Alister never really cared about the sounds that the audience made, so he ended up just keeping quiet and waiting until Zero was salvaged and brought back into the bay before he dismounted. He considered going but to talk to Jess, but there was really no point. She'd just try to mother her way into his personal life again and tell him how he should live his life. Still, it was hard for him to keep from going, he always had enjoyed her company more then he let on. He ended up staying in the bay and started to oversee how long it would take to repair Zero, because this had been a premier event, all repair fees had been paid by the federation. Even Alister had to admit that it was a pretty good deal.<br/><br/>Mira, meanwhile, wasn't expecting any comm chatter at all, since the only person that could possibly have interest in talking to her likely wouldn't say a thing. Still, when she got the message from her opponent, telling her not to let 'them' blame her for the loss, she couldn't help but feel her heart sink a little bit more as she made her response. "Thank you. Congratulations on the victory, too." She hoped that her words didn't come off as too bitter, but she wasn't feeling in the best of spirits at the moment. Fortunately for the conversation with Alex though, Mira really didn't have a bitter bone in her body, so her tone just came off as disheartened<br/><br/><br/>.............<br/><br/>For the first few seconds, all that Jillian could do was just blink in disbelief. Was she really hearing this? However, after she recovered from the initial shock of the moment, she just let out a tiny laugh and stepped forward. "Anna, you seriously just took the words right out of my mouth... you have no reason to feel ashamed about what happened the other night, really, I was the one that went too far and screwed everything up." She couldn't believe that, not only was Anastasia the one to come over and patch the bridge, but that she also thought that she was the guilty party.
