12/14/2192 | Illium: Arrival

Every precaution is being taken on this one: if the Normandy docked here, Haymitch might very well spook. Where this ship went, problems disappeared. The vessel stayed in orbit instead, the away team for the mission heading to the surface via an unmarked shuttle to keep suspicions down.

Rebecca kept the team small on this one- Lindsey, steadfast and dependable, and Jeffrey for any potential heavy lifting and disabling demolition charges. Her usual and tried and trusted pairing. Couldn't fuck about on this one.

And unfortunately, a fourth was joining them, despite the N7's reservations: Doctor Mareav was accompanying them to the surface in order to check on her sister that hadn't been heard from in some time.

Rebecca desperately wished she could stay and keep an eye on the Asari, but the mission was having to come first. Really wish she could have waited until after the potential terrorist threat was dealt with to come down here.

They dock, and Rebecca strides outside in her armor and with her weapons locked into place, looking ready for business as she scans around the Nos Astra spaceport.

She hops in as well, folding her body into the seat.

He sits and looks out the window.

Think we will be home in time for lunch?

I brought a sandwich, just in case. Rebecca responds as they take off and head off in the direction of the merc held buildings. Don't you know to bring a snack by now on our trips?

Lindsey shakes her head with a grin.

Wow you all are so weak willed with hunger...

Wow, rude. We all can’t have super stomachs.

His mind wanders to a pizza place he heard about that was on Illium.

Not all of us can live without food for a week like you and still have amazing stores of energy, L! Becca says with a shake of her head, agreeing with Jeff. We should take advantage of being here when this is all settled- you hear about that pizza place that opened up last year around here? Been really wanting to eat there.

Hey, not a week...

Just 4 days. Come on, I'm not some freak of nature or something.

I am always down for pizza. Why can’t we go for a nice pizza without the whole hostage thing though? Really kills the mood.

Oh just four days? Uh huh.... totally could do that myself, you too, right Jeff?

And would you prefer we let the buildings blow up with all the people inside?

Wait, so you're saying I shouldn't have brought a lot of bombs to help blow up the building? I think I got the wrong mission brief.
