Star-Lord has posed:
The Unbelievable Star-Lord, or as he's mostly commonly known as: Peter Quill, comes bopping through The Milano with all the swagger of a man that doesn't have a care in the world. He's got some music going and flowing from the headphones that are covering his ears. He pauses and does a bit of a stutter step before he continues making his way through the ship and on his way to the cockpit.

He spins a couple times as he starts to dance his way towards the cockpit. He shoots some finger-guns in the direction of the person he's never seen before and the DANGEROUS amount of tape that's got her bound to the ship itself in some strange way. The little sign that says: 'Worth A Lot Of Units' that's also taped to the tape is barely registered. Peter's halfway to the cockpit when he realizes what he just saw. He stops and reaches up slowly to pull down his headphones. He turns and peers.

"Um." A hand goes down to flick off the Walkman and he makes his way over towards the girl that just might be ultra. "Um?" He's not even sure what to say so he's hoping that maybe she can shed some light on why she's taped up to his ship.

Ultragirl has posed:
It's certaintly not every day one finds the buxom, blonde, Ultragirl, tied up, or in this case taped up in their spaceship. This just so happens to be one of those days, however, with Suzy currently at an akward angle against the bulkhead of the Milano, struggling a bit against the restraints, mrfles escaping her mouth, where, of course tape has been put over it. To Rocket's credit, he has done a very good job with securing her, however she is rather strong, and signs of the tape straining against her are probably quite visible, though it could be anywhere from hours to minutes before she manages to free herself.

Star-Lord has posed:
There's no time to waste! There's a hottie taped up to his ship and there's no Gamora around. Perfect time to do a little meet and greet. His confused face turns into a grin as he reaches out to grab the tape that's holding her mouth closed and he gives it a quick and mighty yank. Maybe even showing a bit more strength than a normal Terran would be showing at this time.

"I'm gonna' go out on a limb here and say that you're not a birthday present from Rocket. Am I right or am I wrong?" Quill's eyes are practically screaming that he hopes he's so wrong. Still, even while he's in this flirtatious mode of Captain Kirkdom, Quill looks like he's ready to contain this situation again at a moment's notice.

Ultragirl has posed:
There isn't that normal 'OW' someone might expect when tape is ripped from their lips, instead Quill is met with this; "When I get down from here I'm going to pull every hair from that racoons body! He'll wish his leg was all that was hurting!" She exclaims, the outburst likely answering the question posed to her. The struggling intensifies, and little rips likely start to form in that industrial space tape. Luckily, Rocket used a lot of it.

Star-Lord has posed:
"Huh. Okay, a couple things. First! He's not a raccoon. I know, I know. He looks just like one but he's not so you might want to ease up on that word. It tends to make him a little trigger happy. And considering he taped you up here instead of taking your head off with one of his cannons? Yeah, you don't want him trigger happy." Peter just explains this with all the casualness of someone in normal chat with someone else. He barely even registers her as a prisoner. He's distracted, okay? "Secondly, I can't let you hurt him. I kinda' need him around to, y'know, help me save the galaxy on an almost daily basis. So yeah, probably gonna' need a better reason to cut you down from there other than you wanting to maim one of my friends." Peter grins but has an eyebrow raised at the sight of the tape starting to rip even more.

Ultragirl has posed:
The young woman continues her struggle with the bindings, looking a bit flustered. She takes a deep breath, exhales, then says, "Your friend wants to sell me to the Kree, so they can kill me, and he can get a big paycheck." She says, "Even after I was nice to him, and carried him all the way back to his ship after he hurt his leg." She says after a few moments collecting herself, giving Peter a little look, "So that's why I'm upset with one of your friends."

Star-Lord has posed:
"Weeelllll..." Peter takes a second to look at one of the holoscreens nearby while popping a piece of Bubble Yum into his mouth. He gets to chewing while he reads the Wanted Ads. "... you do have a pretty high bounty on your head." He flips the screen around so that the captive can see it for herself. "And Rocket fancies himself a bounty hunter. So I can see his point." Peter shrugs and moves to sit himself on the table nearby. "So unless you've got a better deal, I don't think I'm gonna' be able to talk him out of collecting on a legit bounty..." Peter frowns while saying all of this, as if he actually cares about her well-being. He doesn't want to turn anybody over to people for them to be killed! That's just rude. But this isn't his collar so things are a bit more muddied.

