((That is consensus enough for me.))
Fixer had spent several hours explaining the situation to the MP's that had arrived on the scene. Three Airspeeder units of Ordsec had arrived in good time. When they had deployed to a quiet and serene location lacking in any evidence of blaster fire, they had written up the incident as a false alarm and given Fixer and the Mechanics of Lost Odyssey a fine and warning to not waste Ordsec time. Fortunately for Fixer, Ribber had been present exuding feelings of trust and good will during the process.
It had been hard not to just admit to the Ordsec that there had been a problem and that a near shoot out had occurred. It was luck, and a little ingenuity that had saved the whole lot of them from a nasty scene.
The day had begun to move into the calm of evening and Fixer had begun to shut things down.
When the last Ordsec officer had left with his partner Fixer turned of some of the landing lights and invited whoever had stayed behind for a sit down and some Caf inside the Hangar. The Force knew he needed one, that or a stiff drink.
When the hangar door had been closed and most of the equipment shut off, Fixer sat down with a cold glass of Jawa Beer in hand. He sipped it casually as he tried his best to appear calm and collected after the days strange events.
Face relaxed he looked around the table at those present.
((Those of you who wish to stay and talk about things. Days events, business proposals, or any other desires and/or necessities are welcome to be at the table in the Hangar or otherwise relaxing in the general vicinity. Consequently There is a new 3d image of the Odyssey in the OP for people to look at.))

Doneeda got up from her half torn apart speeder, covered in grease and all sorts of other gunk. She washed her hands and got as much of it off her face as she could , then walked over to where Fixer was sitting and grabbed herself on of the Jawa Beers from the fridge and sat down as she popped the top off the beer. She took a swig and put it on the table, the realization slowly hitting that she actually worked there. Over the course of 12 or so hours, she'd gone from unemployed and without a speeder, to employed, to with a speeder, and into and out of mortal peril. The day'd been a bit of a roller coaster for sure.
Sooo...we god'a condract den? Wi'dad boundy hunder?
Doneeda asked, interested on working on a ship with such a high budget. As well as for something to converse about.
((OOC: Doneeda's speeder basically looks like a Dodge Viper ( the old ones, 90-2001) without wheels....its all floaty and stuff. )

Talgo wanted to see if B3 could still be upgraded, so he appraocched the shopkeeper. "Is it possible to get my droid an upgrade or two?"

Fixer looked at the visor of the Mandalorian who had stayed behind and took a sip of his beer. After a moments consideration he replied causiously.
"I'll let you talk that business over with Jorek, our Droid Engineer. If you want a ship repaired, or built come to me. Also, I'm not too keen on any of you, not employed by me, folks to stay outside the hangar this evening. Your welcome to stay on the landing pads outside, just for me and my crews sanity." Fixer eyed the Mandalorian over the lip of his beer glass and took another sip. A small amount of foam clung to the stuble on his upper lip, which he sucked on instinctively.

Jorgun Rested his arm on top of a large box filled with Dura steel plating, interjector, and other mechanic equipment. The large metal box was but a few feet away from the table where everyone seemed to be gathering. He was scannin the area looking for his little one... she being 14 and not too experienced required him to always keep an eye out... he'd decided to take her on... to protect her, and so he intended to do so.
When he couldnt spot her in the Vicinity he used his armored gloves to rap on thw walls with his knuckles to get Talgo's attention. He then said aloud, not caring if Talgo turned around, "Talgo... Please find Pelle'gri. She is 14 years old and this is like a toy shop for her... dont need her getting into trouble."
Then Jorgun Exhaled deeply collecting his thoughts, and picked himself up from his current position and moved his way over to the table. A thought had been running in his mind.. and he still wanted to address it. As he neared Fixer he leaned down and placed both palms open hand on the table in a curious manner, showing inquisitivness, and said," Tell me... becasue im still trying to fgure you out, how does a shop keeper like you, whom owns a place like this, move as fast as Highly trained elite Sith Trooper? For some reason I cant place you.... and I have a keen sense that you have a background with.... military. Also, before you answer know that i have not forgotten about our business, nor have I---" he trailed as he looked left at the Twilek who'd clearly been working in something greasy, "--Forgotten that After I commision you to build me a ship..You will hopefully allow me to speak with a worker named Jorek Telayen."
He eyed the girl, then put the humourous comment aside and looked back at Fixer. "Because I would really like to speak to him about some equipment that he may know something about."

Fixer shrugged.
"In my time living in the ass end of the Galaxy I learned to be quick." Fixer said before taking a sip of his Jawa beer; the contents of which were emptying quickly. "As far as Jorek is concerned, if you have mutually beneficial business with him then you'll find him around. I'd suggest you just wait for him here." Fixer closed his eyes relaxedly and fantasized about a backrub, or maybe a fishing trip.

After Jorek's little outburst in the height of the little incident, he had slipped away, finding working on the droid from the escape pod more worth his time and had fixed almost everything that was broken, except for its memory cluster, which would take a little longer to restabilize. For the most part though it had access to it's very basic of logistics and memory and could move around.
Jorek returned to where everyone else was, and saw most of them relaxing. He decided to make an effort to be social and grabbed a glass of Jawa Beer, sat down around everyone else. And overheard Jorgun make an inquiry about him. "I'm Jorek. You need something?"

