*commissar brought his leg back again and send his foot out to kick him again, not even hesitating for a moment.*

*Cbc would be able to pick up 'stay. Down' from his cadian dialect*

*Aoife narrows her eyes and stands ready to intervene should the fight go too far*


*Gharn smiles loopily*
Gharn: Glad t'see you vizzit... s'not mush t'do but zleep...

[CBC grits his teeth and rocks with the hit, but makes it upright] There's only one person I kneel for, and he ain't you. [Comes up swinging] [Aims for CN's stomach]

*commissar swiftly brought his arm down and caught Cbcs swing, countering with a close fisted backhand*

*cadian*

*Smiles, pats Gharn's head, then nods at Cal*
We'll be right out.
*Smiles again*

~

*Denny nods at Scatty*
D: She was bald, remember? Chemo being a shortened version of chemotherapy, which she looked like she was on. Y'know, forget it. It sucks when the joke has to be explained.
*Shrugs, and finishes her beer*
*Looks questionably at Jake*

~

*Blue chirps a few more times, then finishes eating and hugs Leo*

*Cal nods*
Cal: Alright, I'll give you some privacy, just don't wind him up too much
*He walks out*


*Gharn smiles at the head pat, the half of his face not covered in bandages seeming significantly less bruised than the day before*
Gharn: Hey Izzy... how you doin?

*Scatty smiles weakly*
Scatty: It does, doesn't it? She had her consciousness transferred to a clone, the clone body didn't have any hair when she was transferred, hence the baldness.
*Looks over at Blue hugging Leo then down at her plate*

[CBC looks briefly surprised] [Winces at the backhand]
[Rolls his neck and attempts to punch Nick in the side with his bionic] Y'think for one minute I'm gonna just take this...

*Leo hugs Blue back*

Leo: Sssomething up Blue? Or you jussst being floofy?

*Remus rubs up against Dria*

*Commissar doesn't even flinch and tanks the hit. He looks down at Cbc and blows air out his nose. Commissar lunges his arms out to grab Cbc by the head and knee him just below the rib cage to cause maximum pain*

...

*Aoife watches carefully*


*Scatty looks over at Blue and smiles then tries to move over and stroke her*
Scatty: Hey there Blue. How're you doing?


*Dria nearly gets bowled over by nuzzles and giggles*
Dria: Stoppit! I'm trying to help!
*Manages of open the doors*

[CBC realises something is fethed up] [Attempts to twist out of Nick's grip, but still gets kicked and severely winded] Ch-! [Clutches abdomen with one arm] [Slam other into Nick's own gut in an attempt to get free]

*Denny notices Scatty's unease at Leo and Blue, then shrugs*
D: Yeah, I know. She told me.

~

*Blue eyes make it obvious that she's smiling*
Blue: Flooooo-feee Hoon-ter!
*Turns back to Scatty, and pecks the hand that was trying to pat her*
*Angry chirp*

*Rita frowns at Cal, then keeps pating Gharn on the head.*
*Smiles and looks happy overall.*
*Eyes still glow pink.*

---
*Jake turns back to Denny, and waves away her concern.*
Jake: Just figuring out where Roland is.. nothing to worry about.
*Smiles at her, and the takes a swig from his beer.*

*Scatty nods*
Scatty: She did? Well... I didn't expect that of her..

*Scatty blinks*
Scatty: She spo- Ow! Hey!
*Rubs her hand*
Scatty: What was that for? I'm just trying to be nice!


*Gharn looks up at Rita and weakly points to her eyes*
Gharn: Rita... pink eyes?

*commissar is shoved and regains his composure, cracking his neck by tilting it side to side. His face showed no emotion. He simply stepped forward and aimed to kick out Cbcs knee from under him by going directly for the knee cap*

Listen to your superiors, worm. The academy has no tolerance for fools.

