Silvia looked back at the woman she was purchasing the ticket for and sighed, Well, I guess he WAS seeing my my best friend. Make that one... The doctor pocketed her IDent card and bit her lower lip, Men, huh? she causally asks to the vendor. |

"Sure, that'd work fine." Colin said, transferring nearly all of his ill-gotten funds. "How much longer do you think it'd take?" Not that it'd matter much, everyone else probably still thinks he's building sets for some big-wig core-planet theatre company...which, speaking of: "Oh, and is there a cortex panel here where I can send a message?" |

Lupin had for the most part grumbled along counting the numerous ways his day had been royally screwed up since he decided to do his grifting at the hospital. Yet somehow it could be worse. He wasn’t sure how, but knew it was most certainly possible. He forced himself to focus on the task on hand, Now’s not the time for that, he thought to himself as they neared the ticket window. Have to think, have to plan, 10 steps ahead. No time for self-loathing or bad luck. The kiosk neared closer and closer and it hit him like a ton of bricks, ID card, he need a clean background. He had nearly forgotten how the ID he been running round with at the hospital had to have a list long as his arm of potential police reports and personal vendettas. Even then there was no way it could stand up to the slightest background check. Looking around he had to find a somewhere private to dig out an id card from his bag. In too much a rush to care if heard, he said to the doc, “I have to use the bathroom.” He walked across the busy room and found an empty stall of questionable cleanliness. He set his things down on a hook and began his search. Ignoring the foul stench he dug through his bag’s contents to find a ‘clean’ identity and made a small withdrawal from his stash of cash he had on hand. Zipping up the bag he nearly gagged as the odor began to overwhelm him, taking it as his cue he rushed out the rest room. As Lupin found his way back to the ticket kiosk he looked over the card admiring his own handy work and grinned when he read the name, “Well she’ll be disappointed when it doesn’t read Thompson but I guess Mr. Michael Blonde will do.” With the equivalent of a week’s pay in hand and a name that no one can argue so he was on his way. After a little searching he caught up with the doc just in time to overhear her talking with the vendor. “Hey, I resemble that remark.” He joked as he put his arm around Silvia. “Sorry about the wait.” Looking up the lady in the booth he apologized, “You needed this right?” He offered up his IDent card and smiled at the doc. |

Upon feeling the arm around her shoulder and hearing the familiar voice she let out a laugh and shook her head, Oh there you are sweetie. I thought you ran off with my brother. she joked to her travelling companion in front of the teller, giving the clerk a smile, Well I guess we need two after all. she handed over the credits for two tickets, Ready to go to Baroness? she casually asks Lupin while waiting for their tickets to be handed to them, at least he doesn't have to worry about paying for the ride. |

The woman at the ticket counter smiled at Colin. "I'm sorry. It seem's all flights have been cancelled at this time. We can shuttle you to the Baroness where you can find a ship there. Lots of pilots are always waiting to take on passengers to various parts of the verse." Silvia and Lupin handed over their tickets to the attended and proceeded to the waiting shuttle. |

The doctor stows her bags once she's found her seat on the shuttle, keeping her "personal" medical kit under the chair ahead of her. She was on a shuttle now, but she wasn't going let her guard down after what happened on the train, leaning over she whispered to Lupin, Keep your eyes open. |

Lupin kept his train of thought going doing his best to stay alert. He kept an eye out for any steel strapped to hips or any brass badges as he made his way through the aisles and eventually took a seat. Not many are aware of this but being a grifter takes more than just a silver tongue and fast hands. It requires a keen eye and a sharp mind; if you can’t read your mark then you’re basically going in blind and that means you’ll probably end up trying to sell cheap bibles to an atheist. He whispered back to the doc, “Already ahead of you.” |

As the group of passengers made their way onto the shuttle, a calm voice repeated overhead. "Final boarding call for ICS Flight B229 to the Baroness." The ship itself was a modern design, with slightly curved rows of aisles. A stewardess passes by, offering the couple a plastered on smile before continuing on toward the exit. A quick look around the other travellers could have found anything. A young Asian family sat toward the front of the ship, speaking quietly between themselves, behind them a trio of men in suits who spoke almost nonsensically. The row behind was empty, save for a rather creepy looking older man with glasses. Then toward the back of the ship, Lupin spotted a man in a old duster, keeping a watchful eye on the boarding passengers. |

The doctor slipped down into her seat, looking around and taking stock in the layout of the shuttle but taking a moment for herself to relax after one last look around. She leans back in her chair and taking in a deep breath, I need a drink. |

