Oros mission start

[sixth]

WHO: ALPHA TEAM (Carolina, Maine, Wash, K-2SO, April, and Sam) and BETA TEAM (Lee, Somba, Hayatori, Cassian, and Re-L)
WHERE: Oros
WHEN: January 11-???
WHAT: Alpha and Beta teams begin their mission.
WARNINGS: TBD

Catch-all mingle log while Alpha and Beta travel together. Toss up a header for a specific day or event to keep things better organized and then everyone can tag around in that.

(Once we figure out when the sandstorm and fall into the gorge happens to split everyone up, we can add that too to close out the big group log.)

[k_2so]

[He is all too used to people not taking him seriously or considering what he could actually do. Even Cassian seemed to make him babysit a ship more times then he would like instead of being helpful on the job (then again he wonders, sometimes, if the man does it to keep him safe, which is silly).]

[Kay-tu lifted his head as someone came up to him.]

Droid, actually. Robots have less higher thinking functions and are made to do simple tasks. Droids are programmed and built for more optimal needs. And I really wouldn't be surprised. Even my own Captain forgets I can be more helpful to him than most.

[He stood his full height, head tilted to look down at the organic.] Hello.

[leaderboards]

[ perfectly used to impressively taller people, she still has to be impressed by kay-tu's size and design, unconsciously straightening herself up a little in response. not that she was exactly slouching before. ]

Hi. [ there's an almost-awkward beat from her. ] Carolina, leading Alpha team. We don't have droids where I come from, but I've worked with robots and AI before.

[k_2so]

[His size and design is special, built for swift movement as well as taking hits. His type was no longer in production after certain rules were put into place, which might be for the better, really. His model was fairly old now too. There wasn't a need for droids as tall as he was.]

[Perhaps if he had been shorter his personality would have been better.]

[Doubt it.] Oh, so you are the commander for this mission. [He paused, then tilted his head.] Do I need to salute you? [Because he wont anyhow.]

[leaderboards]

That won't be necessary. I don't have an official rank, anyway. [ she hasn't in years. military protocol was pretty skewed in the project that took up most of her career. ]

What do you prefer to be called?

[k_2so]

Good. I'm not much for ranks. Or Saluting. [he said lightly in a flat voice. he did have to pause though, unsure of how to tell her that he didn't care what she called him. Names were organic things, he supposed, but he did like his shortened designation.]

Kay, or Kay-tu, will be fine. There is no point in trying to rattle off my entire designation in a dire situation.

[leaderboards]

Then let's aim for Kay-tu and no one can get mad when it shortens to Kay when shit happens.

[ agent carolina doesn't led itself well to short variations, but she sure likes when she can drop everyone else to a syllable in the middle of a firefight. ]

What sort of combat experience do you have?

[k_2so]

That seems reasonable, Carolina. [She said she had no title so just her name was now what he would call her.]

[His head lifted at the question though.]

Twelve years programmed to assist and work for Cassian Andor and the Rebel Alliance. This includes piloting, infiltration, and combat. Heavy arms, grenades, hand to metal combat, or simply running fast enough. I have scanners and communications set up, as well as some other programs that I will keep to myself if you don't mind. For more specs please speak to Cassian.

[ her brows arch a little, carolina not entirely keeping the impressed expression off her face. this droid seems better than the last robot she worked with, and he came in handy in a pinch as it was. ]

That's... enough, actually. I'm excited to see you in action.
