She mentioned something about a wombat in a garden." :::He takes another sip of coffee.::: "Mame, where did you see this wombat?"

Seren glances at her radio in her cockpit, turning the Alpha's head in the direction of the AAT-30, nodding just a little bit and relaxing. "Right. The sooner they can relieve me, the sooner I can go back to helping cleanup..."

She happens to look around further, and watches the Spherian's outburst at the Colonel. "Er... what's she on about?"

Excuse me...
CHARLES DICKENS!
CHARLES DICKENS!
CHARLES DICKENS!
A CHRISTMAS CAROL!

Thought so...this thing is even worse than the early UN language translation program that rendered the phrase 'The Spirit is willing, but the Flesh was Weak' as 'The Booze was okay, but the Meat was bad"

Okay, experimental rant mode over...

Skor is suddenly startled to hear a harsh barking rendition of Spherian from beside him, turns and sees a large heavyset humanoid, dressed in armored leather, with lock tangled dark-gray hair and prominent forehead ridges, waving a wickedly-curved blade of some sort.

(Commander) Kor: (free translation) "Well, out with it, you rock! Or by Kahles' great-beard, I'll shout some more!"

Seren nods slightly to the beat up Gladiators. "Thanks, guys." She steps her battloid away from it then, looking back for the park incident, among other things, for what to clean up next.

She then glances back down to listen to the situation with the seemingly insulted Spherian woman. "Misunderstandings do happen, certainly. I can understand that..." She shrugs slightly, switching her Alpha back down into guardian mode after making sure it's not in the street or somewhere it will cause problem, leaning the nose to the ground and hopping out for the moment, to walk to the others. She pulls her helmet off and leaves it in the Alpha, for the moment.

Seren looks over towards Ara, shaking her head very slightly and rolling her eyes. "If this is a 'great' day to you, remind me not to be around you long enough to see a bad one." She looks around the disaster area and sighs, though she tries to smile at any locals who look her way.

Seren's eyes widen distinctly as a full size Zentraedi boot lands next to them. She was /very/ close to where the boot was, so almost dodges out of the way. "Hm... that is not good..." She peers at the boot, to see if there are any identifying markings. Only to suddenly flinch away as she nears the opening. "Phew... Someone REALLY needs to use athlete's foot powder, or get odor eaters, or something..." She reels back from it, coughing softly and peering around at the party.

Seren nods a little at the Vicks, smiling to the Colonel. "Thank you..." She's just trying it, getting better when the next item falls.

She just... blinks as the cup falls, making a break for the Alpha as soon as it comes to rest. She's rather frantic as she pulls open the canopy. She grabs her helmet as quickly as possible, and hurries back to the group, strapping it on and making certain for the environment seal. "It's no longer playing when the equipment is being thrown into the city streets..."

Seren watches the little display, shaking her head slightly and rolling her eyes. She makes damned sure to dodge the helmet, though. She looks over to the Colonel after she hears the question. "Personally, I think if he has enough cola, I don't want to be here if he decides he has to go relieve it right away."