"Sure." Colin handed over what he needed, grabbed his ticket, and bolted for the gate. If he wasn't going where he wanted to, at least he was going now. Tripping over what was either someone's leg or a small child within the crowd, he apologized as almost a gut reaction and slipped into the ship. Taking a seat, he let out a long sigh. Progress, at the very least. He hears someone close by voicing their need to imbibe. "I hear ya", he announced, another vocal reaction that seemed out of his hands. |

The was a small murmer of laughter as Colin took his seat. A smiling hostess seemed to appear from nowhere and headed toward Silvia. "What can I get you m'am?" A faint voice could be overhead from outside. "That's it, lock 'er up!" |

The doctor smiled and looked up at the stewardess, May I have some water please? She looked over at Lupin, Do you need anything dear? she figured she'd ask and kill two birds with one shot here since the stewardess is here. |

Lupin picked up a pamphlet on the ship with details on its exits and steps to take in event of a crash. Not that it seemed to matter on most ships of this size but it did make a good cover as he scooped out the people in the rows in front of him. He put away the booklet as the stewardess approached and smiled at her. “A water would be nice, thank you.” He lifted up his index finger as if to say one moment please, “On second thought, if you’re serving alcohol I’d prefer a whiskey on ice please.” His other hand pulled out a fairly large tip and offered it for her trouble. |

The stewardess nodded silently to the pair, then smiled wildly "But of course." and with that she was gone. In her abensce came a raised voice from the front of the craft. "I don't care what the 'regulations' say! I'm finishing this cigar and that's the end of it!" The voice bellowed. Male, later 40's, rather full of himself by the sounds of it. Those listening would just have been able to catch the beginning of 'Don't you know who I am…." when a much calmer voice echoed from the overhead speakers. "Ladies and gentlemen, my name is Cpt. Wong. The flight time to the Baroness is a little over 3 hours. Be advised Verbena is under Alliance lockdown, so have your IDent cards ready at all times. Please remember, this is a no smoking flight, however we have located airlocks at the rear of the vessel should the need be truly life or death…" |

The doctor peeked up over the row of seats ahead of her to try to see who this boisterous man was. A slight giggle escaped her mouth when she heard the captain's announcement. The doctor sat back down once her curiosity was sated, adjusting her belongs in order to make sure she could get to her medical kit in a pinch. |

There was another bump as the shuttle left the ground and began its journey into the Black. The world below began to shrink, eventually disappearing underneath the clouds. The ship then began to shake slightly as they began to exit the atmosphere. A young woman nearby began to draw breaths, faster and faster, fingers digging into the arm rests and she repeated a whispered mantra to herself. |

Colin, on the other hand, breathed a sigh of relief as the shuttle left dirt. It's pretty unlikely they'd point that petty robbery at him by this point, and he was at least en route somewhere. Though as he began to take in his immediate surroundings, he caught sight of the doctor from the train. He instinctively sat back down and sharply took in air...and quite a bit of smoke. Colin's cough was a loud, throaty hack. Theatre smoke? No problem, but the real stuff wasn't so smooth. |

Now that they were in the air, the stewardess re-appeared with a tray of drinks and made her way down the aisle, stopping her and there to drop them off. Moments later she was at Silvia's side, hand dropping down with a plastic container filled with a clear liquid. She smiled silently at the woman, then took a few steps toward Lupin. Searching around her tray, she located the whiskey and handed it to the man with a smile. Finally, she headed towards the back of the vessel and approached Colin with a small glass of water. "Everything alright sir?" |

The doctor took her water in her hand and then brought it up, taking a sniff of it to make sure it had no odour before slipping a hand into her jacket and pulling out a small strip and testing the water discretely. Satisfied that the water was clean she take a drink, lifting herself up to look at the man hacking up his lung figuratively and then sat back down, whispering to Lupin, That guy's here. she casually motioned towards Colin. |

Lupin didn’t allow his curiosity to get the better of him, he knew that if he allowed himself to start paying attention to anyone that loud and overly entitled that he’d be busy trying to cheat the man. And honestly, he had more important things to do. Closing his eyes he waited for the takeoff to pass, it seems that no matter how many times he takes off or lands planet side the jostle shakes his nerves. He could hear the woman’s mantra and did a silent prayer of his own, “You better take care of me Lord, if you don't you're gonna have me on your hands.” Fortunately, things calmed down quick enough and the waitress came back with the drinks. He smiled and thanked her once more as he took his drink and began to sip on it. Lupin couldn’t help but notice the doc testing the water, he was about to ask why she was doing that when she pointed out the ‘would be pickpocket’ from the train. “Aw Jeez, you serious? They’ll let anyone work security these days won’t they?” He sat up a bit higher to try and get a look at him and sure enough it was him. |
