Denak bows his head respectfully to Aria, followed by another one to the barmaid after his Chai was delivered, taking a deep, satisfactory breath in as he took the first sip. "I manage, been doing contracts and that's about it. And you?"

"hay aria i prefer using my hands, i should get round to checking the status of the gladiator match application, seems to have made concord a little uncomfortable, but i cant seem the harm if no one can die " speaks steady while pouring himself a drink

steady quick closes the ground as the crowds part it becomes clear, a cardi clone had become a little handsy with one of the barmaids and was now holding her tightly arguing over the service at the bar.

Steadys normal peaceful and happy demeanour had vanished and instead had been replaced by a torrent of rage, his normally spotless clone was now covered in matri war tattoos that had become more and more vivid the angry he got. flanked by mist the cladri suddenly noticed the oncoming pair.


"oi stay out of this slave" spoke the clone and with that all pretence of claim vanished from steady. as he dived towards the clone. with a thunderous crash steady hits the midsection of the clone sending them both and maid flying over the table. Mist quickly grabs the girl and moves her to a safe distance.

the pair both quickly get to the feet, using unnatural practice born out of lifetimes worth of fighting. steady drops into a natural fighting pose and the caldari charges at him. as the clone expects steady to make some kind of defense movement but finds steady unexpectedly takes the hit to upper chest and which point the clone release his mistake too late, shifting his body around the punch steady uses the clones unnatural strength to power both sides of caldari arm, snapping it like a twig.

the caldari lets out a howl of pain that is interrupted by steady shifting his wait and tripping the clone, on the way down steady grabs the clone other free arm twisting it behind him and making sure the clones face impacts the table with some force which is rewarded by a bloody spray as teeth and jaw split out from the clones mouth.

"Hey, everyone" steady looks up to find Xander walking in looking a lot more upbeat than normal.

"oh hay Xander while your up you couldn't grab the peacekeepers could ya" spoke steady in a cheerful voice as his tattoos began to fade

With a nod, Aria slips her hands into her leather jacket pockets. "I've been okay. I'm going to order my new electronics for my suit today. But besides that, I visited my family and friends back in Coricia. My older sister is pregnant," Aria's eyes light up with excitement as a large grin appears on her face, "so I can't wait to become an aunt. I also," She pauses to think while gnawing at hee bottom lip, "tried to talk to my father as per my mom's request, but the two of us can never see eye to eye. We never got along while I lived there and probably never will."

Coughing into her hand, she slouched slightly into the chair. "I also went to visit my ex girlfriend's parents and her grave. Talk with her for a little bit. I don't get a response but it feels good to say all the things I," Stopping to wipe a few tears away and clear her throat since it was starting to feel extremely dry. With a deep breath, she looked down at her sneakers, "wish I could say and would say if she was still here."

"You ever think they miss you?" She asked quietly.

Yawning tiredly, Aria nods her head at the new guy before leaning back in her chair. "Hey. How you doing?"

She chuckles and sips her bottle of water. "It isn't all great on the Matari side. Sure we have a lot of terrioty but I'm sure with all the new clones we have that it won't last for long. They either don't rehack enemy objectives while other teammates keeping the enemy preoccupied with shooting or they stand there and don't cover you while you hack." She rolls her eyes with annoyance. "Sometimes I feel like I'm the only one with some common sense to see the battlefield full scale, see where enemies are and aren't, and use that knowledge to secure a win. But sometimes one person can't carry the battle on their shoulders." I'd rather get a lot of deaths and win, than kill a lot of enemies and lose. The main goal is capture the objectives, if that doesn't work then you begin to kill as mainly enemies before the MCC is destroyed."

"I hope in the future both sides have clones that understand how to fight and when to get to a safe spot to recollect shields and armor."
