Talk About Timing...

[cityship]

While chaos was going on in the city, a level below the Living Areas, the rest of the ship was functioning normally. Stacy, apparently oblivious to goings on in the city, likely do to her malfunctioning sensors there, carried on with ship business.

||Pod Release Protocols Initating,|| Stacy's familiar voice sounded out to the upper levels, though no one was there to hear her. They were all downstairs, fighting for their lives against giant cockroaches.

In the Pod Caverns, there were the sounds of: Pop. Pop pop pop. Poppuhpoppoppop. KASCHUNKhiiiiiiiissssss.

The usual condensation and mist sprayed out from cracks in the pods, they ripped open and the people inside slid out onto the floors, covered in slime. One of them, due to his mechanical nature, slid out covered in a sort of oil mixture, in a smaller body than he'd once had.

Pop. Poppop. KASCHUNKhiiiiiissss.

There was no one already freed from the ship to greet them, only Stacy herself, and the empty silence of a ship caught in the middle of a crisis.

"Oh no. You would...oh...now that would be tragic!" she snapped. "I'd be so very heartbroken." And then noting his expression, slowly, she said, "I don't like that look..."

"There's an unusual signal that might mean--"

He tweaks the sensors on his omnicom a bit, and then the expression changes to a very, VERY happy one. At least happy for him.

"I'm registering an active Legion flight ring several levels above us," he says, looking up from his omnicom with wide eyes.

"Oh yay. There's more of you. I can hardly wait." She folds her arms. "Are they all as prissy as you are, or are some of them actually normal?"

"They're all quite annoying. I'm sure you'll get along."

Please let it be Lyle, please let it be Lyle...

Er, not because he misses him. It's just he could use his brain.

He starts flying towards the transport tube.

Kara follows him, her cape flapping behind her. "Hold it, spanky. You're not leaving me alone here." She floats up to him. "And when I said annoying, I meant like you. I'm not annoying. All things considered I'd say I'm pretty...spiffy. Yes. Spiffy. I'm spiffy."
