Snip“Twenty marines could have made a pyramid that we could have walked up to get over this,” he commented as he made a lunge with Magnus’ help …
He hadn’t needed their help to top the wall, but both she and Ben reached out to help the Captain. “You know, you men could at least try to make me feel like I’m helping in some way.”
—Sage
.. his lunge took him up .. reaching for available hands which, at the crowded top of the wall, seemed that Marius and Sage were the closest …
- DagenCalvin hung down the wall farther than she did, but Sage was very limber and leaned over till she was stretched to the limit. She saw Dagen launch himself up off the XO’s body and as chance would have it, he was angled more towards her and Cal. She held her hand out to catch one of his and readied her body to catch his weight.
—Sage
Magnus turned around to look at how Thor was doing with his climb.
XO
Magnus would see that he had initially missed the Captain’s hand, or the Captain had missed his while in flight, and that he currently dangled by way of Sage having his right arm. “Good grip,” he said to her, more out of gratefulness than surprise as he floundered in the air pivoting his left arm and body to bring it in line with a second try with Marius. “If you would be so kind, Captain. I don’t mind hanging around but there are better places ..”
- DagenMarius half leaned half swung over to take part of Thor’s weight off of Sage. No matter how strong she was, she was lighter than Thor and he could find a way to pull her down - instead of her pulling him up. “Sure, sure… like I don’t know what you are up to.” He groaned as he was out of position. “Grab the girl’s hand.” He nodded. “Smart.”
Marius
“I could say you were looking at the girl rather than my hand,” Dagen replied with a grunt as his swinging left hand finally made contact with Marius’ and stabilized. Not that that was a problem, he thought, given his predilection of watching Reia often enough.
“You could say that,” Marius agreed.
With hands-on-hips Magnus looked up at the two officers pulling the third up with a wide grin on his face “What I wouldn’t give for a Holo-Imager right now” He called up them.
XO
“Dare I say that there is a history feature with the holodeck?” the helpful engineer thought to blurt out …
Holding Dagen’s weight alone put a strain on Sage’s arm. She didn’t even try to lift until Cal had a firm hold of the other one. Eventually the two of them got the engineer up on top of the wall. She had scooted behind where Thor sat now. “Since the two of you are going to have to help the XO, I’ll be taking my leave of you now.” With that said, she brought her other leg to the far side of the wall and pushed off, landing safely. “I’m fine. Let’s get Magnus over so we can continue.” While they all looked back over at the XO, Sage rubbed the muscles in her arm.
—Sage
Settled Dagen looked down. That still looked a long ways down even as it looked a long ways up from the ground. He didn’t even look as Sage slid off and landed with a soft, earthy thud. He saw his pack looking sad and crumpled with the others. It would keep. Now for Magnus. Dagen tested his balance at the top. Ben was there too. Dagen supposed it would be a matter of where Marius thought to go.
- Dagen“Come on big man… last up…”
Marius
On the other side of the wall, Sage massaged her arm. It was possible that holding Dagen’s weight on her own had strained the inner muscles of her arm. She flexed the arm and then extended it, testing for soreness. Yes, there was some but it wouldn’t force her to leave the program. She turned and looked up, wondering when Magnus would show his face over the wall.
—Sage
“Go on ahead Doc we’ll catch up” Ben replied. As he steadied himself on the wall for the next person.
Park
Magnus gave the Captain a smiling nod and took several steps back and prepared for a run. It didn’t take him long to reach the wall at his speed, he jumped up then used the wall to run up as it were and reached out a hand to grab the Captain’s large hand, outwardly he made it seem easy but he was too well aware that he only just managed not to fall on his behind.
XO
Ben smirked andcommented “now you understand why I ran to the wall ten feet back”
