremely intelligent, even more so than most cats, and live longer than others as well.
"By any chance you haven't seen umm have you?? ... We playin' hide and seek." She told him with a small smirk on her face.

Akira grinned, thinkin' to himself that he shoulda know that. But that was alright, 'cause seeing her silly face was always a fun experience.
Tilting his head a bit, he grinned wider. "I may have seen a one of 'em," he hinted. Then all serious, "but Cap, ifin' yer playin' a game, it don't seem right a for me ta tell ya where I saw 'em head to."
drunkincapngal
She nodded a semi-serious look on her face, "I suppose that be true... Though" A sly little smirk played upon her face now and she pointed with her finger indicated she was going to add something to the point-of-the statement. She walked back up the steps, stopping on the one beneath where he sat. "If 'n you weren't doin' anythin' and you played with us, well then it would be just fine." She gave him a look with a raised brow, and a sort of puppy dog face. Was her way of asking him to play with her, she liked her games; she knew none of the three would mind. Thee cats like Akira he was more free spirited and kind, than some of the others on ship were sometimes.

He watched her climb back up the stairs, tilting his head back a bit to look at her face better. He wasn't entirely prepared, or entirely surprised by her words. He had to wonder, though he was fairly certain she did, if Emm knew just how effective that face was. Even if he would have been busy, he would have stopped to play. Not that he really minded a break from work or anything.. especially one that came attached with a game.
"Reckon a game sounds fun," he said, trying to play it cool. "'N two of us lookin' fer 'em, sure beats one lookin'." Grinning up at her one last time, he scrambled to his feet. All clumsy and no grace to it. "Lead away, Cap. Saw lil' Nim headin' that'a way," he said pointing in the direction that lead out of the cargo bay.
drunkincapngal
She grinned widely happy at his answer. She held the giggle in, the one that was in response to him standing up. Emerald skipped down the stairs and to the doorway that Akira pointed to, was a few ways out and this one lead to a winding hall and the lower end of the ship. She was humming some song in her head as she walked along, eyes searching carefully along the floor.
Then few feet from a twisting corner, was a little striped tail. She stopped pointing with her head and a smirk to it, showing Akira. Then almost as if waiting, or teasing the two big people, Nim poked her head around making a squeaky meow sound. Then as Emm skipped forward the cat dashed out of sight.
greasy_akira
Still grinning, he shook his head and followed after her. Though he sounded a lot louder then she did, seeing as he practically stomped down the stairs.
He nearly collided into her, his feet skidding, when she stopped. It took him a second to follow behind the two, Nim's squeaky meow cause him a chuckle. Then he was dashing right behind them. Since Emm had her eye on Nim, his were darting around for the other two. With a grin, he skidded to a stop yet again. "Hey Cap," he said quietly, keeping his eye on the pair of whiskers sticking out from behind the door frame. "Whiskers, Cap," he called out in a whisper.
drunkincapngal
Emm turned to look at the door frame. She smiled a wide giggly smile. "I'll snaggle Nim... she's just there." Emm pointed behind a door that was off and diagonal from the other door frame. "You snaggle that-there-one... n' then we find the last kitty. Though I imagine ..." Her eyes shifting around a little. "Some where close." She smiled widely again. She was whispering the whole time, she explained it like she would a plan of action for a job or something of the like. With official-ness sounding in her voice.
greasy_akira
Akira nodded, soaking in what she said just like he did any plan. Smiling he gave a thumbs up to show he understood and was game. Smart as her cats were though, he doubted he'd catch the one behind the door unless it wanted to be caught.
One last grin to the Cap, then he headed toward the door. Moving as quietly as he could, he dropped to the floor and darted halfway around the door. "Gotcha kitty!" He grinned, reaching to scoop up Thaad, only to have him dart underneath him and out the room.

Neve was sitting at his desk, sifting through the responses to his ad when he felt something soft and warm brush his leg. He started for a moment, but laughed and smiled when he look down and saw it was only one of the captain's many cats. Picking up the creature he stroked it gently, rubbing underneath it's chin. "What have I told you about entering my shuttle without knocking?" He asked it, smiling. "I do believe that is against the rules." He said standing, still holding the cat to him. "I'll let it pass this once." He commented jokingly to the now purring cat.
Petting the cat as he began out his door, in search of the captain, he commented idly to the happy creature. "Let us see if we can find your mother, shall we." He paused a moment hearing voices in the distance and listened to see if he could tell who they belonged too. After a minute he was sure that Captain Storm was one of the voices he heard. Approaching the two he saw another cat scamper away and he smiled. "I believe this belongs to you?" He commented smiling, still petting the creature held gently in his arms.

