Santiago navigated through the party guests like a cloaked ship in an asteroid field; she was never the social kind of person, expecially since her early life and education took place in the underground levels of Crete City. Ever since she became a ship captain, she did her best to improve her manners and acquire a better image, but deep inside, she would always remain the same person, the same young girl burning with fury that led the Jade Falcons gang on a raid to a food storehouse, to steal enough provision for the next winter. Looking around herself, gazing at the luxurious estate, the expensive furniture, the people in elegant dresses, she thought once again, as she did many times in the last year, that this was not her place.
She took a deep breath and shook her head to wipe away the gloomy thoughts, and noticed the newly appointed major Dan Beckz looking for familiar faces; a small grin appeared on her lips as she carefully walked around him and sneaked on him from behind.
Santiago:*with her best "You're in big trouble, recruit!" tone* Major Beckz! What are you doing? *she stops and prepares to admire his reaction*
