Week 2, Day 2
"Woah, pretty."
The comment from the CO was ill-timed, but reflective of the captain's own combined antipathy and anxiety towards hanging around the heating up GLOSEC cordon. A scoutship had just gone nuclear only a few AUs closer to Germanicus, near Ger I, and he had no desire to embroil Blue Sky's limited assets in that conflict. When companies fought states, minus a few historical incidents, states were triumphant.
"Course locked in, commander. We're rendezvousing with the Sunspear - she's inbound from Farholme according to Cnc."
The captain nodded. Two birds, one stone. The valuable materials the Sunspear was hauling in from the corporate colonies in Severian would be worth a pretty penny on the open market, especially in a market hungry for wartime supplies. Enough to tempt in pirates, if anyone had leaked or some brigand got lucky. By coordinating their own return to Earth to dispose of the capture weapons and prisoners, they could remove temptation.
"Take us in."
The familiar prismatic light of the wormhole enveloped the destroyer flotilla, and soon the welcome green and blue glow of old Terra bathed the starships.

After stealing the ship, we steered toward some random galaxy.
"Where is this place?", 3vilFISH asked.
"It's called Sol, it is my galaxy.", says 3vilRabbit
"So what, are we going to find more mutant rabbits?"
"Oh great, oh great... I just realized I haven't checked the reacters all morning...", she grumbles.
A few hours later something reveals itself in the distance.
"A ship?"
The ship suddenly splits in half, to reveal a smaller ship, stocked with guns.
"Oh no..."
A huge blow hits the ship, throwing everyone to the ground.
Everyone gathers together in the main room of the ship.
"We have to escape them."
"I'm the ships' mechanic, I could repair the dent in the wing.", 3vilRabbit says.
"You would need a distraction would be needed, I could do that.", says G00dFish88.
"Okay, you grab our what, one, two weapons? and start shooting them."
Out on the wing:
"Okay, I have to find a way to fix this...", 3vilRabbit mumbles.
"Ah, there's the dent!"
"I can patch it up with some space debris if I can find some..."
Where ever G00dFish88 is:
"We have what, an AK-47, and a pistol? I can figure out something..."
G00dFish88 starts shooting at the enemy ship.
A man with a scraggly long beard appears in the window. He yells something to the rest of the crew.
All of a sudden, the guns turn towards G00dFish88.
"I got the wing fixed!", 3vilRabbit yells.
"I-I just gotta escape!", G00dFish88 says, worried.
The guns start to shoot.
G00dFish88 falls to the floor, screaming.
"I'm done for...", G00dFish88 says with his last breath. "Goodbye..."
"We did it!", 3vilFish88 yells.
"Oh no..."
"Is he... Dead?"
"He-he must be..."
"No time to waste, he might be dead, but we'll die too if you don't get to steering!", yells 3vilFISH, who just ran in the room.
3vilFish88 runs to the control center.
"Turn that, turn this, flip that, flip this."
"Hey, I've got an idea...", he says, smiling.
3vilFish88 turns on autopilot and runs out of the room.
With little knowledge of where it's supposed to go, the ship steers itself towards the enemy ship...
Okay, I know this is bad, it's my first roleplay though, so give constructive criticism.

Week 2, Day 2
With the Sunspear's cargo offloaded and safely in Strohl Munitions hands, and a new fabrication unit in her belly, her captain turned to the second part of his itinerary - securing further intrepid individuals willing to work for good pay in the unforgiving void of space. While Axiom Base was well populated with idle hands, any other efforts by Blue Sky to colonize other regions of the wide expanses of stars would require other bodies for the integral work of the conglomerate. Skilled laborers, artisans, engineers, the thousand minor roles which a high-technology colony needed to live and breathe.
Her captain set course down through the atmosphere, for the spaceport at Novo Petrograd. Many of Blue Sky's subsidiary companies operated within the confines of the New Russian Empire, and her recruiters should have been hard at work pulling together the milleu of adventurers, ne'er-do-wells, and visionaries that a colony would require. It was good to be home, and many of the crew were no doubt happy to see the blue and green and brown of their homeworld once more.
After receiving clearance to land, the Sunspear set down at Novo Petrograd, and the captain gave his off-shift crew shore leave for the day. It was time to look up some old friends.

"Oh, THANK HEAVEN! If you didnt splash those rogues, I would've been sent to jail for supporting armed rebellion! Anyways, I'm transfering your pay and a bonus. You see, that pirate fleet's flagship is still in my station for repairs before I realized that they were no-good criminals, if you want. I can *cough* 'Transfer' the ownership of this fine battlecruiser to your ownership"

Week 2, Day 3
The negotiations with the Emporium had gone well. Blue Sky, having been born in the crucible of industrial chaos that was the NovoRossiyan state, was not above some less than entirely aboveboard negotiations, though the Conglomerate took care to shepherd her reputation. The addition of the re-dubbed Resolute to the corporate fleet would add some much needed firepower in case the instability in human space spread to threaten the colonies in Severian, and finding her a skeleton crew was not overly difficult. The sublight journey back to Earth to regroup with the rest of the fleet would begin immediately.
Earth Orbital Shipyard Complex
"We're looking to get our hands on an orbital skiff - yknow, the type of ship that could handle the transportation of finished goods into orbit without undue fuel cost, and some light orbital fabrication. Anything you've got in stock?" Captain Petrov of the Victorious was bored out of his mind after several hours of cards with the men while the drones worked on his vessel, and had taken the initiative to go inquire with some vendors about a construction ship for the company. It was apparent that the fleet Blue Sky was amassing would need both maintenance and the heavy equipment to keep her fighting fit and upgraded as necessary to keep up with the times - with the Conglomerate now no longer staring bankruptcy in the face, just such an investment would be logical to defray long term costs.
