RAC IC for The Warrant

Tomorrow I'm turning 49 and I'm celebrating tonight that it isn't fifty yet. Also that I've lived this long. Suck it, ex-husband who swore being in the RAC would kill me young.

Anyone who wants to drink with me, bring it. No singing. No presents. Cake will probably happen. Someone get me a cake.

Thank you to everyone who participated in the Secret Santa exchange! And to my helpers who pitched in at the last minute and helped give out names and presents to people. You're the best ♥

[Valkyrie]

That includes you too :*

[Liam + Rhia]

How are you going on the TP purchasing front, Rhia?

[Lionel]

Hey, I was just wondering if you needed anything or had any questions! I know that we can take some getting used to, and that's coming in under regular circumstances. Did the earplugs help?

[Raine]

I'm gathering that you're back at HQ since I saw Campbell's post about sparring? Were you still interested in giving me some of your time?

Tell me your happiest memory.

Anyone up for a few rounds in the ring?

[Engineers]

Are we doing poker night before we all get scattered throughout the Sol again? When works best?

To whom it may concern: Thank you for the dragon fire cracker left ignited on my desk. When security has scoured through camera footage, please accept a token of my appreciation.*

As of this morning, you will be welcoming one Lionel Owen aboard your ship as a probationary RRI candidate until the 3rd of May this year (2073). He is under no condition to be treated with disrespect, as per agency policy, and any indiscretions committed against him are punishable by suspension. In this probationary period, he is to be treated as a full-fledged member of your crew regardless of skill level. He will introduce himself to you all shortly.

Questions and concerns may be directed to myself or Captain Vance. Have a good day.

LIONEL.

I trust you have reviewed the company handbook, Owen?

(* do i even have to clarify she's being sarcastic, bc... )

TEQUILA SUNRISE & BAHAMA MAMA.

Happy New Year, all. Here's to another one. Everyone have a good night?

NICOLA.

You got a minute?

[Tequila Sunrise]

I'm flying into Tijuana tonight. I was planning on sticking around for the party and that's what I did.

Also I got into a slight (emphasize: slight) dust up with a couple of Cuba Libre arseholes at the party.

[Ireland]

Thought you were coming last night?

[B52]

I'm coming back to the ship tonight.

I need someone who can take care of themselves (and me as well) if necessary to accompany downtown sometime since the kidnappers weren't nice enough to wait until I'd finished my Christmas shopping first. I can compensate you for your time by either cooking or baking you a dish of your choice, or by giving you some pointers at the shooting range if applicable.

[Star]

How are you holding up?

[Ireland]

Plans for the Christmas period?

[Sawyer]

How are you What's your captain's preferred poison? Also, welcome back.

Weirdest Christmas themed thing you've ever seen?

Since my plans to swing by Tijuana for a quick visit last week were interrupted by a couple of cheap trick pendejos, I am making the offer again, but in a more timely fashion. We'll be heading to the colony for the holidays, and there is always room for anyone who wants a ride, whether it is to visit family or just because we all need a little vacation.

The plan is to leave on the 23rd, so you will all have time to fulfill your Secret Santa obligations, and the Tequila Sunrise will stay through the weekend to head back to Ganymede on that Monday the 28th if you want to return with us.

Please let me know in advance so we can make sure beds are made and provisions are stocked, ok?

[TEQUILA SUNRISE]

You are all welcome to come, of course, and my home is welcome to all of you for Christmas dinner and mass. After out little adventure with the kidnappers, I'm sure we could all use a little R&R. But you are also welcome to stay behind or go be with your own families, too. I'm sure between whoever comes along and the additional agents, we'll be able to fly the old girl just fine.

She's sounding pretty good lately, no? Those new engine parts must be singing carols for the holidays down in the engine room.
