Space Station named Defiant

First topic message reminder :

The two shuttles both grabbed the rogue shuttle in their tractor beams and together towed her back to the shuttle bay where more security officers were ready and waiting to question her.

"Let's get this stuff and get back to the ship. I totally promised Stellan a drink anyway." Matt sighed.

Kay nodded. [Try not to get him too drunk]

"aww but I really wanna see what he's like drunk!"

Kay shot him a stern look.

Matt nodded. "I'll be careful."

They'd get their shopping, which Matt would dutifully disappear into pocketspace.

Shane would take the pictures as he had promised Ellie, then would follow them back to the shuttle to return to Vestia

Matt would totally pose for photos. Kay would just roll his eyes and stay out of the frame.

Once they had everything, they'd head back to Vestia then.

"You guys go on ahead, I want to stop by and see Armin and his family again. Work out how we could get them to Vestia"

Matt nodded. "Good idea, oh man, scary spider lady was awesome. I wanna buy her a drink... in a totally platonic way of course heh."

Kay smiled softly [We can catch a taxi. IN fact, while we're doing that, we could ask about any shuttles large enough to accommodate three vavare. They may have something we could rent or hire.]

"Yeah good point... the guys can probably fit in one of our shuttles but... yeah. headroom and all that."

Shane nodded and smiled "Yeah, I'll ask if they have any plans and let you know what we come up with."

Kay nodded. [Good luck Shane. We'll see you soon. Please don't get arrested again.]

"Not unless it's totally for beating the crap out of anti robot assholes." Matt grinned.

Kay shook his head. [No Matt, no.]

"what?"

[Just no.]

They headed off to return to Vestia then. --to vestia--

Shane waved then headed for the shop

A brown skinned, blue haired vavare male was hanging sale signs in the windows. [closing down sale: everything must go] and similar.
Inside Armin was sorting items on hangers and shelves.

The blue haired man turned and bowed his head to Shane. "Greetings to you friend."

"Greetings, um. I'm Shane is Armin back yet" he asked kindly

The male nodded. "He is inside." He finished hanging signs and lead the way inside. "Please come, you are welcome. Armin, you are being asked after."

Armin looked up from folding garments and bowed his head to Shane.
"Hello again friend!"

"Hi Armin" Shane said with a smile. "I came to ask about any plans you may have made about getting to Vestia."

"None yet, we were hoping to clear stock as much as possible but of course, this depends on how soon you and your friends intend to leave." He bowed his head graciously.

"Your offer of transportation is extremely generous." the other male told him. "We do not wish to delay your plans however, or intrude in any way."

Shane nodded and smiled at them both. "Yeah, Kay and Matt and I were talking about that and we figured the best way would be to use a larger shuttle for gettine all of you up there, since your sister is so tall. We don't want to make her uncomfortable on the way. As far as time, we have enough of that, so when ypu are all ready."

Armin nodded. "Thank you."

"How soon can we leave?" Berit appeared in the doorway to the back rooms.

"We must try to clear as much stock as possible, scrape together enough funds." Trygve protested.

"He is correct sister, our lease does not expire for another week at least."

"Lease be damned, what are they going to do? We can leave any time we want." Berit folded her arms.

Armin bowed his head. "Give us 24 hours." He told Shane.

Shane nodded and sent the information to Kay then looked to the vavre again. "I'll arrange the transport for you all and whatever you don't sell in the meantime."

Armin bowed his head gratefully. "Thank you friend."

"Yes, we hope to be able to repay such generosity in some way. If you need any tailoring done, do not hesitate... " Trygve began.

Berit sighed. "24 hours then, our thanks." She also bowed her head.

Shane grinned and bowed to them. "That is what friends are for." He said cheerfully.

"We trust Armin's assessment that you and your ship are good honest people, and we look forward to a chance to meet the rest of your crew and see this marvelous ship of yours." Trygve told him.

Shane smiled and nodded "Yeah, we do try to be kind when we can. " Shane said rhen headed for the door "So, I'll see you tomorrow and we can head out and you can meet everyone else."

The three spiderkin bowed their heads and waved.

"We will see you soon friend!" Armin called. "thank you again!"

Shane waved to them then left, looking to his tablet to find a place to rent a large shuttle for the next day.
