The Dive

Once the ring was removed Talerian and B.O.B. began repairing the door shell to remove the dent and straighten it up, before reassembling the door.

After getting the ring. The robot looked at Talerian. “Thank you, dear. Lisara will appreciate it more than you know.” Mamma’s tone was full of sincerity. The robot leaves for the captain’s quarters, on the way it stops by a supply closet and gets a chain for the ring.

Once they assembled the door frame back together with the corpse still inside the door, B.O.B. sealed the stem bolts and lock nuts in place. Talerian had a disgruntled expression on his face as he realized he had joined a crew full of crazy females. The little robot controlled by Big Mamma was off to give the gear ring to the Captain now and Talerian really didn't want to be around when that happened so he looked at B.O.B. and said, "I really want to be anywhere else right now." B.O.B. replied, "Perhaps a meal and some booze might help you relax Master?" Talerian nodded as he said, "That sounds like a good idea. I don't want to be here when the Captain finds out what just happened."

Then Talerian and B.O.B. made their way down to the local bar for a meal and some decent booze. As they entered the bar they heard a live band playing. The band was loud and rowdy as they wanted to rile up the patrons in the bar.

Live Band at the bar

Talerian was kind of annoyed by the choice of music so he and B.O.B. chose a small table in the corner away from the patrons and band. In fact Talerian had to actually flag down a waitress just to get his order placed. The waitress used the hologram projector on the table to show the menu to Talerian and after some encouragement she convinced Talerian to order the House Special or Steamed Crusteems and a Liquid Galaxy which was a strong booze. B.O.B. looked at Talerian and said, "Don't come crying to me when you are kneeling before the toilet after eating that Master." Talerian sighed as he replied, "This is not the worst thing I have ever eaten before B.O.B.. Keep in we had to live off of bugs and local wildlife during basic training." B.O.B. commented, "If you say so Master."

Talerian then asked, "So have you been able to compile any info on my sister as of yet?" B.O.B. replied, "Yes Master. It seems that the ship called "The Stellar Flare" has been making several trips and carrying a lot of cargo in the process." Talerian asked, "Was anything out of sorts?" B.O.B. answered, "Yes Master. Their cargo didn't make any sense when considering their direction of their trips and the weights were off as well. They claim to she moving feed for a Balanx Farm but the destination they moved through had not Balanx Farms listed and the weight of the crates were heavier than they should have been. They also claim to be moving medical supplies, stem bolts, labor forces for terraforming planets." Talerian asked, "Have you been able to isolate the location of where they are dropping off their supplies yet?" B.O.B. replied, "No Master. As of this point I have only narrowed do the area to the Beta Quadrant." Talerian then sighed and rubbed his temples as he said, "Okay keep me informed if you find out more." B.O.B. answered, "Yes Master.

Then the waitress came back with Talerian's food and drink and served him with a smile while hoping for a big tip.

After getting his meal and booze, Talerian thanked the waitress and smelled the food to make sure it was edible as B.O.B. questioned his choice in food as the loud music echoed in the bar.
