Anne looked at the Elin's surprised expression and smiled in amusement. She waved her hand as a sign to be calm as she walked behind the huge man with a small cat.
:sweden: "Don't be sorry, most of the scouts are hard to remember", she said and poked slightly fun of her own profession.
Anne nodded to the taller woman's question.
:sweden: "Yeah, I do night and day scouts in the cleansed areas, so I'm kind of a co-worker to the cleansers. That's why I know you."

Se glanced after their leader, but then decided to just follow the lead of the man, who would escort them.
:sweden: "Well, of course I would know one of the leaders. But what you were before doesn't change this situation."
Anne stretched out her arm to shake Elin's. She looked excited.
:sweden: "Now we are group members here. Nice to meet you, I'm Anne-Inga Thorvaldsen. Shortly Anne."

Elin shook Anne's hand with a quick and firm grip, grinning. "Thanks, it's very nice to meet you, Anne," she said.

Feeling a bit reassured, Elin wandered out into the hallway and joined the others.

Rúnar was concerned. Jaakko guy seemed very nervous. Either he was like that by nature, or they were about to get trash for the expedition.
He headed for the tank.
If it only needs minor repairs, he can probably be done by morning.
And who's gonna drive if you're out, smarty-pants?
Well, he'll get some sleep on the ship.
Jaakko turned to Axel and eyed him slightly with his arms crossed.
His look locked on to the huge dog though. The man clearly pondered in his mind.

:norway: "...they won't let you have anything too much, you know. The budget is what it is", Jaakko said with a straight face and glanced at the "Equipment hall" door.
:norway: "You will also need Holmquist with you-"

Loud chattering could be heard now as a woman emerged from another door and went to talk with someone at a stand next to "Equipment hall" door.
Jaakko inhaled deeply. Runar went already ahead of the others, but he stared the ones left there.
:norway: "Well, the Holmquist is there. I still warn all of you, this trip was barely funded by the Northern Council", Jaakko said with a straight face, but didn't seem to be annoyed. He just stared all of them with a doubt and shaking hands.
:norway: "Please, don't test your luck too much."

He nodded still at the Vilma's direction there and started to go after the Runar.
:norway: "Holmquist is getting to you all the set of clothing. Please, get the tank ready and have a rest in it - or try the equipment hall, whatever suits your boat."
Jaakko looked like he was ready to pass out.

Amelia turned to Jaako. :norway: "Thanks. Luckily i brought my own gear"

She shouted at the woman :norway: "Hey Vilma" as she waved, before sprinting after Runár to find her things and look at the tank.

Elin shook Anne's hand with a quick and firm grip, grinning. "Thanks, it's very nice to meet you, Anne," she said.

Feeling a bit reassured, Elin wandered out into the hallway and joined the others.

Anne chuckled to her and felt eased also. Things went better than she expected and what better than be positively surprised. She walked after Elin and looked around the hall.

:norway: "What's wrong with the damn thing?" Rúnar asked him, clearly in a bad mood.
He said D-17, right?

D... 1, 2, 3...

Jaakko flinched to Runar's tone of voice and he swiped the sweat off his own forehead. Suddenly he looked like he was very careful of what he chose to say.
:norway: "Umh well, I'm not a mechanic. Still, to me it looks pretty fine."
The man looked very hesitant right now and walked on without running his mouth again.

Amelia turned to Jaako. :norway: "Thanks. Luckily i brought my own gear"

She shouted at the woman :norway: "Hey Vilma" as she waved, before sprinting after Runár to find her things and look at the tank.

He turned his face to their leader and nodded, puffing his chest a little out after getting a thankful note.
:norway: "No problem, that's what my job in this expedition is."'
He didn't turn back to Runar again.

Little further away Vilma was having a conversation with a man close to equipment door. She rubbed her temples and sighed dramatically.
As soon as she heard her name yelled out, she turned to see the whole group of six expedition members. Her face brightened up more and a confident smile was on her face now.

:norway: "Hi crew!"
Oh, there were also Axel, Anne and Elin. Anne gave a wave to Vilma also and she hummed slightly. Truly, no matter how things will go, they will somehow manage this.
:norway: "If there's something you need, just ask me: I'm here all evening", which was unfortunate to Vilma. Well, after this she will get rest.



