Let's head to my room to get out some... agression.

*Jakob hisses and flaps harder then starts a glide that catches him up to Maiev*
Jakob: Of course I can!

*Maiev blinks even further away with each blink and smiles*
M: Oh can you now?

And here I thought you wanted to spar...

I can feel that you're too excited for that now.

*commissar picked up Nova and stood, looking into her eyes*

Unless you're scared?

*Jakob hisses again and goes into a dive before opening his wings and brushing the grass with his underside then starts returning to the height he was once at*
Jakob: No, but can you do that?

Jake: For the last six years, I thought I was dead. My friends and family gone, and I was in some form of hell or purgatory... My memories slowly burned away as I became a zombie, and I just wandered... and survived...

*He takes a drag.*

Jake: I don't think I smiled once when I was there... How could I? There was no hope... only mutant animals or worse... then I found a door, and that was the first time I smiled ...for the first time in the last six years.. and that door could of took me to the pits of hell! But I still smiled... I guess I smile for hope.. I hope to see my father, to see Oy... Maybe I am being naive. But hope got me here, so I will smile.

*Jake looks at Denny in the eyes.*

Jake: I hope to make you smile one day, Denny..

*Looks Jake in the eyes back*
I hope you do too.
*Takes another drag from the cigarette and leans down on the grass*
I hate sobering up before the hangover.

*Maiev raises an eyebrow and blinks back onto Jakob's back*
M: Touche.

*I defiantly stare at Hunter*
I fear nothing

*commissar carried Nova with ease, bringing her to his bedroom*

Prove it.

*Blake shakes his head*

Blake: (Not even a full day...)

*Blake has managed to fix the dint Denny made and walks up to his room to sleep*

Blake: (I wonder how long it will take Denny to kill him after I tell her?)

*Leo Has departed and is out killing gak*

Alright then.
*I leap nimbly out of Hunters grip and shove him onto the bed*
*the fun begins*

*commissar is shoved and has his fun with Nova, being VERY rough with her*

*Jake nods, and leans down as well.*

Jake: I can grab you some water, and some bread... my dad always said those are good hangover remedies.

*He debates on talking with Cal, but after looking at Denny decides to stay a bit longer.*

Jake: Sorry about your day..

*Jakob nods proudly and after several more minutes begins his decent towards a entrenchment where Reinhardt's huge frame can be seen standing on the forward bank looking at something in the woodline*

*Cal has been joined in the kitchen by his family and Quetz is cooking them all French Toast and Sausage*

Don't be. I broke it off for a reason, and that's that. I'll get over it.
*Stretches on the ground and closes eyes*
Don't feel entitled to staying here for me. I won't hurt myself, even I know I'm better than that.

*Maiev is too busy staring at the sky to notice anything*

Jake: Well.. I'm glad.. guy seems like a ass to start kissing someone right after a breakup..You don't need him.

*Awkwardly looks away as Denny stretches, trying not to stare at her frame.*

Jake: Oh I know! Wasn't worried about you hurting yourself... jus... just like hanging out with you.

*He smiles.*

*Jakob comes to a landing in a cleared spot in the camp and several soldiers watch Maiev warily*

That's good to know, thank you.
*Takes out a brand new pack of cigarettes, and offers one to Jake*
Last packet sold from Eridanus II. World got glassed two years ago by the covvies. I've kept it ever since. Apparently they did good tobacco.

*Maiev slides off Jakob and starts walking towards Reinhardt*
*Ignores all the stares*

*Reinhardt is standing, looking over the top of the wall. He turns and frowns at Maiev*
Reinhardt: Are you feeling up to this? I thought Hoffman hurt you...

M: Your wife used something on my. I'll be fine. Now dress me up Scotty.
*Waits*

*Reinhardt nods understandingly*
Reinhardt: I understand now... We had to have a uniform made for you. We didn't have one that would fit someone so tall and... gifted, shall we say.
*He nods to a tent*
Reinhardt: You'll find both it, and some privacy in there.

*Jake takes the offered cigarette and lights it.*

Jake: Thanks.. give it a try

*Jake lights the cigarette, and takes a long drag.*

Jake: Very nice.. When you say glassed, what do you mean?

Plasma bombardment. They brought in giant ships above the planet and shot it until every square inch of it was dust. They didn't stand a chance...

~

M: Oh please, don't flatter me. I have a generally small chest compared to most people.
*Shrugs and walks over to the tent to get changed*

*Reinhardt shrugs*
Reinhardt: The armor is snug even for my men. I figured you could use a little breathing room
*The armor is almost identical to that of the standard soldier, bar a few hidden pockets and a loop on the belt for Maiev's glaive*

*Maiev gets changed, and hangs up her armour set on a mannequin*
*Exits the tent and nods*
M: Ready.

*Jake shakes his head with disbelief.*

Jake: That is... horrible... a whole planet.

*He takes a long drag.*

Jake: The future.. seems rough.

*Reinhardt nods then accepts a large horn from a soldier and blows 3 quick blasts from it.
It's answered by 3 matching blasts from the treeline*
*Reinhardt nods then turns to Kara*
Reinhardt: Alright, that's the truce signal. They're willing to speak to you. Good luck
*Nods seriously as a transformed Staglord heaves on a rope to open the heavy wood gate and allow Maiev outside*

It is. But we fight through. As of now, the Covanant has glassed a total of 9 planets. Millions, no, billions of lives were lost...
*Shakes head and takes another drag*
Can we change the topic?

~

M: Thanks.
*Starts walking out to the treeline, calm as ever*

*A group of Dryads led by a more powerful Hammadryad wait in the woods for her. They nod as she approaches*
Hammadryad: Speak your piece Huma- You are no Humani... what are you?
*Eyes narrowed in distrust*
