After being dismissed by Kells, Danse led Andrea up the stairs of the Flight Deck to the Command Deck as Maxson started the debriefing once he saw Danse walk in with Andrea(who was initiate during the debriefing)
"Each and everyone of you have surpassed my expectations by rapidly facilitating our arrival in the Commonwealth,You have accomplished this amazing feat without a hint of purpose or direction, and most impressively, without question"Maxson announced to the 16 soldiers including Andrea and Danse
but god! he was full of himself,but he's kinda hot but not my type though Andrea had thought
"Now that the ship is in position.It is time to reveal our purpose and our mission.Beneath the Commonwealth there is a cancer... known as the Institute, a malignant growth that needs to be stopped before it infects the surface"
Andrea zoned out for the remaining time Maxson was babbling on as she leant against the wall
"ad victorium" Elder Maxson dismisses the other 16 soldiers before dong some sort of salute thing,before the 16 soldiers do the same before leaving the room to just Danse, Andrea and Maxson
"You must be Andrea,correct?" Elder Maxson turned around as he poured himself some bourbon before sitting down on one of the couches that were in the room and gesturing her to join him
"mhm, And you must be the Elder, though you look too young to be in such a high ranking position" Andrea perplexed as she raised a brow as she sits down
"Don't let my age fool you. I may be 20 years young but I put up a fight" He coldly replies
"Is that so? so who would win at an arm wrestle? you or a 227 year old woman such as myself?" she jokes
"227 years old? how is that possible?" Maxson questioned
"I was cryogenically frozen for 200 years in Vault 22 before the bombs dropped in October 2077" she stares at her feet"which is more of a grave now"
"Vault 22? huh, haven't heard about that one yet"Maxson lets out a sigh before he offers her a drink, but she declines it.
" I should probably introduce myself to Procter Quinlan,Procter Ingram,Procter Teagan and what not" Andrea sighed as she stood up
"Farewell then,Ad Victorium Knight"
"Ad Victorium Elder"Andrea Responds
As Andrea and Danse left and was on the main deck, Andrea stopped and looks up at Danse"Can we go to Knight-Captain Cade, i need to give him an update?"
"Of course we can, just let me put my power armour away"Danse responds as his eyes give off a soft twinkle
"I'll wait here for you" she smiles as he nods before he practically stomps to the power armour station
While Andrea wait she injected Buffout into her arm again to feel somewhat better when she finished injecting herself Danse comes back and gives her a small smile that just made her heart beat fast
was she crushing?
was she falling in love with her mentor and friend?
"Ready?"Danse asks, looking almost deep into her eyes
"Y-Yes Paladin"Andrea stuttered as she started walking to the clinic part of the Prydwen.
Knight-Captain Cade was attending to another Knight who was brutally injured but a Mirelurk Queen, Cade was even surprise that the Knight even survived the attack
"Knight-Captain Cade."Andrea cleared her throat
"Knight Andrea! How are you?" Cade cheerfully responds,as the injured Knight jumps at his response
"I'm good, just thought I'd give you an update since i last met with you." Andrea spoke getting straight to the point"I'm still getting nightmares but i'm waking up in cold sweats and my heart rates been speeding up and the chem known as Buffout has been reducing it through the day"
"Don't get to addicted to the chem, i understand that it helps you mentally but it can have it's side effects which could be fatal,but thanks for letting me know I'll note it down on your file, Ad Victorium Knight and Paladin" Knight-Captain Cade dismisses as he saluts the two of them as the do the same before the go to all the Proctors for Andrea to introduce herself before the two of them went to the mess hall to eat.
While she eat a perfectly persevered Salisbury Steak , Danse just ate some Fancy Lads Snack Cakes

Andrea was strong and independent but when alone she can be the saddest person you'll ever discover but once you do you'll discover the tragic reason behind tough exterior.
Andrea held up a pretty high wall around herself internally and never opened up to anyone and Danse was lucky enough to be the first one to be opened up to.
After Andrea and Danse finished eating they flew back to Red Rocket which has Andrea's home before the Brotherhood came to the Commonwealth.

When Andrea got to Red Rocket she was instantly greeted by Dogmeat
"hey boy , did u miss me?" Andrea smiled at the German Shepherd as she sat on the dirty floor giving him tons of attention
"Seems like he missed you " Danse spoke for the first time since they were off the Prydwen
"he was the first one i met who didn't judge me he's like my best friend" Andrea smiles up at Danse before she kissed Dogmeat on his head before she got up and walked into the Red Rocket" there's a power armour station for you to put your armour Tin Can"
Danse followed her inside before he found the Power Armour Station as he stepped out he looked around the place and took in how functional it was like the nuclear war never happened
"how is this place soo tidy?" Danse perplexed
" I met this Mr Gutsy robot that i reprogram to be more domestic to take care of the place and Dogmeat whilst i was away" Andrea turns to look at him after putting some radroach meat in the dog bowl for Dogmeat
"You can reprogram robots?" Danse raised his brow
"well with the help of a holotape i found in Trinity Plaza i was able to use it to hack the robot and completely change its function"Andrea said
"Proctor Quillan would be impressed" Danse confidently remarks
