We'll see how the story unfolds. I think it could go either way depending on character interaction and IC benefits for both parties remain to be seen. I'd love to be a permanent party to the crew being that I like writing with you lot, which is a major part of why I made this character and storyline to introduce him into the fold, but not enough has happened to determine if he is a good fit for the crew and vise versa.

Do you want me to submit the details you wanted? I was planning to but it seems now that they were more for the crew portrait and I hardly expect to be a part of that considering where we stand IC at the moment.

Jace I'm going to try to post tonight in response to watching me work. Maybe we can get a short interaction in before we skip ahead.

So should I just wait for the time skip before posting again? I was going to work on one tonight but I'm not really sure where to go with it since everyone else is on an entirely different page than me.

Get to the bridge, help out with preparations. Get to the bridge, help out with preparations. Daniel thought over and over again as he ran through the ship to toward the cockpit, the repetition of thoughts wasn't necessary for remembering what to do, it was simply to keep his focus on what he needed to do as opposed to why he needed to do it. He had to keep his fear in check until this was all over and just hope for the best outcome, of course part his mind he was also trying to work out the statistical probability that they could survive an attack like Jace had said while the other part was trying to ignore the first part entirely, it was a practice he wasn't familiar with but one that he was sure he would come to rely on should they, or rather he, survive what was coming.
When he made it to the lift he moved anxiously about the enclosure as it traveled upward to the bridge level, he watched the numbers change and then slid through the doors as they opened and ran through the hall and the lounge, passing Dante and another man he did not know in the process without even noticing they were there because his entire focus was on preparing the ship...
And now he was on the bridge, in the cockpit, alone and taking in the various buttons, knobs, meters, and gizmos as he tried to sort out what to do next. And he. was. completely. lost. Nothing on looked even vaguely familiar to him, in fact this was the first time he had even been inside of a cockpit, that he remembered clearly anyway. There was the time right after Coruscant, but he was in shock at the time and really had no idea where he was.
He paced around the room looking at all of the panels, without a clue of where to begin making preparations. But wait, preparations for what exactly? He had no idea what he was even preparing for now that he got a good look outside the viewport, they were in some sort of hangar so apparently he had missed quite a bit while he was locked in his closet trying to unlock some of the mysteries of the Eye of Ono Kli. He suddenly felt this overwhelming anxiety as he realized just how out of place he truly was among the stars, even so far as becoming weak in the knees and falling into one of the chairs. What was he to do? It was now more than ever that he realized just how much he didn't belong here and he knew somehow that he would die out here, if not today then sometime along the way to finding a relic that he has only theorized about. What if it didn't exist? What if he dies out here for nothing? He'd be a complete laughing stock in the archaeological community.
He leaned forward and cupped his head in his hands, resting his elbows on his knees. I can't do this. They were all right, I'm going to fail and for what? An old piece of metal that might not even exist... He sat back and rubbed his fingers through his hair, and then down over his face until the first thing that came into view was the galaxy map on one of the consoles. He paused and narrowed his eyes, then tilted his head slightly to the right and leaned forward. "Interesting..." He quickly got out his new notebook and flipped through the pages, stopping about halfway through and looking back and forth between the map and his journal. And soon his eyes brighten up as he has his epiphany. "incredible." He beings to jot down notes in his journal once again, his confidence seemingly restored by a mere coincidence.

I posted Jace, sorry if I crossed the line in putting words in your mouth, I just thought it would be funny. If you want me to change it I will.

As Jace grabbed Daniel it sort of confirmed what he had already suspected, that Jace was hiding something but he had no idea how big it was until Jace was almost done speaking. Pile of bodies? Fleet of Star Destroyers? What the hell have I gotten myself into? Were the only thoughts that ran though Daniel's head as he listened to Jace explain why it had slipped his mind to check the more obvious places. Even the initial startling he got when Jace grabbed him so firmly and abruptly faded away with the words spoken and subsequent thoughts that followed. This is the end, I'm going to die. First the bar, then the Jekk, apparently some sort of other attack that produced a 'pile of bodies' to be disposed of, and now a fleet is on it's way to obliterate us. And I haven't even been with these people for a week. The doctor's widened eyes at the explanation of the situation probably told the whole story, he was terrified. He knew that he had to do something but what could he do? He felt so helpless, nay useless, with everything going being so far out of his control and waaaay out of his comfort zone. It wasn't until Jace brushed off his shoulders that Daniel blinked and looked down thinking of what to do next, the gravity of the situation finally kicking in. "I-I-I um-uh, I uh, it's in the um medbay," his eyes were closed as he quickly thought aloud about where he had put the cleaner, he even pointed in the direction of the medbay then started to make a shape of a box with his hands, it's in a box, a bluish box-er tub, I mean tub, it's got some other cleaners with it. On the bottom shelf by thee um," he touched his forehead with his index and middle fingers as he thought about what he was trying to say, "washer and dryer."Clearly he was flustered, but he spoke quickly and with urgency. "Yes, in a blue tub on the bottom shelf by the washer and dryer. Alright, I'll see you on the bridge."With that he started quickly heading toward the stern of the ship before he heard a voice behind him say, He turned on his heel and quickly started walking toward the bow, "Right I knew that, just got turned around is all." He said as he quickly walked past Jace.

