Yes. You see... [He launched into as if a man wasn't just skewered in front of him. Enh. Things happened.] I'm trying to get to the upper floors. Can you help me work the elevator?

[Things one just casually asked for mid-battle. And it was a very exciting battle-- but unfortunately... Midori moved the barest fraction to avoid the slash of a machete. Grabbing the wrist the weapon was attached to he flipped the owner, easily sending the pirate crashing to the floor. Nor was the assailant given a choice to decide how comfortable he found the position, Midori's boot coming down brutally on his unprotected head. A quick snap of the arm he still had hold of over Midori's knee and there was suddenly a lot of screaming going on. ...More than priorly anyway.]

I can give you some joy for your trouble... Grab you a drink? I'd appreciate it.

[Unfortunately Midori was working right now and Koon didn't care about the fun of bloodbaths. Bummer.]
