The music kept going as she moved her hands, the few things they were trying to keep up while searching for a new home was just this.... Morale and the soldiers entertained since so many of their civilians had been attacked. As the ships were fleeing the world not just destroyed or disabled but wiped out into dust.... It was not a pretty sight and Utena was moving now as she sought to cheer up what soldiers they had. A smile on her face while going through the ship she looked over some of the reports getting a nod of agreement and then getting a section for herself before rubbing her hands together. It was what she wanted and she was bringing the reports for Alva to look at, she had been there working to try and get them a place compared to others before she was back in the background of the ships crew only being noticed by the less traditional clothing on the bridge.

No one was really ok with the recent events that transpired. After all, the Imperials had had to move locations after just being on the rise because the cowardly Sith attacked when the main force of the Empire was away from Crina, and as for the people of Crina, not everyone could be evacuated, and a number of transports that were fleeing the planet had been destroyed by the Sith monsters so hypocritical and horrible. . . .Alva wished each an eternity in hell, the nether, or whatever location would bring them everlasting pain and horror as retribution for what they brought on others. Sighing, Alva looked through the files and reports that were there, waiting on her sister to bring more. Her younger sister that was, who she worried about considering Utena wasn't exactly a fighter in the family. "Thank you Utena. . . .there was no trouble I presume right?"

She looked at her and entered standing there with a smile on her face, she didn't need to always be cheery but it was more... if she just let the weight of everything sour her she wouldn't be able to work to get a smile from their men and people. "It was no problem Alva, I am just glad I am able to be useful but there is a lot to do." She stood there offering a smile though while bringing herself around for a hug and she motioned with her hands. "Come on you're not getting to read them until you hug me and smile. We can't have our princess being so stressed out she orders an orbital strike when someone refuses to do what she wants." Utena wasn't blaming and wasn't against it but personality was needed and if all else failed she could always use the bottle trick on her sister.

There was always a lot to do, Alva knew that very well and had hated that fact ever since they had striven to ensure the strength of the Empire and the safety and prosperity of their homeworld. Obviously with Crina now under Sith control, they had failed in those regards and they weren't even allowed to dwell on it. Not when they had positions so far up the chain they had to be part of the ones keeping things together. Of course, Utena didn't seem to have a problem smiling still even now. Apparently even having the wherewithal to threaten her by withholding the documents unless she smiled as well. Well. . . . .that left Alva little choice as she sighed and stood up, staring somberly at her sister before she stepped toward her and wrapped her arms around the other girl, smiling softly as she embraced her little sister. "Alright fine. . . . .but you have to help out more then silly. I'm going to need you to watch out and make sure I don't lose it with how insane things get. . . .and I want you to start getting yourself serious training. . . .I don't want you getting killed one of these days after what's happened so far."

Utena looked at her sister and as she had her arms wrapped around her she smiled nodding her head for it and kissed her sister on the cheek. "Alright I'll make sure you don't go crazy and get some serious training. I am more then certain we can roam around and get some cool stuff here in the unknown regions. We never know what we might be able to figure out." She put the documents on the desk for her her sister while she stood there. "Though I will say this we can have a lot of fun and you should come and see one of the shows with the troops. They are pretty funny guys with everything going on and I need to meet that emperor. All the princesses should be able to unite and get out castle... on the back of a giant space work."

Alva smiled a little more as she and her sister released one another, though she was tempted tap Utena on the head with the pile of files for kissing her cheek in front of the bridge crew. No one needed to get the wrong idea after all, but then again Utena didn't put much thought into such things which likely contributed to the girl's lightheartedness. "You know as well as I that neither of us have any idea what's out in the unknown regions. Heck even people not bring on Crina probably don't know, they do call it the Unknown Regions for a reason sis. As for the shows, maybe. I don't know if I'll have the time, but I'll try to make my way down to one if you give me the times for the ones you want me to see most Utena." As for the question about the Emperor, Alva would look into it, but that wasn't entirely up to her after all. . . .they did lose their homeworld, and as a result had much less pull likely.

