<div align="center"><strong>~* Mae Little aka "MeiMei"- Frustrated and Annoyed, stuck in the Med Bay, trapped like a rat on a sinking ship :P – The Gamble *~</strong></div><br/><br/>The scowl grew on Mae's pretty face as both Si and Sasha came and went without a word, though with the expression on Sasha's face, Mae had been secretly pleased she hadn't stopped to chat. Though she would have been happier had Sasha not absconded with Vincent. If it hadn't been for Griff making eye contact, Mae would have bet good credits that she had been magically turned invisible. Turning to look over her shoulder, Mae felt her lips curl into a pleasant smile, erasing any sign of annoyance to offer him a cheerful hello.<br/><br/><strong>"Ah, I see that my pilot is awake, how is she doing, Dani?”</strong><br/><br/>Griff had entered to brighten her incarceration. At last, her luck just might be changing. However his posture communicated tension that radiated throughout his entire body, matching his words which were directed towards her jailer.  Her attention was pulled upon hearing her the formal address from the ships resident gentleman, however any warm feelings from the acknowledgement vanished when he implied of the danger Vincent could very well be in.<br/><br/><br/>"Miss Little, it's good to see you awake. Miss Marsdan. Captain. If you will excuse me? Miss Dearing asked that I sit in on Vincent's debriefing. I believe they are in her quarters by now, if you would like to hear more detail on the subject as well. I will try to keep her from breaking anything that he has not already broken, Doctor."<br/><br/><br/>Her hopes of reaching the end of the rainbow died and faded when Griff put forth his question in such a manner that screamed his agreement with whatever the good doctor had in mind, and her fears for Vincent grew in leaps and bounds with the warning words from Si. Adding Dani's reply to the mix just supplied the final nail in the young pilot's coffin, causing her mood sour further. Mae could feel the pain of her wings being clipped with every word, and on top of that, she was still stinging from her disastrous first date.<br/><br/><strong> "I've revoked flight status for both of them"</strong><br/><br/>The words echoed in her head and settled heavily on her heart causing a low sound to slip from her mouth akin to any wounded animal.  With sorrowful green eyes that darkened with her mood, Mae looked up to meet the concerned eyes that were reminiscent of melted chocolate.<br/><br/>"I'm shiny Capt’n …it was only a bump….I can still fly!”  Mae pleaded with the handsome captain, clearly emotional and desperate to cling onto the controls of her cockpit.  The evening had started out so well, holding so much promise for an even better time spent wrapped in her new lovers arms. Then the shit hit the fan and everything went to pot.  Fate had once again spit in her eye and sat back laughing while it watched her deal with the pieces. "Isn't it bad enough that my nethers have been ripe for the taking for weeks and then my new boyfriend gets hauled off before I can barely get a kiss!? Now I'm getting my wings clipped? How much more am I expected to take?”  Feeling herself grow more hysterical, Mae let all her frustrations fly, directing them towards her fellow crew and friends. “I want to be satisfied Griff! I need it! Heck, I can't even kiss my new boyfriend without causing the fun police to bring on the heavy! I'm thinking I might have to take my chances and dip into Hayes stash to get a buzz going….it's the only thing that will be buzzing on me now I guess! What the hell did you do to Sasha to make her so pissed?”<br/><br/>Throwing her hands up in the air, frustrated and annoyed, Mae forcefully blew the hairs that were in her face before crossing her hands against her chest and pouting her best in hopes to get something of a negotiation going, one that would hopefully be ending in her favour.<br/>
