Form is, to at least some extent, the function here. We're putting on a show!

I'd be fine building the body out a little bit though, and working in more bronze. We want something that can perform a good wrestling display as well as a genteel fencing match. I've edited my suggestion accordingly.

well that was worrying

I need to go work up an excel sheet for spaceflight/orbit mechanics to keep my data straight, especially considering I just spent twenty minutes trying to figure out far a spaceship operating at .45c at max capacity got when it was burning against the inertia of something going .85-90c   and how the orbital mechanics make sense there.))

Massive respect for the dedication!

I'm mostly concerned about the holding cell itself: how it contains prisoners, what weapons it has trained on us, that sort of thing. Most importantly, I want to know whether it can actually contain a creature with strong Will - we'll have to reconsider our plan if so, ideally before we get locked inside.

The sun doesn't burn us because we hold the darkness within ourself - at least, that's what we've claimed to our belfry. We've studied spells to spread our protection to others (so to speak) by casting a shadow over the land. Our belfry is unusually mobile in daylight hours thanks to our skill, which has enabled us to perform some spectacular ambushes in past.

Patient enough for my reckoning, anyway! That was handled like a warrior.

To Sloan, quietly: "What's my cover story?"

First, the immediate danger: if need be, you can likely force that airlock shut as easily as you disabled that firearm. That said, a holding cell ought to pose little threat to you, unless these marines have will-damping technology. Sloan's well-being is a greater concern - if you can, talk the Acting Captain into giving the two of you a shared cell.

Is this vessel still grounded? Learn what you can of the current situation, so you know what you can offer for help. You're in negotiations now.

These are all listed as green but deep down I just feel like they're all actually pink.

I suspect it's impossible to be chatty with someone like this without going a little pink

Nice, Grenadiere was the right pick.