Emerald had twisted herself in a dance around the doorway, and snaggled Nim before she could wiggleout of her reach. She gave the kitty a raspberry and then giggled as she walked with Nim back to the hall. She sort of laughed at Thaad and Akira.
Emerald's gaze fell on Neve with a smile. "Aww he found Roslyn." She told Nim in a silly sort of baby voice. "Yes I believe she does." She smiled telling Neve. "We's just been playin'" She sort of told him in explanation.
greasy_akira
Akira grinned up from where he was on the floor, and waved to Neve a little. "Wei!" He wiggled around then until he was back on his feet and lookin' for Thaad. "Means I still have-ta find where Thaad done run off to." Grinning, "he apparently wasn't quite done playin'."
[Bad username: neve sharan]
Neve smiled and nodded, still holding the cat. "They are delightful at that, aren't that?" He asked. He actually enjoyed the fact that the captain kept pets aboard the ship. He had spent the first week luring one of the felines in with some scraps left over from dinner, and had enjoyed the occasional company since then. He never admitted this to anyone of course, be even a companion grew lonely for companionship. Sometimes it was hard for him in a world where he so clearly was the sore thumb.
"I heard you calling though, and didn't want you to worry." He explained, offering her Rosyln.
drunkincapngal
"Yes, they are!" Emerald smiled real proud like of the comment.
Emerald smiled take Roslyn, "Sheh Sheh." Though Emerald imagined she wouldn't have worried about her none. Soon as Akira catches Thaad Emerald would take and feed them. She was a very watchful mother, though sometimes the crew needed more attention than even the cats. And that was sometimes amusing, but she loved all the same.
"Any luck with Athens?" She asked side handedly, she knew if he found something of interest that he would inform her. She was asking more of a 'making conversation' than take note for business reasons.
[Bad username: neve sharan]
Neve shook his head. "No. I think I shall simply wait until your tasks are finished and find something a little more... civilized." He admitted. He was a good companion and certainly not in the need of money immediately, and therefore he could afford to be more particular about whom he was with.
"But I thank you for the opportunity." He said nodding his head. "And I shall wait until your job is done. I have business that I shall attend once we reach paquin." He said, though he needn't discuss his buisness with the captain. "How long might we be staying once we reach paquin, might I inquire?"
drunkincapngal
Emm nodded her head. "Alright, I understand at that. Though I had figured I'd be given you the option if'n you had wanted to take it. And you're welcome, really though no need ta thanks me. We was goin' to be near the place anyhow. Extending everything I can... well that's me. Keepin' us all with the opportunities within grasp." She wasn't even sure she knew exactly what she had just said, and so she made a slightly odd face. She chuckled while shaking her head some.
Emm wouldn't expect him to discuss his business with her, it was a good thing they had going. The each to their own, yet in the same 'boat' at other times. Not boat as in ship, but as in situations... the sharing of things needing to be shared.
"I imagine we shall be there least four days, perhaps longer depending upon a few things. If'n you need longer just let me know and I'll see about accomindatin'." She smiled, glancing over her shoulder looking to where Akira and Thaad got off to.
greasy_akira
Well Akira was all the way down the hall, most of his body bent around the door frame. He was still on his hands and knees, and if you listened quietly you could hear him calling Thaad, practically beggin' the cat to show himself. Thaad however had darted back around and was sitting closer to Emm and Neve.
[Bad username: neve sharan]
Neve gave the captain a half bow at her accomodating offer. "I thank you Captain, I shall let you know promptly if more time is needed." He straightened and then smiled, spotting Thaad sitting between Akira and where he and the Captain were. Looking down the hall he called out softly to the lad, "I do believe your charge has evaded you Akira." He said, a smile apperant on his face despite his best efforts to keep it in check.
drunkincapngal
Emm smiled with a bit of a nod. "Alright, that sounds just fine to me." She followed Neve's line of sight and giggled a bit when she saw where Thaad was sitting. "Yeah, Love he's back this a-way." Clearly Thaad was still wanting to play. Emm smirked when the two cats in her arms purred softly and then squealed a bit. The smirking came when Thaad squealed back.
greasy_akira
Akira turned, thumping his butt onto the floor, and looked at the other two. He looked between Thaad and them, trying to pout but unable to stop grinning. "I done been out smarted by a cat." Then to Thaad, "ya rebuild a Trace Compression Block engine, then I'll start worryin' 'bout it."
He stood then, and walked over to scoop up the cat. Who he was fairly sure was laughing at him. Not that he much blamed the critter. Suppose he deserved a laugh, making the greasy man crawl around after him.
[Bad username: neve sharan]
Neve chuckled at the young mechanic's comment to the cat, his hands on his hips now. "It was a good showing Akira. You'll get him next time I'm sure of it." He said, kindess in his voice.
drunkincapngal
Emerald chuckled, "Yeah if he starts buildin' things let know shall you!?!" She winked at Akira as he held Thaad in his hands. She was also sure all three of the cats had been laughing at him. "Well off to feed the critters." She told Neve with a smile. Hoping Akira would follow because she didn't want to juggle all three.
greasy_akira
Akria smiled at Neve. "Ya think?" He held Thadd up, and looked the cat right in the eyes, "here that critter, next time I'll get'cha." Then he snuggled him back into his arms, and shook his head. "Guess I best be followin' the Cap, since I've got one of 'em in my arms still." Grinning at the other man, "see ya at dinner, yeah?"
