"Thank you, Sir Phobos" Coy says

Jess goes to make sure everyone is ok... but she doesn't' have to be the first person there.

"It's a break thru, a Furking BREAK THRU" A happy nocker enters in with a thermos

Ok, that's one nocker....

And lastly, Tito Woden enters with Symond "And we have a prize"

"Coffee Punk IS the prize" Symond declares

All three, and walking under their own power. Good. Jess exhales a breath she didn't know she was holding.

They look a bit roughed up, a few bruises, a couple of burns, but they're triumphant

Coy nods "Freeholder ,we dropped off the Chimera and ..well, we found the Coffee Nebula"

"I'm glad to hear it, and moreso to see you have returned looking well. You'll take the Balefire tonight. I'm eager to hear your stories but it can wait until you've had a moment to refresh yourself."

"My thanks" Coy says "But we do have a treasure to give the hold , much is a blur on how we got it, but your mercy apparently impressed someone."

"It was your efforts that freed the chimera." Jess points out.

"Yes but we were told to bring this to you. Apparently you know her cousin?" He holds out a box.

From within, a voice goes "Jo jo" but in a feminine tone

Jess blinks, nonplussed. "Jojo?" she takes the box.

"I think it might be a Jo-sephine, or Jo-Anna" Coy says "She makes coffee"

And yes, while a bit different, this is clearly similar to Jojo! It bounces in the box excited to get to work

"Hey there." Jess smiles, greeting an old friend "Listen, let me introduce you to the kitchen ladies before you get going, ok?"

"Jo jo!" She replies amiably.

Coy chuckles "As for Symond, she's got this crazy break through using coffee for Steam punk fuel"

"It's not crazy, it's a break through!" Symond says "I'm going to my work shop!"

"Welcome home, Symond!" Jess calls to her.