He brought himself up next to Daniel and smiled, grabbing an empty cup so that he could get a cup of stim. Once he was sure he had the good doctor's attention, he nodded to him. "Hey Daniel, do you know where that really good cleaner we use for the bathrooms is? I can't seem to find it." His first interaction with anyone since his breakthrough, if you could call it a breakthrough that is, he simply checked into some record and did some minimal research, anyway it was his first interaction since he figured out where they were going next and it was about bathroom cleaner--Yes that's right, bathroom cleaner. And oddly enough Daniel knew exactly where it was since he was the last one to use it, of course it begs the question as to why Jace needed bathroom cleaner when Daniel had already cleaned the bathroom, albeit poorly but it was sanitary and nothing a some window cleaner wouldn't take care of. As he walked to the table he took a quick drink of his stim-caf before setting it down and picking up the cream and sniffing it to make sure it was alright then poured some in his stim and added some sugar. He was silent as he did this, even when he stirred his stim and once again took a drink. His wheels turning as he thought about possible reasons why the man could want the cleaner if not for the bathroom. "Did you try the bathroom?" He turned to face Jace with a grin on his face as he took another drink and leaned against the table. "Of course it would stand to reason that that would be the first place you would check considering what you are looking for is bathroom cleaner, and logically it should be in the bathroom. Then again you have to think of the possibility that it could be in a maintenance closet but of course you probably would have checked those next since that would be the most likely alternative to the bathroom. Right?" He took another drink of his stim and pushed off the table looking down at his cup as he swirled the contents around. It was truly terrible stim, but it did the trick. And as he swirled his drink around he thought about how to go about asking Jace why he smelled like sweat and chemicals if he was to ask about it at all, he also wondered why the man's appearance was rather disheveled. He was obviously cleaning something very difficult to clean and from the look of it he was probably in a hurry while doing it. "So I'm guessing you came to me because I was the last one to use it and I probably didn't put it in the right place, I'll have to apologize for that, I was still pretty shaken when I used it and so I'll have to think about where exactly I put it, I think I have a good idea thought." He took another sip of his stim as he started to walk out the door with no sign that he was headed anywhere but straight across the all to the medbay.

There was so much excitement and danger that had been going on: An attack on the ship, spies, death squads, a climactic hide and seek, and torture sessions with a crazy man. And where was the resident doctor of archaeology during all of this? Had he been captured? Was he hiding in fear from the dangers that loomed about? Or worse, had he been-*gulp*-killed?
No, of course not. Dr. Logan was indeed alive and unharmed, in fact he had been completely oblivious to the goings on around him as he was safe and sound locked away in his makeshift study, a little room just off the dining room, no bigger than the size of the bathroom he had broken down in after leaving Coruscant. It was a closet really, but it offered him privacy and most importantly silence so that he could continue with his work. He had spent the vast majority of his time since his brief conversation with Karana avoiding people in order to further his knowledge of where they may be headed.
But why didn't he hear anything?
Excellent question, when researching, Dr. Logan likes to listen to a variety of the galaxy's music and he fortunately had his music player and earbuds had been in his pocket and not in his pack during the Jekk attack. So there he sat on a chair from the dining room, listening to music and writing notes in his journal, also documenting his journey as he went along. It was his thoughts that if he could use his knowledge and experience gained here to teach future archaeologists that there was more to archaeology than just reading about dead cultures and translating old texts and show them there was also adventure and new discoveries to be made then more may take interest this field.
But those were thoughts for another time, he needed now to focus his studies on the Eye, well actually the Eye of Ono Kli. He knew that it's origins were on Dorin but that it had been moved to protect the secrets of the Baran Do. He was narrowing down the possibilities one planet at a time, it wasn't efficient but he was making progress. It was his belief that the first planet they needed to visit was Corulag, in his research he had found that the old Baran Do Temple had been scavenged by a private company and their origins were located within Curamelle, Corulag's capitol city. Now all he had to do was report it to the captain, he just wanted a few more answers first, and a drink.
He walked out of the small room and into the dining room, his head still buried in a book, and over to the drink dispenser. Without looking he grabbed himself a cup and pressed the button for coffee, it was truly horrible coffee, but it sufficed and kept him as awake as he needed to be. He still had trouble sleeping with those Jekk still on his mind.

Sorry for the late arrival, though I'm sure I wasn't exactly missed as far as the story goes. I'll be honest, I haven't had much of a chance to read anything from the other site and for that I'm sorry. However if I could get a quick rundown of what transpired there I could have a post here shortly after...if that's ok of course.