"They might be the unknwon regions for now but we'll make them known, we'll make them someplace cool all the people want to play." She moved around though looking at the bridge crew while she went to look out the viewport. "But I shall relent and get your show times for it, though that you won't be up there singing after getting some liquor in you... Will be sad we were going to play a game the soldiers liked called poker. They made a great joke with it." Utena though now was looking at some of the consoles on the bridge while going over some of the planets. "Oh oh oh isn't that Endor.... come on can't we go and see some ewoks, they are supposed to be adorable big sis and multicolored and have these cool emblems on their chest. The soldiers tolf me all about it."

It amazed Alva how excitable and chipper her little sister could be, considering how completely opposite their older sister was. . . . .their older sister who had abandoned them. The crinan woman watched as the other girl practically pranced around the bridge while she pondered how much life would change from now on. Well, she supposed if she buried herself in her work she would hardly notice really. Failing that even, she could probably fall back on relying on Utena to keep her mind from dwelling on their loss since the hyperactive girl was all over the place. "You're going way too fast Utena, I can barely understand you if you mention a dozen things at once. First you're asking for a slumber party for the princesses and the next you want to see Ewoks. . . . .I don't think many other soldiers would want to considering Imperial history though. We can always try if you really want, and maybe you can invite them to poker as well then huh sis?"

Utena looked at her sister and she rolled her tongue around in her mouth and was thinking about it with a grin appearing on her face while she rubbed her hands together. "Oh oh oh we could have a princess poker party with lots of liquor on endor while she are laying on ewok furs." She said it and rubbed her hands together while looking at some of the ones on the bridge with herself bouncing up and down a little at the thought of it all. "We could even get some ice cream and have a pillow fight.... A pillow fight." She said the words looking at her sister lower and lower while motioning to the navigational officer. "You in charge of the thing... do it set course for Endor and the ewoks we're going to have some fun."

Hadn't it sounded like her sister had been implying she wanted a live ewok to play with. Where along the line that had transformed into the girl wanting to have a poker party on their skinned furs with other Princesses was lost on Alva. It was a wonder that Utena was truly sane and had the background she had with the things she could say sometimes. In truth, Alva only hoped it didn't get her little sister into trouble with any of the serious types among the Imperials. After all, there were plenty of stern folk who wouldn't appreciate bubbly attitude after everything. "Didn't you want to talk to the Emperor and Empress about other princesses in the party. . . .without Irena it would just be the two of us you know, though I believe the soldiers would love a chance to burn down some Ewoks. Besides, this is a warship Utena. I don't think we have ice cream onboard if you want to wait for that."

Utena looked at her sister and spoke. "We could do it all big sister never doubt the power of positive thinking and and sugar. With enough of a sugar rush we can complete all of our tasks and goals." She looked at her and nodded her head before crossing her arms. "Now come on we'll do something, something that will relax everyone and we will call it shore leave. Who knows maybe there will be some pretty ladies on the planets stranded and we can rescue them of their virginity." She nudged her elbow into one of the men on the bridge until he gave in and cracked a smile. "Ah ha there we go come on you know what I'm saying."

​No, Alva did not doubt the power of sugar when Utena was the one utilizing it. Anyone looking at her little sister right now could see how energetic she was, they could probably run a deathstar off of her right now as it stood. Maybe even solve all galactic power concerns for a lifetime? If not, then they could at least harness her as a weapon herself. Or even leave her as she was, because even Alva had to admit how uplifting her younger sister was. Even the bridge officers were putting up with her and letting her slowly get to them, something Alva appreciated considering the low morale they had had up till now. "We need to get permission for that first, but I agree that sounds like a wonderful idea Utena. Of course I would hope you and I could form a team if wooing the local ladies is our end goal for the trip. . . .mmm that sounds like fun really."

Utena looked at her sister and then had an excited look on her face while looking around at the bridge crew and nodding as she moved her hands. "Alright then we have a plan. Someone... coms officer get upon that comlink and talk to the main group. Hold aloft your mighty head set and ask for permission." Utena moved over to the coms officer as the woman was talking and she listened to it. The standard and well they did have some sway, they were the princesses much like Sai and Ayumi in the empire. Sadly what was left of their empires combined royal family and it was a great thing while she got the nod for a weekend, three days starting now. Utena looked at the coms officer as she spoke bringing her around to tthe center of the bridge and pulling at her sister. "Come on... come on all of you come on... now hold your hand out." Utena held her hand out and waited for them... "And slowly raise it to the roof as you say. "WE HAVE PERMISSION...." She touched the coms for the ship. "WE HAVE PERMISSION FOR SHORE LEAVE..... EVERYONE BE READY FOR A CAMPING TRIP." She was moving towards Alva and then turned around pointing... "And you Waid... bring smores." The man looked at her. "But I'm Ken."

