Loreley shook her head, 'No, I'm fine. A stiff drink would be nice, but I'm not really into drinking disinfectant alcohol.' She looked to Tarrik, 'If that is all, we should go and leave the medic to his other duties, there must be a lot of injuries to deal with.'
Tarrik stands up, thanking the medic. She joins Loreley. "There should be a bar in the pilot's area, I'd say, if you were serious".
Loreley looked at Tarrik, a stray strand of hair matted to her forehead from all the sweat, she laughed wistfully, 'I would like to but I might need to incinerate this suit first, feels like it's soaked through and through. I probably reek like after a two hour work-out.'
She relays the orders to the comms officer, and Zenobia's hologram soon appears. "Commodore", she speaks in an even tone, but Gailte can tell that there's emotion under the surface. "I'm glad to see that you're well".
'Thanks for the honesty,' Loreley chuckled, 'You're like the sister I never had. I better head for the showers then... and find a change of clothes. Care to join me? Or would that be a problem with that bandage?'
"Thanks for the rescue." She says greatfully. "I was considering there for a moment using another victory class as a ram, to allow at least one of our ships escape. When we were trapped, I thought Motti has set us up, but from what I heard, the situation was different. Can you tell me what has happened, what it will mean to us, and suggested course of action?"
She shakes her head. "I'll come with, I'm sweating too." As she follows Loreley, she removes the bandage and rubs the bacta onto the wound.
Loreley headed to the quartermaster for a set of spare clothes, 'Excuse me, sorry to bother you, I know it's chaos around here right now. I need a two sets of spare underwear and and two overalls, if you have. The lieutenant and I should have the same size, right?'
"I can't be entirely certain. It appears that they fed a false leak about Mothma to ISB, having gotten her to Mon Cala without anyone knowing. Knowing we'd try to intercept, Ackbar sent his fleet after us. Motti split the armada into multiple pieces to try and cover as much ground as he could. Ackbar hit every small detachment with his entire fleet, wiping them out before they could call for reinforcements. He sent Kota after you, because he saw you as valuable, tried to recruit you." She takes a breath and thinks for a moment. "We have to reach Coruscant and see Tarkin as soon as possible. If we're really the only survivors, we could end up either as heroes, or as scapegoats. We have to get to Tarkin right away, to make sure that we control the narrative".
"I look fowards to it. As always, be safe". The mandalorians walk up to Paz to wish him well, admiration in their voices."
The quartermaster stares at the two of them for a little bit longer than was probably necessary, before handing her the clothes and having her sign them out.
Loreley signed and took the clothes, 'Thanks.' She headed out and towards the pilot's showers. 'Looked like the quartermaster liked you in your tank top,' she giggled.
After a few hours, he's returned back to the station. He sees people getting ready to evacuate, though they don't seem to be worried or in a hurry.
Tarrik poses. "Can't exactly blame him. That said, his eyes were just as much on you. I guess that tatts and big tits have such an effect on a man that he can ignore your stench".