Ultragirl has posed:
"Wow!" Tsu-zana says at that as she keeps quirming in her bonds, "How is it a legit bounty anyway?? I've never done anything to these people, and everyone I've talked to says they're evil warmongers and dictators!" She exclaims, "You must feel real good about yourself, sentancing me to death just for a few dollars!" she says, giving a dirty little look towards Quill. "I don't know why they want me, or why I'm here, or where I am. One minute I'm just minding my own business in LA, then ext I wake up on some blasted spaceship!"

Star-Lord has posed:
"Hey, relax, I'm not the one trying to pick up the units. I mean, it's a pretty huge stack of units so you can't really blame Rocket." Peter reaches up to tap his chin and frowns a bit more. "But you make a few good points. The Kree are pretty serious bad news. And if you didn't do anything there's probably a reason why they want you." Peter draws his weapon, fires off a blast at the tape to let her down and holsters his weapon all in one smooth motion. "And I think I just figured out a way we can help each other." Peter flashes one of those grins that says he's got a plan. Or, well, at least twelve percent of a plan.

Ultragirl has posed:
It's about the same time that Peter shoots at the tape, freeing one of her hands, that her other hand rips the tape, a feat that no normal person should be able to do. "And it's because some nuts think I'm some kinda chosen one or something." She says, legs easily pulling free from the wall and then she just floats down to the ground, trying to peel the rest of the tape from her. "What's your plan then, huh?" she asks finally, still yanking at that tape.

Star-Lord has posed:
"We're gonna' turn you over to the Kree."

Peter pauses for some dramatic flair with that statement. But then he grins. "Give you a moment to find out what the hell they want with you and also for them to pay us. Then, once we get our units, we'll work together to get you outta' there even if it means kickin' a little Kree ass." Peter looks pretty confident in what is probably the worst plan ever where a bunch of everything could go wrong.

"We get paid. You get to find out your origin story. And the Guardians of the Galaxy get to show the Kree that we're ready to rock 'n roll all night." Peter grins nice and big, leaning back on the table as if he had just dropped the biggest plan in the history of plans.

Ultragirl has posed:
"Uh...." Tsu-zana says with a little sigh escaping her lips, "Okay, so I help you get paid, trick the Kree, whatever, you help me back?" she asks, "And I know why they want me, I dunno like, who exactly they are, or how they found me, or whatever, so that's something that would be good to know.." she grimaces a bit, "So.. I hate to ask but.. do you have anything I could change into, and maybe take a shower? I've been in this thing for days now..."

Star-Lord has posed:
Peter hops off the table and rubs his hands together. "And Rocket says my plans are stupid. This is genius." Peter nods towards the Girl of Ultra and motions for her to follow. "You're a guest here now. Not a prisoner. You can use the Captain's Shower." He leads her off towards the ladder that leads to his own bunk. "Meanwhile, I'll fire off a hail to the Kree to let 'em know that we got what they're looking for."

Ultragirl has posed:
"Sure, that works." Suzy says as she moves to follow after Peter as he directs her towards the Captain's Shower." grimacing a bit to herself at the thought of what the shower might actually look like as she glances at the rest of the ship. "Why don't you go into.. town? Wherever it was Rocket parked his ship at, and get me some new clothes while I clean up." She suggests.

Star-Lord has posed:
Quill leans up against the wall of the door that leads into his bunk. "You go on and make yourself comfortable. I'll get word to the Kree and intercept Rocket before he comes in guns blazing." Peter looks a little bit worried. "I mean, there are some classic posters I got hanging up in there. I don't know if I want them blasted off the walls by some wascally wodent." Peter grins and is already pulling out one of his holopads and swiping through to find that bounty. "Meet you on Deck when you're all finished?"

Ultragirl has posed:
"Alright, well, you just have him tell me he's sorry and we'll be okay." She says with a little nod of her head at Quill before she steps into the quarters, "And I'll be up as soon as I'm clean." She adds, "Just back up the ladder, yeah?"

Star-Lord has posed:
"Right on up." Peter says with a bit of a salute before he grins once more at her. "By the way, you can call me... Star-Lord." With that said, Peter turns to head off towards the communications array to recorder a Neener Neender holovid!
