>>5750617>>5750617* He says ugh. Long week lads.

"Ya sure ya aint getting in better shape because of that one magos lady ya been talkin to? Or that Naval representative?" You say and -
you actually did it- you made the old man blush a little
"Well that too!" He says a little sheepishly and you both have a good laugh.
"Do ya best, we'll find something we can test it on." You say and he sighs
"If anyone can it's us." He says and then holds up a finger and tosses ya a book.
"What's this?"
"Read it. It's important. We keep runnin into those metal skeletons it's important ya know history before man even existed as we know it." He tells ya and you nod, another book to the pile of things to do. Granted it's goin straight to the top. Ya walk out with Erihapti for a little while to you see the psyker training
And Ya lovely wife of less than a year lookin lovely as ever. When you arrive the training stops briefly and commences again.
"Heya pretty lady!" Ya say the same thing ya da says to ya ma to her and she blushes
"You are lookin happy" She says
"Happy to see you." You say layin on the shmooze like ya da, but also in earnest, it is good to see her and the training she is doing going so well and she smiles to ya.
"Here to take me to dinner with you tonight?"
"Aye that and maybe go for a little walk"
"We haven't done that in a while." She says stepping next to you putting her tiny hand in yours and Erihapti bounding up next to her whining for attention- which she gets. The only thing on the ship more spoiled than the navigator is Erihapti. Granted- it's close. There was almost a conflict over which navigator house and what navigator would be worthy of the Old Man's ship, especially after they saw the quarters. It ended up being a descendant of the navigators that went with him or something.
"Ya. " You say.
You walk for an hour. You talk about the baby. Make a few jokes, ask her about the training and her work. She asks if ya homesick (Always) if there is any brother ya interested in meetin from the book (Jaghatai Kahn) and how ya work is goin (Better than ya thought). When ya get to the mess, it is one of the most orderly things ya have ever seen. It's still amazing. Despite the size, and countenance, the mess isn't rowdy, it's a little loud but not overly so. Sure there is a little singing at some tables. Eventually Arnoul sits down near you.
"Ah Arnoul- have you come to take my dear husband away?"
"After this, yes. We have matters to attend to."
"Did you get the list?"
"Yes I did. And someone."
"And someone?" You ask in a quizzical tone.
"Arnoul so mysterious." Meera says and Arnoul rolls his eyes.
"Where are your sisters?" He asks.
"Training is running late, but it's due to good progress. The men are adept learners." She says
