[ACTION]

[In the event anyone aboard the Bishop had mistakenly started to believe things would have been a little quieter with so many absences, well, the Atroma had other plans. So in the early morning hours, when any good and sensible person would be comfortably asleep, there is a very loud disruption to that calm as Looma is unceremoniously beamed back onto the bridge.

And, given that she's more than a little fatigued and currently plagued by a ridiculously high fever, she has to catch herself after immediately collapsing- which doesn't work out so well for the nearby communications station, as she promptly crashes into the thing with a series of angry grunts and muttered curses. If it hurt at all, putting two hands through the outer shell and into all that wiring, metal, she doesn't seem to show it- though there is a much louder bit of snarling to follow as tinny fanfare plays over the speakers overhead, and the princess tears half the console free just to hurl it at the source. It's as ineffective as it is impulsive, and with her poor aim at the moment all she has to show for it is several large pieces of tech and metal loudly clanging and bouncing around the bridge.

All of which is immediately sliding across the floor and reassembling itself by the time she staggers over to the nearest vacant seat and promptly drops herself into it. She'll deal with the many questions of why this is what follows being completely incinerated later- right now she's got to stop her head from spinning and think of some way to cool off.]

[Not surprisingly, what with Looma being remarkably stubborn by nature and all, she's not taken to the idea of bed rest well- that's no doubt going to be Laurens' problem to deal with at some point- and is trying to multitask. Namely, using her own personal comm to try and get any information on what in Tetra's name is going on, but also wandering through the ship to get an idea of what's changed.

It's going as well as you'd expect, as the giant armored princess promptly misjudges her footing and staggers her way into the side of the hall. The impact and the sound of buckling metal fills the ship and makes her initial attempt at communication a bit worthless, but she's not easily discouraged. Although she grimaces from the unexpected collision, she takes a moment to collect herself and tries again.]

Someone- explain.

[Evidently, dying hasn't done much for her conversational skills. Still, she should be dead, she's not, and that raises all sorts of questions she's not really capable of dealing with on her own right now.]

[It's been difficult since the disaster; Lance still has trouble getting his mind off of it. What he could have done better. How he could have saved more people. How he could have saved Looma.

He's never seen anyone aboard the Fleet die before, so as far as he knows, it's permanent. So suffice to say, he's more than a little baffled when he sees Looma's face on the network.]

L-Looma?!?

[alwayscomeback]

[He knew there was a good chance that Atroma would bring her back. Bring them ALL back. But he'd tried not to rest all his hopes on it. He's pretty sure his heart couldn't have taken the disappointment of her...them (her) not coming back. Still, every day, he checked the network. Just in case.

And then there she is. Stumbling and unsteady, but alive. That tugs at his chest a little more than he's willing to sit back and pull apart just yet. For now, he'll just stick with the utter joy that she's back. ]

Looma! You're- [Alive. It's so good to see you alive.] I- look, just stay put, okay? I'll come to you, explain it best I can, okay?

[He wants to fill her in, in person, but he also wants to be extra sure it's her and not Atroma planning a cruel trick. He's already racing off to a shuttle. ]

[ at the first sound of something awry on the bridge, howard dashes out to see what (or who) the culprit is. ] Uh. If you could stop destroying our ship that would be-- [ o-oh. before his wide gaze the ship is knitting itself back together again. he shuffles closer to watch the mend up close. ] Swell.

action!

[unbridles]

[JOHN LAURENS TO THE RESCUE. It'd be hard to miss that commotion, and -- well, judging by what he's seen around here, if it is Looma she's probably not going to be in the best shape. So -- at least she's sitting. That's good. It might take some time for him to get her to the med bay, but she's in one spot for now.]

--First of all, barrin' any questions about how the hell did you get back here and why are you alive, I'm gonna need to get ya to the med bay, ma'am.

[He's used to sleeping lightly, at this point. Between his years as a soldier and his time on the island, it has made sense for Sayid to not sleep too deeply.

So even though it's the middle of the night, even though he's in bed in his own room...well. The sounds of a very large space princess stumbling around the bridge and then also destroying some of it grabs his attention, hauling him out of his sleep.

Throwing on just enough clothing to be decent, he runs for the bridge, only to find....

Okay well the bridge is repairing itself. But there's something a little more important in the middle of those repairs. Well. Someone.]

Looma...

[He hadn't been entirely sure she was gone for good, having experience with Kyriakos, and with the knowledge that they'd never removed her name from the ship roster the way previous disappeared shipmates had been removed. Still. It's a shock (though welcome) to see her again.]

Are you injured?

[namisan]

Nobody really dies here. The Atroma have done this kind of thing before.

[For all of how blunt she is, because Looma will appreciate bluntness, Nami sounds subdued. But those are just the facts.]

[Video]

[candothat]

Looma, welcome back from the dead.

[He's very glad to see her alive but also very hesitant to hit her with the kind of enthusiasm he'd fling at most revived friends (sorry Looma, you're his friend now).]

This happened frequently in other universes I have been in. I'm glad that it happens here as well.

[edwinjarvis]

By god...! Is that you, Miss Looma? Are you alright?

[He knows she's furious and whatnot, but... y'know. He's not in her warpath, so he can afford to skip right to his concerns. He had been so very worried about the state of her and the others who had lost their lives... the fact that they're slowly returning has filled a small dark wound in his heart. Thank goodness.]

You should be resting yourself--!

[ginger_firebird]

[He is only mildly ashamed to admit he jumped damn near out of his skin hearing all that noise, more so to recognize Looma's voice. Anders had said, but he hadn't quite believed...

Mantis is dressed in loose fitting clothes as he scrambles over to where the crashing and smashing had come from. He can sense a general distress coming off of her, but doesn't dare go beyond that out of fear of four fists coming his way and a respect to her warnings when he first arrived.]

Looma! Stay still, we have no idea what Atroma did to bring you back. [He eventually finds enough composure to float and finds her sitting down.] We-welcome back, Captain.
