A Little Droid Enjoys Electricity

Liden smirked. "Of course... you are fee to come and go as you please. I know you are a man who needs his freedom. The selkath will provide you whatever resources you need for your work. I will provide any that they cannot." She started towards the door and brushed her finger across Jin'Lor's cheek as she did. "Feel free to capitalize on my hospitality however you wish. But remember... what we do is important work..."

Liden left the bridge. The air growing less tense as she departed.

A chill ran down Jin'Lor's spine the moment Liden touched hid cheek, but he resisted the urge to flinch. Blue eyes narrowing at her, he watched her for a moment before following in order to find the blasted labs. Something about her behavior was unsettling and even set the system in his spine into a nervous frenzy.

Why did it sound as if she was toying with him?

"You do know I have to get DNA from you in order for this to work, right? I can make a list of the equipment I need, but..." Jin'Lor explained before something she said earlier clicked. "Why do you want them?" He inquired, referring to the group that had escaped them.

Did she intend to get her hands on Ryze, after all?

Ghost kept silent as she gazed toward Mar. A part of her resented him for defending Ryze, everything in her life still stinging with fresh deep cuts to her emotions. Stepping away, she pulled Carla close and pet the chicken, turning her back to them. A part of her just wanted to find a corner and disappear.

"Just so you know, Mar," She said over her shoulder. "VT is having fun eating part of your wall." With her robotic arm, Ghost pointed to said droid eating wires from an open panel in the wall. The little droid was squealing happily as said wires kept electrocuting him.

Meanwhile, Ryze had taken it upon himself to keep his distance and was hiding out with all the medical supplies. He looked over bottles and supplies as Ring swayed back and forth. The old weapon let out a soft and calming tune throughout the ship, doing its best to keep the man calm.

"I know, Ring," Ryze said with a sigh and set down the bottle he was reading before returning to the bridge. He had found a shirt and wrapped bandages around his neck to hide the scars as best he could. Looking to Mira, he grimaced and crossed his arms over his chest. "I'm going to have to stay on the ship when we get to Mandalore, just to let you know. I'm not exactly well liked..."

He did not want to mention there was quite a hefty price on his head for all the crimes the AI had forced him to do.
