A Well Timed Reunion

[Metal Gear Seth]

"God it's been years.." Hailey was doing up her hair, indecisive of what to do with it from the nervousness oozing from her, as she thought of how nice it would be to see her old friend again. Nok had been busy for quite a long time, and with Grand admiral Vaxus on mission, she hadn't been as busy as she usually would. Granted ship maintenance was always a big concern, but that was always ongoing, even with all the service, and upkeep Grand admiral Vaxus's brand new pride and joy, the Flagship "Muzzle Velocity Diplomacy" required constantly. New was good, and made better for service, but it didn't change the fact it was a pain in the ass. Thankfully because it was new, it still hadn't much maintenance as it's predecessor.

However, this glorious pride, and joy would be gracing it's bow to her old friend Nok soon enough, and she wanted to show him just how much she'd grown, and the fierce warrior she'd become.

"My choice of shotgun was much more terrible the last time we'd spoke." she twiddled her thumbs slightly nervous as she entered the bridge.

"THAT WAS 3 YEARS AGO!" she froze with her contorted expression on her face in the middle of the room, the officer staring at her outburst, then rather oddly popped into a look of completely unshaking suaveness, swiftly swiping her hand back on her hair as if to lay it down.

"He'll love the Grand admiral." she said with a smirk continuing to walk to the front, the officers shaking their heads in confusion, and going back to what they were doing. The bridge door opened once more, only this time, the officers coming to attention. Hailey turned around, her eyes widening in excitement, and happiness.

"NOK!!" she was like a little girl seeing a close family friend coming back from the dead. Her excitement too much to contain as she ran towards him to give him a hug.

It had been some time since Nok had seen Hex, though it had been much longer for her than for him. After all, what sort of Inquisitor would he be if he didn't keep tabs on his allies? A small grin, or at least the Tiss'shar equivalent of one, crept across Nok's features as he made his way to the bridge. The surprised reactions of the crew members he passed were entertaining to say the least, and served to improve his mood. The disturbance in the Force he'd felt a few days ago didn't bode well, and if he's was right about what it meant, Hex and the rest of the Admiral's crew were in for a surprise.

Stepping into the bridge, Nok braced himself as Hex charged forward for a hug which he returned before backing off a step with a chuckle. "Hex, it's good to see you again. How have you been doing? I hear Admiral Tallav was mad enough to assign you command of a flight squadron, is this true?" Nok of course knew what the answer was, but he found that not revealing such things was better for morale. Glancing around at the officers, Nok gave Hex a sly sideways glance. "Why don't we head somewhere a little less crowded, hmm? Tallav should've been smart enough to put a cantina somewhere on this vessel of his, right? Why don't you show me around a bit?"

Hailey's face lighted up with joy, and excitement when her friend mentioned sharing drinks. Of course the enormous flagship had a rather fantastic cantina, let alone drink selection.

"Absolutely! Just follow me!" she smiled as they walked together, he excitement never once wavering.

"The empire may not be so hot on issuing great gear, but when it comes to the grand admiral, he knows how to treat his soldiers to drink and food." she couldn't help but embrace the sheer joy she was feeling. To see such an old friend after such a long time was inescapably fantastic.
