An annoyed grumble came her mouth at the news of the loss of their starboard engine and the utter destruction of her martini mixer. At least the rest of the ship wasn't that bad. The captain was still very annoyed at the onboard computer though. "Go crazy on the computer if you want, Malcolm. I hate him too...." She said, giving him full clearance to do that. Mariko started to calm down as she felt the mountain air, returning to her meek personality at the sight of the coming landscape. "I will b-be starting an exploration party." Mariko said, leaping to the ground.<br/><br/>Acrobatics Check<br/>At 2013-08-30 19:46:18, Yugishogun (uid: 42100) rolls: 1d20 Result: 11 (http://elliquiy.com/forums/dicebot.php?r=49564)<br/><br/>(11+13) total=24<br/></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>The slope down to the river is full of trees and rocks and large rocks for no good reason. The mountain hike being quite relaxing after the crash landing, as soon enough you lose sight of the ship, and a half mile down you reach the mountain river. It isn't too deep or fast moving, but there is plenty of large boulders all over the shore line and in the bed, making boat travel quite impossible. You might be able to manage with a small craft, but it would be bumpy. Tasting the water shows that it is very clear, fresh, and ice cold mountain water.<br/><br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote"><a href="https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=183700.msg8826343#msg8826343">Quote from: Ghostwheel on 31-08-2013, 13:48:22</a></div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote">As soon as the door slides open, Malcolm's eyes widen in horror and fury. A fist lashes out hitting the metal at the side of the doorframe, and a trickle of blood runs down his wrist. "FRAAAAAAAAAAAAAK!" the scream echoes and reverberates throughout the entire ship as his anger lends itself to his voice. "M-my beautiful engine," he stutters in consternation, his breath coming short and ragged, in hurried pants before beginning to slow down.<br/><br/><div class="floatright">(http://i44.tinypic.com/2vlwlc1.jpg)</div>"Exploration? Party? Of one person, all by yourself?" Malcolm asks dubiously, studying the petite girl before him and admiring her backside as she jumped down the short drop to the ground. Heck, the ship was broken, and she was wandering off by herself... what was to stop him from tying her up in a tree somewhere and making sure to tend to any "wounds" she might have taken during the crash? A cruel grin split his face in two, teeth showing to her back, though before she might look back his face had returned to its usual, disdainful sneer. "Enjoy yourself. Bring back the engine if you find it. Bring back anything native that looks like it might taste good," he says absentmindedly, wiping the blood from his hand before turning back to the wrecked section and beginning to organize the various equipment still intact, wondering how he'd repair the hull itself, much less get an engine back in place.<br/><br/>After all, while he was a cruel man, he wasn't without any sort of morals or humanity. Still, sometimes a man could get... urges. And sometimes those urges had to be fulfilled. Especially after weeks, or even months on a ship with no suitable partners around...<br/></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>The cargo hold has plenty of spare parts and other equipment, but nothing in the realm of a spare engine. You could start patching the hole in the hull if you really wanted, but that would take a considerable amount of time without a proper space dock and their cranes and other full scale equipment.<br/><br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote"><a href="https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=183700.msg8827410#msg8827410">Quote from: Saric on 31-08-2013, 20:37:59</a></div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote">Kord just gave Fedrick a look. "I'm not sure if that would be a reward or a punishment... ether way we've got work to do."<br/><br/>Making his way to the cockpit Kord gave his console a dubious look before giving it a firm kick. "Eddie? Did the black box pick up anything of where we were when we left hyperspace, or exactly when the starboard engine decided on a solo career? Also is there any chance of getting the ship airborne without the starboard engine? Enough to move to another landing site if not leaving the planet?"<br/><br/>While he talk he started checking over the systems in the cockpit, seeing what still worked and what was toast.

Oh dear, so many questions! Hyperspace logs are scrambled due to the hyperspace shunt that my ship fell into when the engine started malfunctioning guy! We could be ANYWHERE! Luckily everyone, Eddie here managed to scan the region the ship landed in while composing original big band music. Isn't that swell?"</strong>At which point Eddie puts big band music on the speakers all over the ship again, along with showing Kord a holomap of the region, which looks suspiciously like the Lake Tahoe region, with mountains and the river and the large ass mountain lake nestled in a valley.
