A Band Apart.
#1109 - 2013-05-22 17:06:54 UTC  |  Edited by: Laudenum Hayes
Laudenum was stunned. The little brunette that stood up, belted out everything in a nanosecond, and then spun around and sat down caught Laud completely off guard. Had she been that transparent earlier? Her mind processed the conversation again, looking for anything to give her a clue. She had said that Random was her friend. She also said that she hadn't seen him for a while. What was needed here, was some careful diplomacy.

She walked up to the bar and glanced at a different bartender from that afternoon. She felt only a little foolish for her earlier childish behavior and had to continue to remind herself that "...more flies with honey,...". She could afford to enjoy a couple of drinks. She hadn't been 'out and about' in a very long time. She glanced over at the little brunette that had whirlwinded into her when she came in. She wore a fashionable jacket over a Quafe T-shirt. She was sipping something that Laud didn't recognize. A smile crossed her lips, more devilish than friendly. Would a little more hospitality get her to volunteer more information?

She turned back to the bartender who was looking at Laud with curious eyes. "Sorry," Laud responded, "just thinking what to order." She searched her memory trying to remember that drink that she had long ago. The one that caused her dorm mate to....

"I'd like two Afterburners and two Overheated Autocannons. Two beers as well, please." Laud said, smiling broadly to the bartender. The bartender looked nervously at Laud when she reviewed the order and returned a few minutes later with a tray. On the tray, two frosted duraglass bottles, two small shots of some pale blue liquor and two tumblers of a cloudy mixture. The tumblers had small devices attached to the sides. Just before drinking, you would activate the one time use igniter to cause the concoction to burst into flame. Experienced O/H.A/C. drinkers would consume it flame and all. She was a little out of practice, so would probably extinguish it first. When the bartender gave her the bill, Laud smiled. She would put it on Random's expense account.

She carried the tray to the table that the little brunette had claimed. She was watching the patrons and appeared to be making mental notes. Laud stepped into her view and levelled her most dazzling smile. "Hi!" she said, " Do you mind if I join you?" Before the brunette could answer, Laud had set the tray on the table and began handing out the drinks, one for each.

"Um....I'm not.." began the brunette.

"You'll like this! " Laud said, first holding up the shot of the blue liquid. She waited patiently until the brunette picked up her shot. "This primes the pump." Laud said, winking, and downed the shot in one glup. She waited until the brunette had imbibed hers and reached for the tumbler.

"Careful now, there's more than a fair number of these that blown up in the drinkers hand." Laud said teasing. Sheimi looked with horror, first at her tumbler, then at Laud's. Laud touched the igniter on the side of the tumbler and the drink burst into flames, drawing the attention of many of the nearby patrons. Laud watched the violet flames lick the glass and claw at the air. With a practiced puff of breath, the flames went out and she slammed the contents. It struck her throat like Ice and Fire and she winced involuntarily. It took her a moment and she felt the steam rise. She blew very carefully into the air a small puff of steam.

One of the after effects of the O/H.A/C. was the reaction to the afterburner. Unprepared drinkers would sometimes exhale the steam through their noses. It would play havok with the sinuses. She reached for the ice cold beer and sipped it to cool her throat. She savored the taste, and then looked to her table mate. Sheimi looked at the tumbler, glanced back at the redhead who appeared to be waiting for her to drink, and then back to the tumbler. She nervously picked up the tumbler and glanced over at the igniter. She touched it lightly and the drink burst into violet flames, again drawing several glances from the patrons. She moved it closer to her lips and looked inquiringly back to Laud. Laud nodded and Sheimi blow out the flames and slammed the contents. She swooned at the sensation. Vacuum cold mint with volcano hot spice. She gasped, an unsure smile crossed her face and then with a 'hickup' the steam escaped her mouth and swirled into a little ring. Sheimi gazed in wonder as the steam ring diffused into the general air of the bar. She redirected her attention to the redhead sipping beer in front of her.

"My name is Laudenum Hayes," she said offering her hand. "I'm looking for my business partner, Random McNally."

- Dammit!

As Yiole wakes up, her pad blinks with a warning that the control software is back to function and her pilot license is about to expire. She rushes through her morning routines and sends a quick message to Indah, warning her on the issue.

Then she goes downstairs, where a few patrons are already having breakfast. With the corner of an eye, Yiole sees a glass set ablaze and pouring violet flames at a corner of the bar, but she's in a hurry and doesn't misses a step to check what is going on.

Outside of the bar, Yiole walks to the nearest elevator, which drives her below to the Captain Quarters sector. She quickly takes the rollign carpets to speed up her advancement along the corridors, and finds her CQ. Yiole enters the CQ and quickly begins to undress as barriers rise around the pod, sheltering her from alien looks. With a last pull, Yiole removes her panties and enters the pod, starting the fill sequence while she picks up a shuttle from the hangar.

