She picks her ear when she hears the voice. What the hell? She goes to glance around but her current pal catches her attention again.

"Hey, you in some kinda trouble? Could you use a friend? Like one that maybe makes you stronger, I dunno. Just spitballing?"

Oh heeeeey, the octopus's goggled eyes turn to face Clarke.

All these other chucklefucks done been ignorin' me fer some damn reason!

He uses the fight breaking out to slip an arm underneath the nearest bar and snag a couple bottles of whatever he can get before slopping off his barstool and scooting over to Clarke.

Name's Taak, you can call me Eight Sticks! He pauses. Or Taak. Ah don't much give a shit.

He offers Clarke one of the drinks!

Gil sees this woman flip the man on a table, then starts choking him with a chain. No one else seems concerned!



"You fucking owe me, shazbot stain!"

---

Birdman seems less concerned but more confused!

"Again, I don't know what you're talking about. Unless...are you with them?"

What's the bart- oh, there's an octopus.

"Hello. Can you hear me when I speak audibly, as well?"

Clarke asks, reaching out to take one of the drinks.

But not consume it. He doesn't know what the hell it is.

Is there something on her face? Sabrina resists the urge to check and instead heads over to Daiyu!

"There you are. Find anything that sounds good?" A friendly smile as she reaches the table, keeping her distance from the birdman that is visibly recoiling.

"I may be..." she bluffs.

He just said them. He could mean the other humans. It's his fault for being vague.

Until Sabrina shows up.

"Huh? what do you mean?" she kinda half-whispers. Don't blow her cover.

Alright, and now a weapon was involved. It was getting interesting. He'd take a breath, slowly starting to focus his power inward as he moved forward, his hand shooting out, flattened like a blade to try to break through the chain.

Finding trouble it was!

"I don't have it. Tell him its long gone and he'll never see it again, SPY!" He stands up, fluffing his feathers at both girls!

Her eyes widen at the display, and she struggled to keep from laughing.

"Uh. You're so right. But calm down. Please. Can I interest you in a friend? Come on! Just do me a solid here!"

Sabrina frowned, confused and taking a small step back as birdman got agitated.

"Sorry, just wanted to know what sounded good on the menu to my friend." She has no idea who 'they' are and what about money, but it seemed like a bad time for the alien.

"Didn't mean to spook you."

Shore can!

He slaps an arm across the top of his bottle and takes a swig.

Now Ah cain't help but notice that you fellers don't quite look a whole lot like most a' the other folk 'round here.

An arm comes up plaintively. Not that Ah mean anything by that! Ah just mean... ya sure weren't here 'bout half an hour or so ago, am Ah right?

"You would be correct, Eight Sticks. Actually, my comrades and I have only recently left our planet for the first time."

He's pretty sure. Unless one of them is quite the adventurer.

"Actually, while we are able to get around through the ship's auto-pilot, I'm afraid none of us likely know how to pilot the ship."

"You are not making any sense. State your business, be it for the Yemme or your own." He stops fluffing, but still stands, slowly taking notice that a few other people are looking their direction as well.

Do what now?!

Clarke might swear he sees Taak's eyes bulge out from behind his goggles!

Where'd you get this way out from on nothin' but auto-pilot?!

"Alright! I'm not a spy. I don't work for anyone."

She lifts her leg and places in on the table, exposing Budhir on her thigh.

"I'm just trying to help my Buddy make a lifelong connection. And you seemed..."

What the word...

"Compatible?"

She really should be looking into this big conspiracy but she's got a one track mind right now.

"We weren't initially on auto-pilot. We were taken from our planet, then took the ship."

Clarke says matter-of-factly.

Gil strikes the chain, but nothing really happens! It probably feels like how when a regular person strikes a regular chain. Both the choker and the chokee slowly look up, confused.

"What the frak are you doing?"

That actually makes Gil smile, right before he jabs another flattened palm for the woman's throat!

Sabrina shook her head.

"Only thing I want is find the fastest way home. Without running into these Yemme or whoever is even better.

"Why would you think we're with them?"  It's the lack of feathers and extra limbs, isn't it?

Gil's strike is caught in a loop of the chain as she turns and swings him hard into the jukebox, changing the song changes!

The choking alien slides off the table and hides underneath it!

"Who else would be interested in me in a place like this?" He responds to Sabrina before turning towards Daiyu, now slightly more intrigued!

"You have a protozoa...why?"

Well that kinda sucks, Taak says, rubbing under his chin with an arm. Except he doesn't really have a chin.

Where y'all from, then?

He'll survey the other fleshy weird looking bipedals as he asks.

"It's a long story but he wound up in my ship."

Something like that.

"I can see the glimmer in your eyes, though. Are yoooou...interested?"

"Doesn't matter."

Clarke shakes his head.

"If we went back now, I wouldn't be learning about all these different species, such as yourself. We haven't met any intelligent species before, as we hadn't left our solar system yet."

As he goes flying he would twist his body so that his feet would slam into the jukebox allowing him to launch off it back at her, pulling back on the chain to pull her toward him as he sent a fist flying for her!
