Toni smiles as Gin is reunited with her bagpipes but is a bit concerned that their warm haired companion could not recover her books, Toni smiles at Grok, “What can we do to earn all of our gear back?”

"Yeah.. or what's it gunna cost" Thrash would add standing behind Toni as thrash tightens his hat on his head. 

The yellow Lashunta seems to brighten up more when reunited with her pipes, the wings at the side of her face fluttering in delight as she plays a quick tune with them. "Ahh, it's been too long!" She sighs, almost dreamily, giving them a loving pat. After a moment, she looks to the others, seeing as they were unable to get their items back. She thinks, then, after Grok answers the question, gives Toni a look. "Wanna do a little performance before bed? See if we can buy their stuff back?"

To get your stuff back (weapons, armor, that other shit that DnD characters carry around but never use) each of you must pay 30 gold.

"Shit that's all!" Thrash would exclaim before letting out a hiss in pain as he stiffens up and reaches back towards his fresh wounds. "And here I was thinking I was gunna have to kill someone and exchange their stuff fer my own." The lizardfolk would say with a sign-like hiss. "I guess it's my own mistake fer not asking sooner.... ya know what they say about assummin things" Thrash would grin and shake his head before heading outside the quartermasters office and waiting for Dani and the red haired one to exit. Once he saw them leave he would motion for them to come over and speak with him. "Psst Dani... Red...sorry I don't know yer name... So what's the plan fer making some coin?" Thrash would whisper quietly to the two women.  "I mean killing someone for it is still an open option as far as im concerned.. but I don't know what ta do with the body.. maybe dump it in the incinerator.. Could hide it in the garbage tonight and burn it tomorrow while i'm on duty." Thrash would look to Dani and the red haired woman.. gauging their reaction... If they don't seem interested in that idea he would shrug. "Or I could challenge people to wrestling matches and hunt fer coins in the garbage I guess... I ain't got no coin to gamble with and I ain't much good at it." 

I didn't get my spellbook back. I glare at the quartermaster until it becomes awkward. I turn to leave, ignoring the others.

I step out of the office. The lizard man and the one called Dani are talking, and he motions me over. I look at him for a moment. He is speaking to me like I am part of this group, this..collection of prisoners. Like we are some sort of team. It makes no sense to me.

I walk over and listen to what he has to say.

"I'm Ashley." I say finally, after a long extended silence. "I'm not familiar with what plan you are talking about, do we know each other? I don't remember anything before arriving here. What body? I am under the impression that disobedience is very punishable, as your whipping so demonstrated." 

"I only know your stuck here like me... and I figure we all got more options once we get our stuff" Thrash would reply with a smile. "I don't have much of a plan right now... before showing up here I mainly got coin by taking it from other people, which often envolved killin some of 'em... so if ya got other suggestions i'm all ears.."

Dani's eyes widen at the mention of killing something, but she looks at an absolute loss regarding how to make money.

I observe the lizard man carefully. Suggestions for what? Getting our stuff? And then what? I remain silent.

"Cause I get the feeling you dont like diggin in the garbage an you don't seem like the mop pushing type" Thrash would continue. "Omce we get our things... then we got options. We can try to get off this ship the first chance we get... Or" Thrash would pause and get even quieter... "Or we could try to take this ship fer ourselves"

Toni nods at Grok, “Thank you, Grok. Let’s go, Gin, I think our fellow people are having a pow wow without us.”

Toni walks up to the group as Thrash is talking about killing,

”What are you all talking about? Me and Gin thought we’d make some money playing music for the group. No need to kill anyone, most everyone here was hired the same way we were.”

"I don't believe I was made for mop duty. Something inside me tells me so." Ashley admits. "What you suggest is a bold plan. I don't think i'm ready for such a task as of yet."

I turn and look at the newcomer. 

Gin pops up behind Toni. "Yeah! We're popular L-pop stars back at our home planet. Getting these clowns entertained with our sound should be easy as pie. Just gotta hope they're not cheap with their tip money."

Oh. There's two of them. I don't understand what that one is saying, so I stand with the group, quiet. Waiting.

"Well I was talking about putting my skills to use to make some coin.. but if ya think you can earn enough ta get us our stuff back.. than by all means go at it." Thrash would reply looking from Toni to Gin. "I ain't never heard of any L-pop... sounds like some kind of dessert to me but if it makes ya money than I'd be interested in hearin it." The lizardfolk would pause and look around quickly before continuing. "I was just saying that once we get our stuff back, we'll be in a better position ta jump ship at the first chance we get. I got the feeling Ashley here wouldn't want to leave her book behind and I know I am a little attached to some of my weapons..." Thrash would grin and continue. "OR... if we get our stuff back we COULD consider trying to take over this ship for ourselves... but it sounds like the first thing we otta do is get some coin."

"I'm afraid I do not possess many money making skills at the moment." Ashley said. "At least..none that would benefit us here and now."

But I know that's not entirely true..

"I wonder if they have any sorta pit fights or anything on board this ship. I'm afraid I ain't good at much other than fighting and making some real simple weapons and things outta scrap" Thrash would think aloud. "Sounds like your Dessert music might be our best route" he would say with a smile to Dani and Toni. "I suppose I'll go give it a listen" The lizardfolk would say as he prepares to follow Toni and Gin towards where they intend to play.

Toni smiles at thrash, “Thank you for the vote of support.” The Lashunta will turn to Ashley, “I’m sorry about your book. Your name is Ashley right? If there is anything we can do to help you, gin and I would be happy to earn enough to get your stuff back!” Toni will look to Dani, “you as well, Dani.”

Later: After setting up a makeshift stage in the Galley, Toni goes around letting the crew know that there will be a concert tonight. 
Gin and Tonic’s first pirate performance starts, their L-pop music seems so different in their relatively intense environment, Toni slamming away on her electric drums, floating in an anti-grav position with its multitude of electronic sounds and beats, her voice cutting in with a punky flavor, inspired by their criminal surroundings. Gin’s electric bagpipes flow out through the crowd in multitudinous melodies, harmonies and a droning bass line. TONI’s PERFORMANCE: 20

It had been too long since Gin touched her bagpipes. The Lashunta normally tried to play them everyday as to not lose her bagpipe mojo, so she hoped when they performed, her muse would come back to her full force to impress these criminals and get some coin.

Gin’s Performance (not sure if with adv since we’re playing together so I’ll roll twice): 13 | 21

Too long was correct, yet when she steps onto the makeshift stage, Gin is transported back to their home world. The first time she had ever performed in front of a large audience was quite daunting to the younger Lashunta, but after a few beats and hearing Toni’s voice, her muse hits her like a full speed train.

She plays as if it was her first time on a stage and nails it right on the head.
