Snippet #1722917

Sierus' grin dimmed only lightly as he listened to the man. He nodded a few times in confirmation. "One of the new mercenaries?!" He said with surprise. "How delightful! I'm pleased to meet you, Rhev!" Sierus chimed, offering a bright bow. He didn't bother introducing himself. This was about them after all! "Oh, deary me - Yes we get PLENTY of excitement here on the Daedalus. I'd even say that we get non-stop excitement!" He said enthusiastically. "... Okay, so maybe not NONSTOP, but trust me friend - you'll have you'll fill!" He said with a bright chuckle. His arm rested on his hip, matching the man's cross armed pose. One might sense some kind of pride coming from Sierus. Veteranism from being on the Daedalus? Maybe. But it didn't matter - He genuinely seemed to be glad to meet another person that was skilled in fighting. "Too much? O-oh! Nononoooo! No! These?" He said quickly, pointing to his face, and then to his shoulder. "These weren't inherited from the Daedalus, you see. I was hired some time ago as a mercenary! You'd not believe my words...." He said, instantly taking a rather more... wicked glance- his toothy grin grew wider, and and his eyes sharped, eyebrows dipping into an angle. "But I'd say I make quite the adamant fighter!" He claimed. He lightened back up almost instantly, taking a rather innocent look on his face as he shrugged. "Alllllthoooough, I've never had an outside oppinion! So I wouldn't truly know!" He reasoned.

"As for what happened....? Well, that was one HELL of a flight of stairs I went down."

He began to laugh. A bright, rolling chuckle, as he placed his hand on his gut as he healthily laughed at his own little joke. He faked wiping a tear from his eyes. "Ah... Well, that's a question I'll be happy to answer. It's a tale for another time, Mr. Rhev! Probably not a dinner-time tale. A horror story, perhaps. But like I said, pay it no mind on how I lost it for now. I've got to finish greeting the others." He said, reaching out to put a hand on Rhev's shoulder. There was grip. Not paintful grip. But it wasn't weak. He gave a nod. "Another time, I say! But deary me, this enough of me. I'm glad to have you aboard!" His head jolted around, towards the mechanical man in a quick, sudden motion. He had seldom seen any robots like this one. In fact, he very well have could've mistaken Sculley for a man in a mask, and some sort of suit had it not been for his voice. A distinct difference from the kind he disliked.... But the fact that this thing was indeed mechanical made chills run all over his spine. His jade eye rapidly ran up and down the man. It was clear he was thinking for a few seconds. As if wondering what to say. "And we have yet another mechanical fellow? Delighted as well, my good man!" He said, releasing Rhev's shoulder, and offering his hand to the mechanical. "If I were bold, I'd assume you as much as one of Rhev's friends - joining him on mercenary duties? Deary me, I'd say - you're quite intimidating to someone who you stood against!" He said, looking UP at the mech. "Irregardless, it's a pleasure to meet you both." He said cheerfully,
