just stand behind me i cast a pretty long shadow

[shorttermed]

You
You're offering to be my shade?

[orionids]

oh? well, I'm all ears.

[shorttermed]

A quack has swindled money from the poor of Nayara. If we find him and he returns their money, we're promised a hefty sum for our efforts.

[firstmagnitude]

yes!

[deadsirius]

i'm so happy. i've been so bored lately.

[orionids]

seems simple enough. sounds right up our alley, anyway. did they give us any leads on where he might be hiding out?

[shorttermed]

I rather like stealing from the rich and giving back to the poor. It feels almost honorable. He was last spotted in the neutral system. We go where he spends his credits.

[shorttermed]

I am unsure as to how effective this will be but I appreciate your offer. We shall test this when we're on ground again.

Thank you.

[firstmagnitude]

im not good at stealing like jan and siri
and i cant just buy you things like ras
so
you can just stand behind me and ill protect you

[shorttermed]

I don't especially like giving over any sort of control. I suppose I can attempt to adjust with this partnership.

[shorttermed]

I admit I need more protection than the others do. How shall I help you out in return?

[firstmagnitude]

ill take the usual payment of cuddles and head pets!

[shorttermed]

Is that all? Then I can provide that much. You can put your head in my lap any time.

[orionids]

more honorable than a lot of things.

sounds good, I'll let Jan know to start plotting a course so we can get ready to intercept.

[firstmagnitude]

thats all i need
you have the best lap here

[shorttermed]

Set course for a very glossy
casino.

[shorttermed]

Do I!

​​[​ she is so quietly pleased. ​]

Well, you are welcome to it.

[firstmagnitude]

you do!
its very soft and warm and comforting

[shorttermed]

What else do you like to do?

[orionids]

somehow I'm not surprised.
irritated, but not surprised at all.

[shorttermed]

I think the boys will have fun at least.

[orionids]

so long as they keep their wits about them. I'd rather not get run out before we actually get anything done.




again.

[shorttermed]

I shall give them a stern talking-to beforehand.

[orionids]

thank you. I get the feeling it'll stick better if it's not coming from me for once.