*commissar said another statement in Cadian and continued to bear down on Cbc*

*Remus stops nuzzling Dria and runs out of the room*

*Runs in a circle and waits for Dria tail wagging*

*Leo smiles at Blue but is shocked by her hostility towards Scatty*

Leo: Blue! Don't peck her. Ssshe'sss a friend.

[CBC yelps in pain and attempts to stay upright] [Grips the front of Nicks collar instead of punching him] What the hell are you talking about?! Nick? Where do you think we are?

*commissar brings both his hands up to grab Cbc by the front of his shirt and then slam him -hard- into the ground. He then swiftly drew his knife and slammed it inches from Cbcs head.*

...

*commissar then calmly walked back to his seat and picked up an imperial infantrymans uplifting primer to read*

*Aoife uncrosses her arms and rests one hand on the pommel of her longsword before going to CBC and trying to help him*


*Scatty examines her hand then shakes it*
Scatty: It's okay Blue, I'm not going to hurt you, or Leo. I'd never hurt Leo...
*Tries to smile in a friendly manner*


*Dria grins and runs after Remus. She smiles and carefully goes to climb in his back*
Dria: Okay Remus! Go!

*Blue chirps again, a little louder at Scatty, then backs up against Leo*

~

*Denny nods at Jake*
D: Kay, you just seemed distant.
*Drinks more, then lights up a cigarette, and tries ignoring Leo/Scatty/Blue*

~

*Izy just smiles and waits for Rita to finish fussing Gharn to go speak to Cal*

[CBC hits the floor with a loud crack, and lies very still] [Struggles to breathe] [Eyes go wide at the knife] ...

*commissar kept reading his primer. Taking a sip of coffee*

*Scatty tries speaking very softly, trying to coax Blue into letting her come near Leo*
Scatty: It's okay Blue, I won't hurt you, it's okay.


*Aoife gently rolls CBC over*
Aoife: Thought you were tougher than that, or maybe the other one's just that mean... Let's get you patched up.
*Looks around for Sam before helping CBC up and allowing him to lean heavily on her and hobble towards the medbay*

*Rita nods to Gharn.*
Rita: Drinking! Causes my eyes to glow pink!
*She pats him one more time.*
Rita: You rest. We check on you later, okay? Take care buddy.
*Gets up, and follows Izriel out.*

---
*Jake nods.*
Jake: Yeah everything is great. Just a tad worried about Roland..
*He watches Leo, Scatty, and Blue, and smiles.*

*Smiles at Rite, then nods to Cal, once outside*
What's up?

~

*Denny nods*
D: Oh. Go talk to him if you like. I'll be right here.

~

*Hostile Blue is hostile*
*Chirps loudly, then tries pecking Scatty again*

[CBC stays on the floor and curls onto his side] Gimme a minute... [Looks sightly grey] [Shaking involuntarily]
I st- There's something wrong with him. He thought he was at an academy?
[After a few minutes, his augments reengage, and he looks a more human colour]

*Remus looks at Dria on her back the up at the sky*

*He bends down then springs into the air and starts hovering*

*Leo watches Scatty and Blue*

*She hopes they can be friends*

*commissar gently places down his book and heads into the kitchen, humming a tune and refilling his coffee*

Hm hm hm hm hm hmmmm hmm!

*Gharn nods*
Gharn: Visit later please?
*Smiles then slowly drifts off to sleep*


*Scatty darts back, avoiding the peck*
Scatty: Hmm... Leo why don't you try interacting with me? To show that you like me and I'm a... friend...


*Cal looks over at them, seeming serious*
Cal: I need to talk to you about Gharn, and the repercussions of this event.... He's taken a severe beating as you know, but the damage is more severe than it seems. The damage he took to his shoulder included some nerve damage to his right arm, and we're not sure what damage was done to his mind with the blows he took. For now, he's seriously concussed, but the damage may be permanent. Only time will tell


*Dria laughs and holds on tight*


*Aoife shakes her head*
Aoife: I don't know anything about that
