Sleeping and waking in stationary shuttle was nothing new. It had been that way for a while now, a strange routine that brought about a faint sense of normalcy planet-bound. Yet it was the familiar rocking, drifting feeling like the shuttle was in motion urged a greater sense of wakefulness in the ARC Trooper who only began to drift off after hours of lying motionless on the bunk.

Something obviously wasn't right.

As soon as the door opened, Echo made his way out into the corridor, brow furrowed as he checked his gear. "Guys?" Shifting his helmet under an arm, his free hand reached into one of his pouches to fish out his communication device, automatically tapping on the newest notification. "What's going on..."

Whale Comb to Coruscant!

His eyes widened as they fell on those words.

He recognized that name. And he wouldn't be the only one who did.

"Poe?" He called out, forcing himself into a controlled stride than an outright dash to the cockpit. "Cal? Lance? Is this some kind of trick?"

He's hearing things, sure, but any particular buzzwords he's waiting for are missing. Echo also looks out through the viewport as Cal and Poe talk, his brow set the longer he listens to the transmissions over the headset. His lips move as well, the former conversation ending to reveal that he's been talking to whoever picked up on the other end of it.

"...Yessir. They gave us clearance," he answers, meeting Poe's gaze. "We apparently have a port assigned to us." Even with the purposeful vagueness on his end, he's left with many questions as to why it all sounded so simple. It ties in with the pilot's other question, however, the curt nod given as he slips off the headset and returns it to its hook. "Looks like we'll have to."

With that, the device disappears into his pouch pocket and his helmet is slapped on, tapping Cal on the arm with the back of his hand in passing as he turns to head toward the back of the shuttle.

"Not Imperial's a plus," Cal murmurs, nodding at Poe's confirmation. His eyes flick towards Echo then as the clone reports his own findings.

"Guess I can't say I'm too surprised. The Agrii managed to to get us all settled in on some kind of resort before, somehow. And if they can get enough credits then no one's going to ask too much questions so long as there's good business."

Not that he's able to relax completely even knowing all that. It's still Coruscant, a place he hasn't seen in half a decade. He lifts his head as Echo passes him by with that reassurance, managing a small smile. at least he's in good company. Cal looks over at Poe, nodding then.

"Ready whenever you are," he says.

"Right, good work," Poe nods at Echo, considering Cal a moment before guiding them towards the port. "We can scout things out still, if you want to stay on the ship. Make sure it's really clear before we bring you in?"

He knows this must be rough on him, being back here.

Cal looks on as Poe takes them in for a landing. "...it's okay. So long as I don't use the Force or draw any attention to myself, won't be too different from back on Bracca," he says with a forced laugh.

"Although at the same time I don't want to cause any trouble if I'm with you all and recognized." He frowns as he reconsiders, finally nodding. "Maybe going with your plan might be best."
