Timeline: October 19th 4566; Early Evening

Remi and the team she went out with along with Jayce headed back to the Crimson Shield. Once they were back a ship arrived and started to tow the other one back to the Cityship. Remi took Jayce with her back to the large room she was staying in and told Sheplin to set a course back home. She then asked not ot be disturbed. She sat Jayce down at the desk in the room and pulled up the other chair sitting next to him. "Did you need me to get you anything to eat or drink; want to talk or?" She asked.

Jayce shakily sat in the chair, breathing in a broken, almost scared way. "I... It would be nice..." he says, a sigh starting but catching in his throat. "...I... I can't believe you're real... Watson said I have some... kind of trauma caused by being alone...
"I'm not... myself. I... I probably won't be for awhile."

Remi got him some hot chooclate and herself some mint tea. She then put her hand on his shoulder. "It's okay.... Your safe; if you need when we get back to the city I can ask one of our doctors to take a look at you?" She asked him trying to reassure him and help him calm down; she knew he might need some medications and someone to talk to who knew more about this sort of thing but she could help as much as she was able.

He shakily reaches for the cocoa and sips it, taking a deep breath and closing his eyes, for a fleeting moment he begins to calm down.... "A doctor could help... might give me something that can relax my mind. I-I keep ... thinking... of them. Everyone, even the captain... I watched them all die, but I didn't even get sick... I just got the job on that ship, my first in the field I've wanted, it went great for a short while... but..." he trails off, visibly rambling and upset thinking about it.

"Try not to think about it... Think about now; what you want to do here... In fact; let me try something..." She pulls a small gem out form under her tank; it was around her neck. She closes her eyes and concentrates. A blue water-like energy comes out of the gem and begins to soothe him letting him feel calmer and seeming to ; at least temporarily wipe all this worries away.


He begins to relax, laying back in the chair, breathing out a big sigh, her seeing his shoulders visibly lay back. ... "Do you have some kind of cafeteria on this ship...?
"I haven't ate much since friday..."

"I don't know." She said as she had to stop healing him; she seemed to have tired herself again. "Computer; does this ship have a lounge?" "Affirmative. Please follow the directional indicator in your VX." The ships computer said as it sent her navigational data for the location of the lounge.  She took his hand ignoring her fatigue but also grabbing her tea and letting him take his chocolate while the two made their way to the small lounge. it was automated.
As it would have taken awhile for the ship to get back to the city the tug also tractors their ship as well and pulls both ships with it through a slipstream window. They would arrive in less than an hour now.

He sits across from her, blushing as he catches himself looking down her tank, forcing his eyes back to hers, after a moment of silence he awkwardly speaks "S-So... I-I guess i'm unemployed now.
Would that count as unemployment...? the ship you were hired on..." he trails off again, shaking his head. ... "Either way I should get some sort of settlement... pain and suffering, or something...? I'm just now thinking of this the first time."

"We can handle all that... for now... focus on what you want... what you need. We will handle even getting you work; I'm pretty sure we can find something for you to do here. It seems that I have a new fleet and I need an assistant... We can discuss that later though. She notices him eyeing her chest. She giggles. "if you have something to say; say it... I don't mind... I'm use to being peoples item of lust.... I don't look it but I am actually a soldier and the Princess of an Empire that was annexed by the Federation. What did you want to eat... We also could have just used the replicator in my room to make things; unless you did this to meet otehr people?" She asked.

"I'm sorry... I'm all over the place right now. And I don't quite know what's going through my head. I think what caught my eye at your chest Umm... Was uh.." he blushes hotly, stuttering. "W-wait, p-princess? Oh God... I-im sorry ma'am... Uh... Before we eat... I guess you had some kind of heart surgery?" He partly tries to cover up his more lustfully curious side with an honest concern.

Remi shrugged. "It's okay; you don't need to apologize... I am grateful you are being honest and I get it... You just went through some horrible shit. It is fine if your attracted to me... I did mention my surgery didn't I...  I don't like my dad so; you are fine... I got shot by  a sniper... I nearly died... the doctors said I shouldn't work until I am healed... I am polyamorous by the way..." She said; she didn't have a scar but the way her body reacted; someone could tell even if she didn't say she had  a surgery.

"I just want to... Be normal again. Being locked up so long... But seeing everyone here is... Honest making me more nervous...
He shivers from nervousness, clearly suffering a bad case of cabin fever.


"I'm sorry... Want to go back to my room?" Remi asked.

"nobody is in here so it's fine... But earlier... That... Got me. Being in a room full of people again... " His stomach audibly growls, it breaking the serious Moment with a comedic interruption.

She gets him food and then just sits across from him just waiting.

He laughs "I suppose I should get something myself.* He says, grabbing a decent meal for the first time in six months, him downing two glasses of water, then getting a glass of cola on his way back. Upon return he sits with her. "What's this ship's mission anyways?"

"This ship; doesn't have one. If you mean the fleet as a whole... to Support Trinity; and Trinity's mission... save the galaxy." Remi replied simply just waiting for him to finish eating and dod his thing as she waits nursing her tea.