Jaakko finally stopped as he guided them to the tank that was pretty deep in the maintain hall. There was a van close to it, but both of them were covered in a slight rust here and there. Some parts were little dusty despite the cleaning effort that Sirus, Jaakko or Vilma had done and the tank looked like it had its glory days many years ago.

Jaakko sighed again.
:norway: "I think its plausible. It works, that has been tested."
He pointed at the van. Close to it, they could see now their luggage and other items that they had brought with them.
:norway: "Your sleeping space will be in this van. There's also extra space in the tank, but we have calculated that for the books."

He cleared his throath.
:norway: "If you need me or Sirus, we are in the controlling room. Vilma is around here."

Rúnar started a very careful, systematic inspection of the tank.
They expect us to go in this trash?
Well, it seemed to be in a vaguely working condition. But one would expect better equipment for an expedition into the SILENT WORLD!!! Especially after the last two happened the way they did.

The redhead looks in Vilma's direction and approaches quickly. The wolf, for its part, elects to go to Runar and sit next to him, before whining piteously.

As soon as they turned the corner to the tank, Amelia got a sinking feeling. Always more work, she thought to herself, rest is for the dead and dying. She started to grin.

:norway: "You guy, Jaakko was it? Have these two been tested together? And if so, why have they been unlinked since? Linking and calibrating the power steering on the rear unit will take some time"

The kitten fluffed up and hissed again. Rúnar took her off his shoulder and put her on the top of the tank.
"...shoo" he said to the dog.

The wolf's tail wagged as it whined again, giving Runar puppy-dog eyes that honestly shouldn't have been as effective as they were, considering that they were coming from an apex predator rather than an adorable puppy.

Rúnar made a face that was somewhere between so cute and please go away. He patted its head. "Shoo" he said again.

The wolf sat back on its haunches and made no motion to actually go anywhere, still panting with its tongue hanging out the side.

Rúnar decided to just keep the kitten out of its reach. He went back to work.

:norway: "You guy, Jaakko was it? Have these two been tested together? And if so, why have they been unlinked since? Linking and calibrating the power steering on the rear unit will take some time"

Jaakko glanced at the Amelia and turned to look her when she asked the question. The man crossed his arms and tightened his lips slightly.
:norway: "They have been, but I haven't been the one to test them. The base, whom we rented the tank and trailer, tested them and that they work. They unlinked them so that they can do absolutely needed fixings with the tank and the trailer."
He let his arms fall carefully to his sides.
:norway: "I know they don't look like those shiny, huge ones: but as said, these are all we could get."

Jaakko looked at the Vilma's direction. He was slightly troubled.

The redhead looks in Vilma's direction and approaches quickly. The wolf, for its part, elects to go to Runar and sit next to him, before whining piteously.

Vilma stood at the equipment hall's door, but walked towards Axel when she saw him getting closer.
:norway: "Hi Axel, what do you need?" she asked immediately and grinned.



Anne looked at the Elin and the girl with blonde braids. Other three had taken their own ways already and she yawned. She stared with a contemplating look at the tank and picked up her small backpack from the pile of their luggage
:sweden: "I recommend to get already a bed from the tank", she said to Elin and the blonde girl as a suggestion. She went inside and threw her backpack to one of the upper bunks, jumping out of the tank after it.

Anne started to go around the tank and found the man with a small cat there, as well as the huge dog.

Rúnar decided to just keep the kitten out of its reach. He went back to work.

:sweden: "Hi, do you need any help?" Anne asked casually and rubbed the huge dog.

:norway: "No" he said. The nervous idiot was right - in only looked bad. The army did a good job fixing the worst problems. What he was doing now was just some fine-tuning.
The tank should survive, as long as they don't try to drive over some massive rocks.
Or run into a building.

Anne blinked few times as she got such a short answer to her. She stared as the man fixed something within the tank and she didn't move anywhere from there.
She shifted slightly and then opened again her mouth.
:sweden: "You sure? I'm not doubting your skills, but I wouldn't mind helping. Actually, I would be really glad", she said with a smile and leant on to the tank.
:sweden: "Asking again just to be clear."

Elin waved after Anne then turned to the small blonde girl, " :iceland: Do you speak Icelandic? I sure hope so. Anyway, Anne, the lady that was just talking to us said that we should head out and get our beds ready."
