(*makes his triumphant return to internet access*)<br/><br/>Meanwhile, as the two battle droids were becoming acquainted with each other, Alanna had made her way to the briefing, and was now sitting in on the discussion of the tactics from the combat engagement.  Overall, it was decided that scrambling more fighters to create a screen for the Independence was vital, and that limiting the deployment to small strike groups was just begging to cause trouble.  Lando had personally commended the Rebel pilots for changing tactics on the fly and not getting shaken up when met with stiffer-than-expected resistance, which made Alanna smile.  While she was angered that the battle plan had gotten some good pilots killed, she was satisfied that next time, those lessons would be used to save others, and that was an honorable death for anyone.<br/><br/>With the briefing completed, Alanna sent Beeper off to recharge and "rest" as best as he could.  She arranged for an oil bath and circuitry checks as well before moving to head back to the crew's quarters, desiring to catch a few hours of down time before it was her turn to fly as part of the Combat Air Patrol (CAP).  Walking down the corridor, she noticed that the light above Zeta's quarters was unlit, but the light near Khementari's was red, indicating the room was occupied.  Chewing her lower lip slightly, she debated with herself for a moment over whether she should disturb the fem-droid, or if she should wait until later for that.  Despite her inner debate, she found herself reaching out to press the button for the door chime, then stepped back, her hands clasped behind her as she waited to see if someone would respond.