Jorgun spotted the man grabbing his beer. he had taken a seat and announced that he was Jorek Telayen.
"Interesting... my thoughts we correct earlier... you were indeed Jorek. But that is besides the point. I'm here for two reasons. One i have already discussed with...." Jorgun was trying to remeber the other mans name, "Ahh yes.. Fixer. Now i need to speak with you about commisioning you to creat a special weapon for me. I have the materials.. and the schematics... i juist need an engineer who knows what he's doing and knows how to keep a secret." Jorgun lifted a lever on his upper shoulder and a flimsy slid out of his elbow and onto the table. Then Jorgun Scribbled on the back of the flimsy an account number.
"This is the schematic for what i need made.... and this is the routing number for the materials. they are being stored on a planet not too far from here. I can give you a deposit now...however you may want to take a look at whats on the paper first"

Fixer watched as The Mandalorian walked off in no particular direction. His boots thumping against the hangar floor. As the Mandalorian disapeared from sight Fixer took a sip of his beer and set it down on the table.
"Who is that guy? Something about him seems," Fixer hesitated, "Vapad." Fixer drummed his knuckles against the table, and picked his beer back up with a swipe. "I've met a few Mandalorians in my time, but that one seems like a lost Nerf. If you catch my meaning." He said draining the contents of his glass and setting it on the table.
With a grunt of exertion, Fixer stood up from his seat. The chair creaked against the floor, as fixer pushed it back to the table.
"I have some things to do. I'd like to talk to your Pilot when she's ready Jorgun. If I know fringers, she'll have some specifications she'll want on the ship, and it'd be worth it to meet those." Fixer slowly ambled a couple meters over to the Racer he and his employees had been working on.
He cast an appraising eye over the work that Doneeda had done to the ship. Even the crumbled bits of broken ferecrete she'd put into the floor when she had dropped the engines out. He leaned down and plucked at some of the shattered bits of stone and crumbled some of it between his fingers grumbling softly to himself.
After a long assessment of the work done he climbed up the ladder and into the cockpit and sat down in the pilots seat. It seems that it had been made out of some sort of a plastic rip off of nerf hide. He took a look at the controls, and played with some of the switches. They seemed in working order but that would be put to the test when they removed the control unit and took a look at its insides.
His hands took hold of the throttle and he gave it a tug. The top of the handle came loose with a soft plinking sound and fixer nervously looked around a moment before gently putting it back onto the throttle. In his head he made a mental note to fix it later.

Pelle'gri stared as the scene progressed in front of her. Jorgun had only began discussing their actual purpose here far after Pelle distracted herself from the conversation. Pelle had made her way back to the ship she previously tried to take off in. She grabbed all her effects from the cockpit again as she leaned over the edge to take a took underneath the control pad. Her feet off the ground, her stomach laying on the lining of the cockpit, Pelle'gri leaned in a little farther to reach one of the switches on the other side of the small fighter.
The girl fell in, face first on the seat after putting too much pressure on her upper body from leaning and stretching. Pelle began playing around with the switches, knowing that the ship was out of commission. Pelle'gri began playing around with any of the lose parts she could find, but she made sure not to break any of the engineers work. After only a short time, Pelle's attention span began to pester her. The girl jumped out of the cockpit of the ship again and headed towards the table.
Trying to be as smooth as possible, she attempted to grab a jawa beer from the group. Once she got a hand on one herself, she slipped it into her pocket trying not to grab any attention to herself. Pelle'gri then skipped off, finding herself a nice crate to sit on. She opened to drink, feeling very accomplished with herself, but after only a sip of the beverage she began to spit it out and wrinkle her face. "How can people drink this" Pelle said quietly as she held the drink away from her, as if it were going to take the taste out of her mouth.

Talgo, came back instinct telling him the girl was found. The Mandalorian turned to Jorgun and said, "Well, I'm off, good day Jorek."
Talgo then left to his ship.

(( i would really love if Xaojii responded ... im kind of in a jam .. i can't really post again since we are in the middle of a conversation.... but it would be nice if i could get this patched up with jorek and discuss the ship with fixer and pelle'gri present... then again i could see the mandalorian off....))
Jorgun took a second from his conversation with jorek to look up from the table he was hunched over to catch Talgo walking to the exit. Jorgun nodded his respect for the man and assumed he had infact found pelle'gri... being that she was already trying to act older.. by drinking ale. "A funny one that one is... Whats more funny.. is that the little one is my pilot." Jorgun said randomly in a kind, unintimidating voice. Then Jorgun returned to discussing the specifications to the Crush-Gaunts with Jorek.

((sorry. I've had the flu for the past few days and I'm just getting over it.))
Jorek took the flimsy and looked it up using his hardware just exactly what was on the account. "Aren't these illegal? It's been a little while since I've done anything like this. I'm more of a droid and electronics specialist now. Not that I can't... I just would prefer legitimate business for the rest of my life. I don't wanna get pinned for making something you get caught with and sent to the spice mines." He said with reasonable assurance Jorgun would understand.

"Ofcourse. I understand... now, do we have a deal. I keep your name out of my books... and you build me those gloves." He cocked his head in a humorous way. meanwhile he was thinking in the back of his head if should really be letting a 14 year old fly him around the galaxy. Then again she was in position to harm him other then crashing... and he need not worry about dieing in a crash, however she may indeed need to worry about such things.

Jorek looked away for a minute, thinking about it. He had done it before, but that was in the past and what he had now just felt like something he should hold onto. Sure they didn't really know him and it's not as if he hadn't done similar things to other people. Jorgun didn't really seem to do very well at avoiding getting into bad situations. There could be a strong chance he'll get caught.
" I'm sorry. I don't think I will. I really want to stay as legitimate as possible. You're going to have to find someone else." He said as he handed the flimsy back to Jorgun. Jorek felt like he should try and stay as long as possible under the cloak of safety this place might bring.
