Just a pilot passing through

[Hey look, the G-Saviour is back in the hangar! Complete with Tobia.]

I'm just here for resupply. Tron and her brothers are free again, so I need to return to Mother Vanguard very soon!

But oh boy, I heard what happened on Earth since I left. It's only been a few weeks, and stuff got really crazy already! What's next, an enemy bigger than Earth?

Here's where the Crossbone Vanguard comes in! We're going to stop Dogatie before he can start a war with Earth for real.

You don't mean an alcoholic drink, do you? Sure.

Either or. Even if the Britannians liked to enforce their laws back home, they can never stop a good frenchman from enjoying himself. Even more when he's halfway across the world in a ship named after a cup.

[not_the_deer]

Maybe, but I'm not a Frenchman. And I'm underage, you know!

[paladin_robot]

So? I was even younger than you when I had my first drink... though that was admittedly because I'd broken my leg and we had no anaesthesia.

You didn't have Captain Berah watching over you.

She can be really scary if she wants to.

[paladin_robot]

Scary? You're facing an Empire from Jupiter, whilst piloting a metal death trap, and its a mere ship captain you think is scary?

[not_the_deer]

Yes.

The Jovians can't make me clean toilets for the rest of my life.

...Fair enough. Water it is.
