Naida's head was lightly nodding to the tune playing, and as she grabbed the chair, she could be heard singing along with the female singer "Oh daaaany boooy oh daaany boooy...I see you like music to fit the scene. Should we put on Red solo cup next?" The fox took a swig from her glass, grinning at her newfound friend over the the rim, tail flicking back and forth behind her.

Across the room, the captain nodded at Aidan "Very well. You will have them before the day is out. And...I prefer the company of my thoughts at this time. Thank you for the offer." She gave a nod of farewell, returning a salute if one was given, walking around the small crowd to a relatively empty spot of the bar not too far away. "Bartender, skim milk with a fruity twist please. Alcoholic if you have it."
Hopeless? Ehm...Naida was the one that walked towards you. Quicklink to CS <3

Oliver smiled as his fellow tiger commented about that he was happy that not everyone was a housecat or flufftail. "There might be a lot of those but some of us are real predators. So those other three behind you are the other infantry, right? Then I better watch my step. Would be a shame to step on their tail and stroke their fur the wrong way if you catch my drift".

He turned his attention to the fireteam, who also looked well-presented and eager, much as the GEAR pilot had done. Nodding to her, he gave a small smile.
"At ease, Captain. Thanks for meeting me, and I'm sorry you didn't get to join in on the exercise. Logistics is always a nightmare, as I'm sure y'all are aware. All th' same, glad ya could make it to us. I look forward ta workin' with you and yer unit. I'm sure there's a bunch we can learn from one another that'll help all of us out when th' fur really starts flyin'. In the meantime, please feel free ta relax a l'il wi' the rest of us an' get ta know everyone. We'll be workin' up the unit proper from tomorrow, an' fer now a spot of r&r is what's needed".


Esailia knit her fingers behind her back and assumed parade rest once she was given permission. "Yes, Sir. Thank you, Sir. I look forward to working with the GEARs as well. We only trained with simulations in the VR, and to be honest, those don't do the actual pilots justice. Until tomorrow, Sir." She saluted and started towards the bar, making a beeline for Aidan. "Doctor." She greeted the dog with a curt nod before continuing "I am aware I have not forwarded my squad's medical records. I was caught in red tape during my infantry requisitions. I did not have time before arriving here. Would you prefer I send the files via PADD or are you one to keep physical documents?"

Meanwhile, the two siblings had quietly followed after Blade, with Edward leadng the way for a change. His eyes were glued to the officer's arm, his hobby of cybernetic tinkering forcing him to try and figure out how the hardware and software interacted. Naida tagged along until they reached the bar, where she muttered "Gonna get a drink, bro. Don't do anything stupid." to which she received a huff from her younger sibling. To each their own. She wandered over to Nathaniel, waving a hand to the bartender "I'll have whatever this 'predator' is having!" She called, slapping White on the back "Makin' friends instead of wooing women for a change? I'm impressed at your self control."

Nathaniel had been ready to reply to Oliver, but was interrupted by the fox. "Yeah, yeah. Least I get some tail, unlike you. I swear, you could give some of these guys a run for their money in the muscle department." He quipped before looking at Oliver "See what I have to put up with? Don't worry about stepping on any tails. No kits or kittens in this squad."

Letting Oliver move on, Nathaniel turned on Naida "Thanks, could've made a first impression the right way for a change."The fox shrugged "You were drowning in ale and bragging as usual, what's wrong with that?" She gave a dismissive wave of her hand before going to pick up her drink, leaving Nathaniel alone on his stool. After grabbing the mug, she turned around and while taking a swig, she glanced around. Things were getting pretty lively...other than the people on the outskirts of the room. She spied another tiger sitting alone, and headed toward's Mike's table...
Writing up a post now. So sorry to those that were waiting for me. Going to fade to grey some things, due to people moving on, which was on me. *Stumbles over apology*

If I missed anyone, please tell me. 3 am and I'm borrowing my neighbor's connection while he's asleep XD
*Sneaks onto neighbor's net* I'll start writing up a post offline, and in the next few days get it posted. Hopefully not too much longer. I apologize again for the delay. Haven't had a chance to get a good read of the posts since my own connection went down
My internet's cutting out soon, I'm using a friend's computer to make this post realy quick. Sorry for my delaying others' posts >.<

Esailia adjusted her dress uniform for the umpteenth time since stepping into the common room. After months of training, drilling, and yelling, her squad had gotten their first assignment. Captain Sprinsteam, sergeant Nathaniel White, and corporals Edward and Naida Wynn. The special infantry unit assigned to the 101st. The feline captain glanced at her second, who was already at the keg. It was that wily tiger that had given Esailia the inspiration to push the boundaries of infantry use. It was rare to see non GEAR personnel engage in combat with GEARs, but Esailia hadn't followed the book for her squad's tactics. Smash-grab and dash. Not the usual seek and destroy rocket teams were sent on.

As Sprinsteam worried over her collar, and White downed the first of many mugs of beer, the brother and sister pair loitered near the back of the room. "Bro, loosen up. It's not like were at the parade grounds!" Naida tugged at her twin's tie in an attempt to get it undone, against Edward's vain struggle to push her away "I don't care, I want to look good for the Captain's superior. A commander is only as good as the soldier they command." Naida rolled her eyes, giving up and taking a swig of beer.

At the stand, Nathanial 'smooth purr' White had made a new friend with the keg, refilling his mug. The sergeant had fallen into this position by pure chance, as he always does with everything in life. One minute he was comfy being a drill sergeant, the next he was training in a special infantry unit. It was one thing to yell at others, but to have some small housecat of a feline yelling at him? Than again, it was amusing to see Esa-kitten get so worked up when he goofed off...Wandering back to his CO, White waved a hand beside his head "Kitten, tighten that uniform any more, and you might as well of worn a corset. Not saying that you don't look good in your embroidered get-up." He joked. He knew how far he could take it without getting a clawed slap to the cheek.

"Thank you for your input, Sergeant. You're not the one that leads this squad. Now shut it, the colonel just walked in." stepping up, she called to all three of her squad "Fall in!" before standing at attention for Colonel Blade. All listened to his little speech, but the moment White noted this wasn't formal, he slouched and headed back to the keg. Esa-kitten could fill him in on anything important later. The twins had stayed for the whole thing, however, both more curious at seeing a fellow fox than caring about the speech. Captain Sprinsteam, however, kept her still-as-a-statue posture throughout the Colonel's introduction, nodding at the end "Thank you, Sir. I assure you we will not fail you. My squad may not have GEARs, but you won't find a harder trained infantry unit."

"Kissing up to the bigger C. Now that's predictable." White muttered under his breath before gulping down the last of his ale. He went for another refill, only to clank cups with another tiger "'Ey! Good to see that this place isn't all housecats and flufftails." He stated, before answering Oliver for the other three "Yeah, the ground pounders for the RoughRiders. We'll make sure no pesky enemy foot fodder blast a hole in your expensive GEARs."


Others in squad:
Sniper/demo expert, Nathaniel White.
Engineer/techie, Edward Wynn.
heavy assault/driver Naida Wynn.
I'm hoping to be able to post more often now.
Sorry about my sudden disappearance. Real life stole me away.
