Ursea had been on the ship the longest, she had been recruited by Osiris after he had visited Dior. Something few Humans did, and he even went to the surface, something no normal human could every accomplish, at least for any extended period of time. She had been planet side as well, doing some hunting in the jungles of her homeland, away from the mercenary group she had joined when she was called by the Grand-Chief himself.
He had asked her to join Osiris, who had been granted rights to use her services as a Huntrak after he proved himself in unarmed combat against Kurg Gladiators. The Grand-Chief seemingly just wanted to test the Human, it had nothing to do with Osiris needing his permission, but the Human didn't need to know that it was only for his amusement. She was allowed to cut ties with her company and join Osiris's team, which the Grand-Chief personally saw to the team being officially registered as a legal mercenary group in Odekkan territory.
It was all very strange for her, she didn't know why a runt like herself was worth seeking out so specifically for some dangerous task that she felt there were far better Kurgs than her for the job. Her tune change a bit after she met Osiris, and when she saw her room. It had been furnished in a human style, with kurgish decor as well, however what pleased her most was a Vanity table filled with Human makeup and tools for it. She also had a wardrobe filled with her customized clothing and some new ones as well that fit her tastes and her body.
She became quite comfortable, making herself quite at home on the ship, in its athletic area and other facilities as well. She had made friends with Aesen as well, she found the AI strange, it wasn't something her people currently had and it was all in all a rather foreign concept to her as her people were rather suspicious of synthetic life to begin with, and the discovery of the Vis and their ideology did not help. Aesen however made her feel quite at home, Ursea had even brought her partner, her friend and Pet, Suu-Suu the large 30 ft or 9.144 m long armored Centipede, known as a Guttluok in the dense and deadly jungles of the Odekkan homeland on Dior.
Ursea was however nervous about how others would percieve her friend and hunting partner, so she kept him in her room once new crew members began to arrive, and she asked Aesen not to tell them cause she didn't want to scare them. She new he was just a love-able little crawler. but besides on a some of the more developed Kurg Colonies, creatures from Dior were rarely seen at all by outsiders, as most times encounters with aliens and Dior creatures usually ended poorly for the Aliens which are not suited for dealing with them, so they have earned a quite poor reputation. Gessat'Huntracks were even more rare in the cosmos as they typically only hunted beasts on dangerous worlds, and Kurgeshan Culture was still poorly understood by most alien species. All these factors led her to keeping it unknown that Suu-Suu was on board, but they would be working with him so she would need to introduce them soon, she was just really nervous and not just for that reason.
Now that Ailuin, some sort of Ki'Jan Doctor from what Ursea knew, was on board she figure it would soon be time for a meeting to happen. Currently though Ursea was sitting in front of the mirror of her vanity table doing her make up while watching a human tutorial on the extra-net. Suu-Suu was curled up in circular pile of grayish black, with hints of blue, chitin and clittering legs right next to her, with his head resting on her lap. She was currently in her work out clothes, she had just finished napping after using the the elliptical for an hour and showering, the clothes were simply a pair of tight workout shorts that hugged her figure, and a sports bra that managed to contain her chest as it was a special order.
"All crew members, Assemble in the meeting room for mission briefing. Thank you." She heard Aesen chime.
She immediately jumped up, which caused Suu-Suu to recoil and flutter its many armored eye-lids as it started to wake with a bubbly gurgle.
"Shotek! What am I gonna wear! its a meeting, gotta look good right?! Formal? No no...Cute that's what I want." She said to herself as she hurried over to her dresser, tossing her shorts, bra, and panties in quick succession.
She dug through her dresser, and found a new pair of panties, she admired them for their frilly edges briefly before putting them on and moving on to pants. She fished out a pair of name-brand skinny jeans that she had special ordered, they were slightly weathered on purpose in places as apparently some Humans found pants with holes to be stylish, but she also loved the pretty pattern stitched onto the butt pockets of it so she slipped it on and found a cute studded belt to go with it. She then found a deep purple bra with white frills on the edges and she slipped that on and got it strapped in. She rushed over to her wardrobe next to find a shirt, after a bit she settled a light yellow blouse with a heart shaped opening in the chest which would show off her cleavage and the yellow would be complimented by the purple of her bra.
She went over to the mirror and posed a bit in front of it, Suu-Suu tilted its head to the side a bit watching her. "Yeah, this is cute. Guess I'll leave my hair down for now." She said and tossed her long glossy dark grey hair a bit.
"Aesen...How do I look?" She asked a bit nervous, nervous enough to ask a body-less AI how she looked.
"You look cute, and sexy. You'll be fine, maybe it will distract them from the fact you have a giant dangerous insect as a pet." Aesen joked, though it seemed the first part was sincere.
"yeah..." Ursea sighed a bit as she finished putting on a pair of black designer boots that went up to her knee.
She walked out, with Suu-Suu clattering behind her, this was the first time he had been out of the room since the crew started arriving on the ship.
Aesen spoke up a bit before she headed inside, "Maybe your arrival will lessen the building tension in that room, Master Osiris will be there shortly."
The door slid open and Ursea walked inside and found an available seat, closer to where Osiris would stand and give his debriefing.
"Hi!" She said as she sat down and looked at the group, however not long after Suu-Suu began scuttling into the room, the door not shutting till his whole body was in the room. He immediately went under the table, touching feet and bumping chairs as he went to his owner.
He wrapped his body around the base of Ursea's chair and then rested his head on her lap, it let out bubbly gurgle sigh of contentment as its eyes clicked shut.
"Umm....This is Suu-Suu... My hunting Beast." She said and scratched the back of her head nervously.