 

[Ayumi Pallopides]

There was a look at her mother in law. The empress was well many things but she wasn't really certain what she was going to do when she heard the news from the bridge of the ship. Ayumi was feeling down and there was the words that they were not comforting much before she heard. "Shore leave..." Ayumi said it and it seemed strange while she was standing there heading off towards the shuttle to get to the ship that was heading off. Sai Fel as she had heard about it as well and this was going to be a princess party which got her attention grabbing a saber for her own attention and protection. "I'll head over there."

 

[Sai Fel]

[member="Alva Calvarona"]

There was a look on her face though while Sai Fel watched Kyōko eating some of the food in the bed. The holovid playing some sappy movie and the had popped corn with giggle fits of their own before the news came to her wrist pad. SHore leave with Alva and the other princesses as she blew out a breath to push a strand of out of her face while she and her friend were moving towards the door. "Come on, you can mooch off the others I guess." The girl lit up at the mention of getting more things and she was following while grabbing some things for them to take with them and some food. "Woohoo lets go"

 

[Alva Calvarona]

[member="Utena Calvarona"]

Alva couldn't help but shake her head and smile at the level of enthusiasm and improbability that was her little sister. "Right! You heard the lady, we got shore leave everyone. Utena, do we need to go anywhere to pick anyone else up? If not, where shall we be spending this little vacation you've requested for us? Just give helm the coordinates and we'll be off." Part of Alva was rather worried about things. After all, with morale so low, while a shore leave might bring people's spirits back up, there would likely be a few soldiers and crew members around who might take the opportunity to abandon ship or maybe even mutiny altogether. It was a dangerous risk to take, but Alva knew just how much the Empress cared about the people and well being of their forces, she probably should never have doubted Utena would have gotten permission.

Utena looked at her sister and thought about it as she tapped her chin. "Oh we should get all the other princesses, we can make it a sleep over with all of us there." Oh she was thinking of things now that they could do before she was dancing and moving through the bridge when she was sending out invites to everyone, the news would spread quickly she was certain and getting the other crews and captains to like the idea to do something to build morale to her was worth it. She was setting up some other things before she was going off. "We will have everything ready for us when we get there and I am thinking we find a hot springs. Now come to the land of ewoks and forests."

 

[Sai Fel]

[member="Alva Calvarona"]

Sai was proud while she and her best friend were heading over on the shuttle, a smirk on her face though while she was wearing jeans and a tank top. "ALright remember when we are down there and doing whatever they have planned to be careful. The other princesses are not like me or whatever we usually do." She still had a smirk on her face though as they were moving in the shuttle having a moment to look at Valkyrie squad's people right there with them to protect the princesses down on the planet. She wasn't certain where they were going though but loving the idea.

 

[Ayumi Pallopides]

[member="Alva Calvarona"]

Ayumi had her bags packed and was ready to go while the shuttle came out and around form the ship. Alva would be there... which meant at least one thing... there was someone she could talk with who was more serious instead of her little sister who was kind of like being hit with a plastic bottle. Eventually you'd smile but she could be annoying.... their older sister was missing and who knew where same for the other things of the empire that had disappeared. Now she was just finding ways to enjoy herself while she moved through the hallways of the ship to meet her small escort.

"So I suppose they will be meeting us in orbit then? Or do you mean we should drop planetside to set up the campsite ahead of time?" At least it seemed that way to the Crinan woman as she watched her sister rush around the bridge and begin making all sorts of arrangements and calls. Not that Alva minded either way, but if she had to guess the Imperial troops likely would want to all have a chance to take a shot at the ewoks if they had the opportunity while setting up an encampment for their short stay. "Helm, set course for Endor either way. I want a few squads put together to secure a landing zone once we're ready to head planetside as well."
