After some breif deliberations, Squad Obsidian decides to help Bishop Gildebauchs find his beloved Bullion. They've also deemed it prudent to procure supplies and recruit extra helpers for the task.
...Perhaps someone on this ship might have some useful items?
By the way, that was an invitation for a noteworthy Kithkin Artificer to get back into the action.
...If he wants to.
As it is prudent not to undergo missions on an empty stomach, the AYCEIBL has a convenient Take Out station where operatives on the go can grab specialized snack baskets without hauling Styrofoam trays through the buffet.
Squad Obsidian hears a familiar voice ring from the Take Out station:
Gertrude the Lunch Lady: "ALABASTER FANCY PACK, COME 'N GET IT!"
*hoists a light-colored basket loaded with goodies*
Somewhere deep within the ship a very short somewhat stout man works on a giant metal beacon with a little gremlin assistant next to him. For a split second he stares blankly at the wall and sneezes. "Aha! That must be my mention'o'matic!" As he hastily removes a metal pack with a small antennae from his hip. Picking it up and listening to it whirl for a moment before shaking it. "I was curious if this thing ever worked or not. Either that or it was just a normal sneeze. Whaddya think?" He looks over to the gremlin who stopped tightening down a screw to look at his boss, "Krehh?" "Precisely!" the machinist proclaims as he jumps off he stool he was sitting on. He rushes over to various crates with writing on them that reads as Usually Works, Work In Progress, TO BE DESTROYED, Probably Useless and pulls out various contraptions, boxes and bags from each box. He loads up his haul onto a wagon and heads out towards the bridge.
PM incoming tomorrow with a list of contraptions that Alv grabbed. I got work early tomorrow so I gotta hit the hay, but I wanted to post before I went to bed. Also I can't promise activity but I'll do my best.
Gertrude: "Well if it ain't Tree! Been quite a spell since I last seen you. After Thraben Prep was turned on its ear, I got myself a job slingin' grub here at GreyCorps. Real nice place, lotsa fancy ingredients and recipes ta try out. People are nice, too. Mosta them at least.
"Reckon you have some excitin' adventures 'round here."
coughs up some phlegm, which she delicately hides in a napkin that is thrown away
I'm glad you landed on your feet. That was quite the adventure at that school.

As Gertrude and the squad converse, more baskets accumulate behind the counter and more hungry field operatives come to claim them. Gertrude's fellow buffet attendants parcel out the meals.
Gertrude: "Who'da thought that a school dedicated to combatin' evil got hijacked by demons disguised like people? Comes ta show ya can't judge a book by its cover."
"Yeah, that was... definitely not a good place. I remember one of our most dangerous enemies there even posed as another friendly classmate first!"
After thinking about things for a bit, I think this might be Aurora's last mission for a while. As far as things go in this thread, Aurora isn't a very interesting person to play as (simply placing protective wards everywhere gets boring after a while), so this is probably not the ideal spotlight for Aurora to play in.
If I come up with a new character to use, I'll let you know, but for now I should probably take a break from this sort of RP.
Ivory-Clad Combat Butler: "Well, the front door of HQ is on the corner of Karlov Crossing and Obligation Way. Same place as the Jeevescake Factory since those two doors are one in the same. Kinda.
"I've already been here a year and I still can't wrap my mind around how everything works."
Ivory-Clad Combat Butler: "Yeah, that's the same one my squad's tracking!
"Not sure how you guys got the same contract, but I guess we could team up if you want. My squad was halfway to the Gildebauchs estate when they dispatched me to pick up the grub. On foot. Guess the new guy gets stuck with the grunt work, eh?
"So what do you say?"
A. Let Ivory-Clad Combat Butler join your party and rendezvous with the other squad at the Gildebauchs estate.
B. Agree to work together, but start your investigation at the bazaar to cover more ground.
C. Decline the team up and go into competiton with the other squad (more gold for you guys).
...Perhaps someone on this ship might have some useful items?
...Someone with...a background in engineering?