Once plugged and secured, Yiole waits for the pod to be inserted in the shuttle, while checking her assets finder. Effectively, there's a Pilot License EXtension at the Jita IV-4 station. Yiole sets up the navigation computer as the pod connects to the shuttle and Yiole feels the news systems being added on top of her conscious thoughts. Being a veteran capsuleer, the feeling of the ship being added to her mind instead of her body doesn't makes her miss a beat, and she quickly launches the shuttle into space.

Locking on the appropiate gate, the shuttle warps and Yiole feels the usual blurriness when the pod interface feeds her with a "tunnel" view of her progress through space. Seh listens to sounds and sees images without her ears nor her eyes, directly feed as an interface so her mind can deal with the sensor input... an interface which changes each now and then, to make ships look prettier (some CCP overlords just must earn their salaries) and planets look bigger, picturing things that most space jockeys never have seen with their own eyes. After reaching the gate, Yiole mentally gathers herself for the jump, as a few seconds go by and her spacefaring body comes one with itself again. Human mind takes the jump way better than the systems aboard a ship, and as a capsuleer IS his ship, each jump leads to a disconenct and reconnect. That used to make capsuleers vulnerable to exiting a gate, until a cloaking projector started hiding the incoming ships.

Right after jumping, Yiole starts warping to the next gate, breaking the cloaker lock and showing her shuttle in the new system. A jump after another, she traverses enormous distances until reaching the busy Perimeter gate. There, a pitched sound warns her that another ship is locking and scanning hers. Yiole quickly looks at the hold log and sees the shuttle is carrying some random trash she left there at a some forgotten time, and she ignores the locked target on her combat interface as she jumps into Jita.

That early in the morning to most capsuleers, the system is just half busy, with not more than 1,300 contacts in the local comms array. Yiole checks back the license records and sees there are still 71 minutes left before her license is revoked, but, never is too soon to extend one. Yiole's shuttle warps to the station and is greeted with the usual random chaos of ships busily going in and out, and for the last seconds before being picked up by the dockign beam, Yiole listens to gunfire on her interface. "Authomatic 425s, probably", she guesses.

Inside the station, Yiole senses how the shuttle connects to the camera drone at the hangar bay, but she can't be bothered with that. She opens the inventory interface (interfaces within interfaces within interfaces, the life of a capsuleer often looks like a unromantic spreadsheet) and locates the PLEX. If it could be traded in the commoner market, it would suffice to buy an average business, with all its assets and a hundred workers. But in capsuleers' land, it merely allows the assigned pilots (not more than 3 per billing account, and only 1 active at any given time) to pilot capsule ships for 30 days. Yiole activates it and CONCORD delivers a receipt and reports the new expiracy date for her license and Indah's.

- Ready to go for another 30 days and 65 minutes -mutters Yiole in her mind. Then she opens the inventory again and transfers the shuttle's cargo to her main hangar hold, increasign the amount of garbage stored inside Jita 4-IV by one billionth of the total.

Then Yiole undocks and warps to the Perimeter gate, rushing back home, and it will take a few jumps until she remembers, for the second trip to Jita in a row, that she should had bought some Mjolnir light missiles before leaving...

- Dammit!

"My name is Laudenum Hayes," she said offering her hand. "I'm looking for my business partner, Random McNally."

Sheimi is stunned. Apart from her throat feeling like it had never been before, the drink she has just ingested felt oddly appealing to her. "I'm going to have to have that again sometime" She thought, as her mind slowly clouded from slight intoxication. "I'll repeat myself, I'm looking for Random and you said you could help" Laud insisted, trying to get a answer out of the now slightly tipsy brunette girl sitting in front of her. "Well, I don't remember where Random said he was going" Sheimi said. "Great", Laud thought, "another dead end". She sat back impatiently looking to see what the girl would do. "But, however, I do know who may be able to find him. Yiole was it? Yea, she is pretty good with him... and i know what she looks like." Laud leaned forward, intently listening. "Yea, i know what she looks like and i know she will be able to help you".

Right as this was happening, Yiole walks through the doors with a look of relief, as if she had just finished something drastically important. "Ah, there she is!" Sheimi whispers to Laud and pointing secretively so only Laud would know what she was doing. "But she is an odd duck that one, if you are to talk with her, do it carefully. She can be... interesting." Laud finally felt this girl she has just bought drinks for was useful. She stood up and said "Thanks, You've helped me... kinda" and strutted off toward Yiole.

"I wonder if i should have told her... oh well, too late now" Sheimi muttered to herself. She pulled out her datapad and looked through her read mail, and noticed a mail she had read before, but forgotten about due to the drinks. A mail that would have been important. A mail with the sender of "Random McNally". "I'm sure it wasn't important" she muttered, talking a swig of the free beer she had just received to maybe make the burning sensation in her throat go away. "Probably".

I'm so so sorry, The monocle fills you with darkness. Seven gave me the strength to overcome that darkness and I will forever be grateful for that.
