Avast and Belay Me Hearties! (Invite)

[Silas Miu]

"Already?" Silas called out as he approached, his gear bag slung over his thin shoulders.

He stopped a few yards from the entrance to the ship, watching his new boss juggle a grenade. He was quite fond of displays of dexterity, juggling included, but grenades were not a typical choice for the act, and the sight of a grenade being tossed around carelessly gave him pause.

​

With a yawn, the young Nautolan stretched back.

As he came forward, his head bopped along in time with the Huttese pop that was trickling over his head-tails. A headset was looped around the lekku on either side of his head, the H-Pop coming from the HoloBoy Advanced that was starting to show signs of wear from where it was visible jutting from a pocket in his clothes. The seven-string hallikset was in the case between his legs, as the boy rode the public transport to the starport. He'd spent the night in a Nar Shadda youth hostel and, after that experience, was looking forward to getting some sleep in a crew bunk aboard a star cruiser.

Double bunk.

Quad bunk.

Any kind of bunk would be better than his accommodations last night. Which wasn't to say that Zak was pining for privacy. Growing up in Jedi Temples, he was accustomed to sharing space with a variety of personalities, races, or genders. It was more of the safety of the Jedi Temple that Zak found he'd taken for granted. And that definitely put a damper on good sleep.

Slinging the guitar case across his back, the Nautolan made his way to where the ship was parked.

His head-tails perked up slightly at the sight of [member="Kalinai Soluza"]. She could juggle, too!?

This was seriously the best boss ever.

That he'd had.

On Nar Shadda.

With a wave, the boy continued on his way to board the ship.

Since the new and wonderful crew had somewhat shrunken down to two, Kalinai dropped down. If the others were still interested they could quantum tunnel their way on board.

“Already, yes! There’s never a shortage of things for us to do, Silas, me old buddy. This one’s not too hard, a good shakedown for the crew!”

Zak was there too. “Zak! Squiddy, my boy. Welcome aboard. Let’s get going. Hopefully this mission won’t need your healing, but we can always do with inspirational music in a fight!”

And so the shuttle took off. Destination Flying Pineapple.

 

[Ria Misrani]

Jette had spent most of her night tinkering away, fixing her shades and working on schematics for a new pistol. It would work a little differently than your average slug. Although it would require her to hook up with an alchemist or two, the idea would be to completely spay or neuter the force user from actually being able to use the force, dealing both normal damage and force damage until they just stopped breathing altogether. Right now it was just a schematic she still had a lot of development to work on, and this is what pushed her into the late of the night.

Causing her to miss her shuttle, lacking a quantum tunnel she simply slipped her shades on and switched from signature to essence, and this let her see just where @Kalinai Soluza was going and of course the little Jedi guy [member="Zak Dymo"]. Jette conned her way into a shuttle yard and proceeded to hotwire her way in, and set the coordinates flying in pursuit of the blonde pirate's shuttle so that she too could be in a pineapple at the bottom of the sea.

[Khull]

A fog of smoke would mist out from the cockpit, with the pungent smell of shento cigar. Guess who was flying the shuttle! That right, someone was crazy enough to let the oversized house cat take the reigns of the ship. Actually it wasn't that crazy, Khull is an exceptional pilot among other talents. Cigar expertly secured between his whiskered lips as he puffed upon the delicacy while handling the yoke of the Shuttle. He would punch in security clearance codes into the command console that would let the Flying Pineapple know that her shuttle was coming back. An acknowledgement was hailed back, easing the Cathar's nervs as he maneuvered the shuttle towards the Corellian corvette they called home. Always good to know that one wasn't going to get snuffed out by friendly fire while making a return trip.

"Kaptain, ve arrre clearrr. ETA thrrree minutes to home!" The catharian pilot reported, his thick resonating voice echoed through out the shuttle.

He replaced the shento cigar back to its proper grip between his lips and comfortably inhaled and puffed the smoke as he went about his business. He looked at his scanners and noticed a irregularity. A ship was following there course. Normally it wouldn't be a cause for concern, but today the pirate queen was aboard and security caution had to be taken seriously. "Kaptain, ve have kompany!"

Kalinai forced her way up to the cockpit and flopped into the co-pilot’s chair.
She examined the scanner, chewing a fingernail. “Could be one of the new crew. Could be someone following us very badly. Could be a Tatooine Jedi Princess. Steady as she goes, Khull, we’ll see what happens.”

When they arrived at the Pineapple and started to disembark, Kalinai left the ship to greet those coming on board. Some of the crew looked over and then went back to work.
“Right! Welcome aboard the Flying Pineapple! Get settled in to your rooms and report with your gear to the main meeting area in thirty minutes. We’ve got a job to do.”

Said rooms had cheery labels on them, but were all quite small and plainly furnished…but often with bright pastel colours for the walls. It was probably a Kalinai thing.

It happened to be that of a new crew member, Jette had reached them in the end. Adjusting her glasses she took a look over at Kalinai and smirked, "boss." Then with her hands in her pockets proceeded to find her rock to sleep under. The shuttle Jette had grabbed was probably still useable, Jette only bumped into a few things, never claimed to be a pilot. Just a force bustin' lady, she managed her way to a workbench and proceeded to empty out her bag of gizmos and gadgets. Somethings, did work, most didn't she was still working on the power pack that she could wear that would attack force users directly, maybe even wrap around them a little. "Cathar," she greets to the pilot as she walks from one workbench to another moving things around.

[Thicer]

The large Selonian watched the Corellian Corvette out the viewport. She was guiding what seemed to be a light trade ship towards Nar Shaddar on a regular trade entry route. Of course that wasn't her real destination, ever since she'd heard that a pirate crew was hiring. Now Thicer was on a course that would look to keep her ship clear of the corvette but that would rapidly be changing.

As the shields lowered to accept the shuttle the small trade ship suddenly adjusted course and blasted through the shields. Setting the computer to land next to the shuttle Thicer got up and pulled the open vest on over her fur she grinned. It had been a perfect ambush boarding action and she felt the ship settle down on the deck.

As the ramp lowered she stepped out onto it and eyed the crew. Larger then all of them with the exception of the Kamionian and with her paws resting on two heavy blaster pistols the Selonian made an intimidating sight. "Which one of you is in charge here?" she barked out.
