"I... I don't know what I expected, honestly, but it sure as hell wasn't a boy scouts camp."
The man chuckles, looking over the 'boy scouts camp' with some mild curiosity.
"Looks... okay, I guess. Perimeter being patrolled, as far as I can see.. And with all of these folks, we're.. Damn. I wouldn't be surprised if every Imperial on this ship is here, honestly."

Kolandra gulped. One space marine on board a ship she had no way off was almost too much already, but an entire camp of xenophobic imperial humans? "... Oh dear"
-
"I could keep you safe, probably. Somehow. Doubt anyone would assault an accomplice of a Black Templar. But then again, you are still a Xeno. My favourite Xeno but still a Xeno..." The Space Marine turned his head to look at the woman next to him, and spoke softly, "I'll do my best to keep you safe."

"Oh wow, I'm [i]soo[/i] flattered" Even though her remark came with a tone of sarcasm, inside, Kolandra was greatful that there was at least one person nearby who she might be able to count on. She also felt a hint of flattery at being called a 'favourite xeno', even if the word xeno was typically used in an insulting context by humans.
-
The Marine looked away, and at the ground, muttering the word 'ouch' to himself. He felt a jab at his poor feelings, too. Basically, his feelings were hurt because he's a whiny little bitch.
-
The warlock could sense the feelings of pity and rejection within. "... Wow, really? What kind of organs do they give you guys, extra ovaries?... ok, my apologies. You're actually a lot better than I was expecting."

-
The templar's arm had been intriguing to Kolandra for some time now, her curiosity about it scratching at her. "... what happened to your arm, if I may ask?"
-
The man clenches his prosthetic hand into a fist, but swiftly let go. He wiggles his fingers a little, thinking of answer. "Ripped off by a Tyranid..."
-
Edited by Moot: 6/20/2016 9:38:31 PM"ouch... I'm, sorry to hear that... shame that I don't hail from Alaitoc. If I did, then maybe I'd be able to relate to something like that. I've never encountered the Tyranids before; they're perhaps one of the only threats out there that truly scare me... it's the idea that they're potentially infinite in number haunts me. We have no clue as to wether this galaxy is just the latest in thousands of other galaxies they've rampaged across..."
-
"You're lucky that you haven't run into one yet. Bastards are.. Shall we just say... Unpleasant. Very unpleasant. Worst thing is that they're a hivemind so when one sees you, they all know you're there. And it allows for highly strategic group attacks."
-
"yeah, I've heard... Eldrad and the other Farseers of Ulthwé's seer counsil once tried to destroy the Hivemind by psychic means, channelling their combined detective thoughts towards it. Barely even started before one of the seers already went insane and they had to pull out of any further attempts... what could possibly possess such a strong unbreakable mind?"

Edited by CPU Purple-Heart: 6/20/2016 9:57:34 PM"Something that I do not want to run into in a dark alley. Or anywhere, really. I'd rather stay alive for as long as the Emperor needs me." The man chuckles, though his words were true. I mean, who's want to face something like that? I sure as hell wouldn't.
-
Kolandra was pondering on what to say next, but standing still, she suddenly became aware of how drained she actually was. Still lacking any memory of how she or anyone else arrived on the Bloodwrath, she only assumed whatever process that dragged her her must've been a tiresome one. "I'm actually feeling a bit tired now. The sight of soft beds user tent tarps isn't helping either..." She clenched a single fist and raised it up to her helmet, letting out a weary yawn.
-
The Templar next to her, on the other hand, wasn't tired in the slightest. He was actually feeling rather.. Energetic, though maybe he could use a rest, or maybe a bit of meditation. "Yeah.. You go take a rest.. I'll find something to do. Hmm.. Meditation or training. Or some maintenance on my gear.." [spoiler]Inb4 she invites him over ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)[/spoiler]
-
"yes, meditation is most likely a good idea... might be able to drown out all those wails I can feel out there... and um, thanks for not 'cleansing' me when you first found me, by the way"
-
"I could get flayed alive in front of the Emperor for that, y'know.. Anyway, I'll go on my own way, now.." He takes a deep breath, looking back up, and at the camp, before walking away, his long legs quickly carrying him forwards.
-
Kolandra instead chose to stay put where she was, close enough to the camp to be safe, but distant enough so as to not attract too much unsavoury attention. The portrait of the camp before her was deceiving; she could almost taste the distrust and disbelief within the minds of many of it's residents. All of them had their own grim stories to tell, dark horrors to rekindle within. Perhaps it was best if Kolandra blocked that out for now, she didn't need the worries of young beings to be scratching at her thoughts as she tried to meditate. Calming her mind and soul, the warlock lowered herself to the floor, sitting upright with legs crossed and face sternly forward. Deep breaths were all that she needed, that and some rest of body and mind. Some peace and quiet for once. [spoiler]je suis finni?[/spoiler]
