Sha'Koro thought for a few thousand clock-cycles 10.000 was... how the humans called it 'a drop on a hot stone'... but it was at least a beginning. So after not even one second he nodded "Okay."

It is, though part of Sha'Koro's backstory is that since the Ultimo is so old restoring her costs an astronomical amount since the parts all would have to be specially made, like, he could get a new ship for 1/100th of the price he needs to pay here and its specifically so that he'll take decades to finish... that's not to say he can't do it before that for some reason, but to his knowledge at least it'll take decades

So, do you have any combat or stealth skills? Because the traitor's mission was to take out a space pirate captain, and we'll likely have to get through his crew to get to him

Sha'Koro tilted his ead before shortly transforming his arms into their Mantis shape and presenting his shields "Yes, but I'm mostly an Archeologist... but I am combat capable."

"One may feel fear in the face of danger so long as one banishes fear when danger actually arrives"

Excellent. So, are you in?

Sha'Koro tilted his head again "I already told that I am." He said... not out of annoyance or anthing but more out of confusion that he was asked again.

Then we leave in 24 hours. I already have a plan.

"Okay, can I hear that plan or do you want to keep it for yourself for now?" Again that may sounded like a dumb question but Sha'Koro meant that completely honest.

"One may feel fear in the face of danger so long as one banishes fear when danger actually arrives"

It's a bit long. Basically we start by waiting near his ship's usual trading route, with our ship's propulsion system off. He's a notorious scavenger, so he can't resist the advanced weapon systems of the Sidewinder just floating in space, ready to be grabbed. Once we're in, we can either sneak our way to the captain, or we can get there guns blazing. The end objective is the same, and that's to kill the captain.

Sha'Koro nodded, he was happy that the plan did not require him to use his own ship... not that he could currently anyway... and even if, the Ultimo was by now nothing you'd call 'modern' without meaning it sarcastic. "Okay I can do that... but do we have to injure the crew?"

Well, they're all raiders and slavers, who regularly torture and murder in cold blood, but no, we don't have to. Just the rogue bounty hunter and the captain.

"Those guys do not really sound nice." He thought for a bit, for a while one could one hear the gentle sirr of his coolant units as he weighed the possibilities. "I'll try my best."

Zevai walks over to the West and Sha'Koro. "What's this I hear about wiping out a crew of people that civilized space would be better without?"

I've got an assignment to kill a space pirate captain, as well as a bounty hunter that was hired to kill him. This particular hunter ended up joining the pirate crew for cash. This gentleman,

-He said, pointing to Sha'koro-

Is coming along.

"Sounds like fun. Any intel? Or are we walking in blind."

I've got enough to get us inside, but after that, we're blind. Are you interested?

Zevai smiled bemusedly. "Boarding a ship with no intel, no backup, and fighting our way to the bridge to kill the captain and his new best bud, all the while hoping they don't turn the key and blow up the ship? Sounds like fun. When do we leave?"

Bridge, past

Tomorrow, 09:00 hours, galactic standard time.

I'd like to note that there isn't really any 'galactic standard time' here, but I'll let that slide.

Troperia Training Room -> Observation Room:

After spending about 6 minutes cooling off with relative success, Torvahk reattached his unarmored outfit's sleeves and leggings and put his armored spacesuit back on as he decided that he had enough exercise for a little while. He then decided to head into the Observation Room, and figured the best way to follow up with strengthening one's body was to also exercise their mind as he tried to position himself in the center-most area of the room and made himself kneel facing the ground using one talon-hand for support before closing his eyes, inhaling deeply, and exhaling as he gradually separated himself from the world and entered a realm that wasn't seen by the eye, but rather perceived by the mind.

Living The Fever Dream

Had Sha'Koro a functioning gullet he'd be gulping right now hearing that talk, he made a special memo in his database to try and pervent useless loss of lives if possible.

Kijo continues to eat with slow, deliberate motions. He seems to be in thought. Meanwhile, Ricardo still stares off, though his motions are near the same as Kijo in terms of how he eats.

Alexander - Science Division

When Dominic sits the monitor will light up, and the flicker of a scanner will shine on him momentarily. It is likely unsure how much information such a scan will bring up, but it seems...well, relatively benign. After a moment, the screen blinks and a young man, maybe twelve (and made up in much the same way Michiyuki is when she displays her avatar) appears.

...hello.

Sha'Koro also prepared, he had made a self diagnosis before and now optimized his acutators according to the results. As he was finshed he walked to the Ultimo laying his hand on the antique ship "You will fly again..." After that he walked to West.

"Yes... I hope you don't mind that Aicha will also be coming with us?" The tiny Light-construct waved from his shoulder.
